Me: Yeah... my computer was being mean when I posted the last chapter, so I guess I'll just post the shout-outs from both chapters here! ;

Chapter One Reviews:

Sreym: I'll try to do that. Thanks for the tip. ;

Slain: Really? I got a few ideas from other fanfics that I read, and a bit from my insanity. Insanity rules all.

Jorgitosbabe: Lol, thanks. Well yeah, there's chapter 2 somewhere back there.

YellowCrimsonforever: Lol. I might have been a bit sad myself when I wrote Chapter 1, but yeah. I think it turned out pretty good too. 3

Crimson kittycat: I wasn't going to update it at first, but I decided to since reviewers, like you, said that I should continue it. nn;

CamFan4Ever: Awe! Dun cry! ;-; It'll make me cry, then my family will think I'm crazy because I'd be crying for some random reason... and yeah, we don't want that to happen. o.O;

Crimson-Ranger: ; You're welcome, and thanks.

Chapter 2 Reviews:

CamFan4Ever: Yeah, Dustin lives. What kind of person would I be if I kept him dead? O

Crimson-Ranger: Even if you didn't type 'just kidding', I'd know that you were kidding. Oooor I would think of you as more insane than I have come to think.... Nah.

Jorgitosbabe: -squeaks at the yelling- Yeah, here it is. Thanks by the way. ;

Garnetred: -shall not comment on that- xP Although I already did... Darnit! x.o;

And now, without further adieu. Here's the third chapter! ;

Dustin was running. Where he was running, he didn't know. He ran as fast as he could with tears streaming down his face. Then all of a sudden, he tripped and fell onto his front side, just lying there. The darkness behind Dustin seemed to grow larger, calling out small whispers to Dustin. "Surrender Dustin... you'll never get rid of us..." the voices called. Dustin clapped his hands over his ears then shouted, "Stop it! Just leave me alone!" "We'll never leave you... we're always with you, watching your every move...hearing your every thought-""Stop it!" Another river of tears flew down his cheeks. "Dustin..." "Stop it..." "Dustin." "No..." The darkness slowly started to cover his body, leaving a trail of icy cold. Dustin felt his breaths quicken as the darkness slowly devoured his body. "Dustin..." Dustin, feeling a weak, managed to turn himself over onto his back and see who called his name that time.

He saw Hunter standing over him with countless amounts of concern in his blue eyes. Dustin, at that moment, wished so much that his cheeks weren't stained from his tears. The silence continued on, while the darkness slowly crept up his chest. "I... I got your note," Hunter said to break the silence. At that, another round of tears flew down Dustin's cheeks. Dustin shut his eyes tightly trying to hold the tears back; badly wishing that the darkness would quicken it's pace. He heard Hunter kneel beside him and put his hand on Dustin's cheek, wiping away the tears with his thumb. Dustin shivered slightly, feeling Hunter's warm breath on his lips. Dustin felt his heart stop for a moment when Hunter's warm, tender lips fell onto his own. Dustin opened his eyes after Hunter pulled back and looked down at himself, noticing that the darkness was shrinking. "Dustin..." He smiled for the first time in a while, feeling the warmth and feeling coming back to his body. "Dustin." His smile widened when Hunter said those three little words that he's been waiting for, then moved his face up to let their two lips meet again.

"DUSTIN!" Dustin nearly fell off his bed in his hospital room from the sudden yell, spoiling his dream. When he finally managed to stand up without falling down, he saw that his doctor was standing there with an eyebrow raised. Dustin made his way back on the bed/chair and curled up away while the doctor asked him some questions, "Are you feeling better Mr. Brooks?" "Please, call me Dustin, and yes, I am feeling much better." "Alright then, Dustin. Have you experienced any headaches, dizzy-spells, or a stiff neck since you woke up?" Dustin thought for a moment then answered, "Nope." "Ok. Looks like you're good to leave now, Dustin," the doctor smiled slightly. Dustin made a slight fist-into-air movement then grinned slightly. Before the doctor left, Dustin had to ask him a question, "Hey, Doc. Do you know if a Hunter Bradley is alive?" The doctor raised his eyebrow at the 'Doc' then answered, "As of what your friends have told me, it turns out that he tried to kill himself about a month after you did. He's in the hospital at this very moment getting checked on." Dustin nodded a bit, "Ok, thanks Doc." "Please," the doctor grinned a bit, "call me Tommy." Dustin tilted his head, "Alright... Tommy." Tommy grinned at him once again, then left the room, leaving a seemingly mix-feelinged Dustin.

Yeah, kind of revolved around Dustin in that chapter, oh well. Next chapter there's going to be a lot more of Hunter. I'd be surprised if he didn't have a major brain-drain soon. P
