Chapter 25

Saki

Since Sanji and I got together I've been experiencing feelings that I guess is normal since I am fourteen. Puberty maybe. It was near spring. Finally. A normal nice day with Sanji. Nice all the way till we got to my locker. My sister departed from us, along with her 'boyfriend' Rider. My boyfriend went over the plans for our first date. Nothing seemed wrong. That is until I felt a hand grip my arm, pulling me away from Sanji. Against the wall I stared up at the angry eyes peering down at me. "I told you not to come near him!"

I pushed him off, rubbing my bruised arm. "For your info im not your property! Im not your girlfriend either. Im Sanjis. So bug off."

On the next slam I heard a shout from a far. Looking down the hall I saw Sanji glaring at the man who was touching me. Jin's hands crushed around my arms making me grunt in pain. He let go but not before he leaned closer to me to say, "You will pay for this. Severely child." He shoved me away then stormed off. In seconds Sanji was at my side. "He hurt you."

"Im okay…."

Okay for now but…not for long.

The next school day I felt eyes on me. The girls giggling at me. Or guys gawking at me. It was quite weird. "Why are people looking at me?" My answer was written on my locker in big black letters.

Asian Slut!

Go back to Japan!

I read over it a few times in my head before my sister stepped in front of me. Furious she turned to the people. "Alright who the hell did this!?" She yelled.

Not a soul answered. The tension felt thin. I suddenly felt enclosed by unknown people as I read my locker. I heard my breathing go a little more than usual. I felt hot. A hand on my shoulder pulled me back into what was going about. I looked up to see the principle looking down at me. The principle and I have a good relationship. The whole Copal thing made us close. I guess I consider him as one of my friends at times like those. The principle was a guy in his mid fifties. He had a sweet welcoming face every time I see him. It was like he was my savior in this messed up school, since he always helped me through trouble times. Principle read my locker with a frown before giving me a smile. "You know Saki….a trip to Japan would be ever so lovely. I hear its great this time of year." He gave me a small wink. Looking over at my still shocked boyfriend who's face was red with fury. "Sanji. Please take Saki to the nurses station. She looks a little pale. I don't need her fainting on me. While at the nurses Mitzuki and Rider will make effort to clean this off. I will notify your teachers immediately about you all whereabouts." Principle gave us a smile. Mitzuki wanted to protest I could really tell but one look over at me kept her silenced. Sanji led me to the nurses where I sat with Sanji waiting on the nurse to check me over.

"Saki…" I felt my boyfriend's arm hug my shoulder, getting closer to me. His big worried filled eyes stared down at me. I stared back. Looking in his ocean blue eyes was like jumping into the ocean itself. They tend to trap you up, and wash all your worries away just by staring at them. I told Saki that one time. He laughed denying everything, but I know Im right about his blue eyes. Its what made me so drawn to him. People with blue eyes tend to have blonde hair but him, he has black hair that slung to the sides of his face, his bangs long enough to cover his eyes were kept to the side -at least he attempts to keep them out of his face- but they most likely ended up in his face. "You shouldn't let this thing get to you okay?"

"What thing?"

He lifted his thin black eyebrow at me. "You know the whole…locker thing."

I blinked a bit realizing what he was talking about. "Oh! Oh that!" I got to my feet to stand in front of him. I hugged his neck. "Im fine with it. Asians apparently have been known to get attacked." I frowned. "Though Im more American then Asian."

"Right. That's why you should keep calm… High school is just filled with people who want to start crap."

I smiled at him. With a kiss I pulled back. Walking over to the big window that peered out to the schools football field. I watched the people run around the track, more of the students walked. Some didn't bother and kept to themselves at the bleachers. My dad always complained about those people, even though his daughter was one of them. I was never the athletic type since my heart has weakened over the years, I try at times I really do. Its just harder for me to do simple things such as running these days. Sanji soon joined me at the window. His hand plopped gently onto my head. Looking up I saw his face had worried written all over it as his eyes peered out. "Sanji."

He looked down at me. "Yes."

"Don't worry about me. As long as im with you I can handle anything." I smiled at him.

He gave me a grave look but said nothing as he turned back to the window, holding me close to him in the process.

As the week progressed the bullying got worse. It turned from writing on my locker to writing it on every girl's bathroom in the entire school. Staring at the mirror when I shuffled in with my friends I clenched my hands into fists. This mirror had published a death threat.

Dear Asian Slut. Aka Saki Collins,

If you don't leave school, we'll force your ugly ass out. You Asian have no right to be in our american school. So do us a favor!

Kill yourself.

-Love, Girls who are tired of seeing your fugly face.

I felt my sister's hand on my shoulder. Her face was set tight. Her fixed brown eyes on the mirror. I felt her hand tighten a little as her eyes read every word of it. I noticed Bailey, Summer, and Natalie were reading it to. All in a bit of shock that mixed with anger. My sister mutely started out the door, I followed scared of what she'd might do. "Where are you going Mitz?"

"Anyone who messes with my sister will get a beating of their god dam life!" She yelled through the halls, making sure everyone heard. I inched to her, grabbing her face so she was forced to look at me. "Calm down Mitz. Okay. They just want me to get mad. don't get mad. You'll only give them satisfaction." I whispered to her. Her face slowly turned calm. But it was a very slow process.

My sister knew a lot about bullying since not to long ago she was almost killed by jerks who hated her. Luckily Rider stopped them. I thank him for taking care of her but I cant forgive his actions. Seeing my sister cry destroyed me. It made me want to hit his face. Although over the past few weeks my feelings have changed about him since he's been taking care of her like he should. She claims she hates him but I really could tell she still has it in for him. Its hard to really tell with the girl sometimes. Walking with my sister we both stopped in our tracks when a girl and her posse stood in front of us. "So Asian did you get our message." I stepped in front of my already irritated sister. I held her at bay while staring at the Barbie in front of me. She had bleach blond hair. Her cold blue eyes peered straight at me. She was in a very short mini skirt, blue silk shirt and black stockings. Her hands were on her hips. "I hope you did. It might tell you something."

I sucked in my breath. Determined not to be dragged down by these people. "I did get it. I was told something."

"Good so how about you leave now-"

"No." I told her. She stared at me, taken aback. Remembering what my mother had said when I told her about my abusive boyfriend was easy. I kept her words close as I puffed up my chest. Got my feet apart, with clenched fists. Be proud of who you are. Be strong for the weak. Be brave for the cowards. Im sure once you stand up after falling down that you can make it. Make a difference for not only yourself. But for others who cant.

"Im proud of being an Asian. I'll be strong. I'll fight for my right to stay in this school. I'll brave up for all my friends. And even my boyfriend and wont let you or anyone get to me. I am Asian! I am American and I am fucking proud of it. I dated guys but I never once got in bed with them! I don't see myself as a slut and neither do the people who really matter to me. My friends and family. Meaning you people don't matter. Do whatever you want to me.

But I swear! I swear I wont fall. I wont break. I wont back down to immature ass wholes who have nothing better to do with their lives." I breathed in and out, trying to catch my breath. I grabbed my sister's hand, pulled her along as I trotted off towards second period. Leaving my well known fans behind me.

In Pajama's and wet hair up I was ready to get my homework over with. When I was on the tenth problem of my Algebra 1 homework I heard a rock at the window. Looking towards the window that looked over the front yard. Opening it up I saw nothing. Strange. I closed my window and got back to work. Ten minutes later I heard a clatter against the house. I looked over to my window to see guys opening my window. What the hell! Once they were in my room I stood up. Keeping my cool I stared at their grinning faces. "What do you want?"

"We want what you put out. Asian." One boy said, smiling. I recognized the boy. He was in my Algebra 1 class. I think his name is Tony O'Malley. The other two boys were also recognizable. "We want you to come with us." The boy with spiked hair told. He was in Biology. His name was Thomas Kindle. The third boy who had brown hair, looking very uncomfortable with being in a girls room. He was in Copal's class. His name was Scott Derby. He said nothing. Only stared at me with grave eyes. Be strong for the weak. Be brave for the cowards…. My mind said.

"You do know if my dad comes in here and sees you here you will die….or get charged with trespassing." I told them.

Tony laughed. He had shoulder length black hair. His hair looked greasy like always. He gave a foul sent to the room. Odor. "That's why we're taking you somewhere."

I widened my eyes. "What?"

"James now!" Tony ordered. I turned to get a glimpse of a boy who must of snuck in another way. He had blonde hair. I saw only him before feeling a hit and drifting into darkness.

Fading. My heart felt faint. I need my pills….I need….my life…

Mitzuki

Not getting the math, and trying to ask for my parents help was getting me nowhere. My dad sucks at Math and my mother was to busy attending to my little siblings homework session. I just decided to get Saki's homework. Since she's the genius. Coming in her room I saw it was empty. This is my chance. I got to her desk. Copied her work then starting to leave something caught my eye. It was her curtain. It was flowing around a bit. Moving the fabric aside I saw her window was open. That's odd…. Odd since my sister was the clean up as you go, Clean before leaving for another thing and to close the windows at night. I leaned out the window. Looking side to side seeing nothing but dark houses, trees in random places. Cars parked in their drive ways. I frowned. Seems normal I thought. When looking down my eye caught sight of a fallen ladder. That was the lady's next door ladder. I stood up. Looking back at her neatly made room I scanned closely for clues. Her neat bed. Neat papers on her spotless desk. Her TV and laptop in place on her white dresser. The floor looked spotless except for some red liquid that laid on the floor. I kneeled down to it. Stuck my finger in it before analyzing it close. At first I thought it was juice she spilt but widened my eyes to see it was blood. I rushed into my room, stumbling over a pile of dirty clothes, on my desk I searched the clutter on top of it to find my phone. I called Saki. It rang. And rang. And rang. I looked over in Saki's room as I heard Saki's ring tone. I saw her phone on her charger that was next to her bed. It was on her table, moving with the vibrations. Hanging up I sighed. I bit my lip. Should I tell mom? Maybe Dad can do something. I thought as I paced. My brother works as a police officer now. Maybe he could help. Wait he's off duty. I sat on the foot of Saki's bed. Staring at the small splatter of blood on the floor. I bit my lip again. Right. I opened up my phone. I dialed the person who'd be helpful to me in these situations. "Hello." Rider said in a vexed tone. He also sounded like he was waking up. I bit my lip. "Rider." I voiced.

"Mitz!" His voice immediately brightened. "Why calling so late?"

"Im sorry. I need your help. Could you pick me up?" I asked, shuffling towards my room. I heard movement through the phone. He coughed. "Sure. Alright. I'll pick you up."

"Could you please hurry? Its an emergency." I added.

"Emergency?"

"I'll explain when I see you. Just please." I pleaded.

"Alright. I'll be there in five." He told before killing the line. I closed my phone. Got dressed, shoved my phone in my pocket. Got some shoes on and raced downstairs. Passing my parents was easy since they were too busy with my siblings. Great to have them at times like these. I quietly closed the door before running to Rider who leaned against his bike. He smiled at me. "Hey."

"Hi." I smiled back. He really was cute. His hair was damp. He was in a muscle shirt, with tight pants that really formed his rear, I noticed. His bangs hung on the side of his face as he peered down at me. He handed me a helmet. I took it. "I hate to ask this but could we pick up Sanji?"

"Sanji? Why him?"

"I'll explain it all while we grab a bite." I said.

He stared at me suspiciously but said nothing. "Hop on. Hold tight."

I hugged his waist as we made our way off.

"Hi. Is your brother home?" I asked the Older version look a like of Sanji. The man stared at us with wonder. "Isnt it late to be knocking on someone's door." He glared. I bit my lip.

"I know. Im sorry. Its an emergency!"

"What kind?" He asked sternly. He was no Rider. Rider would do anything for me no questions asked, which sometimes got on my nerves since it felt like taking advantage of him at times. This guy was determined to be difficult. I sighed. "Look his girlfriend, my sister is in trouble. I think."

The guy glared till he was shoved aside by a woman who had black hair. With blue eyes. Another look a like. But she was the female version. She looked at the boy. "Why are you so rude! God Caleb just go to bed."

"I cant now. Thanks to them my night is already off. No point of trying!" He threw his arms up in the air, theoretically. I rose my brow at the woman. She gave me a smile. "Don't bother with him. My brother is a drama guy. Im Karen. Sanji's older sister, the guy who was grumpy towards you is Caleb. My younger brother."

I gazed at her. She was in a silk robe that showed her curves. Her black hair flowed down her back side. Her smile was very bright. Pretty too. She stood aside. "Come on in." We did. She closed the door then led us to the living room. She smacked Caleb's head. He glared at her. "The hell woman!?"

"Make yourself useful and wake up Sanji."

"He has school!"

"Yes. But I heard the young lady. Saki could be in trouble. So go get him!" She ordered. After a few moments of a sibling stare down Caleb stomped off in grumbles. Karen sat down in a chair. "Sit." She gestured to us. I did. Rider leaned against the wall, closets to where I was sitting. She looked at him but said nothing. She stared at me. "You must be Mitzuki. Saki said she had a twin sister."

"Yes. I am. Um… hi."

She laughed a small one. Her laugh sounded really pretty. It was like a bubbly school girl kind of laugh. "Saki has told us all about you…."

"She did?"

"Yep. I can tell she adores you. You're the big sister right? Like minutes ahead of her right?"

"Right." I bit my lip. Talking about Saki made me wish I knew where she was. Karen noticed me biting my nails. "You worried?" She asked.

"Just about my sister."

"What's the matter….?"

Just then Sanji came out, dressed in a black shirt, and jeans. He had sneakers on. His hair was messy as all get out. His blue eyes stared at us with worry in them. "Okay im ready. Now lets go."

We were about to go till Caleb halted us by standing at the front door. "Not so fast. I need to know where the heck your going."

I bit my lip. "That's the problem sir. I don't know."

The eyes stared at me with quizzical looks. I sucked in my breath to let it out. "I don't know where she is. I have a feeling she's been kidnapped."

"How would you know? Maybe she went out to hang out with her friends or something." Caleb suggested. Karen shook her head. "Saki doesn't go out that much. The only time she does is to come over here to hang out with Sanji and us. And when the library's open." I stared at her. Puzzled. Karen gave me a smile. "Your sister and I talk a lot."

I nodded. I looked back at Caleb. "Plus her phone is still at home and her homework is still out and about."

"So."

"So my sister cleans up before she leaves a room. She takes her phone with her everywhere she goes. Her window also had been up, which she closes it every night."

"Maybe she forgot."

"That's what I thought. Till I saw the ladder under her window….."

Caleb stayed put, staring at us. Sanji growled. "Come on damn it my girlfriend is in harm and your only standing there!" That earned him a smack to the head.

"Shut up. Moron im thinking." He snapped. He looked at me. "I can help you track her down."

Relived to hear it I smiled ready to know where my sister was.

Hang on Saki!

Scott

It was painful to watch a girl get hit and cant do a damn thing about it. This Saki girl was a strong one. She was bloody from head to toe and she still didn't give in to these idiots. Hell I don't even know why im here. Maybe they'll kick your ass. Right.

"Scott!" Tyler called. I looked at him. He gestured for me to come to him. I did. "Maybe you'll get some sobs out of her."

"Tell me why are we making her cry?"

"So she can swallow her all mighty ass down the toilet. She'll have to break sometime."

Saki just stared at us. Her eyes had anger in them. Her hair was natty and dry now, it was falling in her face as she kept moving her head down. She was wiggling against the chains that looked a little to tight on her. Her wrists were already bleeding. Her head had streaks of blood running down. She was in her underwear, those chains were cutting into her skin. Her bare legs had bruises all over them, along with her arms. It made me sick to be apart of this. She looked over at me with pained eyes. No not pained eyes. Pleading eyes. She was silently pleading me to help. "Here have fun." Tyler handed me a crowbar. "I want to see her tearing up."

"You can do it!" Tony cheered.

"He has to do it. No matter what." Thomas said. Looking at me with a sly smile. "Aint that right Scottie."

I glowered at him then stared at the young lady in front of me. Her face looked red. Her body was jerking, not from struggle though. From something else. I felt her head. Fever. Her body didn't look so good. And she's sweating. Not good. She must take medicine to keep her health stable. I have to do something…. I help up the crowbar. I stared at the brown eyes of the girl. She almost looked defeated but tried to cover up at how much she was hurting right now. I raised the crowbar towards her but I hit my read target in the head, knocking him out cold. Tyler. The others gasped then darkened their stares at me. "You traitor!"

I turned to block Saki. Looking back at her I smiled at her. "I'll make this quick. Try to hang in there."

Her eyes widened, clearly shocked. I looked back at the angry boys. "How dare you hurt our boss!" James snarled.

"How dare you hurt a young woman! She did nothing to you!" I yelled.

"She needs to be in her place. She thinks she's so high and mighty. We need to teach her a lesson." Tony explained.

"That's a load of bull! You just wanted to torture a poor innocent girl for your stupid desires. I wont go for it! Kill me! I don't care. But I will protect her from scumbags like you."

"You ass whole!" Thomas charged for me. I slammed the crowbar hard on his head making him fall to the floor.

"This girl is dying as we speak!" I yelled, charging at James, knocking him to the wall. Slamming my crowbar against his head. I then slammed the runaway Tony to the ground. I dropped the crowbar after getting to Saki's side. I let the chains loose. Untapped her mouth then covered her up with my jacket. I kneeled down. "Get on my back."

"What?"

"I'll take you to the hospital."

"But…why?"

I looked back at her once she was settled on my back. I put my arms under her for complete support. "Why?" I rushed out the warehouse and grabbed my bike. "Wrap your legs around my waist miss."

She did. She hugged my neck tighter. I could hear her breathing increase. She was getting worse by the minute. I got on and started for the street. "Why…why are you being so nice to me….I thought….I thought you wanted me to cry…."

I stared straight ahead, moving my legs. Keeping my breathing steady. I head hers though. And rapid breathing wasn't good for the heart. She could get a heart attack from the condition she's in. "I never liked making girls cry. I see you through the halls. You seemed to like that boy a lot. Also you stay close to your friends. Your shy in class. You're a nice girl who got herself in a bad situation. Im a messed up boy who doesn't want anybody hurt. Especially a rare girl like you. Now just focus on your breathing. Close your eyes and I promise you'll see your friends soon."

I didn't hear anything else after she said in a small voice. "Thank you…." It sounded as she was crying. Was she? Once at the hospital I took her in to get checked. Told the nurses everything. A few tests later A nurse led me to a room. "Why am I here?"

The nurse smiled at me. "Ms. Collins wants to see her rescuer."

I blushed. I entered to see the girl from earlier sitting in the bed. A gown covering her. Her forehead had a gauze on the corner, where her cut had been. Her wrists were bandaged up. She seemed better than before. Her smile was blinding. It soothed me when I entered the room. Unsure of what to do.

She stared at me. "I wanted to say thank you properly."

"No need."

She shook her head. She got out of her bed and came up to me. "If it wasn't for you. I'd be dead."

I bit my lip. "I called my sister. My boyfriend and her are on their way. It seems they been out most the night searching for me. My parents got word that I was missing…..They're on their way also. I want to tell them that you rescued me."

I stared at her then gave her a small smile. "Im okay with being unknown."

"They'll ask how I got free. I have to tell them about you."

"If that's what you want but….I wont be sticking around. Look I just stuck around to make sure you were okay. Now that you are I'll take my leave."

"Wait." Her hands hugged my arm. I stared at her. "If you ever find yourself in trouble….feel free to talk to me."

I smiled at her. Laid my hand on her head. "Yes… I knew you were a rare girl in this world. Be safe Saki. And stay strong for the weak…and brave for the cowards."

Her face grew red. "You heard that?"

"Everyone who isn't groupies of the preps, jocks and psychos heard you. You're the inspiration girl." I smiled. "See you around." I gave her a hair ruffle then left. Before going I noticed tear stains on her cheeks. "So you were crying." I mumbled.

"What?" She blinked.

I gave her a smile. "Nothing. Stay safe." I told her before heading off with my head high. Ready to be free of that stupid gang….

Ready to feel better with my life. Staring ahead. Walking towards my fate. Whatever happens. I have her words to pull through..

Ready to be strong for the weak. Be brave for the cowards….

That girl taught me how to be strong and brave again….

Thank you. Saki…

Well I think that chapter was exciting. Don't you? I actually made Scott appear on purpose….Can we say Bailey and Scott anyone?

I might add a few more characters like Racer and Sheen. Although im not for sure. But I hope you enjoy! And the next chapie will be soooo cute. At least I hope lol.
