Disclaimer: I do not own KHR, or anything mentioned in here, all I own are the OC's that are added.
So, I want to thank everyone who had read this ever since I first started to post it, if you are still with me here. I want to say sorry for the wait, my scheduled for this is completely and utterly messed up, that and I'm not as into KHR as I used to be. Thank you for waiting. I'm not sure this was worth waiting for, but whatever. That's for you to decide. So, here we go, chapter 3.
(づ｡◕‿‿◕｡)づ
I felt nothing, everything was just darkness, or maybe my eyes were closed, I don't fucking know. It took me a minute before I started to feel anything, after what felt like forever, my eyes opened. I saw the clear blue sky through a curtain of water and lily pads. It looked breathtaking, reaching up; I touched what seemed to be glass. The stems of the lily pads seemed to be growing off of the glass I was in. Gazing around in curiosity, I froze.
'Why am I under the water? HOW am I under the water?' I lifted my arms and started to pound on the glass. My thoughts started to become frantic as I tried to remember how this happened. Placing my hands on my face, I closed my eyes.
'I was at the pond, I watched Tsuna go. I saw a light in the water, it was the ring... And then, nothing...' Cursing I tried to break it again.
"I'm tell-I-nt-see-thing." I stopped, I could hear muffled voices.
"Oh, I-ee-ha." Craning my neck, I saw two blurry figures, one of them just happened to be leaving.
"Hey!" I yelled out to them, trying to get their attention. It dawned on me that they might not be able to see me, that I might be stuck here... Forever. My breath hitched. I felt tears start to fall, I felt like I was going to faint, like I might not wake up again.
"Help..." I could see black spots already trying to cover my eyes. Just as I was about to go under, I felt something wet hit my nose. My eyes snapped open as I glanced up in shock; a dark haired teen was stomping on the glass. It must have been hard to do this, to try and break glass under water. I pounded on the cracked part to try help him, and before long, water came rushing in. The glass seemed to just dissipate once broken; I pushed off of the floor and broke through the water. I could feel fresh air rush into my lungs, and tears falling down my face. I wasn't going to be trapped forever, I was alright.
"Are you alright?" I turned to the teen; I stopped breathing for a moment when I saw him. He had black hair and brown eyes, "What were you doing under there?" he was supposed to be about five if I remember.
"I'm... Alright." My voice was hoarse, each word felt like I was swallowing sandpaper.
"I'm Yamamoto Takeshi, what's your name? I can't keep calling you Ghost-Girl forever." I stared at him.
"Ghost girl?" The teen laughed and rubbed the back of his head.
"Well, I didn't know your name when I found you, and since I seemed to be the only one able to see you, I figured that it was fitting at the time." His smiled became strained, as if thinking about being the only person who could see me made him miserable or something.
"Well, it's nice to meet you Yamamoto-san." I started to make my way out of the pond, "I'm Serena, Smith Serena." I turned and gave him an honest smile, he had no idea how much I needed this right now.
"It's nice to meet you too Serena-Chan!" I raised my eyebrow and gazed at him. "S-sorry! I guess talking to you in the water for a few years kinda made me, well, seem like were friends.. Or something.." He turned his head and hung it in shame. I stopped at the edge of the pond. He seemed different, nothing like in the manga.
"That's alright I guess. Can I call you Takeshi?" The boy's head snapped up, he smiled brightly and nodded.
"Of course!" The boy held out his hand, "It's really nice to finally meet you Serena-Chan." I gazed at the hand, wondering how I would tell him.
"Umm.. Takeshi?" "Yes?" "You do know I'm a ghost right?" "Of course. Why?" "I can't touch anything." "Oh, well. I guess that would make sense. Haha!"
(づ｡◕‿‿◕｡)づ
I sighed and stared at the Sawada house, wondering whether or not I should go see Tsuna. Would he be able to see me? What would he do? "Umm. Who are you?" I turned and saw someone who was the last person I expected to see.
"Uhh, my name is Serena... I was looking for a friend, but I think I got the wrong house..." The woman smiled brightly and took my arm gently but firmly.
"Well, why don't you come on in! I'm sure we can help you find who ever you're looking for!." I stared in complete shock as she dragged me into the house. DRAGGED ME!
Nana could see me... Nana could fucking touch me! What the actual hell!
"Kaa-chan? Who's this?" I stared at the two of them nervously, what the fuck was going on. One moment I'm ready to run, now I have no idea what I was supposed to do. 'NANA FUCKING TOUCHED ME!'
I sat down at the kitchen table and watched as the two of them interacted."I'm telling you Kaa-chan, I have no idea who she is." "That's adorable Tsu-kun! But you don't have to hide girlfriends from me!" I shuddered and slowly left the chair, slowly trying to inch my way to the door.
"Serena-Chan!" I froze and gave my best smile. "Why don't you head up to Tsuna's room! He'll bring up snacks for you both!"
"Y-Yes Mam!" I walked out of the room and made my way up the stairs, making sure to be as fast as I could without showing how freaked out I was. I opened Tsuna's door, which still had the damn fish on it, smiling slightly, I walked in and sat on his bed. I kind of just stared at the wall the whole time, wondering what was going to happen, wondering just what the hell happened to Nana for whatever the fuck had just happened. I heard foot-steps come up the stairs, my head turned to the door as it opened, and in the corner of my eye, I saw his old dresser. It was in the exact same spot, the spot that covers the hidden bag under the floor.
"Hey, here are some snacks." Tsuna walked in with a sneer, my mind went blank. 'What. The. Fuck?'
"Uhh, thanks?" He placed them down on the table in the middle of his room. I stayed on the bed while he sat at the computer desk.
"Care to tell me who you are?" He stared at me with such intensity, I almost found myself shaking, but then again, maybe I was. I felt like I was about to puke, so I wouldn't be surprised.
'He doesn't remember.' I took a shaky breath and balled my hands in my lap.
"My name is Serena. I." He gazed at me in curiosity, as if examining me. "Well I..." My words seemed to not want to work.
"That name, it reminds me of something..." He looked towards his closet, I felt my heart flutter. "Yeah, kind of sounds like Eena." I stared at him, almost bursting with joy, until he walked to the closet, opened it, and pulled out a fucking teddy bear. "Yeah, that's right, how could I forget that." He dusted it off and placed it on his dresser before turning back to me. I could feel my eye twitching as he gave me a look of boredom.
"Well... I need help." Words came spilling out of my mouth, I had no idea what the hell I was trying to do, all I knew was that I needed to find out about Nana, and maybe try get Tsuna to remember me, but mostly Nana.
I stared at the teen blankly, wondering what the hell I was trying to do again; he just stared back at me. Half of the words that had left my mouth were utter bullshit, which he probably knew. I didn't need to hide from anybody, I didn't need a place to stay, and I didn't need Tsuna, in particular, to help me with my ghost problem. His eye twitched as he got up from his spot at the computer desk.
"No." I stared at him in silence, watching as he opened his door and motioned for me to leave. "I want nothing to do with this." Getting off his bed, I walked past him.
"Fine, I'll just ask your mother." I held my head up as I walked away slowly, waiting for him to try stop me.
"Don't you dare!" I was rewarded when he gasped; my arm had that same static feeling like before. He tried to grab me.
"What the hell?!" He pulled back and stared in utter shock. I smiled and waved at him, watching him flinch back.
"Now do you see?" I left him there and made my way to the kitchen, wondering how to tell Nana.
"Umm?" She smiled when she saw me enter.
"Did you need something dear?" I watched as she made some type of soup thing. It was, oddly enough, peaceful. Working up my courage, I took a breath.
"I was wondering, if I would be able to stay here for a while..." She stopped what she was doing and gave me a very serious look. I knew at once that she was going to refuse.
"I know it sounds crazy, but you... I really need help.." I took a breath and called Tsuna down. He came slowly, inching his way around me to get to his mother.
"You did something that no one else is able to do..." Tsuna looked shaken, like he was seeing me for the first time. I turned to him and held up my hand.
"Please... Can you show her?" He glared at me, as if the idea that he was going to touch me again was the worst thing ever. But slowly, he reached up and tried to touch my hand, only to go right through it. I watched Nana's expression; she gasped and stared in shock, dropping her spoon to the ground. I moved my hand towards her, watching as she slowly lifted her own, curious to see if it would happen to her. She placed her hand on my own.
"I can feel you... But, Tsu-kun..." She dropped her hand and held it to her chest. Looking between Tsuna and me. Sighing, I rubbed the back of my neck and sat at the table. Never once had I thought something like this would ever happen to me. Why did this happen to me in the first place?
"I honestly don't know. I got this gift," I raised the pacifier, "And ended up here. No one could see me or hear me. I was alone..." placing the thing down, I rubbed my eyes, suddenly tired.
"I was dying... Then.. You saw me. I didn't know what to do... And then, you touched me. So I thought.. Maybe you would be able to help me?" I left out being Tsuna's childhood imaginary friend, the blue haired kid, and Takeshi. Nana was in a shocked silence, and Tsuna didn't know what to do or how to react.
"I understand if you don't want to help..." I got up and started to make my way to the door, my heart sank as I opened it and walked out.
'I guess I could find Takeshi...' While that thought had some value, I really wanted to know how Nana was able to touch me...
It was sunset, I had figured that the two would either think it over and welcome me back, or want nothing to do with me what so-ever. I was leaning towards the latter... I watched as people passed by, wondering what I was going to do. It wasn't until I saw both Tsuna and Nana that I decided to get up. They were walking towards the market district. Nana was smiling brightly and speaking to her son while said son just looked somewhat bored. I frowned and turned the other way. They weren't looking for anybody by the looks of it. I made my way back towards the park, hopes crushed. Until I thought about that dresser again.
"Fuck it." Changing course, I made my way back towards the Sawada house. I honesty hoped that they would take their time, and that Tsuna would be dumb enough to leave his window unlocked.
(づ｡◕‿‿◕｡)づ
Scowling, I opened the window. Like I had hoped, he left it unlocked. Slipping in like the intruder I was, I ran up to the dresser, pushed it out of the way, and pulled up the floor board. There lay my bag; it was covered in a thin sheet of dust. I could feel a big smile break out on my face. Grabbing the bag, I saw a picture under it, it was something Tsuna had drawn me before, smiling sadly I placed the board back and shoved the dresser in neatly once more. I went through it, inside were my old school papers, which were falling apart, and my electronics, which were still dead.
"Oh how I missed you!" Shoving them back in, I made my way to the window, slipping out with ease. I closed the window behind me and jumped out of the tree. Giving one last look at the house, I started towards the shopping district as well. I was sick of wearing my dirty clothes.
(づ｡◕‿‿◕｡)づ
I watched as employees were freaking out and trying to ward off spirits. I could only laugh and throw more clothes around. While fun, this was a bit counterproductive. But it helped me calm down a bit. I had tried to find a cord that worked with my I-pod and I-pad, but they weren't invented yet, I have to wait until the IPhone 5 is created. Which sucks big time. So I ended up walking into a nice clothing store and started terrorizing the shoppers. I also changed into some real nice clothes, which I just happened to borrow... After a while, I ended up getting bored, so I left.
I sat on a bench and watched as people went on their merry ways, it was disheartening watching so many people talking and laughing with each other. "Serena-Chan!" Turning to the voice, I saw Takeshi waving at me, smiling all the while, people gave him looks, he just ignored them. I could only give back a small smile of my own; in return he gave me a concerned look.
"What's the matter?" Getting up, I started to walk to a more secluded part of the park, Takeshi followed right behind me. Once I found the perfect spot, I could only sit down and stare into nothing.
The teen sat down right beside me; he was concerned, that much I could tell. "What's wrong?" I sighed and lay back in the grass, wishing that I was back home.
"I met someone, someone that could see me. But that's not the best part; they were able to touch me. TOUCH me!" Closing my eyes, I thought about the things I did, wondering why I did them, it seemed so stupid now. "I tried to ask them to help me, but they refused... So, now I have no idea what to do."
Takeshi had a frown on his face, probably wondering about one thing or another. "Well, they don't seem like very nice people, but Serena-Chan, if you need help, I'll do everything I can to help you!" Turning to the teen, I saw determination on his face; it made me smile knowing that at least someone was willing to help me, even if they hardly knew me.
"Thank you." The teen's face lit up like a Christmas tree, he grinned and rubbed the back of his head.
"No problem Serena-Chan!"
After talking it out with Takeshi, we parted ways. He needed to head to his baseball practice, so I waved him off. We talked about any and all possible ways to stop being a ghost and theorized about how I even became one. Most of our theories were ridicules; though it made my situation a little more lighthearted than it was. I was all smiles when I made my way back to the shopping district. It was then I saw it. The thing I had always wanted most in the world, the one thing Annebella would never let me wear.
Lolita clothing.
"YESS!" Running towards the store, I let myself in. The store was like from a dream. I didn't even know they had this sort of thing. Looking at each and every item, I grabbed clothing after clothing, grabbed any accessory I could get my hands on, freaked out the employees big time, and pretty much rolled in the clothes. Seeing as I had nothing to place them in, I ran to the front of the store, looking out the window, I saw a store across the street, it sold bags and suitcases.
Grinning like a madwoman, I ran across, took a cute white suitcase with cherry-blossoms, and ran back to the Lolita store, I shoved every article of clothing that I couldn't live without. I even changed clothes! I knew this was technically stealing, but I didn't care. I grabbed the little clipper things that take those ugly bars off the clothes and shoved it in the bulging suitcase. It was then something caught my eye, there was a thin silver film covering the suitcase, and my new dress, it was gone when I blinked. I thought it was my imagination so I just left the store, setting off all their alarms. Not caring one bit, I walked back towards the park.
I could only laugh and sing the first song that popped into my head, which happened to be from Tenacious D. "Fuck! FUUUUCK! The demon code prevents me, from declining a rock off challenge, what are your terms, what's the ca-aatch!" Laughing like a maniac, I made my way towards the housing district, not really caring where I was going.
(づ｡◕‿‿◕｡)づ
The houses started to thin out as I made my way past, each one becoming more expensive and traditional. Soon enough, I found a dirt trail going to a forestry area. As I looked around, I noticed that dark clouds have started to gather above me, scowling, I continued forwards. Everything seemed to disappear the further I went, I steered down a path, it was barely visible, hardly used would be my guess. Following it, I found myself in a garden like area; it had Sakura trees surrounding it, with a small gazebo in the centre of it all. I walked into the gazebo and sat down on a swing, it then began to pour.
"Just what am I going to do?" I sighed and hugged myself, started to feel the cold creeping in. It was odd, how this whole ghost thing worked; it was just one big giant contradiction. I could do some things, but not others. I swore and shook my head, trying to think of ways to fix this, whatever this was.
"Herbivore." I froze as I heard a voice, a voice from the person that I had been trying to avoid. The child I met before had nothing on this teen, that child was adorable; I had been able to hold him, with so much effort for just that one thing, and tease him without much of a fuss.
"Fuck! He'll defiantly remember me! What do I do?" I relaxed and turned to him, feelings going haywire. I gave a wary smile as I watched his reaction, first his eyes widened before his face contorted into a snarl.
"YOU!" I may or may not have showered him in attention, since he was unable to stop me, I became a big nuisance to him.
"Hi Kyo-Kun!" I felt something faze through me and hit the swing I was on; the swing broke under me, making me fall to the ground.
"OWW! Hey! What's the big idea?!" the teen was glowering and shaking in anger.
"Why have you returned?" I felt sweat go down my neck as I schooled my expression, I got off the ground as gracefully as I could and crossed my arms.
"It's not like I wanted to be here in the first place." He glared at me and point at my clothing and bag.
"And where did you get those?" I gave a smile and tilted my head.
"I may have borrowed them?" He swiped out at me again, I laughed as his expression soured even more, his weapons fazing through me harmlessly. He scowled and put his weapons away.
"Leave my property at once." He then turned away, I wondered why he wasn't wet, was he already in here before it started raining?
"And go where?" The teen shrugged his shoulder and started towards what I presumed his home.
"See you later!" He lifted his arm, and did something so out of character.
He gave me the finger.
"KYO-KUN!" I yelled in shock, he ignored me and walked away.
(づ｡◕‿‿◕｡)づ
I sat on a bench outside Takesushi; the teen would be home soon, though I didn't know what I was going to do. Something in me was telling me to tell him everything, yet… shaking my head; I turned towards the laughter coming from my left. Takeshi was walking home with a few other baseball players; they all seemed to be laughing at the teen's expense. His expression was a mix between embarrassment and resent. I felt a frown on my face, I focused on the pacifier around my neck, I felt wind blow caress my face as I walked forwards.
"Takeshi!" I waved at him and smiled brightly. The teen stopped and stared at me, his whole face softened as he smiled back, he didn't say anything, knowing his friends would just tease him more if he acknowledged ghosts.
"W-whoa! Yamamoto! Who's that?" The teen turned to the guys beside him, he saw them all staring at his friend in awe.
"Huh?" He pointed at Serena; the guys nodded at him and looked back at the girl.
"Ummm?" I walked up to him and grabbed his arm.
"Com'on! I've been waiting all day for you!" I dragged him away from the guys and led him into the shop, grabbing my bag as we passed. He stared at me in amazement as I led him up the stairs, once in his room I let go. I felt exhaustion wash over me, my vision blurred before I felt myself collapse on his bed.
"Serena-chan!" I hushed him and closed my eyes for a moment, letting the feeling pass. He watched in shock as he tried to comprehend what had just happened.
"Sorry, go get cleaned up, I'll explain in a bit. Just let me rest first." The teen nodded and left his room.
In a way, I knew that I wouldn't keep this secret forever, I would have eventually told somebody, but something told me that Takeshi was the only one who would whole heartedly believe me, nobody else would. So when he returned, I explained to him how exactly I had got there, everything that happened in the past with child!Tsuna. I even explained my own past; he was quiet the whole time, his face serious as he took in the information.
"This is the part I'm dreading, not only because it sounds so farfetched, but because it might not even hold true to this world." I told him about their future, a future that might not even happen. He listened with rapt attention, taking every single detail and locking it away into his mind, knowing that one day they might need it.
"That's… really hard to believe." I felt my shoulders slump, I knew there was a chance he wouldn't believe me, I just didn't know what I would do.
"I know, I know that you're not lying, that what you said is the truth, so Serena-chan. No matter what happens." He looked up at me, his eyes narrowing.
"I'll always stay by your side and protect you from this world." I felt my whole body relax at his words, tears springing forth from my eyes. Smiling like an idiot, I threw myself at him, holding onto him.
"Thank you." I felt his arms wrap around me.
"I would do anything for you." I felt him rest his head on my shoulder, my mind seemed to ease, a weight started to lift from my shoulders.
I had someone I could trust, a friend I could count on no matter what.
But, I also took that away from someone. Pushing that thought out of my mind, I felt myself falling asleep, exhaustion once again taking hold of me.
(づ｡◕‿‿◕｡)づ
I was walking with Takeshi to school when it happened, we were going over a few details about the mafia and what he was going to do if and when Tsuna needed him as guardian. He was reluctant, I could feel that, but something in him wasn't so opposed to the idea either. Anyway, we were walking, Hibari was glaring at me from afar, and then the pacifier suddenly lit up. I stared in horror at it, Takeshi watched in curiosity. I swore and shook my head before turning around and running away.
"BYE SEE YOU LATER!" The teen only waved as I ran, I saw Tsuna run past me in his underwear towards Kyoko.
"SASAGAWA KYOKO! PLEASE GO OUT WITH ME!" I felt myself laugh as I ran, wishing that I could see firsthand, but the threat of a certain hitman was terrifying. So I ran, even knowing that nothing could touch me, I wouldn't put it past Reborn to have some sort of ghost killing bullet.
(づ｡◕‿‿◕｡)づ
I sat on a swing as I waited for Takeshi to meet with me, I sighed when he didn't show up. He must be caught up with his team, were my thoughts. Getting off the swing, I made my way towards the pond, figuring a nap would help.
(づ｡◕‿‿◕｡)づ
Tsuna scowled at the child, what in the world was his father thinking! Sending an infant to train him to be a mafia boss! The teen glared at the paper in front of him, his homework could wait, he needed to calm down, maybe a nice hot shower would help. He turned his head to his dresser, something inside him told him it looked off, he ignored it and got up. Walking to said dresser, he grabbed some clothes, the feeling intensified, staring at the dresser, he noticed that his stupid bear was knocked over. He picked it up and threw it into the closet, not knowing why he even brought it out, or kept it for that matter. It was then he spotted something, placing his clothes down, he kneeled to the ground to get a better look.
"This was moved?" He was confused, he never moved it, so why was it? Was it Reborn?
"Hey Reborn, did you move my dresser?" He turned to the infant, the child merely stared at him blankly, taking it as a 'no', Tsuna pushed the dresser out. He saw a thick layer of dust under it, and in the dust, was a smudged handprint, he pulled up a loose floor board, under it, was a picture?
"A drawing?" He pulled it out, the paper was worn, it looked about ready to crumble. Tsuna stared at it, surprise overcoming his features. He remembered drawing this, yet, it was so blurry. The drawing was a blob with spiky brown hair, which was him, and another blob with long black hair and a pacifier around the neck. The picture reminded him of someone, he just couldn't put him finger on it.
"What's that?" The teen turned to the baby.
"Nothing." He crumbled it up into a ball and threw it into the trash, pushing his dresser back into place; he left his room, thoughts racing.
(づ｡◕‿‿◕｡)づ
I smiled as she watched Takeshi play volleyball; all the other players had become sick, or so I heard. I sat near, making sure to hide the pacifier under my 'borrowed' school uniform. Hibari would be pissed at me if I showed up in my usual clothing; then again, he would be pissed either way, considering I have pictures of him as a child. I would need to go dig up those cameras later.
"Let's do this!" Takeshi yelled with his team, which happened to have Tsuna on it. He seemed to scowl when he saw me, face contorting weirdly. I smiled at him either way, knowing that it would only piss him off.
"GO TAKESHI!" I screamed, hearing me seemed to snap him out of something; the teen gave me a bright smiled. The shorter of the two seemed to pause and stare at the taller one before scowling once more. I felt more than saw Reborn high up in the rafters; he seemed interested in the area around him, seeming to be searching for something. I had a feeling it was me. Ignoring him, I watched the game.
Namimori won in the end.
(づ｡◕‿‿◕｡)づ
Takeshi was happy; we had walked back to his house after the game, he seemed to be in high spirits. Then his eyes turned to the teen beside him, the teen was scowling as he walked with us, not wanting to be in our presence any longer than he needed to, the only reason he was there was due to the baby on sitting on his head. I felt my eye twitch at this; I needed to act like I actually existed around them. Tsuna may know about me, but that tiny demon didn't, and I would like to keep it that way as long as possible, so dodging any touch with everyone around me was starting to get on my nerves.
"So… Sawada-san? This is your tutor?" The teen snorted, only to be hit by Reborn.
"Yes, I am Reborn, a renowned assassin." The teen seemed to choke on his spit before he swatted at the kid.
"Stop sprouting nonsense to people around me!" He glared before him as Reborn was on his head; the baby merely turned Leon into a hammer and smacked him in the face. I covered my mouth to keep from giggling. This was amusing, we had finally made it to Takesushi, Takeshi and I went up to the house as Tsuna and Reborn ordered take out. We sat in his room for a while, waiting until I couldn't feel the other pacifier before we began to talk.
"So, that was Reborn?" I nodded to him, he sighed and stretched his limbs.
"Geeze, and here I was hoping to have more time. Oh well, I guess I can start now." I stared at him as he gazed out the window.
"I'll ask my dad to start my training tomorrow, it's the weekend anyway, and I'll also have to rearrange my baseball schedule." I was about to protest when he turned to me, determination clear in his eyes.
"Don't worry about anything Serena-chan, I know what I'll be getting into, and I'll do everything in my power to protect you." I felt like blushing, knowing that he felt that way, I knew he had some type of feeling for me, he just didn't understand them. Neither did I for that matter.
"Thank you." Even though I was capable of taking care of myself, I appreciated it.
"I guess I should also start to train," he looked at me in wonder, "I know some basics, and I also have those swords I told you about. I just need to learn to use them better." The teen smiled at me and gave me thumbs up.
"Then, we'll get stronger, together!" I grinned at him, thinking about how lucky I was to have him as my friend.
(づ｡◕‿‿◕｡)づ
Third)
Takeshi watched with calculating eyes as the silver haired teen walked into the class. 'So, it's started.'
(づ｡◕‿‿◕｡)づ
5300 words! OMG! I'M SO SORRY ABOUT THE WAIT LIKE WTF?! I DON'T KNOW WHAT'S WRONG WITH ME! On the bright side I found my motivation to write this once again, I was just drawing Serena one day, and suddenly, a scene from the future arc came to me, I wrote it down and I was like, "HOLY CRAP I NEED TO WRITE THIS!' but in order to write that I need to actually get there, I wrote part of it and I love it, and now here I am. I originally wanted to wait until I got to where I was last time before I posted this, but what the hell. Here you go, and remember, if you spot anything that doesn't make sense or any bad grammar or spelling, be sure to tell me. No matter how much I read it I always seem to have something wrong with what I write.
