Diary Entry 02: Before it Starts…

Date: UNKNOWN

Time: 00:13

Okay, you'll have to forgive me for going off topic right now. And yes, this is in fact very short of an entry. But this has to be done. I almost ended up going to skip this section. Shame on me, eh? [Clears throat] It's a few minutes after midnight, and I am still trying to understand what in the world was going on. One minute I'm home, in my room, after a disastrous surprise party for my birthday, and the next minute I'm somewhere else. Call me crazy, but this is what was practically going off in my mind at the moment. Call this half of part 1 of my crazy adventure. If you want to call it that.

According to what I was told. I was the someone that somehow entered into their property without the security going off. And then I had to explain myself as to how I got there, and why. All while I was somewhat not feeling well…

"… What?" I found myself speaking out from out of nowhere. I didn't understand it. But it was probably from me being passed out the whole entire time. When I opened my eyes I saw a flash from outside. Then a few seconds later, a loud boom sound raged in the air. It was Thunder, and from the way that it sounded, it wasn't too far away from where I am. Speaking of which…"Where am I?" The after effects of the storm began, and the rain kept pouring in even more. It must to have slowed down a bit, and the restarted up again.

I slowed turned around and looked the door. Light was pouring out of it, since it was cracked open. It was indeed confusing, but I take it that whatever the heck I am, somebody must still be inside the place. I attempted to move and felt a sting near my abdomen. After placing my right hand on the area, I can feel that its covered with something. I pulled off the covers to see that I was completely bandaged up as I feared.

What's going on? Just where the hell am I?

I began thinking clearly for a bit. This is just too crazy. How long have I been out? Looking around this room is something that I felt I needed to do, before anything else. So I slide out of the covers and made my way on to the floor. It wasn't so hard to do, but it was better then my attempting to get out of it by leaning upwards. Now I'm seriously questioning everything.

By crawling towards the desk that had a few things useful, I climbed up and checked what I could. It was hard to read in the dark. But if I turn on the lights, I might end up getting caught. Who knows what type of people I'm dealing with here!

Using the light from the moon, I was able to see some things. But it was completely useless because I began to hear voices outside of the room.

"… I don't understand what is the problem of helping a poor girl out in the rain." It's that boy again… "That is not the point, Chris. You know I don't like random strangers in this house. Who knows where that girl is really from…" I frowned the moment I hear a grown mans voice enter the scene. That must be the boy's father. "Oh come on, father! She looks really nice to me. I don't think she can hurt us." A young boys voice spoke out in protest. "You know what dad, I told them that this wouldn't be a good idea." And the last person to talk was a teenage boy sounding like he was being the adult around here. Guess it's no different in this world. It was then I realized something…

This world…

I'm I in a different world?

How did my brain come up with that idea?

Man I wish somebody would tell me…

I removed myself from near the door at the desk and tried to get myself back into bed otherwise they may come in and suspect something. I don't want to know what the guy might do to me if he sees me. What was that kid even thinking of dragging me in here, if he knew his dad was going to be ticked!

Then I didn't realized that somebody was walking to this room. The door opened immediately and the ceiling lights came on, which immediately blurred my eyes! "What the…? What you doing out of bed, young lady?!" I turned around and gasped at who I saw. Now beginning to fear for my life…

I gulped when I see a man in his 40's looking down at me. His cream colored skin looked more aged, but he was indeed more dignified looking than most men that I know. With long blond hair tied in a ponytail. And glasses that covers is auburn colored eyes. But his expression looked of that of an upset father. I was shaking. I could feel it. I never fault so vulnerable before in life. You would think you would only know if you were abused, or been kidnapped from your home. Yeah…I think 'kidnapped' feels more appropriate right now…

He then sighed exasperatedly and frowned when he saw what was happening.

"My word, you've really have been through a lot, haven't you. Tell me, are you an orphan by any chance?" He questioned gently this time. I just reminded silent. Bitting my lip almost every time I have to hear his voice. "Or maybe you ran away from home. That could be my only guess…" He came over to me ever so slowly. But all I did was moved back away from him on the floor. However my back hit something hard, and that was when I realized that it was the bed I was found laying on!

"You don't need to be afraid. No one here is going to harm you." He came down towards my level. But I kept my guard up. I didn't know what he was planning to do. "My name is Byron Arclight. And I believe that you already met one of my eldest sons, Chris." He looked towards the side, and this suddenly caught my attention. I looked towards where he is looking at, and see the same boy that saved me earlier.

The boy called Chris looked extremely upset about something. But what, I couldn't tell. Yet he didn't say anything. It's hard to believe that their related. "Now why don't you tell us your name, now that you know ours?" I froze at the thought and looked down at my shivering hands. What should I do? Should I tell them my real name, or should I give a fake one? I need to come up with something quick, because the longer I take. They'll know I'm lying. And who knows what they are about.

I hear the man called Byron sigh loudly and got up from his spot. And I feared that he figured that he wasn't going to get anymore answers from me.

"I understand if you don't want to disclose anything. But unless you say something, I cannot help you." Was all he said before Byron left out of the room. Leaving his son and I as the only ones left. I was just stunned. What just happened? I didn't say anything. I didn't know what to say. And then he just got up and left? Maybe I am overreacting. Perhaps they really are nothing more than just a normal family. Then suddenly the boy named Chris turned around as well and began to walk out of the room.

I felt the need to panic and tried to get up but almost fell. "Please don't leave me…" I begged in a whisper as my voice trembled. This immediately caught the long haired boys attention, and he turned around surprised. My body however couldn't move. And I didn't know what he would think of me. I mean, I didn't speak before to his dad, and now I feel like such an idiot. I'm so scared…

"Do you want me to help you get into bed?" He suddenly spoke with kindness after a few minutes. I looked up at him, with tears streaming down my eyes. With one nod, he came back and placed his arms around my body. I stiffened immediately, not knowing how to react to this. He sensed my discomfort and removed himself from me. "Is something wrong? Did I hurt you?" He asked out of concern. I just shook my head very slowly. I was feeling dizzy. All of this talk is making me want to just give up and die.

Then I felt his hand on my forehead as if he was checking my temperature. "You do seem a bit hot. You must be catching a fever." He removed his hands and stood up immediately, looking back at me in worry. "Please don't move, I'll get some help." He rushed out of the room, and can hear him talk to his dad again in the next room over. He sounded concerned. "…go see if you have any old clothes that she can change into, until we can figure out what to do. Thomas, I want you to go into the kitchen and put on some soup we have in the fridge." He said lastly. "What can I do father? Can I do something to help?" And innocent little boy asked.

The father chuckled and finally said something. "Yes, you can little Michael. Why don't you go get us a cloth and a bowl and fill it with cool water from the bathroom sink. You think you can do that for me?" Byron asked with a parents warmth in his voice.

Parents….

I miss mom and dad…

I was shedding more tears just thinking about them. And Alesia too! I should have been more nicer to her if I have suddenly died and won't come back!

Somebody came rushing inside, and I see that it is once again Byron, who looked very concerned. He came towards me and bend down again, and this time he felt my temp. "You're spiking up a fever. Do you feel any dizzy?" He asked me. I nodded very slowly and he got a handkerchief and began wiping my face and my tears away. "You should change out of those clothes." He made a comment. I immediately blushed at the thought.

I shook my head vigorously even though that just made my headache worse. The grown man frowned at this, as he didn't know what else to do. The boy named Chris came immediate and got a few clothing that he didn't need. "Here, she can borrow some of these." He spoke to his dad before noticing the situation. "Is something wrong?" He questioned. "I suggested that she changed out of the clothing she is wearing, but she just declined. I don't know what could be the problem."

Um… I'm a teenage girl whose in a house full of guys! Please, is there any female in the house that can help me?

"Maybe the problem is not changing. I don't think she feels comfortable enough to change without another female present." Chris offered. Yes, Thank you! Man your son is smart about women! "I can understand that. But all the maids are gone for the day, and it's pouring rain outside. There is no way I'm sending somebody to come here in this dangerous weather." He said sternly. Byron then turned to me. "If we help escort you to the bathroom, do you think you can handle it on your own?"

I bit my lower lip and began thinking about it. I may not have a choice. These people are trying to help me. I should at least be grateful for that. I think I can handle it. I looked back to them and nodded. Byron nodded in response and then came towards me himself and lifted me up in his arms without a problem. He did it so quickly, I didn't even noticed that he was carrying me, until it was too late. Chris followed him out of the room, and I was stunned to see the place. It was a mansion.

A little boy also with strange hair had mostly a dark pink colored hair with brown under tone, and large green colored eyes. He looked up and smiled really wide. Aw, he is so cute!

"Father! I got the things you've asked! Is she sick?" He asked with concern. He reminded me so much of Alesia when she was really small. I don't know how to react to all of this. But Byron took me to their bathroom. And Chris showed me how to run their shower and bath tub. He got out some towels and placed them on top of the clothes he got for me. When both father and son left. I can hear the little boy, whom I now realize is called Michael.

So then who is this Thomas guy?

"Hey! Where's the girl, and why nobody told me where to put the soup at?!" I gasped when I saw another boy, about a little older than Michael, but no older than Chris is staring at me. His wide eyes gave me the chills, until I realized that I was almost getting undressed. And I forgot to close the door!

…Just kill me now…!

That was just really embarrassing to have to go through all of that. But to get straight to the point. Yes, he almost saw me like that. And yes he was scolded for it. Sadly, both father and sons had forgotten to close the door behind them. So they couldn't put all the blame on me. In fact, their was no blame.

As to what to do now after all of that. I still have no idea. I still need to figure out how this all happened. What do you think? But then again, why am I even asking such a stupid question to nobody who's not even going to read this except me. I hope…

Cassie Y.M Bennet

Thanks to everyone that was able to read the debut chapter. Sadly it wasn't a lot of people, and I can understand that. But hopefully the 3rd entry would be interesting. Matter of fact, skip the last sentence. It IS going to be interesting. And you'll see why! ^^

It wasn't much Chris/V x Cassie action going on, but there is a reason for it. They didn't rush in the growing relationship. And now dedication to the reviewers!:

Zexalloverforever39: Thank you very much for the review! I'm glad you love the title, as I know that its extremely important to any story. And yes, I can agree. It is really hard, and even for me as the writer. I don't want it to happen, but her story must be told as much as possible. And it will all make since as you continue to read hers and Alesia's journey.

yugiohchamp4136: Thanks again for reviewing and don't worry. This is a response to both this story and the last review you wrote. I'm sorry to forget to add your dedication in the last chapter. I was trying to get everything in, and you did cross my mind, but it was too late! :(

Overall don't worry. And thanks once again. Do well in school, and I pray you have a wonderful school year! I still enjoy your skits! ^^

De hearts 26: Yep, hard to believe that is what happened. But because she was heading of age, her power was soon growing inside of her, and her true home was calling for her to come back. Cassie doesn't know how to duel, so she will learn eventually as the story progresses. As I'm sure you remember her carrying a duel disk when she is older.

But we'll never know. I'm still trying to figure out where this is going. We'll have to see next time.

Everybody else, thanks again for reading and don't forget to review your thoughts! I look forward to hearing them from your POV.
