Author's notes: I am SOOOOO sorry I haven't updated in so long. I have been so busy with school work. I will try to update more often. Please review and tell me what you think^^

Sana looked around nervously as she walked towards the now foreboding school from Rei's car. 'I saw something that I shouldn't have' she thought nervously. 'And he knows. What am I going to do?' She was also on edge because of the horrible dream she had had last night. She had not had a bad dream since she was five years old.

"Have a good day." Rei said with a smile. The manager's superficially happy smile covered his worry over the abrupt change in Sana's usually happy personality. He couldn't think of any reason that she would be unhappy because of starting school. Two of her best friends were in her class, plus she had even met some other girl who she was now friends with. He couldn't think why she had suddenly become so depressed since school had started.

"umm, Bye Rei………" Sana Said nervously. She walked towards school.

"Hey! Sana, over here!!" Sana turned, relieved to see her friends walking towards her.

"hey guys." She replied, sighing.

"Yo, We missed you yesterday." Kiwari said "Nothing happened, did it?"

"n-no, I'm fine" Sana stuttered. She caught Kiwari and Umi sharing a look, but they didn't push the subject. The trio walked in through the school's front door, and went towards there homeroom classroom. Sana entered the room nervously, glancing around for Hayama an inconspicuously as she could. Surprisingly, he was nowhere to be found. His black haired friend, Tsuyoshi, however was walking straight for her. He stopped in front of her, glancing around.

"umm, Hi, your Sana Kurata, right?" He asked, looking nervous. Sana's earlier fear pushed its way into the back of her mind for when she would meet Akito, and her usual outgoing personality surfaced.

"Not going to ask me for my autograph, are you?" she said with a wry smile. Tsuyoshi shifted from one foot to the other, looking uncomfortable.

"umm, n-no, I just wanted to apologize for my friends behavior yesterday."

"Oh. Do you know were he is today?" she asked.

"no……."  Tsuyoshi replied. The bell rung, and their conversation was cut short, as they scrambled for seats. Sana managed too sit down next to Kiwari and Aya, just as their teacher walked into the room. The rest of the day was a complete bore for Sana. She walked through her usual monotonous routine with her eyes glazed over, as though even though she was in the classroom. Her mind was somewhere else. It was a relief to her when it was finally time to go home. She walked with her friends, answering their questions with a vague nod, or a smile, but her mind was elsewhere.  She walked into her house and fell into a deep sleep after collapsing on her bed in exhaustion. She woke up at five. Rei and her mother had gone to attend a dinner at one of Mariko's friend's houses, so Sana was alone in the house.

She yawned and got out of bed, making her way blearily to the kitchen, she found a note from her mother:

"Went to the party I told you about, order pizza or something, love mom^_^" Sana sighed. Just like her mom to leave her some money and a vague note and tell her to fend for herself. The phone rang, making her jump. It took a moment for her to react, before racing to find the source of the annoying ring, breaking the tranquil and somewhat eerie silence of the empty house. She picked up the receiver cautiously.

"H-hello?"

"Sana, Right?" The voice on the other ed of the line was familiar, and it made Sana's heart jump. Akito.

"yeah." She replied, trying to sound as casual as possible.

"You have no idea what your dealing with. Stay out of my life and you won't get hurt." He said, his voice ringing with seriousness. By now, Sana was sitting on the floor, trying to control her trembling. While he terrified her, His voice also intrigued her.

"I-I don't know what your talking about." She stammered. "Stay out of what?"

"You don't know what you saw! If you tell anyone…… I'll……..I'LL KILL YOU!!!"

The line went dead.

Sana just sat for a moment, dimly holding the receiver. His voice………The last thing he said to her, the death threat, held the feeling of desperation and vulnerability. Sana was still clutching her mother's dinner money in her hand, only, she wasn't hungry anymore.

Suddenly, the doorbell rang.

Sana jumped for the second time that night. She cautiously made her way to the door. The shivered at more than just the cold draft coming through the cracks in the door. She reached out a trembling hand for the doorknob, and wrenched open the door.

Kiwari stumbled into the room, looking as though she'd been through hell and back.

"Sana………." She said, her voice a weak plea…………

Then she fell, unconscious to the floor.
