CHAPTER TWO

Falling from a Memory

There were screams, there were shouts, there were curses, then….there was a blackout…Ralph's whole world went black for the second time in his life.

"Are you alright?" Ralph opened his eyes and sat up. His head hurt dreadfully as he ran his fingers through his hair.

"Oh, ye-yeah…ow…" Ralph finally looked up to see who was talking to him. For some unknown reason Simon's face rested there for a moment before Ralph finally saw who it really was. After blinking about four times, the kid who'd sat with him on the plane came into view. He didn't show any concern, but he was kneeling down next to him.

"That's good," Still no emotion. The boy stood up, and extended out a hand. Ralph quickly took it, seeing that this boy probably wouldn't show any type of kindness to him again, and maybe….Ralph really didn't know; his body did it for him as if it was natural. The boy didn't smile, but he didn't get go of Ralph's hand. The boy pulled at his hand and dragged Ralph along with him. Ralph didn't know where they were going, but decided not to object. They walked in silence for about 5 minutes as Ralph let the younger boy lead him around.

"Your hand is cold." Ralph unexpectedly heard the boy mention. Cold? The boy didn't even glance back at him as he bent down past a branch, Ralph had to follow and get down much lower then the little boy had. The blonde waited for him to successfully get around the branch.

Ralph turned to the boy, who stared at him intently, "Your hand is cold." He repeated as if he wanted Ralph to say something. Ralph was yet again shocked at the comment. He cleared his throat.

"It is?" Ralph asked. The boy's hard stare almost made Ralph feel like he was naked in front of a thousand people. The boy slowly nodded after a moment, as if thinking, though Ralph wasn't sure if this boy needed to think.

"You're like Akina."

"Akina?"

"Yes." Ralph was quiet for a few moments before he spoke up again.

"What's your name?" He suddenly winced at his own question…

"What's your name?"

"Ralph."

Piggy…

The boy noticed quickly, but said nothing, "My name is Takeo," He finally answered, "Yours is Ralph, right?" Ralph was so out of it he didn't ask himself how the boy knew his name, they'd never met before.

"Yeah," Ralph answered. Takeo tugged on his hand for him to move foward and before Ralph knew it, they were walking again. "Takeo?"

The boy stopped at his name being called. He turned to Ralph who was looking at him. The eyes he saw showed strength and courageousness, yet there was also some sadness, loneliness, and fear in those eyes as well. Takeo hadn't had the chance to look into the other blonde's eyes long enough to see what traits Ralph owned; now he knew.

"Yes?" Takeo finally asked seeing the boy wouldn't continue until he asked.

Ralph swallowed. What was he going to say? Why did he say his name anyways? "Wh-what kind of a name is that? I've never heard that one before…" Ralph found his excuse stupid, though he wasn't sure what Takeo thought, you couldn't read that kid. He didn't even flinch, twitch…heck…Ralph wasn't even sure he blinked…

"Oh," Takeo said, although he didn't sound surprised or shocked and his face didn't make any expression. What. So. Ever.

Suddenly they heard a crashing sound as loud as a gunshot. Ralph grabbed his head with one hand as if in protection, Takeo didn't move, "What was that?" Ralph asked looking around.

"We need to find the others," Takeo declared ignoring Ralph's question. He started walking, but with their hands still intertwined Ralph also had a say in this. He yanked Takeo backwards. The boy made no effort to struggle and let himself collide into Ralph.

CRASH!

Both boys fell onto the ground made of sand.

"I'm sorry!" Ralph said quickly. Takeo had landed on Ralph's stomach and Ralph just completely hit the ground. Sand had soared and was now all over both of them. "It's alright." Takeo assured. "No, no!" Ralph argued back, "That was mean of me!" Ralph was taken back as he saw a small, small, hardly visible smile crept across the unemotional boy's face. It vanished quickly and Ralph was left to speculate if the blonde really had smiled or if the other blonde was just hallucinating.

"You have good leader traits," Takeo suddenly said. That hit Ralph hard.

"What? No!!" He shouted standing up pushing Takeo off in the process. Takeo just watched the courageous boy start walking in a random direction. Takeo stood up quickly and followed after him/

"Everyone else is in the other direction." Takeo informed catching up with the stubborn 14 year old. Ralph kept his eyes on the road. "Well, that's too bad…" Takeo grabbed his hand, Ralph froze automatically. He slowly turned his head to look at him.

"What?" He asked just as slowly. Takeo tugged Ralph's arm in the direction he had said earlier would lead to the others. Ralph angrily shook his head, "NO!! I'm NOT going that way!!" He bawled. Takeo yet again pulled at his hand…as if Ralph had never whispered a word.

"We need to go to the others." Takeo said. Ralph unnoticeable bit his bottom lip, "We all need to be there," Takeo continued, "We can't let them think we're dead."

"How'd you know my name…?" Ralph asked as he felt his feet start moving and they were headed towards "the others". It had finally occurred to him that Takeo knew his name.

"I've seen you before," He answered quietly

"Oh…" DUH!! Ralph mentally hit himself, "Is that how you know…um… Akeeya… or do you two talk every now and then?" Takeo couldn't help but chuckle a little…just a tiny bit.

"Akina." He corrected. Ralph blinked before laughing.

"Oh, right, sorry." Takeo said nothing, but nodded. Ralph found himself liking the boy. Maybe Takeo wasn't that bad…? Ralph looked down at their clasped hands. Why…did he let the younger boy hold his hand like that…? It would be uncomfortable to almost anyone; including Ralph, but for some unknown reason he let the boy hold it.

Ralph looked up to see branches and leaves of trees all around. Just like the other island… Ralph finally looked back ahead. They were getting closer; he was starting to hear voices, alot of them…and suddenly…Ralph felt very unnerving. It was as if he'd never been around people before. He could tell Takeo sensed his nervousness; that boy seemed to know everything…and for once…Ralph was glad he did. It kind of reminded him of Piggy…

"HEY!!!!! LOOK!!! THERE'S MORE SURVIVORS!!!" He suddenly heard a voice scream, literally. Scream. Ralph yet again bit his bottom lip as they approached a big group of kids. This was it…then Takeo glanced at him…and smiled…
