~Disclaimer: I think you all get the point that these characters don't belong to me and I'm not going to write anymore. If you want to read any disclaimers, then refer to the first 3 chapters of this story! Thanks.~
~Badminton Report(lol, I think this is funny!*mocking voice of a reporter,* "And noooow, for you're weekly Badminton Report!!!"): It wasn't so great for me. We played some really hard schools and for the first two games(Tuesday and Wednesday), I lost my Double and Single matches, which really put me down...I guess that's why this chapter will be a little surprising to you all. But Thursday's game was good and I won both my matches!!! That gave me a small plus and so I'm almost done with the 5th chapter and it will be up I would say later today or Sunday night... I have a game Monday, so I think I will do it before then, hopefully. OH and the 5th chapter will be sooo much longer than this, I guarantee it. It's continuing on to a third page! LOL!!~
Now to my lovely reviewers, who make me sooo happy with all their responses!!!
~*kirei hime*: Thanks! Though this chappy is short, you will be happy with the next...I hope.~ *SabineballZ*: Wow, you're just getting a little ahead of yourself there, aren't you. I think you will find out when they or if they will meet...I'd say in the next lol, 3 chapters! Merle, hmmm, I don't know, just have to read and find out!~ *Amy.star*: *Dances around and cheers* She passed!!! Then I dedicate this awesome chapter (I love getting carried away!) to you!~ *Princess Neptune*: Thanks for loving and putting in time to read and review. LOL, I think you're luck kicked in on Thursday!~ *silversunemily*: I love Van and Hitomi too and I really can't see anyother characters together besides them. Yay! I found so many badminton lovers! Thank you and for your luck. I have a Game Monday, let see how that goes.~ *Fushizen na*: I think you need to scream in his ear for him to get your message, maybe a bullhorn would work... ^_~
*kaitlin and ALL WHO WANT TO HEAR A SAD STORY GOING ON IN MY LIFE RIGHT NOW*: *sighs* I know how that can be. It might be better that you're not with him because sometimes you have to let your feelings go and try to find someone who will be there for you and like you for who you are and not just for someone else who's prettier that comes along. He's definitely not for you if that's the case. I pretty much fell for my best friend which was a big mistake and I always hung around him and I thought I was going to prom with him...but I'm not because he got a girl friend and he told me, after a very serious conversation, that we were only friends and he never considered me anything more...well, I don't have anyone to go to prom with and it's my senior year, it's not like I will have another. I'm really depressed about that and writing and getting these stories out really help me along with your and everyone else's wonderful reviews...if you like, I have a story that no one has ever read but It's kinda a way that I could let out some of my feelings in the anime Gravitation...but it's only using those characters. I you would like to read it, I'll send it to you. Sad story people! Cry all you want, I know I did. Story sending goes for anyone who's interested too.~ *Sammy*: and this is the name of that best friend... lol, anyway, thanks for the luck and that equation is pretty true. I think that you'll be very happy with the next chapter that's coming really soon!~ *Kayura1*: Thanks for the super long review and your support. It means a lot and Yes you will get a nice little insight on Van for the next 2 chapters! Hope you like them. And as for the games, I'm only hoping that I will end my last year with a nice little bang...or SMASH! LOL!~ *B. Burns*: I'm glad that you like it and I hope I could only please everyone with how it goes and continues on. Thanks!~
On With The Story!
Cold sweat dribbled down the side of Van's contorted face, snarling in anger and frustration. He thrashed about in his bed, unable to rid the foul dreams that invaded his weary mind.
She was with him with his arms enclosed over her smaller form while she snuggled against him. Her head tucked away in the crook of his neck. Her breath tickling his neck and her sandy blond hair brushing beneath his chin. He could smell the wondrous fragrance of her silky, soft skin. Her lips murmuring his name, over and over, chanting her love for him. He held her close and all would be well. It would be what he fantasied about; A perfect life with his beloved.
But then someone or something would rip her away from him, away form his protective embrace. He tried to reach for her but something held him back. With all his might he struggled against the force but it was of no use. He sat there watching her as she thrashed about, calling his name desperately as the man would beat her, fondle her roughly and disgustingly. The faceless demon was enjoying the torture he was putting him through; satisfied from her reaction of pain and begging. There were just so many entities holding him back from saving her, preventing him from taking her away from her suffering.
The monster drew out a menacing dagger and sadistically slitted the flawless skin of her throat. Her voice rasped out in agonizing pain and her pleading emerald eyes never left his until they rolled to the back of her head and her limp figure slumped to the ground... dead.
Lifeless.
A languid Hitomi. No more wonderful sounds of her laughing, feeling her loving and caring demeanor... nothing. She was gone. Hitomi was dead.
It was too much to bare, too much to take in. A startling noise arose from his throat and he realized that he was screaming; A blood curdling cry that was from his pain, his agony. His heart breaking like a glass hitting the floor as the millions of pieces shattered, tightening his stomach, causing his lungs to be devoid of oxygen. All from losing her, Hitomi. His friend, his lover... his life.
The entities never released him as he struggled with all his will and battered being and continue to cry out hysterically to her lifeless form.

AN: Actually, If you guys update for both chapters that would be nice because I'm putting both up now, Next one will be up in like an hour from now but I still want to know what you think of this chapter, so, please do me that little favor...
