I woke with a start and instantly started to cry. My face was wet from either sweat or tears, or both. I curled up in a ball under my blanket and continued to cry until I felt a hand on my shoulder.
I was about to scream but the hand covered my mouth. "Shhhhh, it's okay Yuki, it me, Mikio." I gave a sigh of relief as he let go of my mouth and wiped away a couple of my tears. "What's wrong?" he asked gently. I told him of my dream and then started to cry again. He hugged my close and rocked me back and forth in his arms. I cried into his shoulder and hugged him closely. He spoke words of comfort to me and I felt myself starting to slip away again. I tried with all my might to stay awake so I wouldn't go back to that horrible dream, but it was no use, I fell asleep in Mikio's arms.
I woke up the next morning a felt warm and comfortable. I opened my eyes and saw Mikio. I was lying in Mikio's arms when I fell asleep and he must have fell asleep too because he hadn't moved me. In most cases this would have bothered me, but it didn't. I felt happy that Mikio had held me through the night. It made me feel safe. I flicked his nose and his eyes fluttered open and looked around. When they landed on me they grew very wide. I took a quick glance around to make sure none of the mews were awake. They weren't. I leaned in and gave Mikio a soft kiss.
"Thanks" I said.
"For what?" he asked in confusion.
I smiled, "For caring about me."
I pulled away from him and walked over to the refreshments table, which was now filled with breakfast things like bagels, fruit, orange juice, cereal, milk, and all sorts of other things. I grabbed an apple and was about to take a bit into it when I felt someone put their hand over my mouth and a hand around my waist. I tried to look around but the hand on my mouth forced my head to stay pout. I was being dragged out of the ball room and by back was against a wall before I knew it. I was looking up at Nariyuki, and he had a sly smile on his face.
"Hello brown eyes, long time no see."
He still had his hand over my mouth so I couldn't yell at him or spit in his face, all I could do was glare, and that's what I did.
"You know I barley recognized you at first. I thought you were just some hot babe, but it turns out it was you all along!" I rolled my eyes. "You're a strange chick, you know that? You dreamt about me last night, and yet you always tell me you hate me. Let's not leave the decision to you. Just leave it to me." He removed his hand from my mouth and the started kissing me. I struggled with all my might, but he was a lot stronger then me and he wasn't holding anything back. He was holding my hands and was pressing his body against me. I was pinned down and there was no way to escape.
Unexpectedly I saw a fist fly into the side of Nariyuki's face and he fell to the floor. I looked over at were the fist had come from and saw Mikio. He had fire in his eyes and his teeth were clenched. I ran over to him and gave him a hug. He hugged me back. I looked over at Nariyuki. He stumbled to his feet and looked just as mad as Mikio did.
"Give her back, she's mine!" Nariyuki yelled.
"The only way you're going to get her back is by prying her out of my arms!" Mikio yelled back.
This couldn't be happening. They were fighting over me. There were four guys who wanted me, and I could only have one. Out of the corner of my eye I saw an orange cat slinking by, and so did Nariyuki. He pulled out a Kimera Anima and threw it at the cat. The little orange cat turned into a huge monster. It swiped at Mikio and he went flying across the hall and landed with a thud. I screamed at the sight of his limp body.
"TADE RING INFERNO!" I turned around and saw that all the mews where there. The Kimera Anima attacked Tade and she quickly blocked it. All me dear friends were battling the monster. They needed my help, but Mikio needed it more. I started to run over to Mikio but Nariyuki jumped in my way and hit me hard in the face. I fell to the ground holding the spot he had hit me at.
I tasted blood and my head hurt. I saw Nariyuki closing in on me. I kicked his legs and he fell to the ground. As quickly as possible I got up and transformed. Smirking, Nariyuki got onto his feet and looked at me up and down. Without any warning Nariyuki pulled out something that looked like a sword, except there was a purple chemical on the blade. He lunged at me and I quickly jumped out of the way.
I turned to him and yelled, "BLIZZARD SURPRISE!" he easily dogged it,
"That's getting a little weak Yuki!" he yelled as he tried to attack me. "Want to know how I knew you dreamt about me?"
I attacked and it narrowly missed his ear. He lunged and I jumped onto bookshelf. He walked over to the bookshelf and looked up at me, "I heard you say my name right before the waterworks."
I felt my temper start to rise and I grabbed a book from the bookshelf and threw it at him.
"Does your sweetheart know that you dream about me? Or does he prefer to cuddle without talking?"
That's when it happened. I jumped from the bookshelf and attacked with all my might, but I wasn't expecting him to come lunging at me with his sword right after I attacked. I tried to jump out of the way, but the blade cut deep into my arm. I yelled out with pain and fell to the floor. My arm was in excruciating pain as I laid on the ground, clutching it. Sweat started to leak down my forehead and my heart was pounding. I tried to get up, but my body felt weak. I saw Nariyuki standing over me and I quickly tried to clime up, but I felt so weak. He chuckled and just when I had managed to sit up he pushed me back down with his foot.
"It pains me to see you like this Yuki." He said.
"Yeah, right, pains you." I said under my breath. He laughed. "What was on that crummy sword of yours anyway?" I asked as I slowly tried to get up again. Nariyuki pushed me back down.
"That's for me to know and you to find out honey. Maybe your little Romeo can find out. Or maybe your ending will be the same as in the book."
He teleported away and I saw that the other mews had defeated the Kimera Anima and were running towards me, but that was the last thing I saw before I blacked out.
