Chapter Seven
Alley Heros and MSNs
Ran doodled on her notebook, not bothering to listen to her math teacher. Her math teacher was the only one who would dare challenge her to solve some of the most complicated problems every. Ms. Levy, however, would always fail to outsmart her and give her detentions.
She looked down at her notebook. Drawn on the book was a beautiful phoenix with its wings spread out and it appeared to be flying off the page. Suddenly, the picture started to remind her of Kai.
Argh, why is he always in my mind? It's not like I love him or anything like that...but before we found who both really are on my first day of school here...he was actually nice to me. That smile I saw...it was the same one he would always give me when ever we see each other as kids. Could this mean...I'm falling in love with him?
Ran was so deep in thought, she didn't hear the teacher call her name.
"Ms. Hino," said Ms.Levy as she smacked a ruler on her desk.
"Huh," said Ran as she snapped out of her thoughts.
"I see your now with us again. Now, why don't you go to the board and solve that equation since you thought it was fun to just sit there and daydream all day long." said Ms.Levy as she pointed towards the board.
Ran studied the equation on the board for a moment before going up there. She got up from her seat, picked up the chalk and wrote the answer down. Ms.Levy walked back to the board and checked the answer.
"You're...right again," mumbled Ms.Levy as she started to erase the board.
Soon the bell rang and everybody started heading out the door. There was only one class left and that was gym class.
"Great. I have another class with Mr. Pretty Boy," muttered Ran as she walked to the girls' locker rooms.
Girl's Locker Room
As Ran entered the room, she was greeted by Rei-Ling and Takara.
"Hey, Ran" said Rei-Ling as she tied her hair with a blue ribbon.
"So, how was class with Pretty Boy?' asked Takara as she changed clothes
"Horrible, he purposely knocked down my books and also tried to trip me," shouted Ran as she started to change her clothes.
"I can't believe that fucking bastard!!! Maybe I'll be able to kick his butt today," growled Kara.
"You'll only get in trouble you know," said Ling.
"No, I won't. Today were playing dodgeball. Mr.Okita said so," said Kara smiling evilly.
"Fine, but you better not take it to far, ok?" said Ran.
"Ok, I won't anyway. Besides why would I want to kill your future husband," smirked Kara.
"Will you please stop saying that? It's starting to annoy me," muttered Ran angrily.
"Fine," said Kara.
"Hey, guys. I tthink we should get going. Everybody is in the gym." said Ling.
They all soon left the locker room and headed towards the gym.
Gym
Everybody really was there. Kate and the other cheerleaders were flirting with Kai and his gang. Kai looked really annoyed and so did his friends. Ran, Takara, and Rei-Ling walked over to the bleachers and sat near Kai. Ran looked over at Kai. She was getting really annoyed at watching Kate flirt with Kai. However, the truth is she felt sorry for him.
Wait a second, why would I feel sorry for that jerk. I mean, i hate him... do I really hate or am I just saying that? thought Ran.
"Settle down everyone," said Mr.Okita.
Everyone stopped talking and turned their attention to the teacher.
"Ok, today we will be playing soccer," announced Mr.Okita.
What! I thought we were gonna play dodgeball, thought Ran.
"I know that I said that we will be playing dodgeball, but we decide it was best if we play it some other time." said Mr.Okita.
"Great, we have to play soccer," mumbled Kara.
"Well, it isn't to bad. Besides haven't you forgotten that we three are on the soccer team," smirked Ran.
"Yeah! We can still kick Kai's ass since were the team's best players." said Ling cheerfully.
Soon the teams were picked and Kai was put on the opposing. The two teams kept geeting tied, but in the end Ran's team had won. The bell rang and everybody went back to the locker rooms to change there clothes.
In the Parking Lot
Ran walked out to the parking lot and waited by Kai's car. A while later Kai finally came and told her to get into the car. The ride home was quiet. Neither Kai or Ran said a single word. It wasn't until they reached Ran's place that they finally spoke.
"See ya Kai" said Ran as she walked up the sidewalk.
"Hn," said Kai as he drove to his house.
Ran's Place
Ran entered the house and said her greetings to her siblings. She walked up the stairs and into her room.
"You ok?" asked Hikaru as leaned against her doorway.
"Sort of. Why am I engaged to Kai anyway?" replied Ran.
"Because...they thought it was best for you. If they didn't engaged you to Kai...then you might as well get engaged to Derek." answered Hikaru.
"Derek! You mean the brat that always argue with Kai when we were kids?" questioned Ran.
"Yep. That's him all right," smiled Hikaru.
"Can you leave now? I want some privacy right now." said Ran as she turned on her labtop.
Once Hikaru left she signed on to MSN.

The computer turned off and someone left the room.
At a bar'Thanks for the help, Ran," shouted Kiko.
"No problem," smiled Ran.
"I better get going," she said.
"Ok, see ya some other time Ran," said Kiko as Ran walked out the door.
On the alleys
Ran took a shortcut through the alleys even if it was dangerous to go that way especially at night. Everything was quiet as she walked down the alley. It wasn't until she heard something that she finally stopped.
"Who's there?" she yelled.
There was no one there, but she knew that someone was following her. She quickly walked down the alley. She was almost out of the alley when someone grabbed her arm.
"Hey, there cutie," said the stranger as he covered her mouth with a cloth.
Ran couldn't keep her eyes open for some reason. She struggled a bit before she felt her tired and weak. She was about to give up when someone knocked the man onto the ground.
"You better back off," said the newcomer.
The stranger looked at the newcomer with shock on his face, but did as he was told and ran off into the empty streets.
"Huh, who are you?" muttered Ran sleepily.
"HellPhoenix," replied the newcomer.
Before she could get a good look at his face, she had already fallen asleep He lifted her up and carried her down the dark alley.
Ran's Pov
The next morning I woke up to find myself laying in my own bed. My head was a bit fuzzy. I shook my head a couple of times and soon realized something.
Who was that guy from last night? I thought.
For some reson he seems familar to me. Could that be...? No, it can't be him. I hate him. Besides why would he save me anyway. It's not like he likes me or anything...but he was so nice to me before. Why would he start to like again?
I was so absorbed in her thoughts that I didn't even notice my brother came into the room.
"Hey, Ran," said Hikaru.
"Um, Hikaru..how did i get back here?' I asked.
"Oh, someone carried you here and I told him where your room was so that he would put you down. After that, he left," replied Hikaru.
"Did you know who he was?" I questioned hoping to find out who my mysterious savior was.
"I can't tell you that. He told me not to tell you who he was. You'll have to find out your self." he answered as he left her room.
I frowned since her brother wouldn't tell her. I looked at the time and it said 10:30 in the morning. Since I didn't have any plans today, I decided to sign on MSN.
I studied the list hoping to find someone to talk to, but there was only one name. My eyes widen as I regconized that name. It was his name. The one who had saved her last night.
HellPhoenix
Quickly she started to type as fast as she could and hoping he will answer her.
DarkAngel signs on.
DarkAngel says: your the guy from last night aren't you?
HellPhoenix says: Yeah.
DarkAngel says: Thanks for saving me.
HellPhoenix says: No problem...Fujimori.
DarkAngel says: How did you know my last name?
HellPhoenix says: ...
DarkAngel says: Answer me!
HellPhoenix says: You'll find out someday.
DarkAngel says: Who are you?
HellPhoenix says: ...
DarkAngel says: Are u gonna answer me or not?
HellPhoenix says: You don't need to know that...yet.
DarkAngel says: Kai. if that's u then answer me.
HellPhoenix says: what makes u think i was him?
DarkAngel says: so ...you're not kai.
HellPhoenix says: we'll meet each other again...someday
HellPhoenix signs out.
Before I could ask him what he meant, he had already logged off.
Questions begin to fill my mind as I tried to figure out what he meant.
Why am I thinking about him so much? I don't even know him. Whoever he is...I'm gonna find out. I thought as I logged off and left my room.the next chapter might come out late, but i will continue the story. so please don't rush me, i already have enough presurre from trying to finish this chapter. the next chapter for Vampire Love is nearly complete, so be sure to keep an eye out for it.!
