'Here I am

Once again

I'm torn into pieces

Can't deny it

Can't pretend

Just thought you were the one

Broken up deep inside

But you won't get to see the tears i cry'

2. Injuries

No-one had come yet. I didn't expect anyone to. No-one cared, or even knew who I was. The only one I could rely on was Keigo and he'd abandoned me. It hurt!.

It had been so long since I had seen anyone...no teachers, students. Not even the principle looking for latecomers. No-one. I had pulled myself into a sitting position after a while, and I sat, gripping my elbows, ignoring the jolts of pain my arm and leg were giving me. I could deal with fracture pain, I could deal with the mottled bruises that will cover my neck and back. I could handle the horrible taste and sense of warmth of the blood that fell from my cuts and dripped down my face. I couldn't handle the pain that was tearing my heart apart from the inside. A feeling of numb pain swept through my whole body in waves, crippling me. A lone tear fell down my cheek.

"Mom" I sobbed. "Please...help me". I'm alone.

CRACK!

I almost jumped out of my skin as a shock of thunder rumbled across the blue sky. Utterly bewildered by the strange abrupt change of weather on a day like this, I began to try and climb down the tree and screamed as the pain in my leg began to sharpen. My toes nudged against something at the base of the tree, making me squeal, but reaching down I could feel it was my school bag, which Keigo must have left behind. I picked it up and hugged it close to me as a flash of red lightening ripped the sky.

Wait...red? I looked back to the sky standing at the base of the tree, my heartbeat pounding in my ears. Suddenly I felt my feet give way and I stumbled onto the floor. I gasped as a strange feeling of being pulled apart from the inside erupted from deep within me. My blood began to boil, my heartbeat being the only thing I could hear, blac spots and strange lights flickering across my vision. And then as if a hook had been placed in my stomach I found myself being yanked down as the lightening cracked right through the ground beneath me, burning my retinas. I shrieked as I felt something burn my neck and I kept falling...

falling...

falling into the dark abyss.

this chappie i don't think is as good as the first but the straw hats are coming soon so yay! its incredibly short this SHORT. they will be a lot longer than this i promise. i know i made it a bit weird, her sitting in a tree crying and feeling abandoned and then 'falling', but this one is better than my first version. that one was crap. stuff like she was in hospital then 'falling' and keigo being a git and a bigger character, i like this version better, even if it is incredibly SHORT. and i know in the first her injuries were really serious but i made it so she's just really hurt, cos if she had like fractures and broken bones she wouldn't be much help.
