Chapter Four: Dreaming

Meanwhile, Luci's friend was at the principal's office. "Something is seriously wrong with Luci. She quit every school activity she did: student council, beta club, math team, quiz bowl, interact, debate club, DECA, swimming team, trak team—she quit them all, and today she's sick! Luci's never sick!"

"Now, Alice, I'm sure she..." The principal explained to Ali that everyone was out sometime in their life. The only one who seemed to notice anything was Ali.

Instead of riding a bus back to her home, Luci walked. She looked at all the other people that walked hand-in-hand with another, whether it was a mother and child or a boyfriend and girlfriend. Many groups of friends danced around on the streets.

Luci watched other people for a little longer and thought to herself, Nobody notices me. If I were gone, on one would notice. They'd just continue walking along. I should write Keiko and Ali suicide letters, but I really don't have what it takes to do it. I just—just wish someone could take me away, so I can live a different life. It doesn't really seem that bad to be kidnapped, as long as I can have some kind of thriller. Maybe I can run away. This is a pretty big city to be able to hide in, but staying here is not what I want. I want to go far, far away.

Luci sighed as she opened their front door. She could hear Yusuke on the phone. "Yes! Ok, tonight at one A.M., be prepared to lose! What? Of course my mom won't find out. Besides, if I hear her walking the stairs, I'll get off immediately. Oh, her? She joined some garden club and won't be back until eight. Oh, stupid, tell Botan I'll talk to her tomorrow. Whatever, man. See ya later, ok, okay, bye."

Luci continued walking up the stairs into her room. I don't know what that was about, but he better not be seeing someone else other than Keiko. I don't think I'll like this new Botan girl.

Luci wasted away the rest of the day doing practically nothing until she was finally in bed. Like always, she was having an interesting dream...

She was doing a play with her friend Ali and her mother. Ali was supposed to be an agent coming to kidnap her mother. Luci was running around, and Ali pretended to shoot her with a pistol. Luci pretended to die, but then Ali turned into a manly beast. This Ali-beast was truly trying to attack her mother. She frantically ran up and down and kicked the beast causing the beast to turn on her. She punched the beast but the beast just wouldn't stop. "I'll get rid of you forever now!" The beast yelled and pulled out a knife and stuck through her right palm. Luci yelled out in pain. (Dream ends here.)

Luci woke up panting heavily. She moved around in her bed and felt a cool, hard metal at her neck.

"Don't move," someone said. Luci slowely turned her head. In the corner of her eye, she could see someone no older than her brother that was short with black spiky hair.
