Last time:
~Kouichi's P.o.V.~
I watched Tomoki's car drive away from my house through the window.
Suddenly, I watched as a shadow travel along the side of the road. Somehow, it didn't give me a good feeling. I rushed out the door, barely aware that my mother was telling me not to. Perhaps I had imagined it because once I was out the door, the creature vanished from sight.
~Normal P.o.V.~
Kouichi scanned the area, as if expecting something. After giving up and returning to his house, someone stepped from behind a tree and murmured "Kouichi Kimura.I'll get what I want from you if it's the last thing I do."
+++++++++++++++++++++ Chapter 4 - A Disturbed Heart
~Kouichi's P.o.V.~
*Dream*
I watched as darkness surrounded me. I called for help, but no one answered me. I saw my father, then my grandma, and lastly Kouji walking away, towards the light.
"Dad, Grandma, KOUJI!" I cried, "don't leave me."
Suddenly, all was dark. I heard a bodiless voice haunt me.
"Koou-i-chi."
"Who's there?"
"Koou-i-chi."
I shuddered. Immediately chains sprung from every direction and pulled me downwards. Then, I was plunging down an endless pit. falling.falling.falling.
*End of Dream* Then I woke up.
~Kouji's P.o.V.~
*Dream*
I was engulfed by the darkness. No one was around. 'Oh, great' I thought to myself. Suddenly I watched as Kouichi emerged from the darkness. He seemed sad and wanting to be telling me something, but I couldn't hear him.
"Kouichi?" I asked him.
He looked at me. Then chains sprung from all directions pulling him downwards into an endless, dark pit.
"NOOOOOOOO!" I shouted as I watched him sink farther and farther downwards.
I watched fearfully, but something aroused me. Somewhere far away hiding within the darkness. I saw a girl. she looked strangely familiar. but I couldn't place where I have seen her before. Suddenly, as if she sensed me watching, she ran away.
*End of Dream*
I sat up in my bed, drenched in cold sweat. Who was that girl? Why do I think I've seen her before?
~Normal P.o.V.~
"What the." a figure muttered as she stared up at Kouichi's window. 'Why did it seem like the presence of Kouji there when I only created an illusion to lure Kouichi.?' she wondered. 'I had only sent Kouichi the dream. Was it possible that Kouji and Kouichi could see into each other's dreams?' With a defeated sigh, she walked away.
~Takuya's P.o.V.~
"Takuya! Wake up!"
I groaned. "Another minute." I murmured into my pillow.
"TAKUYA!!"
I buried myself deep into my quilts.
"NOW!!!!"
"Alright, alright." I rolled out of bed and put on the usual clothes. I looked at the time and felt my jaw drop. I had 3 minutes to get to school!
I ran into class, just to hear the bell ring as he sat down. I sighed with relief and looked over to greet my friends. He stared at Kouji who looked as though he hadn't slept in weeks.
"Er. Kouji?" I asked.
"Hmm.?" he yawned. "Oh. I just didn't sleep very well last night." I looked around for Kouichi, who was sitting at the farthest desk away from the teachers. He had his head hidden behind a pile of books. I suspected him to be sleeping and thought, 'That's strange, Kouichi never slept in class before. Nah, that can't be right. Maybe he was studying really hard for an upcoming quiz. Yeah, that's right, a test!'
He turned his attention to Mr. MacDonald who was talking about Advertisement and how many kinds there were.'well, perhaps it is a bit boring,' I thought.
"Minamoto! Welcome back to class," Mr. MacDonald informed him as he blinked in a confused manner. "Go to the office and explain your behavior to the principal, Mrs. Wendy." Kouji nodded, wearily and headed towards the office. Mr. MacDonald watched him as he left, worried.
'He sure seems tired,' I thought.
"Please take out your homework on Page 243 questions #1-50. I'll be coming around to check that you've all done it," Mr. MacDonald demanded. His words were followed many groans.
'Shoot,' I thought, 'he usually never checks homework, why today? The only person who would probably be finished is Kouichi. and Kouji of course but he's not even here.' Quickly, I tried my best to copy from Kouji's notes, only able to get to #10 when Mr. MacDonald came around.
"Takuya, I'm impressed, you actually ten questions," Mr. MacDonald replied, pleased. "You didn't happen to copy them from Kouji now did you?"
I shook my head and masked my guilt with what I hoped to be an innocent expression. Mr. Macdonald stared at me hard and moved down the row. I heard him scold Denny who had left his notebook at home, and tell Miku that she should have wrote in ink and quickly copied the rest of Kouji's notes before I heard Mr. MacDonald speak again.
"Kimura, wake up." I turned around quickly to see Kouichi trying to stifle a yawn. "You might as well join your brother down in the office." Mr. Macdonald told him sternly.
~Kouji's P.o.V.~
While I was nodding off to sleep, I heard someone slide down next to me. I opened my eyes.
"Kouichi?" He looked pale and sick.
"Kouji?" He looked surprised, "why are you here?"
"Er. Mr. MacDonald found me sleeping in class, remember?" I replied sheepishly. "Why are you here?"
"Same reason, I guess," Kouichi yawned. I gave him a questioning look, but Kouichi took no notice of it.
"I had this strange dream," Kouichi told me suddenly. "Well, more of a nightmare, but I was surrounded by darkness. Then I saw dad, grandma, and you. Next thing I knew, I was bounded by chains and started falling, endlessly." He laughed weakly.
"Silly eh?" he remarked. I sat stunned. How was he able to have the same dream as I did? Was it a warning, or a threat?
~Kouichi's P.o.V.~
I felt stupid after I told my brother about the dream. I closed my eyes and tried to sleep.
"I had the same dream."
My eyes shot open. "What?"
Kouji was studying intently at a poster. "Except I was watching everything as it passed through my eyes. Not yours."
*silence*
Kouji suddenly sat up. "That girl!"
"Who?"
"I wasn't the only one watching. there was a girl there.hiding in the shadows, as if not wanting to be seen"
I replied, "This is too weird."
Mrs. Wendy, the principal appeared next to us. She stared at us. "You two look sick. Go lie down in the nurse's room, now."
"But--" Kouji and I both stammered.
"Now." She ordered with a firmness in her voice, and with that, she left.
~Izumi's P.o.V.~
I had a bad feeling for the twin after Takuya told me what happened to them.
"I know, it's weird," Takuya continued, "they never sleep in class." I nodded in agreement.
* After School *
~Kouji's P.o.V.~
I walked towards my locker, hoping not bump into my personal fan club. Accidentally, I collided into Izumi, causing her to fall on top of me. I blushed, in 5 shades of red.
"Oh, I'm so sorry," Izumi apologized, and then stammered, "Kouji?"
"Yeah, it's me." I told her. "Um. do you mind getting off me?" She blushed and quickly got off. I saw a bunch of my fans scowl at this. I grabbed my stuff from my locker and dashed out in search of Kouichi, before the fans tried to collide into me like how Izumi did.
~Izumi's P.o.V.~
I watched Kouji as he darted away and his fans glowered at me. I sun around and found Junpei looking worriedly at me.
"Did that boy hurt you?"
"No."
"You don't have to lie to me you know. I'll always be here for you"
"I said no!"
"I am going to beat up that kid right now. What's his name?"
I sweatdropped. 'I think Kouji would do more damage to you' I thought to myself. Junpei was looking around for Kouji when Takuya suddenly appeared next to me.
"Takuya!" I spoke rather loudly. "I need to ask you about my History homework!" I grabbed his arm and dragged him into the nearest classroom.
I sighed as I watched Junpei stalk angrily around and saw Kouichi emerge into view.
~Kouichi's P.o.V.~
"KOUJI!" he howled, "HOW COULD YOU STEAL MY IZUMI AWAY FROM ME!" With that, he burst into tears. "I challenge you to a fight!"
I stared at him, startled. "Izumi with Kouji?"
Junpei formed fists and put them up. "Trying to pretend to be someone else are you?" Dumbfounded, I raised my arms.
"Hey! I'm Kou--"
"Don't try to fool me! Trying to chicken out by surrendering eh? I KNEW it. You're nothing more than a cowardly dog."
A fist came out of nowhere and caught Junpei on the side of his head, knocking him unconscious.
~Kouji's P.o.V.~
I had to punch him although I regretted it after Kouichi explained to me what happened. At least I had a reason to hit him. He was insulting my brother. All of a sudden, Kouichi grinned.
"What's up between you and Izumi?"
"Pardon?!" I stared at him in alarm.
"Oh, I guess you don't have to tell me." He smirked, and walked off.
I stood there, as the wind blew against my face, speechless.
Authors' Note: Kate: Stupid Junpei. How could he mistaken Kouichi for Kouji? O.o idiot. I forgot. Kat: I know! Kouji's so much better looking!! :P hope you liked this chapter. R+R and CC! :] Kate: *Grrr.- ignores Kat* ANYWAYS.Kat's going to update some pictures soon. I'm begging her to color it first though. ta ta!!
