Chapter 5

"Li, no!" Screams Misaki.

She sits up hastily, panting uncontrollably. Upon regaining her breath she looks at the clock on the wall of her apartment.

1:30am

"I fell asleep" she exclaims.

Without a second to waste she sprints out of her apartment and onto the abandoned streets of midnight Tokyo. She runs, full speed. Pain building in her legs. Heart beating double time. Hoping she hasn't missed what could be her last chance of seeing Hei.

She approaches the park, walking slowly. Scared if she finds him. Scared if she doesn't. Heart thumping. Adrenaline building. Tears forming.

She falls to her knees... no-one's there.

"Li..." she sobs.
