Chapter 5: "Welcome to hell"……

Everything….

Everything was covered in big blankets of smoke as the sounds of rifles were heard. It was like a giant black fog that never ended, never ended the coughing, and never ended the screams….

Never ended the smell of blood……

Everything was in slow motion, as the figure running came in contact with the ground after falling into before helplessly. The figure quickly got up and kept running, while holding its right side as blood was spewing out. The figure kept on going, and going. Hoping to fight some sort of light, some sort of freedom from this hell it was put in. The figure fell to its knee's in sorrow as the figure cried out to the nothingness as water came from its eyes and towards the dry ground.

Everything….

Everything was gone, destroyed and figure was lost of all hope. Lost everything it once knew and would never have. But the figure saw something, in the distance. Yes, there in the distance the figure saw something that revived the lost hope she lost.

If only……

What the figure saw there in the distance was another figure in black. The mysterious new figure was much taller and more muscular. That figure to, was in pain as it held its shoulder and was slightly slouched. But what that tall figure didn't see was a big black object in the sky as it came crashing towards it. The figure on the ground cried to the other one with desperation as the tall figure looked up towards the shin object. The object hit the ground as everything, if possible, became even darker as a high pitched scream was heard threw the darkness.

Save me….

But look! A miracle happened you see. The darkness, the smoke, was destroyed by the rays of light coming from above. The so called figure who was on the ground was now just a woman. A woman with a tear stained face as she looked up at the heavens above with those ocean blue eyes……

"Misao"

'That voice….it sounds familiar'

"Misao, wake up"

'Hmm, what, why am I being shaken'

"Misao, it's me Aoshi, come on wake up"

'Oh Aoshi, hmmm five more minutes…….WAIT WHAT!'

Misao's head was up in a minute as it came in contact with another one. She yelped out in pain as she saw Aoshi holding his head as well. Nice one Misao, knock out the sexy man why don't you.

'God, five minutes, what the hell kind of an idiot am I'

"I'd say a very weird one" a deep voice replied.

'Oh crap, did I just say that out loud!'

"Oh, um, well I get that a lot" Misao replied weakly.

"I see"

They then just stared at one another, Aoshi hovering over her as Misao looked at him in her seat. They stayed like that for awhile until Misao broke it.

"So why did you wake me up"

"Because we will me landing soon", Aoshi replied sternly, then added," And also cause you were somewhat turning and crying in your sleep."

"Oh, and um, can I ask you one more question?"

"Yes," Aoshi replied somewhat curiously.

"Why are you still on top on me?"

Aoshi looked as though he though about it for a bit and then answered coolly…

"Good point"

Aoshi then stood up and moved back to his seat as he looked out at one of the windows. Misao on the other hand was fuming inside.

'Great! Just great! When things start to go so romantic with his face near mine, I just had to do the most stupid thing to do! If I would of shut my mouth and didn't say anything, I probably would have been kissing Mr. Oh-so –drop-dead-gorgeous- man's lips!'

"Misao, have you ever experienced pain before?" Aoshi asked.

"What?" That question took Misao off guard, since she was battling her mind.

"Well….I-"Just as she was about to answer, there was a huge drop the jet took which made the whole jet bumpy and shaky. Misao held on to the belt tied to her as did Aoshi as she could see land approaching from her window. But wasn't able to make out much do to the sand everywhere. After a satisfying thump, it was clear that they have landed. The other members of the jet got up and headed out quickly as did Aoshi and then Misao. Misao jumped off from the door and followed the others as they all lined up in single file. Misao was the last of the line as she looked about her surroundings.

Basically it was a deserted place, there was only a couple of tents, maybe twenty tents about fifty feet ahead but that was it. It wasn't as nice as the other place; at least there it looked comfortable and homey. But this just has death written all over it.

'Well, gee, this is the army right'

But just to make matters worst a figure approached them, one that Misao hated beyond hell.

'Oh no, not….'

"Welcome all of you", said none other than Captain Saito himself.

'…him…'

"I am glad to say and hear that you all arrived …," he then looked at her and said "in one piece."

Miaso rolled her eyes at this, since she was so used to him by now.

"Well, follow me please as I shall show you to your tents, and no weasels..." Saito smirked and then walked along.

Misao just stuck her tongue out at him as he marched forward with the others. She followed along with them, while biting her nails. She always did that when she was nervous…..

'Great, another smelly camp here I go'

Well, hey guys, I'm sorry for the long wait. It's just that I was grounded for a while, which happens quite often so don't be so surprised when it does. But anyways, back to the story. I know, I know, it's short and all, but this was again a better place to end it. I know I owe you guys more than this; it's just that I'm busy and tired so please to kill me. Or if you will, just wait till I'm done typing the story. So even thought I know I don't deserve it, I hope I do get some reviews.

Also, I THANK ALL OF MY REVIEWERS VERY MUCH FOR REVIEWING!
