Chapter 6
Keiko turned to John "I can't believe your actually listening to this" she snapped at him "I mean I know you're a jock but I'd always credited you with at least more brains then this, I'm going outside for a smoke" once again she turned to leave the room and once again John stopped her "you do know those things will kill ya don't ya?" Keiko answered him without even turning to face him "in that case lucky me, at least I know what's gonna finish me off, for you it could be anything" John had no come back to this, Keiko had a reputation in the school for always having the last word in an argument, even under these circumstances she appeared to have kept this skill. She eventually left the room. "I'm gonna go talk to her", said Phil "good idea" Kat commented "I don't think any of us should be alone until we figure out a way to beat this" Phil left the room closing the door behind him.
By the time Phil got outside and caught up with her Keiko was in tears struggling to light her cigarette as her hand was shaking too much. Phil grabbed hold of her hand and guided the flame to the white stick in her mouth. Keiko eventually stopped shaking enough to ask "Why do follow me around like some lost puppy? Don't you get it? I don't even like you" Phil just smiled and replied "I know that, but I like you" this time it was Keiko's turn to smile.
"So how are we gonna beat this?" Tom once again asked the question that everybody was thinking, but nobody answered. Kat was looking having to hold back a laugh as she thought to herself she would have to tidy the place up, knowing whatever has happened her mom wouldn't forgive her for not cleaning the house. The phone started to ring John reached to pick it up, "let the machine get it" said Kat said "Hello Katherine are you there?" it was her moms voice, she was the only person who didn't call her Kat "I hope your just in the shower not out at some party, well I was just calling to check on you, call me when you get this message, oh and clean the place up I don't want it looking like a car wreck when I get back" it was as though her mom was reading Kats mind "love you sweetheart bye" John looked confused "don't you wanna talk to your mom?" Kat looked to the ceiling and sighed "you don't know my mom she wouldn't believe us if we told her plus she's not even in the same hemisphere right now so I wouldn't want to worry her"
Outside Phil and Keiko were still talking and shaking "you know if Kat had never had that vision and we had been forced to kill the rest of the class, I would have protected you to the end" Phil said timidly "yeah I know you would" said Keiko. As Keiko brushed her hair back, Phil thought to himself how she looked even more beautiful then usual under the moonlight he was just in the process of building up the courage to say this aloud when Keiko interrupted his thoughts with "oh shit". "What is it" Phil asked "I've lost an earring it's my horse shoe me and Tanya bought a pair together and kept one each."
Keiko was bent over on the floor looking for the horse shoe by the time she heard the screech of brakes she was already being pushed out of the way by Phil.
When they heard the smashing metal and glass John, Tom and Kat leapt to the window simultaneously just in time to see the car explode. At first none of them could see Phil or Keiko, then they came walking into view Keiko was limping supporting herself by leaning against Phil
