AN/:/ Ok, This chapter may seem a bit weird at the beginning. It sort of starts off as a police report...or something along those lines and extends over a couple of weeks. It isn't so good, and I might end up changing it...but...It will have to do for now! And thank you all so very much for reviewing and being patient with me. I would have gotten this up sooner...but...well. I had problems.
Warning: Typos... I accidently...er... Forgot to spell check. .

(AN: Thought that was the end did ya? I know its all creepy huh? They died and stuff... well... actually... I'll tell ya a little secret. THEY DIDN'T! MUHAHAHAHAHA! cough ok. Here we go. This is next.... )
Numb. That's all I could feel. I felt numb all over. Especially in the stomach area. I heard birds chirping and leaves rustling. Where was I? My eyelids fluttered as I tried to open my eyes, at least just a little. I succeeded in opening them. I immediately saw treetops. It looked as if I was in a forest.
I slowly lifted my numb, bruised and cut arm to my stomach. I felt a hole in my shirt, causing me to immediately sit up. I winced and my hand shot straight to my head where I got dizzy. I pulled my hand away and looked at it, blood.
I blinked slowly and looked down at my stomach. I was still wearing the same thing when I died. I still had a hole in my shirt and blood smeared around the area where the bullet entered, causing me to die. I froze, suddenly remembering exactly what happened.
I died. Shock paralyzed me for a moment before I finally shook my head slowly and looked down again, immediately searching the hole in my stomach. There wasn't one. I'm alive. How? That was one question that I knew would remain a mystery to me for quite a while.
I slowly closed my eyes and just listened to my surroundings. Birds. Leaves. Nature. I loved nature. I smiled slowly to myself then opened my bright navy blue eyes again and looked down at my broken arm that was in a homemade cast. I then looked at my other arm. It was bandaged all the way up the shoulder, all the way from my wrist.
I stared at it for a moment. Remembering exactly how I got it. I shook my head vigorously then instantly regretted doing so when I felt dizzy once again. I closed my eyes tight. I still felt numb. Not my body. But my soul. My soul and heart felt numb from everything.
I lost everything. My friends. Dezzi. My..... Life. I opened my eyes. No. I'm still alive so I didn't lose my life, only what I thought it to be. I frowned deeply. Somehow I just knew, wherever I was, I would be safe from harm. At least for a while.
I just wished I could have Dezzi with me. She was my best friend, my sister. I shook my head again, not wanting to dwell on those thoughts any longer I slowly stood and steadied myself. I stumbled over to a tree and leaned against it. My eyesight was blurry.
I waited there until my eyesight returned to normal and I was no longer dizzy. My body hurt like hell, but at least I was alive. I looked over at where I lay, there was a pool of blood. I winced at the sight, my blood. Oh joy. I sighed heavily and stumbled over, hoisting up my pack that just happened to be laying there.
Where was I going to go? Where was I? What was I going to do? Most importantly, why was I here? My eyes traveled to my hands. They were bloody. Hell, I was bloody. I took a deep breath then started walking forward. I didn't know where I was going, but I had to get out of this forest.
I traveled for a couple of hours at least. I looked up at the sun. It would start to set in about two hours in the least. I suddenly heard something ahead. It sounded like laughter and kids. My eyes narrowed just a bit before returning to there normal size. I walked forward and peeked through the bushes.
A Park. Great. How wonderful. I will be walking through a park, bloody and in pain. And to put it nicely, AROUND KIDS!! I let out a small inaudible groan before stumbling out of the bushes. I winced when my broken arm hit a branch, but I quickly ignored the pain, along with the pain all throughout my body.
Hell, I was still really weak. I didn't even know how I made it this far without collapsing. I stumbled forward and onto the path. I got stares and heard gasps and whispering, but I ignored it as I continued to walk, more like drag myself, forward. I walked through the park slowly before stopping at a tree. A willow tree. My lucky day.
I grinned and ducked under the leaves, hiding myself from view I collapsed then and there. Leaving myself vulnerable, but not out in the open. I fell asleep almost immediately, ignoring the pain again. After all, I've been doing that my whole life. I grinned slightly to myself.
I awoke to the sound of....silence? I blinked open my eyes and sat up, wincing in the process. I looked at my bandaged arm and broken arm then down at my gi pants, which were torn in certain places. I sighed and closed my eyes. Once thing I never told Dezzi or anyone for that matter, was I was exceptionally different from everyone else. I had powers.
I could make illusions and heal small cuts. But that was basically all I could do. Except for the fact that I could create objects out of thin air by just imagining it. The only thing I could make though, were clothes. Which was good enough for me. My other powers, well... I really didn't have a name for them. I simply learned them on my own free time. I sighed and quickly, but efficiently, changed my clothes with a snap of my fingers.
Next I ran my hand over my body, making the blood disappear from view. I looked at my broken arm then my bandaged arm, at least my shirt covered up my bandaged arm. I was wearing a red half peasant shirt. It didn't have a sleeve on my left side, which was my bandaged arm side. It didn't have a strap on that side for that matter. But on the right side it covered up my broken arm with a long sleeve that started to flow out at the elbow.
Next I wore black jeans that faded slightly and black boots. I sighed to myself and brushed my fingers through my messy hair. As I did so, my hair magically became neat. Although, it was simply an illusion.
I would have to get the necessary items so I wouldn't have to keep using my power. It took a lot of energy from me.
I sighed and left the comfort of my "home". As I walked to the exit of the park I looked around in interest at everything. It was quite a nice park. I soon reached the actual town and just strolled through it. I suddenly started to think, it wouldn't be such a bad idea to start going to school again. After all, I still had to finish High School, and maybe I could find a clue as to why I was alive and not dead.
With that thought in mind I asked for directions to the nearest High School and headed that way. I only walked for about five minutes before I came upon a big building. I looked up at it and smirked. School was out right now, but that was fine. This school was only about a fifteen minute walk from my "home".
I entered the big building and made my way to the office where I asked the secretary how I could sign in to be a student. She gave me all the necessary forms and I immediately filled them out. It only took me about thirty minutes tops. I looked out the nearby window as I handed the forms to her. The sun was setting. I should get "home".
She told me to come back tomorrow and handed over a uniform then shooed me off. I exited the building and walked back to the park. It was dark now, not overly dark, just dark. The sun couldn't be seen. I entered my "home" and lay down, leaning back against the tree wincing because of a bruise in the process. I quickly took the illusions off me and closed my eyes, drifting off into dreamland.
All night I woke on and off wondering just why I was here, and how long I had been unconscious, or... "dead". I couldn't figure it out. One minute I was in Dezzi's arms with her crying her heart out, the next, I wake up in a forest damaged. Not just physically, but emotionally. I felt numb inside. Like a part of me had been ripped away.
I awoke in the morning and quietly got up and dusted myself off as best I could. I quickly made a few illusions and sighed in annoyance at it all. Next I slowly put on the uniform. I looked down at myself disgusted. I hated skirts and uniforms.
I quickly made my way to the school and arrived a little bit late, but I didn't care. I suddenly did feel nervous but quickly pushed the feeling aside. I took a deep breath and entered the office to pick up my schedule. There was a boy there, but his back was turned so I couldn't see who it was. But I did here the name, since he was being yelled at by the principle. And once I heard that name I froze. I knew where I was.
"YUSUKE URAMESHI!!!! "That's exactly what I heard. I slowly took my schedule, as if in a daze. I blinked slowly, staring down at my schedule, but not really seeing it. How was I here? In this world? Just then I got an Idea. A brilliant idea. Or... at least I hoped it was brilliant. I would get Koenma to answer my questions. He had to know.
I quickly came out of my daze and walked out the of the office heading to my first class that I had. Literature. I knew it would definitely be different, after all, I was in Japan. Then a thought struck me, if I was in Japan, was I speaking Japanese? And could I still speak English? I blinked, tilting my head slightly, I just had a great Idea. How could I socialize if I couldn't speak their language? After all, not socializing is one of my best specialties, especially since I don't want anyone finding out anything.
I finally reached the class I was supposed to be in and knocked twice. The door opened up a minute later. An old professor with graying black hair stood there, he looked down at me. "Hello! You must be the new student I heard about! Come in, Come in! "I just stared at him as if he had grown two heads then slowly walked in when he motioned for me to.
I stood in front of the class and looked up at them with no expression on my face. I saw all they guys drooling over me and some girls glaring while others looked on friendly or enviously. Go figure, typical school. I stared at everyone, my eyes searching the classroom. My eyes found an orange haired ugly guy who Dezzi just happened to nickname, "Carrot -Top ". He was staring at me with hearts in his eyes.
I tried to control the urge to roll my eyes then let my eyes search again. They landed on a green eyed boy with rose red long hair. ' Kurama ' I thought with a smirk. Then looked away from him and walked to my seat without bothering to look at the teacher who had told me to introduce myself. I sat down in the back of the class.
"Can you.... Please introduce yourself Ms. Cloudi? " The professor asked. Oh how I so wanted to strangle him for getting my name wrong. But instead my eyes locked onto his own and I said in English and in a cold tone, "Leave me alone you dope and teach the class. And my name is Sora Cloude if your wondering. "
The professor just nodded smiling, and said in awkward English, "I sorry, I though you speak Japanese. I did not mean to offend. " I raised a brow and said, "Learn how to speak English correctly and I might forgive you. " He seemed to think that was a compliment and smiled widely then turned and started teaching the class. I finally did roll my eyes.
