Chapter 10 – Running Away
I knew I was awake, so I shot my eyes open and sat up and placed my hand on my head.
'This is it!' I thought as i got up from my bed, rushed to my closest and grabbed a huge bag. I made my way to my drawer and stuffed a few clothes and went to the bath room for my other things, as quickly as i can. Soon, the bag was full and I didn't have time to waste. I checked the time and it read 6:45. I nodded my head once and grabbed a piece of paper and pencil. I wrote a quick letter, and folded and quietly but quickly sneaked into Mai's room so I wouldn't waste time. I held the note close to my chest and placed it down on the table next to her bed while she sleeps. As I walked out the door, I turned around and closed the door. I got my bag and quietly went out the door. I bowed down in front of my house and started running to the forest.
~Tamaki's POV~
"Excuse me, but you have an urgent call from someone." One of my maids called. I grabbed the phone and as I listened, my eyes widened. I nodded my head as I hung up the phone and quickly called everyones house and told them everything that i know. As soon as i finished that and dressing up, I went to Mai's house. When I reached there, I opened the door to see everyone there already.
"What do you mean, she ran away?" I asked. Mai looked down and passed me a note.
Dear Mai,
Im sorry but I can't handle anything anymore, so I ran away. I'll be safe, so don't worry about me. I just hope you'll be okay. I'll miss you.
Love, Machina/Mo
My eyes widened as I finished the note. Mai started crying and so did Mitsukuni.
"She decided to run away instead of coming back to school with a decision." Kyouya stated. I checked the clock and it read, 7:15.
"Come on, she couldn't have gone far!" I yelled. We all ran around the city looking and calling for her name. Yet no sign of her, and no body's seen her yet. We all met back at Mai's place.
"Did you find her?" I asked. Everyone shook their head so I looked down and thought.
"Where could she have gone?" I whispered to myself. Kaoru then started walking to me.
"She did say that she wanted to go the forest." He started.
"She could have gone there." Hikaru added.
"Alright, The forest is a tough place to look, so we will all stick together!" i yelled. They nodded their heads and started running to the closest forest.
~Machina's POV~
I finally reached the forest and watched out for tree's while I run away. I started remembering everyones faces and a tear slipped down my cheek. I closed my eyes and continued to run away.
"Im sorry." I whispered to myself. I finally came to stop to take a break and as I sat down, I heard a few voices. I quietly walked my way there and saw about 4 guys. 2 where bare, and the other 2 had guns. I quietly listened to what they were saying.
"Jeez. You need to have better aim. You almost shot my arm!" one guy yelled.
"Well, sorry! Then you use the gun!" they argued.
"You know what I want right now?" A different voice was heard. It was silent. I didn't want to hear anymore, so I decided to continue running away. But as I stepped back, I stepped on a stick that made a loud cracking noise. I quickly looked up with a shocked face and all the guys say me.
"Hey!" they yelled. I started running away and when I turned my head around, they were chasing me back.
"Come back, sweet thang!" they yelled. I started running and I was getting tired.
"We just wanna talk to you!" they yelled again. I shook my head as I ran.
"No! Just leave me alone!" I screamed. All of a sudden i heard gun shots.
'Theyre shooting at me!' I though as i tried to dodge the bullets that where coming at me. I also covered my ears, because the gun shots were really loud. I didn't want this; I didn't think this would happen.
'Im scared!' I thought. I finally came to a cliff that ended. As i walked to the edge I saw a river rapid. It also looked pretty tough, because it had rocks and stuff.
"Oh no, I can't even swim!" i yelled. I turned around and stayed at the edge. The guys were now just walking to me smirking and sticking out their hands towards me.
"Leave me alone!" i shouted. The guys started laughing and i just bent down and held my head. My heart started pounding hard cause I was so scared. I didn't know what to do. All of a sudden I looked up to see Tamaki right in front of me, and the other members behind the 4 guys.
"I guess we came at the right time." Tamaki teased. I smiled a little and Haruhi walked up to us.
"We don't want you to leave." she said. I looked down, still deciding if I want to do this. Tamaki and Haruhi walked back to the 4 guys as i just stayed at the edge and watched them. They started talking and I placed my bag on the ground since it was heavy.
"Hey, wheres the 4th guy?" Hikaru asked. All of a sudden I heard a low scream and when i looked to my side, the guy with no guns pushed me off the cliff. My eyes widened as I fell but Tamaki ran and grabbed my hand, and grabbed the edge of the cliff. But it started crumbling and when it did, he quickly grabbed onto a branch that was a few feet away from the edge.
