W-what is that? It's annoying.
You reflexively slap away whatever was poking you, but it starts shaking you this time. You open your eyes and see Sayori smiling. "What do you want?" She laughs. "Hehe, you finally woke up, huh? You know we can't be late today." You grunt. "It's too early to wake up on a Sunday." She looks confused but then you realize that her and the others are all wearing their school uniforms. "It... It is Sunday, right?" ... "Shoot. Gimme a minute." You stretch and attempt to push the blanket off of you, but It won't move. It's caught on something. That something (or someone) is right beside you.
"Aaaahh!" You scoot away from Yuri, who was sleeping next to you and on top of a part of the blanket. "I-I swear, I didn't know she was t-there!" You blurt out. Yuri opens her eyes and juts back, hitting her head off of Sayori's bed. "Owww..." Natsuki helps Yuri up. "If you ever try something like that again, I'll kick you in the balls so hard you can forget about getting with her."
What's that supposed to mean...?
"I wasn't trying to do anything! I have no idea how she got there! She must've rolled over or something." You were such a terrible liar. Even Sayori could see through the trick. "Hey! I know Mike, and he would never try anything like that! He may be a perv, but he's not that bad of a guy!"
I'm not sure whether to be grateful or offended.
Monika laughed, loving watching Sayori be oblivious to the situations she puts herself in. Natsuki reaches for your arm and pulls you and Yuri together. She has fire in her eyes. "Say sorry, you brat! Or I'll make you!" She juts forward, trying to make you flinch. "Haha, the chihuahua's angry!" Sayori laughs. She looks down at her phone and gasps. She rushes out the door and everyone follows, wanting to see what's up.
"Sayori! What's wrong?!" "We're gonna be late! It's 8:40 already! We got like 10 minutes!" Sayori doesn't look back.
Since when did she care about getting to school on time?
Laughing to yourself, you hurry to keep up with everyone. Hopping the fence gates, you made it there a few minutes before class starts. Catching your breath, you ask the obvious question that's been on your mind. "Why did we sprint here? School is literally right down the street." Sayori laughs. "Monika's practicing for the talent show today, remember?" You tilt your head. "What talent show?" She laughs again. "There's a talent show tommorow! Are you that bad at listening?!" Natsuki jabs at you. You roll your eyes as you say goodbye and split up and head to your classes. Monika was, as previously mentioned, going to practice, Yuri and Sayori have first period together and Natsuki has class on the 3rd floor.
You were all alone to wander the halls. You've developed a good ability to tune out the loud conversations while walking down the halls. You liked being alone with your thoughts. It was just nice to reflect on life, and set goals for a new day. Maybe today you won't get in trouble at all, or you'll get a perfect score on that upcoming history test. With goals set in mind, you walk boldly to your first class. With your whole life ahead of you, you have to make the best of it!
Pushing open the door, you plop down on your seat next to your friend. "Yo. How's it going?" "Hey Akira. I'm feeling good today. No issues yet." You laugh. "So, how'd the sleepover go?" "W-what?! How... How did you know about that?" Akira laughs and pushes his glasses up. "I was in detention and I was about to leave, but I heard some chick yelling so I got curious and poked my head inside and saw you sitting there. She talked about having a sleepover. Lucky bastard."
Nosey bastard.
"W-woah, I wouldn't say lucky, nothing happened really. We just watched movies and played games. The girl you heard yelling was probably Sayori." "Yeah, I think it was." You pick up your bag on pull out your binder.
"Hey, my mom's gonna get us pizza tonight and she said you would be welcome to come over and have some." Akira perked his head up. "Pizza, you say? Normally I would, but I have an assload of homework. My cousins were over on the weekend so I guess I just forgot about it. Sorry." "Nah, it's cool. More for me." Akira laughed.
Beeeeeeeeep.
The intercom went off. Even though it was probably nothing important, every time it went off, you were slightly invested. A man who was obviously distressed but trying to stay calm, spoke with
"Staff members and students. This is not a drill. An unidentified and potentially armed individual has entered the school. Please follow lockdown protocol and if you come across this individual, run as fast as you can in the opposite direction. Teachers must scan the halls and lock the doors." Every word the man said raised your Panic MetreTM tenfold. The teacher, who seemed as scared as everyone else, got up and poked his head out of the door and quickly shut and locked it.
The lights were off and everyone was huddled in the corner, fearing for their very lives.
She closed the door behind her as the intercom dinged. Footsteps could be heard from down the hall. Her book hit the ground and she was frozen in fear. Blood lust was obvious in his eyes. His crimson hair blew in the wind as he pulled out a knife and charged toward her. Natsuki dodged to the side and grabbed his arm and neck. With a single move she brought him to the ground. He slid over and kicked her in the shin. She fell and grabbed the knife that fell out of his hand.
The impact of his knee hitting her face had knocked her brain around and she instinctively held her hands over her head. He snatched the knife and took off. "Coward!" She yelled, drops of spittle flying from the corners of her mouth. She stomped away with a pissed look on her face despite the tears rolling down her cheek.
"P-please, get off me! I'll give you whatever you want, just don't hurt me!" She heard someone cry out. That voice was familiar. She turned the corner to find Yuri getting corned by this freak. She charged and drop kicked the guy so hard it sent him a few feet away. Yuri pulled Natsuki up as they ran down the halls. He gave chase, only making the girls speed up. Natsuki turned back and looked at his feet, which were not touching the ground.
Shocked, she froze as Yuri ran behind her. The man gave her a toothy grin, revealing his gross teeth as he flew by swept up Yuri under her feet. The crash through the window made a piercing sound as he flew into the distance.
Natsuki collapsed on the spot, questioning her current circumstance. "What the fuck just happened?!"
The intercom dinged once more. "Attention, after thorough investigation around the school, the previously mentioned individual has appeared to have exited the building. Please continue with regular behavior, but do be cautious when heading to your next classes. Thank you for listening."
The class was afraid to move, and Akira was hugging the leg of a desk. The teacher gave the class a free period to calm down and collect themselves. A car door slammed shut outside and made Akira jump. He was clearly still shaken up, and rightfully so.
RRRRRRING!
He jumped once more. You headed up to your next class.
"Ugh, I'm too fat for stairs." You thought. Catching your breath, you fling open the door to science and take a seat.
"Have either of you seen Natsuki or Yuri? They did agree to walk home with us, right? Wonder why they haven't shown." Sayori asked. "They probably got caught up in conversation about something. You know how girls are, seeing as we could spend hours chatting about one topic." Monika responded. "That's why I like talking with Mike. Guys get straight to the point about things." She smiles at you. Trying to hide your blush, you turn to your phone and try to text Yuri.
"Hey where r u?"
After a few minutes, there's still no response. She's probably in the bathroom and can't check her phone. "Lets wait a few more minutes." As if on cue, Natsuki storms out the door and into Sayori's arms. "H-hey, what's wrong?" Natsuki has tears in her eyes. "Y-Yuri, she's been taken!" This sparks your attention. "W-what do you mean?" Natsuki turns to you. "Like, she got kidnapped or something. This guy came down the hall and kneed me in the head." She moves her hair to show the bump. "A-and, then he literally flew off with Yuri! I know it's crazy, but it really happened!"
"What? B-but... If..." It's hard to put thoughts into words. "T-that's impossible, but...even..."
Even if he couldn't fly, then where's Yuri?! You take a deep breath. "She probably just went home early because she was sick or something, which would make sense because if she was sick, she wouldn't be answering her phone." "Are you sure you're feeling alright? She must've gone home early or something. Did you not sleep last night? Cause you might have been hallucinating and walked into a wall or something."
"Don't you think it's a little odd how the same day a criminal walks into our school, a kid goes missing? That's one hell of a coincidence if you ask me!" Natsuki punches you in the stomach. "H-hey, what the hell was that for?!" Monika gets up and pulls Natsuki away.
"Natsuki, I want you to take a deep breath. Can you do that for me?" She nods and stutters her breathing. Monika pulls her into a hug. "Yuri is ok, I know it." She hugs back. "We're going to Yuri's house and I'm gonna show you she's just fine."
The door opened, with Yuri's dad at the entrance. "Hi, Mr. Kobayashi, We haven't seen Yuri today and we just wanted to make sure she got home safe." Monika asked. The look on his face crushed all the faith left in your heart. "I thought she was hanging out with you all after school."
"You mean my baby's gone?!" Mrs. Kobayashi almost fainted onto the couch. "I'm actually speechless here. I always thought that only the bad kids got taken like this! Yuri's the kindest child I've ever met! She was always very pretty, but not enough to get taken away like this!" Mrs. Kobayashi smacked her husband on the head. "That came out wrong." Sayori came back from the other room. "The police will be here soon. I don't know who did this or why, but when we find him I'm gonna give him a hard smack!"
The police arrived to question Natsuki but asked everyone else to go home. As you lay in your bed, you can't help but wonder why that guy did what he did. It felt like the sun was never going to come back up. Literally and metaphorically. You weren't the slightest bit of tired. You couldn't just stand by and watch your girlfriend get taken like this. What could you do though?
Reaching over and turning on your phone, the light filled the room and forced your eyes to get accustomed to the luminosity of the screen. Still no response. Tomorrow you would go around spreading the word.
Ding!
Immediately flipping over, you pick up your phone fast enough that the screen hasn't gone dark again. The notification was an amber alert detailing Yuri and her disappearance. It only made your heart sink deeper.
The pillow caved in as she attempted to get some sleep. Sayori promised her self to dish out a cold plate of revenge to whoever took her friend. She slept easily as her anger tired her out, and she had faith that her and her friends would see Yuri again. Tomorrow was another day.
Monika squinted as the sun filled her vision. She turned over and fell off her bed. "Ow!" She said as her nose throbbed. "That's one way to wake up." She held her nose and opened her top drawer and put on her uniform. She opened the fridge and grabbed the milk. She turned on her phone and saw the same notification that got sent out last night. Sighing, she finished her cereal and headed out the door. The warm air hit her face as the world looked so peaceful in a time so unfitting for such a tone.
"Monika? Get up, the teacher will be here any minute now." She pulled her head off her desk and turned to her friend, Sora Kumotta, who was alerting her of the teacher's arrival. She was shocked to see Monika like this. She would never act so lazy and apathetic. "You okay, Moni? You're never tired in the morning." Monika paused. "Sorry, I'm just a little under the weather is all." Sora smiled. "Oh, ok. Get better soon!" Monika smiled as the sky blue haired girl opened her binder. Monika put her head back down.
She had an idea.
Monika, despite being the student with near perfect attendance, could manage to miss a day. She'd just pretend to be sick and go home. Pulling out her phone, she messaged the other girls and you about missing the club meeting today and that everyone should meet her at her house. The intercom dinged.
"Greetings all students and staff members. We are having a mandatory assembly in about 15 minutes, so get prepared. Have a good day."
Monika knew what exactly this was about. Thank god she's getting some of the spotlight. Monika was going to make sure her friend got back safe. The time came and everyone headed down to the auditorum. The principal of the school walked up to the podium as everyone watched in awe at what he had to say.
"Yesterday, as you all know, we had an individual enter the school and we performed a lockdown. We thought no one had encountered this person but as it turns out we were wrong. Yuri Kobayashi had not returned home yesterday and officers had interviewed her parents and one of her friends who has requested to stay anonymous. We are deeply sorry for our incompetence and have police working 24/7 on this case. This abduction is our current priority and we can say with hope that Yuri will make it back unharmed. Thank you for your time and if you have any information about her disappearance, please contact police."
"Wow, that sucks, eh Moni?" She didn't respond. Sora put her hand on Monika's shoulder. "It'll be ok. I'm sure they'll find her in no time." Monika's eyes started to glisten.
"Hi Mike!" You jumped out of your seat. "S-Sayori! Jesus!" "Hi Akira!" Akira waved as he put his lunch away. You caught your breath. "What's up Sayori?" "I wanted to let you know that Monika said club was cancelled today." You sigh. "She's takin' it pretty rough too, eh?" Sayori frowns. "Yeah. We're all shaken up about this. Just imagine how scared she must be! Ooooh, I'm shaking just thinking about it! Can I sit with you guys?" You pull out a chair. Sayori smiles and sits down.
She opens her bag and frowns. You roll your eyes. "Here. Have this." You hand her an apple. "Hey! I remembered my lunch. Geez, I'm not that stupid. It's just..." She pulls a book out of her bag. "Yuri lended me this book to read, but I never got a chance to return it..." A tear rolls down her cheek. "H-hey, Sayori. It's ok. We're gonna get her back an-" "Kick whoever took her in the nuts!" ... "L-look I know you're upset, but don't scream something like that where everyone can hear you! It's embarrasing." She scratches her head. "Heh. Sorry."
"Aah." The tingly sensation of the soda going down your throat gave you a brief period of stimulation. The sun falls as the sky goes from a warm orange to a deep blue. The clouds had soon covered the sky and released the downpour that was forecasted later tonight. The wind blew through your hair as you stood outside on the balcony, powerless and unresponsive. Thoughts of what could be happening to her flooded your mind. A bleak expression lay on your face. Thoughts of her getting tortured filled your head, and made you sick to your stomach.
"You...promised..."
"N-no...I had no way of..."
"You made her...come out of her shell..."
"St-stop it! I couldn't have done anything!"
"That's not the point...you...promised...you...promised...YOU...PROMISED!"
Your legs buckle as your knees hit the ground. You can feel the can tightening as you crush it in your hand. The pure rage in your heart made it impossible to think clearly. Why were you thinking like this? You've never been so pessimistic before. Something was wrong, I mean sure, these past few days have been odd, but you never thought it would take this much of a toll on you. "Phew. I need some rest. I'm just tired is all." You slowly pushed yourself up on your feet and headed into bed. The lingering feeling of dread and hatred grew larger as the blanket swallowed you whole into a nice warm feeling reminiscent of when you held Yuri in your arms.
"What I'd do to feel like that again."
"Dear god, why me?" Yuri thought as she wobbled, trying to break free. Any sign of the ropes giving way could make a world of difference. "Is this how I die? There's so much I haven't done yet..." In that moment, she thought of Mike and how much she wanted to do with him. A door creaked open. Yuri hoped it was someone there to rescue her, but she knew that wouldn't happen. The person didn't say anything as he kicked the chair over. Yuri hit her head off the floor. She could feel her cheeks heat up as tears ran down her face. The blindfold was torn from her face as she looked at the man who she could've sworn had red hair. His now orange hair gave off a sense of fire and danger. Yuri's pleas only made him more eager.
The sun beamed on Sayori's face as she walked outside. Mike would've woken her up at this point, so she thought she'd use this chance to get back at him for all the times he had rudely woken her up. She could've guessed, but she had to try. The door was locked as anticipated, so she walked to the side. After a couple knocks on the window, she was getting impatient.
She covered her eyes to block the sun, and saw you laying in bed, unmoving. Sayori's frown deepened. She tried to open the window, and to her surprise, it actually worked. She regained her smile and poked you in the nose a bunch until you woke up. With a big yawn, your eyes opened to Sayori creepily smiling at you. "Aah! What the... How the hell did you get in here?!" She laughed and pushed you. "You left your window unlocked, dummy!" You moaned and threw the blanket off of yourself. Sayori pulled you up too fast and made you dizzy. You just look at her with an annoyed expression. She just smiles wider.
"Why are you getting me up instead of me getting you up?" "I woke up before you today. I'm impressed at myself, really! I'm getting payback for all the times you got me up before!" She pokes your face. "Now get dressed! We have school today!"
Sayori idled in the other room, flipping her purse up and down by the handle. You open the door to see her smiling. "Seriously, how do you stay happy, even at a time like this?" She shruggs. "I dunno. I just have faith, I guess." She smiles again. "Let's go!" She pulls open the door and heads down the street as you do the same.
The school day was as ordinary as ever. The temperature was nice, nothing bad happened today, this day was going just fine. That was, until club time came around. The final bell chimed as you grabbed your bags and headed down the same hallway you walked many a time. You pulled open the doors to find no one there yet. You turned your head toward Yuri's seat. You feel the air leave your throat as you sigh, just as the club doors open once more. Natsuki walks in and looks at you and then away. "Hey." She says quietly. "Hi." She walks over to Yuri's seat.
"I guess you never realize how good someone is until they're gone." You nod in agreement. "Yeah. It sure seems that way, doesn't it?" You turn to see Natsuki with glistening eyes. You only frown more. "Hey, It's not all bad. It's not like she's gone forever. We'll find her. I'm sure of it." She looks away. "I don't see why Monika didn't cancel club today. I could be at home instead of getting sad again." Something about that line told you she didn't want to go home. She turns to you. "Can... Can I... Hug you?" You perk your head up and push out your chair. You stretch out your arms and feel Natsuki's embrace. Her sobs fill the room as you can feel your shoulder get warmer from her tears. "It's okay. I miss her too. We're gonna get through this together. I promise." Natsuki grips you harder as she cries even louder. "I'm gonna hate myself for this, but I can't hold it in anymore." You bend down and look at her. "You don't have to hide anything, Natsuki. We're all friends going through the same problem. I don't want you to hide anything anymore. Look at me!"
You point to your eyes that are watering. "Look! Guys can't cry, right? That's what everyone says anyway. We're all human, Natsuki. Bottling up your emotions is terrible for you." She laughs a little. "That reminds me of Sayori's poem from a few days ago." You laugh as well. "Oh our Sayori. What would we do without her, right?" Natsuki wipes the tears from her eyes. "Thank you, Mike. You're really nice to me."
You give her a thumbs up. "Don't sweat it." You feel a stare. You turn to see Sayori, wiping her eyes as well. "H-hey! It's not lik-" "Natsuki." She sighs. "Y-yeah, it is what it looks like." Sayori collapses. "I hate this so much!" She yells. "I can't do it anymore! I've tried to stay optimistic and hopeful, but I just can't anymore! And seeing my friends so broken down makes it even worse!" You can feel your cheeks heating up more. She gets up and grabs your shirt. "It's just so hard!" Monika slowly enters the room. You look at her and wave slowly. She trudged over and leaned in for an embrace. Natsuki slowly joined in as well.
"I know this is a terrible feeling, but it'll be over soon. I'm sure of it."
"How sure are you really?"
The darkness enveloped her. Leaving only her and her thoughts. The room was cold, and reeked of cat urine. The hours ticked by as she sat frozen, unable to break free from her ropes. She tried reaching into her pockets to grab a knife, but she felt around to find that it was not in there. Either it fell out somewhere or her abductor had confiscated it. The one window was her only source of light, but it was placed at the side of the house, so it was very dim, even at noon.
The door creaked open. Every step closer made her heart race faster. The man's crimson hair was even darker than before, due to the previously mentioned bad lighting.
The horizon was dimming, your legs were tired. You thought that maybe a quiet walk would help ease your mind. Your hands were warm in your pockets, A constant frown slapped on your face. Your heard some shuffling in an alley. "I got it." You turned slowly as to not be caught. A man held out what looked to be a syringe. "Excellent." The other man said. "Now we can add another to the list." "I think we can actually do this!" The man said. The man infront of him said: "Of course we can. But keep your voice down, dumb ass. We don't want anyone giving us attention yet."
What the hell are they talking about?
You were surprised to have not been spotted by now. They luckily headed opposite your direction, but you couldn't shake the feeling this was somehow involved with Yuri. You ran around the block quietly, and followed them around. Hiding behind bushes and peeking behind buildings, you came to a stop once you saw them enter a house. It looked run down and abandoned. Broken windows and rotting paint. The pair turned the rusty doorknob and shut it behind them. You sneakily hopped around and found a window near the ground.
Your heart went faster than ever before. There she was, tied up and crying. You pulled out your phone.
Shit. No signal.
The window looked big enough for you to fit through, but you had nothing to break it with. You decided kicking would be the best option. The glass wouldn't budge. What the hell was this made of? Yuri, with her attention now captured, looked up to see you looking in. She felt a river of tears leaving her eyes as she thought she would finally be free. You put a finger to your lips, signaling her to be quiet. She nodded. As you turned your head around to find anything strong enough to break the window, you noticed a brick that wasn't pushed in all the way.
With your foot against the wall, you pulled with all your might, and surprisingly, the brick came out smoothly.
SMASH!
The window was now broken, but you had to act fast. You crawled through the window and hurt your legs on the way down. The floor was lower than anticipated. Ignoring the pain, you grabbed a piece of broken glass and started to cut the ropes. The door creaked open, and in a moment's notice, you were hidden under a workbench next to the stairs. There were the same people that you followed all the way here. As they inspected the window, You peak over at Yuri and gesture her to be quiet once more. She nods.
The men got some boards and started blocking the window. They leave a little gap for some light to get through. They walk over to Yuri. The man with orange hair picks up Yuri and holds her against the wall. Red sticks his hand inside Yuri's pants. You could hear her muffled cries as she struggled against the two. She kicks one of them lightly, due to the restraints. You're not sure why, but your legs just started moving without a second thought. The glass you held would be your weapon. You were about to stab Red in the arm, when you got flung against the wall. The man held his hand out. Almost unconscious, you wondered how this had happened. You just had to go and be a hero. Orange threw Yuri to the ground and picked you up by the shirt. "What the fuck do you think you're doing, bud? This your girlfriend or somethin'?" You chose not to answer. "Don't fucking ignore me!" The bastard put your head through the wall in one fell swoop. Chunks of drywall filled your eyes as the dust made it hard to breath. He pulled you out and dragged you across the floor.
Red put Yuri on a table and stabbed her with no second thought. She started to convulse on the table as her screams echoed throughout the room. Her shirt ripped as demon wings jutted out behind her. Her eyes started to glow pure white as beams of light emanated from the tips of her fingers.
"What the fuck did you do to her?!" You picked up a shard of glass and flung it into Red's face. Splots of blood flew everywhere, he collasped on the spot. Right between the eyes. "Use your powers for good and get rid of this bastard! Right now! Carry on our legacy!" Red said in his last moments of breath. Yuri turned to you and grit her gnarled teeth. She stuck out her hand towards you and unleashed a blast of air strong enough to break bones. Your arm was now broken. She turned her hand towards Orange. "Yes! Very good! Let us wreak havoc on this cruel wor-" She let out another blast.
This hole in the wall towered over the one your head made. Orange had just happened to have dodged it in time.
"Shit! She's too strong!" "What do you mean?! What does any of this mean?!"
Natsuki was right.
"Not everyone takes kindly to this formula! They become angry and unmerciful!" None of this made sense, but you were sure you weren't dreaming. The broken arm pretty much says it all. Orange kicked Yuri in the stomach and reached into the drawers. He pulled out another syringe and stabbed her in the arm. She was immediately stabilized. She coughed up some blood, sure, but she was back to normal, seemingly anyway. Orange was quick to grab her and throw her into the corner. He dashed around the room, attempting to confuse you. You stuck your foot out and he crashed into the wall. Yuri was reaching for the window, but Orange got up and stretched his hand out.
You knew what was coming next. You put all the energy into your legs and sprung forward. With your arms infront of your face, you could feel the air forcing you against the wall and crashing into Yuri. "Mike! No! Are you okay?!" Yuri bent down and brought you close to her. You were out cold. Everything else got blurry. Yuri pulled the syringe out of her arm.
"It's clear that this is an antidote, and you're clearly not human. So if I can get you with this, I bet you'll be nothing more than a weakling!" Orange let out a big laugh. "Good luck, bitch! I'm mastered the arts of tricking my opponent. See if you can follow the real me!" Orange got up and stared at Yuri as he walked in a circle. Soon enough, about 20 clones of him started to appear. As he claimed, Yuri couldn't figure out which one was actually him. "No smoke or mirrors here." All the clones seemed to say at once.
Yuri was shaking out of fear, scared for her own life. She felt that at any moment he could pull a dirty trick and end her life.
Yuri had realized something however. There seemed to be a clone who's clothes looked rather disheveled. "I am still kinda rusty with this technique, but it still checks out."
That just confirmed all her suspicions. "Here goes nothing!" She turned to the one with ripped clothes, and threw the syringe with all her might. All of the clones disappeared as she heard the needle go straight into his neck. "What the fuck! How did you know?!" Yuri kicked him right in his family jewels. "Y-you need to hide your openings better." She nudged you until you woke up. "W-wha? Yuri?!" She smiled at you. "Thank you so much, boyfriend." She kissed you on the cheek. With that, you were up on your feet, and ready to skedaddle.
After further investigation done by the police, it was found that Red and Orange were born with supernatural powers, and wanted to 'move humans forward' by forcefully injecting them with their own DNA which made people take the same traits as them. As Orange said earlier, they made an antidote just incase someone's body rejected the formula and went haywire like Yuri did. Red and Orange are now in prison and will hopefully die in there.
The air was brushing against your face as you two sat outside. A massive sigh of relief was released as you put your head between your knees.
"Yuri, I'm so, so sorry."
"For what?" She asked innocently. "I couldn't have stopped those guys. It was all up to you to have gotten us out of there." She hugs you tight. "Don't you even start like that. If you weren't there, I probably wouldn't have been here right now. You've done so much for me, that I'm the one who should feel bad. I love you, Mike! Nothing will ever change that."
She pulled you close and kissed you on the lips.
This was worth breaking an arm.
You did it.
You finally did it.
You protected her at all costs.
The End
