POV MIKU
"Yeah, I'm fine Miku..." Len said slowly, his voice was shaky a bit. "Are you okay?"
"Yes, I'm fine, Len." I said, almost the same way he had. "The flood is down enough for me to walk... I need to go Len." I said when Kaito finally walked towards us. I need him to hear that so he wouldn't ask Len stupid questions…
"Why Miku? We can stay a bit and wait till the flood is really down." Kaito quizzed.
"I just need to go Kaito. I'm sorry." I bid them my goodbyes and walked away. I went out the school. The flood's still a bit up… but, I'm able to walk through it… getting wet on the process though. What was that? What happened with Len? What happened with me? What was that? Confusion took over my body and mind. I barely noticed the streets anymore, but thankfully I could walk home from school even in this confusion. It's like second-nature to me. My mind flooded with at least a hundred questions… none of which I could answer, one thing's for sure… Len must have felt something as well. That sudden rush of power, that increase in sense. That sudden jolt. Like… like… the way nerves pass impulses, the way they connect. Arrggh! This is too confusing. I almost missed my street.
"Come on! Do this right Miku!" I commanded myself.
"Are you alright, child?" A blonde woman asked me. Strange… she looks a lot like Len. I must really be way off. Stupid mind. But I do hate to be disrespectful.
"Yes ma'am, I'm okay."
"Hmm… I didn't think you would be. You're not getting any weird feelings or things happening that you cant understand? Things you somehow cant explain no matter how hard you try?"
"Excuse me?" Shock went through me. What did she know?
She laughed lightly, "I thought so… Don't worry Miku, you'll figure it out."
"Okay, that's where I draw the line miss. I'm sorry to be disrespectful but I have to go… this is officially creeping me out." I snapped then turned around.
"Oh, I understand child. Please take care of Len for me!" She called after me.
Len… Len… Len… how did she know Len? I turned around slowly. The street was getting colder, I already had goosebumps… or is it because I'm scared? I don't know. I'm not sure… I'm not quite sure with anything right now.
"Excuse me how..?" I said while turning, but she was gone… nothing… vanished. I went to the corner of the street to see if she just walked away but… she wasn't anywhere. Just plain old gone. What's happening really? All this seems to involve Len. I have to see him. Find him. I'll just go to his house and ask what the hell is going on. He must know something. Who was that woman? I walked back to the street… speak of the devil. What's Len doin at Gakupo's?
POV LEN
A few more streets and I'm at Gakupo's. I wonder what I left… I totally forgot about that festival. There's just so much stuff in my mind right now! I wish I could just shut down or something. I sigh, I wonder when this would all end… if it would end. I hope it would. I should take this opportunity to just think of other stuff, not including this strange things that's happening. Like school… I need to study harder of else I'd start flunking. Miku's going to kill me if I flunk even one subject. 'Always study Len! It's very important!' she always says. School is better that all these problems, but the problem is both gives me headaches! Finally I arrived at My street… Gakupo's house is just a few block from my house. I walked up to their lawn then gave 3 knocks on the door. I heard footsteps… fast ones. The door opened.
"Hey Len!"
"Hi Gakupo, uhh… you said I left something?"
"Yeah, you left you bag here last week."
"ohh yeah! I was going to get it… it must've escaped my mind." I said. In the corner of my eyes I saw Miku walking by the corner… Gakupo handed me my bag.
"Thank's dude." I said while reaching out for it. What's Miku doing here? Oh yeah, that's right… she lives in this street. I'm stupid. But how did I get here faster? She left first. She must've done some errands… My skin had contact with Gakupo's. Then I was falling. Falling into a dark pit… My vision failed, my senses blurred. I don't know how long it was… it could have been a year, a month, a second, or a few minutes. Then the sun pierced through my eyes. I opened them slowly.
I saw floats, people having picnics… I'm in the field nest to the forest. What am I doing here? How did I get here? Why are there so many people? There aren't usually many people in this field. It's just a field of grass… then it hit me. I'm in the festival. The breeze brushed on my back, I turned to see Miku and Kaito. Yes! They'll tell me what happened. I ran towards them.
"Hey guys!" I called.
"Where do you think Len and Gakupo's at?" Miku asked Kaito.
"What do you mean, Miku? I'm here." I smirked at her.
"I don't know, Len has been strange this morning… keeps on saying I need to see Gakupo and stuff like that." Kaito said. This morning? What?
"I hope they're okay." Miku sighed. Then I felt something… somehow dark. Then Miku gasped.
"What is it Miku?"
"Ohh.. umm.. nothing Kaito. I just… just felt something." Felt something? What's happening? What's with them? They act as if I'm not even here… I touched Miku's hand, but my hand just went right through hers… I gasped. Am I dreaming? I must be, right?
The dark feeling was strange… somehow a presence. I looked to my right. Then I was them… cloaked figures flowing with the wind as if it's in their control. It suddenly felt cold. Nobody seems to see them, like me. Keeping my distance with them, I followed. They went pass the field and into the woods. After a few minutes of walking in the woods, I saw Gakupo sleeping by a tree. Sleeping… he doesn't seem to be sleeping, seems more like unconsciousness. Then I was blood by his head. No! What happened to Gakupo? The cloaked figures circled Gakupo. By my count, they're four. I was frozen, I could not make a sound, I could not even move… like I'm not supposed to interfere. I was a ghost.
One approached him. It placed it's hand on top of him then something… a ball of light… slowly crept out of Gakupo. The farther the light get's from Gakupo, the paler he gets… so it isn't just a light then. It was Gakupo's life source. They now circled the ball… leaving Gakupo lifeless on the ground. The ball starts to dim… getting dimmer… dimmer… then suddenly fades away. Gakupo's now dead. I struggled to make a sound, to move. It was like I was paralyzed. I finally felt my ghostly body again. The cloaked figures seemed startled… one shot a look at me. Then I fell into the dark pit again.
