The next day was much worse than the day before. It poured rain. Lightning crashed in the sky. Thunder roared and could be heard miles away. Only idiots would be out when it was like this. Wait, what this! Some one is out! The person had pink hair and seemed to be crawling on the sidewalk. It was a girl. The rain was heavy and she was soaked. Standing up, she tried to walk to a bench that wasn't that far. Reaching it, she laid down. Cuts and bruises covered her body, she was freezing cold, and wet. O.k. let's take the story back 30 minutes ago.

30 minutes ago

Mariah sat on her bed listening to music on her portable CD player. Her brother was out again, probably partying. He says that she's to young to go with him. She doesn't want to go anyway! Ever since their mom and dad died he had been acting different, staying out late and hanging with the wrong people. She was just the worried sister that he didn't pay any attention to.

All the stuff she had was blue, surprisingly. The only reason she wore pink while she was blading on t.v. is so her clothes wouldn't clashes with her hair. She was just writing in her diary about what happened the other day with Tala. She was listening to Mariah Carey, We Belong Together. Her favorite song.

Then her door slammed open. She looked to it. Lee was standing there soaking wet. "Mariah!" he had an angry expression. Not again. she took off her head phones and jumped off the bed. "Lee please don't do this!" she begged. Soon, she couldn't back up any more, she had run into the wall. He always does this. He smelled like beer."What is wrong with you Mariah! How could you do this to me!" Tears started to come down her light brown cheeks.

"Lee I didn't do anything!" she was forced into a corner. Then she felt a cold wet hand on her face. "Lee please!" she cried out, but the hits didn't stop coming. The black haired neko-jin kept attacking while shouting things at her. Mariah couldn't take it. She had reached a phone near by. No, she wasn't going to call any one. She smashed it against Lee's head. "Ah!" he screamed. This was Mariah's chance to run. Tears streamed down her face. She couldn't take it any more she ran.

No body in the hotel seemed to care that she was crying. She ran out into the street. No one would be able to tell she was crying now. Thus, brings us back to the present.

Now

The pink haired girl could barely keep her eyes open. Lee had punched her in the head a couple times. The last thing she remembered seeing is blue and red blurs, the black.

The next day was dark. The sky was cloudy and it was sprinkling rain outside. Mariah opened her eyes. She tried to sit up, but it hurt. Rubbing her eyes, she could hear yelling. She was no longer wearing the clothes that she had worn the other day. She gasped when she noticed all she had on was a huge t-shirt and her underwear. She looked around the room. There were 3 paintings of her by the closet, which was in front of the bed.

She struggled to get up and walk over to them. One painting was when she was nearly getting blown away in the storm. Another, had her smiling walking in the rain under an umbrella. The last one was from last night when she has pasted out on the bench.

"Oh, my God!" she gasped. Does the guy stalk me? He could be some pervert that paints pictures of me for a living! she gasped again. Where are my clothes? He changed my clothes! she was thinking all kinds of weird thoughts until she noticed the yelling again. Slowly she walked over to the door and cracked it open.

The yelling seemed louder. "No we are not keeping it!" a voice shouted. She walked to the stairs and walked down. "She is not an it! She's a..." "It!" shouted the first voice. Mariah kept walking down stairs until people came into view. "No, she's a neko-jin!"

Mariah's POV

They're talking about me! "No way! We already don't like her!" shouted a blue haired boy. "Bryan, you're on my side, right?" Tala asked a lavender haired boy. He scratched his head. "I... guess." Tala smirked. "See, Bryan's on my side and we say she should stay!" The blue haired boy folded his arms, "Well, Spencer's on my side and we say she nothing but a loud mouth wanna-be cat girl!" I am not!

I stepped off the stairs into their view. They just stared at me. "Mariah, you're awake." Tala walked to me. I don't exactly feel comfortable around all of these boys. I am only wearing a t-shirt."How about you come with me to the kitchen." he said nudging me to where I think is the kitchen. Should I follow him? My feet said yes, my mind was screaming 'what's going on!'

The kitchen looked nice. For boys they take good care of the house. "Are you hungry?" he asked politely. I was about to say no when my stomach growled. I could tell I had a light blush on my face. What is with my body not listening to my mind today. Tala smiled, "I'll take that as a yes."

He looked in the fridge. "Wow, all we have is... cereal, cereal, and... cereal. Which one do you want?" he asked playfully. O.k. I'll play along. "I'll take the second one." we laughed. I don't know why, but it feels like I've met him before, like I know him. Then the lavender haired boy came in. "Tala, Kai said he's gonna call Ray to come get her." I'm standing by him, he could have told me that. Wait, who's Ray?

"Are you talking about me?" I ask him. He shook his head, yeah. "Who's Ray?" him and Tala exchanged weird looks. "You know, Ray, the guy you grew up with." Tala tried to help me along. I'm trying to remember, sorry can't think of any Rays. "Are you talking about my brother, Lee?"

Tala shook his head. "Long pony tail, always wears a head band with the yin-yang symbol." I shook my head, "I'm sorry, I just don't remember." That's when this tall blond guy came in with the blue haired boy. "I called Ray." he told Tala. "Can you please tell me who Ray is?" I ask the blond guy.

"What do you mean who Ray is?" he asked. "The guy you grew up with." he answered before I got to talk. I growled, "That's what they told me! It's not helping!" I yell at them. "You battled with him, at the Asian tournament." the blue haired boy spoke. "O.k., o.k. let's forget about this Ray guy for a sec and you tell me who you are cause I'm like lost." There they go with the exchanging weird looks again.

"You mean you don't now us?" the blue haired boy asked. "Obviously." They're staring at me again. "Did you hit your head last night?" the guy, I think his name is Bryan, asked. "No." I answered. "What exactly happened?" Tala asked me. I felt like crying remembering what happened. I looked down at me lap, trying to hide my watery eyes. "Sometimes... my brother gets drunk and... he hits me, I know he doesn't mean to," I still don't look up, the tears start to fall from my eyes.

"Last night was... the worse it had ever got. He... doesn't even remember in... the morning." I feel my body shaking with every sob. The room was silent. They probably think I'm some weak little girl. "How come you never told any body?" I thing that was Bryan."Who... can... I tell?" I could barely talk because of the choking tears. "The police." he answered.

I looked up at him, "What... is that?" I ask. They all sucked in a breath. "O.k. Mariah, this might be hard, but I want you to think as far back as possible." Tala told me. "What do you remember?" "Nothing." I answered quickly."Try." the room went silent again. I closed my eyes. "A village, people that I don't know... some green haired boy... my brother's stupid friends that helped Lee beat me up sometimes!" More tears. I struggle to remember more. This is so hard. "Air port... crash... blood...white room... my mom and dad's funeral..." I opened my eyes. "I don't wanna remember anymore."

"It's alright." Tala told me. "How about you go up stairs and I bring you some food." I nod and walk out the room, but I don't go up stairs. I wouldn't call it ease dropping, just listening to their conversation without them knowing. "So, what do you think?" Spencer. "I think we should let her stay." Tala. "She's o.k. Nothing like she was before." Bryan. Silence, is that a good thing. "O.k. she can stay." Kai. "Yes!" Tala and Bryan said.

"You don't even know her." Tala told Bryan. "I know, but she seems cool. The good thing is she can't hold a grudge against me for what I did to Ray. It's like my plate is wiped clean." I smile. Yes. I think to myself before walking to the room. They seem nice. I think I'm gonna have a great time here.

O.k. I know it's sad. I'll try to make the next chapter happy, but hey, even I don't know what's gonna happen next. That's the fun thing about writing! Until next chapter! Bye!
