Chapter 2: Waking nightmare
Hi-hi! I'm back with chapter 2! Well some people got mad at me because of the cliff hanger at the end of chapter 1, but what can I say, that's how I am. Hope you enjoy this chapter.
Disclaimer: I own no one in this except Moonriver, River, and Dark Moon.
Dark Moon came out of River's room. He had laid her down on her bad. The shadows seemed to darken around him. "Don't worry my pets, tomorrow she'll remember nothing." He said softly. He walked back to Moonirver's room. He looked at her. "Your friend is quite annoying." He said, "Eventually if she doesn't stop interfering I might have to get rid of her. So you'd better make sure to lock your door more often." He left a paper by her notes, and then disappeared into shadows.
Moonriver stirred just minutes after he had disappeared. She realized she had been crying. She wiped away her tears, wishing dreams like the one she had had didn't plague her. She also wished she didn't have to wake up either. It was only what could be described as a waking nightmare. She sighed, and walked back to her little island in the center of the mess. She smiled softly. "Look on the bright side, soon you'll be able to bring him back." She said. She looked around. She saw the paper Dark Moon had left. "How'd this get here?" A sudden wave of dark energy surged through her. She knew the paper was not safe, but she couldn't help but read it. It contained vital information to human alchemy.
Morning's light penetrated the blankets that River lay under. River groaned softly, not wanting to get up. Her door swing open as a slightly hyper were-cat came in. "GOOD MORNING!" she shouted. "Since when are you a morning person!" River shouted. "Since I ate about a pound of sugar." She responded. This were-cat was Keket. She had Black hair with blue streaks, silver eyes with glasses, and cat ears that were pierced. She wore a black shirt and baggy jeans with many chains sticking out of multiple pockets. River sighed. "My head hurts." She said. "Did Moonriver try to kill you late last night?" Keket said, since whenever River woke with a bad headache it was because Moonriver had tried to kill her, or River fell out of bed really hard. "I don't know. I can't remember anything after midnight." She said. "Hmm. Wh-" Keket was interrupted by the slamming of Moonriver's door. Moonriver appeared looking particularly angry. "Late night again?" Moonriver didn't answer, just headed towards the kitchen.
River, Moonriver, Keket, and Kyo were the only ones awake. Kyo had orange hair, and orange red eyes. He wore a black shirt, and baggy khaki jeans. Moonriver looked at the stove, as though she was going to try to cook, and everyone sweat dropped. "Moonriver you're not thinking…" Keket said trailing off. "Well if someone doesn't start cooking, I will!" Moonriver snarled. Kyo and Keket ran to the stove. After a few minutes without incident at the stove, Ramen was served. Moonriver's had large chunks of meat in it, which made everyone cringe in disgust as she ate it. Let's just say the meat was more on the moo side than the cooked side. River ate hers quickly, wanting to get ready quickly. If she did she got to see him.
About thirty minutes later Moonriver and River were walking to 1st period. River was looking for Ed. She loved him; damn she was obsessed with him. She spotted him. He had blonde hair; part of it pulled back in a braid, and wore black pants, a black shirt and a red jacket. Moonriver stepped aside predicting River's next movements perfectly. River ran to Ed. "Hi-hi!" she said happily. "Oh, hi River." Ed said. Moonriver appeared, "Hi." She said dully. "Hey Moonriver." "Did we have homework for 1st period?" River asked. "Yeah, why?" Ed said. River looked pale. "Oh boy." She said. Moonriver started laughing. "Your such an idiot River." She said.
