Castles In the Sky-Chp.3 In Case of Fire Break the Glass

I looked at Takuya, completely bewildered with what he just suggested.

'Do you really think we need to look for him? When he'll probably come to us, for a different reason?'

Did he mean he thought Kouichi would come after us? To kill us even?

"Koji, we have to consider this possibility. And we need to be prepared." Takuya said running a hand through his hair as he yawned.

"...You really think that is what is going to happen, then?" I asked looking at him.

"Uh..." he thought for a moment, "Yes. Yes, I really do think that is what he is going to do. I could be wrong, but how you said he left, and what he said to you before you left, really makes me think that he would come after us, to prove his point."

I was left speechless. I didn't know what to say about it all. Maybe Takuya was right.

"Then what should we do Takuya? You're supposed to be the 'leader', so lead." I all but shouted at him. I don't know why I was suddenly interested in pounding his goofy face in.

"You don't need to get mad at me Koji!" he snapped. "It isn't my fault your brother is a nutcase!" he stopped when he realized what he said and covered his mouth with a small gasp and covered his mouth with his hand and looked at me with his eyes wide.

I clenched my fists and lunged at him.


I never got up after the other me left. I just lied there in the obscurity of my own mind. I knew what was happening. I knew what the other me was going to do. What he was going to do to my friends, my brother...Zoƫ...

But, I don't want to do anything about it.

I closed my eyes shut and tried to will myself to sleep. Maybe this is all just a bad dream. Who knows? I am a little insane.

I then suddenly felt very cold. A deep chill that attacked my lungs and made it hard to breath. What was going on? I curled up into a ball as tight as I could to get some warmth, but there was a fanatical blizzard inside me, that was causing the chill. So I couldn't escape it.

Kouichi!

My eyes snapped open and I looked up at the other me. He looked very enraged. I opened my mouth to speak only to have it kicked shut by the other me's foot. I cried out in pain as the other me commenced to beat the living crap out of me. What did I do? Why was he doing this?

I opened my mouth again, but only one word escaped my lips before another vicious kick closed them,

'Why?'


"GODDAMNITT KOJI!" Takuya screamed as he sucker-punched me in the face, for what seemed like the millionth time since we started fighting over an hour ago.

I stumbled back a little and then let out a yell as I lunged back at him, causing him to fall to the ground. I sat on top of him and started to pound his face in. During this whole thing, we managed to wake everyone else up who just stood there dumbfounded, not really knowing what was going on, and why Takuya and I were trying to turn each other's faces into mush.

Takuya roughly pushed me off of him and then lunged at me and then started to pound my face in.

"HEY! HEY! HEY! What are you doing? Quit that!" someone finally yelled. I had no idea who.

Neither of us listened and continued switching positions and molding each other a new face until we stood up on wobbly legs and starred each other down.

"What the hell is your problem Koji!" Takuya yelled with a hoarse voice.

I opened my mouth then shut it, why were we fighting? "I-I have no freakin' idea." I said plopping down onto the ground, with my elbows on my knees and my head in my hands.

"What...?" Takuya asked attempting to laugh and then sitting down was well.

Everything was silent for a while, until I heard Takuya chuckling. I looked up at him.

"You know I was wrong, your brother isn't the nutcase, you are." he said still chuckling to himself.

I gave him an astonished look. And then started to laugh. At first, it was just a small chuckle, then it bloomed into a full blown psycho laugh.

"Damn, I hate you." I said smiling.

"Yes, aren't I brilliant?" Takuya said smiling while everyone else just starred at us, thunderstruck.


You little shit!

I grimaced as the other me's foot collided with my already bruised ribs. This had been going on for what seemed like forever. He's gone non-stop, just kicking, and yelling and cursing at me. And I still don't know what I did. He suddenly stopped, taking in air in rapid breaths. He glared at me with pure raw, unadulterated hatred. I took this chance while he caught his breath to figure out why he gave me this beating.

There was blood in my mouth, so it was hard to talk, "Wh-why a-are y-y-you..." I had to stop to get some air. "k-kicking m-me?"

He looked at me a smirked.

Why not?
