A/N: Y'all, I'm REALLY sorry for the long time to update and then the short updates! But y'all know how much people have to do now-a-days (sigh) But the story shall continue, so please keep reading and reviewing!


She turns around, about to wave Uo over to sit with her, but sees no one. Panicing, Tohru violently stands up and looks around for anything moving.

The only thing that could be mistaken for alive would be the ripples in the water fountain...

And the swish of a black cloth disappearing into a door opposite Tohru...


"Mmmppph!!!! Mmmm!!!" Arisa struggles to break free as her attacker stifles her verbal protests.

Her eyes are open, but she has no idea where she is. Suddenly, her body hits a cold, hard surface as she hears a door slam and lock behind her.

"I need soooo much Asprin right now..." she thinks. As she massages her temples gently, she begins to stand up, staggering slightly.

A rake and a working bench are the first things to catch Arisa's gaze. Even though there are no lights, her eyes adjust well enough to see a wall behind her, also.

"So I can't be in a store: it's too small," Arisa reasons to herself. "Well then where the hell am I?"

((creak))

"Hiyaaaa!" Arisa yells as she kicks the air in front of her. "Who's there?! Show yourself."

Despite Uo's request, no one comes out of the shadows, and she soon finds out it is because no one is there.

((thump))

"Oooop!" she screams, kicking the air this time behind her. As Uo sees no one there, she looks around and then to the floor: a note.

Oh, yay! Crazy man wrote me a letter. Yay... Uo thinks sarcastically.


Please review, y'all : )
