Chapter 4: Kaoru's nightmare

Kaoru

As we walked down the hall, i kept remembering that dream. I just couldnt shake it off! it seemed so real! i usually dont panic over something as silly as a dream, but for some reason i couldnt get this one off my mind. Even with Hikaru with me.

We entered our class and i sat down in my usual seat to the right side of Haruhi, Hikaru on her left side. I put my bag down and crossed my arms over the desk, and layed my head in them. I ignored what the teacher was begining the class with. Probably another story about Her cat loving sister or another thing having to do with cats. i just layed there and thought. i tried so hard not to think about my dream. but those images kept flowing back. Without knowing i soon fell asleep. it was funny because i didnt even feel tired when i did. it was probably out of bordom.

"GRAB THEM! WEVE GOTTA HURRY OR THEY MIGHT GET AWAY!" a thug said as he directed his goons towards Hikaru and I. i clung onto Hikaru scared as he pushed me behind him. He acted tough as he could, not wanting to show them he was scared. i could feel him shaking as i held onto his shirt from behind. They quickly over powered Hikaru. The biggest one, Tattoos running all over his body, even on his shiny bald head, picked Hikaru up by his neck. Hikaru's legs kicked, and he grabbed the guys arms, choking.

"HIKARU! LET GO OF HIM!" i cried

I couldnt stand there anymore. I ducked under Hikaru's legs and punched the guy in the gut with all my might. it must have worked because as soon as i did, he dropped Hikaru, who plumeted to the ground. This time i pushed him behind me. He held his throat, trying to catch his breath.

"You think your tough runt? You better watch your step!" he said angrily. he took a step towards me and kicked me in the face. i felt warm blood fill my mouth. i spit it out and cried. Suddenly the other Goon went to Hikaru and hit him. He layed on the floor, bleeding out of his mouth. The man kicked Hikaru repeatedly, making him let out little screams.

"STOP! STOP IT!" i said threw cries and coughs. The thug stopped kicking Hikaru. He layed there on the floor, spread out, his head turned towards me. his eyes were red and wet from tears, and a stream of blood coming out of his mouth.

suddenly i felt...almost weightless. everything went blurry. and i heard Hikaru's familiar voice, calling for me...everything went black.
