Disclaimer: I don't own anything.

Me: I don't have anything to say except that this chapter will most likely suck…I got nothing.

Austin: Isn't your birthday on September 27? That's only, like, a bit over a week from now, right?

Me: Oh…yeah…YAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAYYYYYYYYYY!

Austin: Ow! My ears, darn it! Why are you so happy? You didn't care about birthdays to much before.

Me: Yeah, but someone may get me a Chinchilla this year. Or at least a new CD 'cause I only have 2.

Austin: How do ya figure you may get a Chinchilla?

Me: Well, I went to Pet-smart with my Grandma and saw a Chinchilla there. It was soooooooooo cute! I loved it! It was the only thing I talked about while we were there.

Austin: Don't they live from 10-15 years?

Me: Yeah, that's the only bad part. Mom or Dad'll have to take care of it while I'm at collage in some years from now. Also, if the Chinchilla's a boy I'd name it Chinji or Demyx and if it'd be a girl, I'd name it Tinker Bell.

Austin: Why Tinker Bell?

Me: Because-

(Eli pops out of nowhere) Eli: Hey, guys, do you think that mayonnaise has drugs in it?

(Confused) Austin: What?

Me: No, 'cause then you'd be addicted to mayonnaise.

(Eli stares at me) Eli:…

(Austin stares) Austin:…

Me: Oh, sorry, I forgot….


After Lumaria and Myde woke Lea up by kicking him in the head and stomach several times, they were able to start out to follow the blood trail. That's not to say they weren't scared to do it, though. They were terrified. For their life and for their friend, but they weren't going to let him down. So, off they went to follow the blood trail. Which was really hard because it was dark and the trail led to the woods. The woods are pitch black at night. Now, as if that wasn't a problem enough, one of the group is afraid of the dark. Well, not the dark exclusively, just what was in the dark. Guess which person that had the fear?

"AHHHHHHHH!" The blond musician screamed for the 5th time that night, from the slight breaking of twigs Lea had stepped on. Myde jumped into the air and into said red-heads arms. Prepared for the extra weight, as Myde had done the same thing 4 times in the past 20 minutes, Lea leaned against a nearby tree for support to hold the other up…before dropping him flat on his ass. (Like Roxas : p)

"Myde, I'm getting sick and tired of you jumping into my arms at every little noise we make. Next time, I'm not going to bother catching you before letting you drop on your ass!" Now, usually, Lea would like the closeness of the blond but this was ridiculous!

The younger made a face before turning to the oldest one in the group with a pout. "Lu-lu…" But the strawberry head didn't hear him. Lumaria was staring at the ground, zoned out and eyes glazed over thinking about all that'd happened in the past hours before hand. It started out as an ordinary day, but turned into a terrible one.

'Everything's just so confusing. Why Ienzo, why now? Everything was going so perfect just a few months ago. Now, everything's going to hell. Lea keeps nearly having panic attacks from fainting so much, Myde…well, I don't think everything's sunk in yet. Probably in denial. I think I'm in shock and partially dead on the inside. Ienzo…Oh, god Ienzo. It's like everything's out to get you, isn't it? You keep secrets from us and keep the ones around you safe, all at the cost of your freedom and health. Just thinking about him makes my heart ache…Do I really lo- like you, how Myde says?'

"Luuuu…Luuuuuuu….Luuuuuuuuuuuu…LUMARIA!" It probably wasn't a good idea to yell in a dark, mysterious forest but it was the only way Myde could get Lu-lu- I mean, Lumaria's attention. (1)

"Gaahhh!" The strawberry head (2) finally snapped out of his daze…then falling flat on his ass. (3) He sat up and looked around as if he had no idea what was going on. "Wazzuh?"

Lea snorted. "Walk much, dumbass?"

The lump on the ground called Lumaria just stood up, before putting his hands in his pockets and starting down the path again, head hung low. As he walking, Lea let out a low whistle and mumbled something about "Bad atmosphere" and "Loo's" (4) before heading off him self. Myde stared at their retreating backs before a stick breaking made his jump from his trance. He sped after the two yelling for them to wait up, stumbling all the way.


Now, with the amount of blood Ienzo had lost, one would think that he'd be dead by now. Then again, if you were protecting your friends, you wouldn't give up that easily, would you? In all actuality, the young boy couldn't actually feel the pain. His body was in a form of shock. That wouldn't last for too long but for now, his body would function normally until the shock passed and the pain along with unavoidable death that would probably follow, Ienzo was painfully aware of this. So, for the next few minutes of his life, he was going to use the shock to his advantage.

He just had to figure out how.


Okay, in this chapter, not much happened but at least I got it updated right? Well, hey, the next chapter will be the beginning of the End. Also, here's a secret… I'm thinking of making an epilogue if all goes well, yanno. Yes, this chapter sucked, I know. Please don't remind me. And, for this chap. at least, don't bother reviewing. I know it sucked. .

(1) Because Lulu is totally not a girl name. (Sarcasm)

(2) I just love calling him that, don't you?

(3) Like Roxas and Lea. ; D

(4) Lumaria
