And yet, I live with my decisions. Eh, after re-editing and reposting the first 4 chapters of my story, I have to writ out the rest of it. It's actually gonna be pretty good, if people can help on the way it steers.

Kiari's Friends Part 2: Rina the Broken Child

What's wrong with me? Why am I scared to see my little sister and best friend? Why am I nervous? Probably because of Andrew... He's put my life in danger, and then orders me around, how dare him! I loved what he did for me. Why do I have the feeling that Rina hates me? No... she is afraid and hates me. It's a fact, my best friend and little sister hates my guts. I'm so sorry, Rina. Please, give me one more chance. Please?

Diane became nervous as the elevator continued to the second floor. She knew what needed to be done before it became too late. She ran to Rina's room, only to find her awoke on her bed, paying attention to a blue and white cloud-like Pokemon. The Pokemon noticed this, and quickly pecked Diane in a fury, knocking her to the ground.

"Ouch! Hey! Stop it! Ow! Please stop! I'm begging you, stop!" Diane yelled. She curled up in a ball while the Pokemon furiously attacked her. "Ow! Please stop hurting me! I'm sorry!"

"Kiari, stop." The small voice commanded. "Diane, what are you doing here?" Kiari stopped its barrage of pecking and flew back in front of Rina as if it were her bodyguard. Slowly, Diane, slightly bruised from a Fury Attack from an angry Altaria, rose to her feet.

"I'm sorry, Rina." Diane answered. Rina jerked back, as if she was hit again by her father.

You're sorry! You're SORRY? That's all you wanted to say? After all the pain and torture you and Dad put on me, you're sorry? I can't believe you. You've done nothing to prove this. You're probably speaking just to hear yourself talk. I don't care! You're just as bad as he is... lying and telling people what they want to get what you need... You've probably did this to Andrew too. Poor guy, he's so kind and sweet and friendly... and so is Kiari. They've done nothing to deserve this.

"How dare you say "I'm sorry", Diane!" Rina yelled. "How dare you... you... monster! You stared and laughed at me...let him hurt me and torture me... how dare you apologize to me! I should let Kiari beat you."

"Please listen, Rina. I really did badly as a sister to you. I know you're in this mess because of me. I'm such a bad sister. I'm a horrible person. If I-"

"If you'd what?" Rina interrupted. "If you told him to stop, he would've listened? No, Diane. It's not that simple. Dad hates me, and so do you. You're a horrible liar, Diane! You're no longer my sister!" Kiari growled, putting emphasis on her words.

"Please, Rina." Diane pleaded, hoping to get her point across. "Please believe me. I don't have anything left in this world besides you." She sighed and hung her head downward "I have nothing left and Dad's trying to kill us both."

I figured that out, you dolt! Wait a moment, what do you mean by "us"? You're so damn selfish...how did you figure this out, huh? Dad wants to kill me, eh? He's certainly gotten away with a lot.

"What are you talking about? You're perfect! You're the perfect daughter, Diane!" Rina praised her sarcastically. I'm just some junk. Rina quietly added. The only two friends I have are Andrew and Kiari. They appreciate me. I'll do anything to keep them.

"Sad." Diane remarked, "Why is that good-natured Altaria protecting you? You've never owned a Swablu."

"First of all, Kiari is her name. Second, she belongs to Andrew. Third, she's my friend; unlike you... she cares for people." Rina bitterly answered. "Kiari, will you escort this girl out of my room?"

"Please, Rina... you have to listen to me!" Diane said, looking at Kiari's scowl getting meaner by the second. "Rina... I love you. I really love you. I'm sorry for everything I've done to you. I have been a bad sister to you, and I'm willing to spend the rest of my life trying to make it up to you. Please, give me one more chance." Diane dropped to her knees. Kiari stopped and looked to Rina. Rina scoffed and then turned her head to Diane, who layed in a crumpled heap on the side of her bed.

I've never seen Diane like this. Could she really mean what...she says? Does she really love me? I've always loved you, Diane. Why did you treat me so badly? Why do you hate me? Why have you and Dad...why have you turned against me? Why can't we be a happy family? Huh?

"I just want one chance to make things right, to be the sister I'm supposed to be. I know you want me in your life, Rina. I want to make things better between us. Please, you have to believe me. I would do anything to get just..." she began sobbing. "I would do anything to be your sister again. Can I have one more chance, Rina?"

"You have taken everything from me...my happiness, my innocence, and my freedom. How can I trust you, thief! You stole my life! Diane... I really liked you. I really wanted you in my life... but you've taken everything away... how you dare try to take what little I have left!" Rina cried. "You took everything... I'm nothing, Diane. I have nothing left, and nothing to give." Rina began crying, an act Kiari didn't approve of. She floated to Rina's side, nudging her "master" in comfort.

I really did. I had Rina take the blame for all my mistakes and even then, she still loved me. What was I thinking? How could I have ever done such a thing to someone I love so much! I see why you don't trust me. If I were you, I wouldn't, either. I've abandoned you, mistreated you, and betrayed you so many times... I deserve what she said to me. Dad has... changed since this... but he's always hated us... Diane held herself in contempt...little did Diane know, she had begun crying.

"Diane?" Rina asked. "Diane?" Several sniffles and a small groan from returning to her feet was Rina's reward.

"Rina, I have no right to convince you otherwise. But I do want to inform you of this: Dad's not going to quit until both of us are dead. You're worth 700,000. I'm well... well over a million... and Andrew's trying to save our lives by risking his own and Kiari's...and probably that receptionist, too. Rina, we don't hate you! We want to love you. I love you... and I would do anything to prove it. Anything to protect you, even if Andrew and I die before you're safe." Rina realized what everyone was doing for her.

They're giving their lives to save me! Oh God... what have I done? Why didn't I believe you? No! Andrew and Kiari are risking their lives for me? Why? I'm not worth it...Diane... I'll give you one more chance, but you'll never be forgiven.

"Do you realize what Andrew is putting on the line for you, Rina? He's putting up the lives of his Pokemon, his three year old daughter, and his own life to help you. He's going to give his life, and you don't care... I should tell him." Diane said, and began to leave out the door.

"You mean... he's... no! Kiari! Why didn't you tell me!" Rina questioned the Altaria. Kiari turned away and chirped a few times.

"I didn't know, Rina, honest."

"Rina... I'll tell Andrew if you're going through with this. But he said you'll have to leave before we do."

"When are you two leaving?" Rina curiously asked.

"Seven in the evening." Diane answered. I hope she believes me now. She has to! She just has to... Please!

"Diane, I'll do it. I'll... I'll give you one more chance." Rina admitted. If Andrew and Kiari are going to risk their lives to get me to safety... then I will do what they ask. Anything to be away from them, I'll do it. Even if that means... giving Diane one more chance.

"Thank you Rina. I really appreciate it." Diane happily said.

"But you'll never be forgiven." Rina added coldly.

"That's okay with me, Rina. One day, I just may have the chance to be forgiven." Diane answered. With that said she turned to Rina, smiled and left out the door and into the hallway.

I hope... oh god... As soon as Diane walked out, she walked into none other than their father, Lode. He smiled and opened the door to Rina's room. I pray for you, Rina. Please be careful... I love you.

And that's it for this part. For right now, Rina seems to have given Diane one chance to prove herself worthy of... anything. It's kinda sad, really, when you think about how Rina and Diane reacted with one another. Don't worry... I plan on making the next part less emotionally straining on my part. Kiari's Friends Part Three- Diane the Hopeful. Please review!

This is Kiari's Friends Part Two, Rina the Broken Child. I don't own and wish not to own Pokemon. The story belongs to me, and the idea originated from my daughter. I've only put her idea into words. That's all.
