The Carnival

After we got off of work we ran to the carnival. We arrived and ended running around the carnival like mad men. We went on every ride, eat every piece of food we could get our hands on. The day was soon turning into night and the only ride we hadn't yet conquered was the Ferris wheel. We ran the the Ferris wheel and got in line.

Finally we boarded the Ferris wheel and watched the carnival's twinkling lights grow smaller and smaller as we rose into the air. When we neared the top, the Ferris wheel came to an abrupt stop. We glanced out the window to see what all the commotion was on the ground. I squinted to see what was going on. I gasped, I was shocked to see multiple red haired figures rapidly scaling the Ferris wheel. Casey and I knew immediately who they were. The tribe. Her tribe to be exact.

"Why are they coming after us?" Casey asked, already beginning to hyperventilate. I looked at her grimly.

"It's obvious. Quinn told them that you and Kyoya kissed." I ran to the other side of the pod to see if I could get a better look.

"I didn't kiss Kyoya!" She said while blushing

"Casey please, I can put one plus one together." I said giving her a lengthly glance as she joined me one the other side of the pod. Just as she did the door to our pod was pried open and Casey was pulled out by a burly man.

"You're coming with me, princess." He wrapped one arm around her midsection, trapping her arms at her side while her feet kicked out. Casey then turned to me with a fearful look.

"Look you psychopath! Casey doesn't want to marry Quinn! The sooner you get that through your thick head the sooner we can all walk away happy."

"We are not only here for the princess, were also here to murder you." My heart stopped. I saw Casey's eyes widen.

"You'll be breaking the treaty" I said without hesitation. Where did that come from? New memoirs filled my mind. I remembered being taught that the Burūbādo Tribe (bluebird tribe) and the Reddobādo Tribe (redbird tribe) had been in war against each other for centuries. After millions of deaths on both parts of the tribes there was only a few people to carry on the lines of the tribes. Both sides agreed that to make a treaty, there would be no more war, only peace. Killing me would be the end of the Burūbādo Tribe (bluebird tribe), and the war would start again.

"I have my orders" That was his answer.

"Megen, RUN!" The fact that she called me by my real name seemed to through the men off, I toke advantage of this and pushed past the men and leapt out of the pod and grabbed onto one of the metal bars supporting the Ferris wheel, I hang in the air for a little bit, I then pulled myself up. Then I started to make my way to the middle of the Ferris wheel so then I could make my way down.

"Look out!" I could hear Casey shout from somewhere above me and I glanced behind me to see one of the men making a grab for my ankle. I kicked out, hitting him in the face, and watched as he fell to the ground with a sickening crunch. I peered above me at another nearing man and froze as he pulled out a gun.

"Alex!" I heard someone called from below me. I looked down to see the twins.

"Kaoru?" They must have followed me here. I heard the sound of the gun go off. I let out a piercing cry as I felt something rip through my chest. I lost my footing, then I was falling, I waited for my body to hit the earth. Instead of the my bones crunching against the ground I felt someone caught me. I open my eyes to see Kaoru. He gently laid me on the ground. It felt like my body was frozen on the ground. I took short shallow breaths. It felt like my guts had been ripped apart and pulled out of my body. I was thinking for sure I was going to die…the pain, the blood and the screaming around me. My mind was reeling, fear was shooting through my mind. I didn't want to die. I felt something touch my face, bring back to reality. There was Kaoru, the only thing that was keeping sane. I was going to die...No doubt. Using all my energy I had left I pushed myself up. Gasping in pain. I was only inches from him. I leaded forward, our lips touched. His lips were so soft, he wrapped his arms around me and pulled me into his body, deepening the kiss. We brook away from each other. My body lighter and warmer, butterflies filled my stomach.

"By the way if you need to stop following people, it's getting kind of stalkerish" I said trying to sound strong, instead it came out raspy and quiet. I could feel myself slipping.

"Alex stay with me." I could hear Kaoru say, but it was distant. I watch enough doctor shows to know that there was no point in fighting. I let myself go, as I slipped into the darkness.

Casey POV:

My eyes widened as I stared at Megen's still form on the ground, hoping that she would stand up. That she would cough or move or do something to show me she was alright. But she just lay still and my vision clouded with tears as I watched Kaoru lean over her, clutching her head to his chest, tries streamed down his face. I heard shouts in the distance and barely registered the crowd of blue haired men that had shown up. I stared blankly at the ground below as blue met red in bloody conflict. My eyes traveled forward and I spotted the host club standing by Megen's...body. I locked eyes with Kyoya's and felt my tears finally overflow. The ferris wheel pod finally reached ground again and the red haired man pulled me out roughly.

"Stay here." He rushed off to join the two warring tribes in the fight. I staggered forward a couple of steps and the host club rushed forward to grasp my arms comfortingly. I shrugged them off and continued forward, just wanting to get away from the lifeless body Kaoru still clung to. That wasn't Megen...that wasn't my friend. Megen was lively and clumsy and funny. That...body...was cold and unmoving. I cried silently as my throat constricted painfully and I looked up to see a blue haired man point a gun at me. My eyes widened but I didn't move, petrified by fear and sorrow. I heard the guys shout behind me, but the man already pulled the trigger. Pain exploded in my chest and everything became a blur of color and noise until it all faded away.
