OK, I decided to go ahead and post my second chapter. It's short anyway, so
I just couldn't wait! Er....this chapter is basically about Katzuyuki. You
should still read it, though, because you get introduced to my own
character. Read it Kudasai!!!

Chapter Two: Katzuyuki's Room
The teenage girl sat quietly in the chair, looking out the window. Her amber eyes searched the horizon intently, but found nothing. Just the trees that surrounded the huge house she was trapped in. The window had been securely sealed, so that all she could do was look out. She had tried to sneak out of this window, but it was too secure.
As Yuki stared out, her mind blank, the shadows lengthened. The sun sunk lower into the horizon. It was about three hours until sundown The brown- haired girl sighed and turned her gaze to the room.
The walls of the small room were barren, and the room itself was free of any decoration. Hajime had taken all of the things out of this room so Yuki could not use anything as a weapon.
There were two doors in her room, and one always remained locked. You'd think that a girl with a physic power would be able to break down the door, but a charm had also been placed on it, and try as she might she could not get through unless she was with Hajime or one of the guards.
The other door led to a small closet. Like the room, the closet was bare and empty. There was no light in it. Yuki liked to go in and sit, just to try and get away from everything. She lost herself in that darkness, leaving everything behind her. It was nice.
She heard a soft tap on the door, the click of the lock being pushed back, and the soft muttering of words to break the charm upon the door. Then one of the guards' heads popped in.
"Hajime told me to bring you something to eat." he said.
"I am not hungry." Yuki replied, turning to the window again.
"I'm only following orders." The guard said. He stepped in and put a small tray on the floor. "Finish your dinner then knock on the door softly when you're through."
He turned and left.
Katzuyuki looked at the tray on the floor. A small bowl of rice, some tea, and a small steaming bowl of vegetables. She picked up the bowl of rice and started eating.
When she was finished, she picked up the tray and set it down by the door. Then she stood up again and raised her hand to knock on the door. The guard's words came back to her.
"...knock softly...."
She smirked suddenly. She pulled back her hand and pounded on the door as loudly as she could.
The guard bolted into the room.
"What the hell?! I said knock SOFTLY!! Are you trying to wake up Mr. Hajime?! He's taking his afternoon nap."
Yuki smiled her innocent little smile. "Oh, I'm sorry. I didn't mean to knock that hard. I just wanted you to hear it. Besides, it's awfully late to be taking a nap, don't you think?"
"Little brat. I can't wait until Hajime finally gets through with you." The guard removed the tray, mumbling to himself as he left.
Yuki sighed. Well, that had provided some entertainment for a bit. She sat down in a little corner by the window and put her head in her hands.
I wish I could get away, she thought. I hate it here......
Katzuyuki stood up, and looked out the window again. Still nothing. She grabbed the chair and kicked it. It didn't help. Leaving it lying at an odd angle on the floor, she returned to her corner and sat silently.

Oh, poor Katzuyuki!! Anyway, the next chapter will be more eventful, I promise. I think I'll go start it now, actually...Later, all!! *shuffles off*
