Tara sat at the counter, her head in her hands. What's going on? she asked herself.

Earlier that day

"The man in the black cloak saved me!" Eva said happily. "He pulled out these over-sized Frisbees out of nowhere and destroyed the white guys!"

Tara stared at her. "He what?" she asked.

Eva looked around. A look of sadness crossed her face. "He saved me!" she groaned. "Then someone knocked me out as he was helping me up!"

"Alan..." Tara remembered the name that someone spoke of. "But...the other man...who was...?"

"Eva! Tara!" Lexus came running from the tram common. She was smiling, as if nothing happened. "Have you guys seen Demyx?"

"Who?" Eva asked, confused.

Lexus grinned. "This really weird looking guy in a black cloak!" She said.

Tara froze. "Wait a sec..." her voice trailed off. "Black cloak...are the three connected in some way?"

present

It was now almost midnight, and, still, Tara wondered about the three. One, Demyx; a boy whom had been at the wrong place at the wrong time, who seemed fairly nice, but, something didn't seem right about him.

Two, the man who had saved Evangiline; was he saving her for his own benefit, or because he cared about a damsel in distress?

Lastly, Alan; supposedly the man to put Eva in more danger after the strange man saved her.

All three were connected by the same black cloak. It was all too coincidental.

"Up late again, I see," Eliza's voice whispered from the hallway. Her hair was down, as it always was at night.

"I think better awake, believe it or not," Tara said bluntly. "Besides," she yawned, "I'd rather not have the dream again. As much as I want to know who the person is, I don't want to see anyone like that."

"It's the same for us too," Eliza sat next to Tara at the counter. "But, we would know how to save him if we know who he is! And, if we know what's going to happen that day, we'll know what to do!"

Tara sighed. "It's not that simple!" she groaned. "Everytime that dream comes to me, no one comes into details!" She leaned back. "I can never get a good look at him!"

"Do you try to?" Eliza questioned her.

Tara pondered over that for a minute. "I guess not," she answered. "I guess I've been too scared to."

"That's your problem!" Eliza pointed out. "You've been too scared to look at his face, so, you've been trying to keep a distance, so that when you do meet him, you won't know who he is!" She smiled.

"Where'd you learn that?" Tara smiled back. "A guru?"

"No, actually, a boy!" Eliza blushed. "I didn't get a good look at his face, but, he was really nice! I was in the sandlot, practicing my swing with a struggle bat, and I lost my grip and threw it at him! He didn't seem mad, but, he told me control the bat better!"

"Um...I don't think you should consider him nice for that, but, go on!"

"Anyway, he said that I had a familiar scent on me! Someone he met, maybe, and asked me about my powers! I showed him, and told him about us! I told him about your dream, and he told me 'She's only scared of the past. Her parents died a horrible death, and she doesn't want anyone paying the same price her parents did. Therefore, she's keeping him to a distance.' Super smart! A life lesson!"

"He had a black cloak on him, didn't he?"

"Yeah, but, he also told me, 'If you keep on looking at what's behind you, you'll trip over what's in front of you.'"

Tara sighed. "I swear, it's a fashion statement! Anyway, that friend of yours seems nice. I want you to introduce me one day!" She got up and walked to her room. "Night Liz!"

REM

The dream was different then before. It showed a boy with black hair, but, in the same black cloak the others were wearing. The time of day in the dream was the same. "Why are you doing this?" Tara screamed. "You're a heartless man, you know that?" Tears wouldn't stop flowing from her eyes. The boy only smirked. "Stop it!" She screamed once more.

"Oh, is the little freak worried about her friends?" he asking in a mocking tone. "Don't worry, I'm sure that the Organization is taking care of them. However, I'm not so sure about your little friend here." A dark portal appeared, and a boy, the boy, appeared as it disappeared. He was hurt, Tara could tell that much.

"Are you mental?" She yelled. "He has nothing to do with this, Alan!" His name was all too clear to her.

He held the boy by his silver hair. "Oh, I think that he has everything to do with this."

"T-Tara!" The boy whispered.

"Leave Riku out of this!" Tara yelled. 'Riku...' his name rang through her head. 'That's his name!'

The next morning

"I've got a name!" Tara yelled the next morning at breakfast! "I don't know what's going to happen to the town, yet, but, I've got the boy's name!"

"Well, out with it!" Lexus shouted.

"Yeah," Eva smiled. "You've been having this dream for a while now!"

"His name is Riku!" She smiled. It was rare to see her as happy as she was. "And the man talking in my dreams is name Alan!"

A/N: Was this too fast? O^O
