(Rebecca's POV)

Well, now that I finished rereading the brochure to make sure that they didn't have a 'you must bring' list, which they in fact did not, I'm ready to pack.

What do I bring…

I have no clue.

Let's start with the necessities! Toothbrush, toothpaste, brush, other hygiene products… yeah. Clothes, shoes, necklaces, such as my paper Uchiha symbol that is taped to a chain, and hair things. Then I'll pack a few extra things. My manga books, my cell phone, even though I might not be allowed to use it, my stash of Halloween candy, my laptop, my Wi-Fi connecter, my chargers, my IPod, and a few books. Good thing I didn't wait till the last minute to pack, I might find a few extra things lying about that I'll want to bring and can add them in. The brochure said that pets were allowed, but I don't think that my parents would want me to take Mr. and Mrs. Mew Mew to Japan. Yes. I have two cats. And they're named Mr. Mew Mew and Mrs. Mew Mew. Shut up.

I took out my laptop and logged into a chat room. Surprisingly, both Raine and Hesper were there. All I saw of what must have been a completely meaningless conversation was:

VicEveSamAlex (Hesper): FATE IS SO MUCH BETTER THAN DESTINY!!! NOBODY CARES WHAT YOU THINK!!!

Theenchantingninjapenguin (Raine): TT-TT

Sasuke Uchiha 7 (me): Having another meaningless argument again, I see?

VicEveSamAlex: Shut up log boy.

Sasuke Uchiha 7: oh…

Theenchantingninjapenguin: :p

Sasuke Uchiha 7: Did either of you guys pack yet?

Theenchantingninjapenguin: yes. I packed many things that surprisingly fit into two bags…

VicEveSamAlex: … Maaaaaayyyyybbbbeeeeeee…

Sasuke Uchiha 7: You didn't even start, did you.

VicEveSamAlex: …

Lunar Runaway Hiri: SUP YO! I LIKE PIE!!!

VicEveSamAlex: …

Sasuke Uchiha 7: …

Theenchantingninjapenguin: … WTF

Lunar Runaway Hiri: TT-TT I feel so unloved…

Sasuke Uchiha 7: Sure… so, have you packed yet?

Lunar Runaway Hiri: No, I have all night still. I mean, we don't have to be at the meeting point, which is less than 20 minutes away from my house, until noon. So I figure, if I go to sleep at 5, I'll get 6 hours of sleep in.

Sasuke Uchiha 7: Right, I forgot you're nocturnal…

Lunar Runaway Hiri: It comes in handy sometimes, but not when I'm supposed to be awake and at school in the middle of the day, I mean, REALLY, who in their right mind would do that anyway!?!

Sasuke Uchiha 7: *raises hand*

Theenchantingninjapenguin: …me…

VicEveSamAlex: …

Lunar Runaway Hiri: I said in their right mind, Raine.

Theenchantingninjapenguin: Oooooohhhh…. Woops…

Sasuke Uchiha 7: well, I g2g, it *is* 10:00 after all.

Lunar Runaway Hiri: Bye then.

Theenchantingninjapenguin: I guess I should get going too, I don't want to catch a random illness that's caused by staying up too late like I always seem to do.

VicEveSamAlex: Bye.

Theenchantingninjapenguin has left the chat room.

Lunar Runaway Hiri: So are you gonna leave too?

VicEveSamAlex: psh, who do you think I am? … … … … … … *sigh* yes…

Lunar Runaway Hiri: So that's it then… you're going to leave me all by myself…?

VicEveSamAlex: … Gee, I'll call a Wahmbulance (nms)

VicEveSamAlex has left the chat room.

Lunar Runaway Hiri: Bitch. So, Rebecca, how's it going?

Sasuke Uchiha 7: How did you know I was still here?

Lunar Runaway Hiri: The thing didn't say 'Sasuke Uchiha 7 has left the chat room.' I'm not an idiot… don't say anything.

Sasuke Uchiha 7: do you think the others realized?

Lunar Runaway Hiri: Nah. Hesper isn't smart enough and Raine probably had another ADD moment.

Sasuke Uchiha 7 has left the chat room.

Wow. My friends are really strange… I wonder if Hiri is cursing me off right now… eh, who cares? I packed my laptop back into my luggage and grabbed one of my favorite manga books. I lay down on my bed and flipped open to my favorite part. This would let me sleep peacefully tonight. (SPOILER ALERT FOR NEXT SENTENCE) I read the part in the series where Itachi dies. (SPOILER ALERT OVER) That death makes me feel all warm inside. Yes, in fact I am a Sasuke fan girl. Therefore, I strongly dislike Itachi. That and the fact that my nickname at school is Sasuke and every one that's a friend of mine pokes me in the forehead constantly.

With Itachi's death on mind, the world around me became blacker and blacker.

Suddenly I'm surrounded by bodies and people that are constantly being slaughtered and maimed and are falling to the ground. The person jumps down in front of me and I see the silhouette of Itachi. Slowly the figure walks toward me. Suddenly a street lamp is shining down on me. The silhouette gets closer and closer laughing the whole time. Suddenly, his laugh transforms from a deep masculine and threatening laugh to that of a more feminine and crazed laugh. The silhouette slowly changes shape so that it now looks more like… HIRI!?!? She steps into the light, holding a bloody katana that drips a shiny red liquid. Suddenly she's inches from me holding a glimmering kunai to my neck, this weapon completely devoid of blood. She whispers with a tinge of crazy sounding in her voice, "When there's a knock on the window, open the door. Pull up a chair, sit on the floor. Turn around, look at me. Close your eyes, then you'll see…" If it comes from her mouth it makes no sense. Suddenly she held up a picture of Sasuke dying, an extremely graphic one at that, and turned around to cry. Suddenly she pushed me off the Empire State Building and I plummeted toward my death.

"HIRI, WHY!" I yelled sitting up in bed, tears streaming from my eyes.

"What the…?" I looked around. I was safe and sound in my bed, no bandages, and all my memory. I looked at the clock 6:59 AM. It ticked to 7:00. Beep! Beep! Beep! The alarm on the clock started going off. How ironic. I make sure to set the alarm clock, and then I wake up a minute before it goes off.

"Bad omens…" I whisper to no one in particular. I jump out of bed and get ready for the day. This was the second time Hiri has made me cry in my dreams.
