Chapter 2 Run Away
The extra eye Hiei had began to glow, then my vision went all funny, like I was looking through glasses with blue lenses. As I looked around everything was in blue tint, then I heard it, a strange voice. / "Guide the black dragon!" / I looked around with my blue vision and saw nobody other than Kurama and Hiei. Again the voice cried out. / "Hurry before it's too late! Control the black Dragon, lest you all perish!"/ //What? Okay already, what do I do?" // / "Focus on the black scar on Hiei's arm."/ //Okay? I'll try. // And so I did, and on an impulse I removed my glove revealing a bluish scar resembling Hiei's black dragon. I felt Kurama step back in surprise. He was saying something to me but I didn't hear him, I was focusing on the black dragon on Hiei's arm.
Then Hiei launched the black dragon at the Cerberus, but he looked at it surprised. It had come out with blue rings around it. The Dragon of the Darkness Flame soared to the Cerberus and the giant demon dog was destroyed on impact. But instead of vanishing like it usually did once the attack was over the black dragon remained. Hiei stepped back as the dragon approached him. The huge dragon was barely a foot away from him before it stopped and looked my way. My blue vision had begun to fade and I saw the dragon slowly soar over to me. I looked at it curiously as it stopped a foot away from me. Kurama had gone over to see if Hiei was okay. I looked into the eyes of the dragon, heart beating like a hummingbird's. Slowly I reached out a hand and stopped it an inch from the dragon's snout. The blue energy surrounding it slowly started to move towards my hand and off the dragon. When the last bit was off it, the black dragon vanished and the blue energy started taking form.
The energy had started taking the form of a blue dragon, but this one had wings instead of the long slinky serpentine the black dragon had been. The image roared before vanishing in the same manner of the black dragon. "Okay, to you I might sound stupid, but what just happened?" I asked in a shocked voice. Kurama helped Hiei walk over to me, "Uh?" He said looking at Hiei who just shrugged as he tried to stand. "I've never seen anything like that, my dragon has never come out with blue rings around it, nor stayed after it destroyed what it was called to destroy." Hiei said. I looked over to him and Kurama; Hiei looked in really bad shape. Kurama glanced at me curiously but when I returned his glance he looked to the side as if looking at me was dangerous.
I shrugged it off and pulled the glove back up my arm, but not before Hiei got a good look at it. "What is that?" He said watching it disappear under the glove. "Uh, nothing. Just a scar from me doing something stupid as a kid." I said in a rushed voice, which made him give me a skeptical look, fortunately he didn't press the matter, nor did Kurama. I stood up and began to walk away from them, looking at my newly acquired charm bracelet. The book charm was back on there. I could hear their footsteps, following me so I broke into a run. I still don't know why I ran, probably because whenever something strange happened we had to move. //Why does all this stuff have to happen to me? I never asked to be a freak! // I screamed in my head, running faster from an invisible enemy, my fears and myself.
I kept running, the footsteps of Kurama were no longer audible, so I thought I had lost him. I looked around and stopped running. I was lost. // Great, I'm just genius of the year, I ran away from people willing to help me in a place I have no clue how to get around in! Yes, I get genius of the year. Oh God, why does my life always go wrong whenever it looks like I can lead a normal life? // I sat down on the roots of one of the huge trees and brought my knees under my chin staring out into the strange world. I started to play with the charm bracelet. "So . . . Are you ready to go back to your world?" Came the familiar voice of Kurama. He came into view and stooped down so our eyes connected. I just blankly stared back at him.
He smiled and took my hand so the both of us stood up. I saw Hiei walk towards us. "Hiei, are you going to stay here then?" "Yes, I see what I can find then I'll contact you." Kurama nodded. I watched Hiei vanish in a split second, which left me blinking to see if my eyes were okay. "Wow, he's fast." I said. "Yes, he is." Kurama put his hand on my injured side and I felt a warm sensation. I looked down and the only trace that I was hurt was the dried blood on my clothes, which also disappeared. He smiled at my surprised expression and he led me forward. I blinked and I found myself in the same dusty classroom. Kurama was nowhere to be seen, but there was a beautiful red rose in the place of his hand.
Smiling I heard a bell ring and I rushed out of the room. I looked around at the mass of students; everybody was grabbing coats and backpacks. //School must be over already. // I thought as I pushed my way through the crowd to my locker. I finally got to my locker and forced it open. I grabbed my books and went to apologize to all my teachers for skipping class. //Yeah, they'll believe me when I tell them I went to a world called Makai full of demons and other strange creatures. *Mental sigh* // I was about to open the door of the class that I would have went to for 4th hour when the door opened and the three kids I had run into in the hall came out. "So that's why Ixi wasn't present for her first day, thank you for excusing her." The girl, Keiko, said waving to the teacher as she walked out the door. "Oh hey Ixi." She said brightly. "Uh, Hi?" I said confused. "Don't worry all your teachers excused your absence." I simply stared blankly. "Kurama told us all about the accident about you getting into . . Makai" She whispered the last part. 'How do you know-?" Yusuke grabbing my arm and dragging me to the gates of the school cut me off. "Don't ask to many questions yet. I promise everything will be explained to you."
We kept walking and eventually I found myself in park. I was dragged to a secluded spot where we obviously wouldn't be over heard. I looked around once I was seated and the next thing I saw was Kurama. In the flesh and in my world. After that I blacked out.
*~*
"You blacked out!?" Rayden exclaimed. I chuckled, "Yes, and you probably would too. A lot of things happened to me that day." He got a funny look on his face a mixture of surprise, embarrassment, and disbelief. "Those weren't the only monsters in the story were they?" He asked to change the subject. "Well you would find out if I continued wouldn't you?" I taunted him, "So may I continue or do you have more questions?" "No go ahead." "Okay, as I said I blacked out . . ."
*~*
I groggily opened my eyes looking around, the first face I saw was Kurama and I shut my eyes again. //This is just a black out dream, Kurama doesn't exist, nor does Hiei or anything else I saw today when I blacked out in that classroom. Yep just a dream, kids and our over active imaginations, too much sugar, cartoons and video games for me. So when I open my eyes Kurama won't be there. // I opened my eyes and low and behold there was the same green-eyed, redheaded boy from my strange experience of today. "So much for that theory." I mumbled sitting up and looking around. I rubbed my head and fell back into somebody. I looked up to the lap I had laid my head in. The curly redhead uttered a laugh until my fist flew up slamming into his bottom jaw.
"You find something funny?" I hissed as he did the just-got-whacked- in-the-jaw-by-Ixi-dance. "No, not at all." He uttered as he fell over. I rolled my eyes and stood up about to walk away. "Where are you going?" Yusuke asked. "Home, my parents are probably worried sick and enough junk has happened to me for them to melt down even if I'm half an hour late." "They won't worry about you, we gave them a call to tell them you would be with some new friends for most of the evening." A blue haired girl said as she walked into view. "Listen, you FREAKS might find that little imaginary world of yours fascinating, but I would rather force today from my memory just like all the other stupid stuff that I've had to live through for my entire life. So bye." I waved and was about to leave when Hiei suddenly appeared in front of me. "STOP DOING THAT AND GET OUT OF MY WAY SHRIMP!" I screamed at him. "What if I don't want to?" He taunted me.
I tried to punch that stupid smirk off his face but before my fist reached his face he caught it and forced me back. I stepped back with the force but drew his attention off my right hand. I then proceeded to sucker punched the side of his face. Before he could regain the focus to stop me, I took off. I kept running, and I thought it was strange they didn't follow. I eventually slowed as I reached our apartment. I took out my key and let myself in. "Hello sweetie, how was your day?" Came my mom's voice from the kitchen. "Stupid." I muttered so she couldn't hear me. "How are your new friends?" "They aren't my friends mom. If they ever call here again alert the police." My mom's head popped out of the door of the kitchen, "What! Are you okay? Did they do anything to you?" She asked running out of the kitchen to see if I was all right. "I'm fine mom they didn't do anything but they aren't my friends. I don't have any friends."
My mom gave me a look of sympathy as I ran to my room and slammed the door. I looked to the unopened boxes and opened one of them. I looked through everything in there and found a new sketchbook. In the cover was a note from Kyle. 'Ixi, don't ever lose that fire in your eyes, that passion with your pen, or that love in your heart. With all my love, Kyle.' He had given it to me barely a week before the accident. I never saw him after that. Before I could stop myself tears began to fall down my cheeks. I buried my head in my pillow and let them fall. I heard a small knock on my door, "Ixi, sweetie, there is a boy named Kurama hear to return something you dropped." My mom's soft voice cried from behind the shut door. I sat up on my bed and wiped the tears from my eyes. "Tell him to beat it and leave me alone!" I screamed. I ran over to the door and locked it. I slid down the door and listened to the conversation between my Mom and Kurama. "I'm sorry about that." "No it's okay, I think I sort of scared her today when we met. Here she dropped this in the park." "Thank you." I heard the main door click as Kurama left. My mom softly knocked on my door. "Here sweetie, he gave me this. It's your locket." I opened the door and snatched the locket from her hand; I slammed the door in her face and relocked the door.
I heard my mom silently sigh and walk back to the kitchen. I grabbed a book bag and stuffed it full of clothes, and treasured items. Once that was filled I grabbed the sketchbook and an extra pair of shoes. I went out on my balcony after writing a note to my mom. I looked down to the ground. // Two stories, not a big jump. // I climbed down the iron railing and as silent and graceful as a cat, fell to the balcony below me. I did the same to reach the ground. I adjusted the heavy bag on my back and began to walk. I took one final look to the apartment, and my past before speeding up. I put on some sunglasses and looked on a map of the city. Suddenly I felt like I was being watched and I looked up. Nobody peculiar stood out so I looked back to my map, again I felt like I was being watched, so I began to walk.
