Just to let you know in advance that I'm going home on holiday for two weeks over Easter so I probably won't be updating at all within that time so, sorry about that but I want to spend a bit of time with my family.
Also I was planning to write a long chapter for this update but with packing and essays I don't have the time to spare so I dare to appease you by waiting until after I get back to give you the long update and fob you off with another word from our stalker…-grin-
Tru Seramath: NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!
tony nicholas bryant: heh heh heh…now would I turn this into a horror? And you'll just have to wait and see about the stalker thing…! And what is it with you people and Ren! –sigh- you make him out to be some sort of major character…or something…(lol)
cxvxs: glad you're enjoying it!
Mav1: oooh! Long review! I love those! Heh, I'm glad you couldn't find any mistakes in the chapter, it means that I'm either so good at English that I don't make any mistakes or that the chapter was so captivating that you just glossed over the mistakes! Lol. Though it kinda has me worried that you were looking for mistakes –gets buried under pressure- lets just hope I can keep it up eh?
Aviana656: yeah…poor Ren…I wish people would make up their minds! They want him in the story and yet label him a stalker! But then again, as you said, it would be the perfect twist…
Blacktohru: Thanks! Hope you enjoy this chapter more than I did writing it!
Reader713: Shigo's 47 years old.
Elfspirit7: here you go!
Eralda: heh heh! You know…I think I need to set up a poll to see how many of you think that Ren is a stalker! (I'm guessing that you don't want him to be…but then again you know how much I like twisty surprises –grin-)
Gaara and Sakura FanGirl: Yay! Shigo! …do you want me to kill Ren? (you'll find out why in later chapters…) the DocX section is in the side bar when you log into your account. Basically it allows the transfer of documents easily between two members but you will have to resave the beta'd work back into a word document before you can upload it on the site.
Queenofthespades: Here you go then!
And now...for your viewing pleasure...(or not as the case might be)
Chapter 6
A moan echoed out into the dark room flowed closely by a shuddering gasp. Eyes shot open, still seeing the horror that had assaulted him in the dreamscape, as the owner sat bolt upright and a strangled cry fought its way from his throat.
Eventually reality encroached its way back into his vision and his throat opened up a little, allowing breaths to come just that tiny bit easier. He swallowed, his throat dry, and fell backwards onto the sweat soaked sheets.
He ran his hand through his hair and tried to catch the reminiscence of the dream before he lost it all together, but, like most dreams as soon as reality makes itself known, the details were blurring into one and fading from memory until only splashes of colour remained.
Black. There was a lot of black and red and…
The man frowned.
A flash of yellow?
He sighed and turned his head to the side, trying to forget.
The flickering image on the television screen played itself over and over again and he felt himself relax a little as he mouthed her name...
"Kyoko…"
The tension draining from his shoulders. A dreamy smile crossed his lips as he watched the figure dance across the screen.
Over and over and over and over and over and…
A frown crossed his face. The dream had faded but the terror that the dream had brought with it had not. It stifled him as he lay on his bed, covered in cold sweat.
He didn't want this. He didn't want to feel the terror. He would feel whatever he would want himself to feel.
Snarling he threw himself out of bed and stalked across the room. Sitting at his desk he pulled on his gloves and carefully slotted a piece of paper into the printer. After the night he had just had he was feeling overly paranoid about everything.
Turning on his monitor he stared at the screen until it slowly faded from a back to the familiar screen. It was times like these that he was glad that he always kept his computer up and running.
As his fingers touched the keyboard the tension that he hadn't even noticed completely drained from him. He sagged forward a little as he tapped out his next letter.
And in the dark room the man smiled.
Lory almost snarled as another envelope was handed to him. Reigning in his anger he pulled on the gloved that he had bought especially for this. Though he didn't have much hope that fingerprints would be found on this one too.
Gingerly he slit the envelope with his letter opener and tipped out the newest addition to Kyoko's fan mail.
My beautiful little angel
You chase my bad dreams away and bring such pleasure into my life. You really are my guardian angel.
It does not matter that we have never seen each other face to face before. I know you and it is enough to know that we are soul mates.
Do not worry little one, we shall be together soon.
Together forever.
From
The only one that truly cares.
Lory gritted his teeth. It was exactly like Shigo had predicted. This stalker seemed to be getting increasingly irritated with being so restricted so far away from Kyoko. Lory had no doubt that whoever was the author of these letters would probably try to make contact soon.
It was time to move Shigo to a more open position around Kyoko for her own safety.
Lory could only hope that it could all end well.
Oooooh…
So what do you think?
Creepy? No?
And honestly…who thinks that the stalker is/or could be Ren?
…actually, I'm just going to put up a poll so go vote there…
BUT STILL REVIEW!
