Prologue
Have you ever felt a tiny tickle at the back of your neck that makes your
stand on end? Have you ever felt like you were being watched, while you
were walking down that back alley next to your house, but you turn around
and no ones there? That was me. Every time you think you're alone... your
not, I'm there watching and waiting till the time is right.
Chapter 1
Running, running through the dark, dirty back alleys of New York. Garbage piled against walls of buildings, were people don't exist dwell. Focusing on what's in front of me, I se a person running. For some unexplained reason I get excited, I feel like the world is my own and nothing or no one can stop me. They glance back and stumble, allowing me to gain more ground. Why, why am I running? The reason comes to me almost instantly; I'm chasing this person, stalking them, revealing in the joy of the hunt. They are my prey. My victim. They are starting to get tired and are starting to slow. I can all but smell their stench, a mixture of sweat, fear, and blood. As I draw near, I reach out...Jerking awake, Hiei realizes that was just a dream, the same one he's been having for almost a year. It's always the same person and place, yet he can never see their face. The dream is always at night and always in a New York alley. The thing that makes his dream so weird, so unforgettable, is the fact that he seems to know the person. "this is getting ridiculous, I need to get some sleep before school." Hiei thought "the principal said that if I end up in her office one more time for falling asleep during class, I'm gone."
