It's lOST again. Sorry for the super-short chapter. We'll update again real soon (As in probably today again). Enjoy.

Disclaimer: We don't own Gravitation, Shaman King, or its characters. Duh.


Chapter three: Panic Attacks and Cut Wrists

The rec. room was filled with random things to do. Board Games, cards, books, TV, and a writing/craft center with, yes, scissors.

Fujisaki was talking to a chair; K was playing a video game that involved using a plastic blue gun control. Tatsuha was staring at himself in the mirror. Ryuichi was singing Karaoke; Shuichi was giving Yuki a lap dance (A/N Phoenix: wtf?). Hiro was making a speech about how he was unloved. Daisuke was staring at the wall in a corner, Ren sitting next to her suspiciously. Rei was playing solitaire and glancing meaningfully at the phone.

Kaiya sighed and went to the craft/ writing center and sat across from Daisuke and Ren. Daisuke looked at her then went back to staring at the wall.

"H-Hi." Ren greeted.

Kaiya nodded then picked up the scissors. Pushing back her sleeve, revealing all her cuts, she placed the blade of the scissors against her scared wrist. Pushing the blade firmly on her flesh she dragged it across, crimson welling in its wake.

Ren turned blue, and hid his face in his hands. Daisuke noticed the whimpering noises coming from the figure next to her and glanced at him. He was trembling. She sighed and looked over at Kaiya who was still hacking at her wrist.

She got out of her chair quietly and walked out of the room. She came back a few minutes later with Kosuke.

"Kaiya!" Kosuke yelled. "Wrist check."

Kaiya shrugged and carelessly showed Kosuke her wrist.

"That's it. To the infirmary." He steered her out of the room, paying no attention to the wincing boy who was across from her.

This was not what Daisuke wanted to happen. She sat back down next to Ren, who was still twitching and flinching like crazy.

"She's gone. It's ok." whispered Daisuke, her voice cracking from lack of use. "Everything's alright. You're fine." For some reason he believed her. He finally calmed down, and drifted off to sleep.

Still not showing any emotion on her face, she ignored the stares of the other people in the room and picked Ren up off of the floor. She gave him a piggy-back ride back to his room, where he could sleep in peace.
