The morning

z day-1

Takashi POV

I woke up with a start and looked around my medium sized room. I scratched my head and tried to recall the dream I had last night, I remember it had something to do with zombies. I laughed at that and thought to myself ' Man, I need to stay away from those films, like that could actually happen.' I stood up and through on the school uniform quickly, it was the first day of school. I grabbed my cell and started to walk out the door as I checked it. I noticed one new message from an unknown number.

The message read " I've granted your request. Don't waste it. Also u wont remember anything about this until a certain thing or action sparks your memory. And with that, good luck. you'll need it."

I stared at it for a second before running out the door to try to catch the train. I couldn't be late on my first day now could I? I decided as I was jogging for the train that I would just ignore the text, it was probably just the wrong number. Plus things like that cant happen. I walked past and saw the girl I love and my best friend kissing on the other side of the road. I walk on a bit quicker, I wish I could stop caring about it, but no matter how hard I try I still care for her and it hurts to see them like that, but if that's whats making her happy

I was in thought when I was snapped out of it by a blaring car horn. My head snapped to look left as I saw a car heading straight at me and froze. I felt someone grab the back of my colar of my shirt and yank me back. I just laid back after that before opening my eyes and calming my breathing. I shakily stood up slowly and looked behind me to see someone, a girl. I think ive seen her around the school . She seems really familiar. She has a really worried look on her face and asks are u okay?

I tell her I'm fine and then introduce myself. She introduces herself after. She seems really familiar but I've never met her in person. I thank her then start walking as I silently thanks heavens and ask if shes my guardian angel. I remember a song in my head I heard a long time ago and start playing the lyrics in my head as I walk. Apparently asking about angel made me remember it. The song goes...

I'm an angel with a shotgun, shotgun, shotgun,

An angel with a shotgun, shotgun, shotgun.

As I was singing the lyrics in my head. Images and scenes flashed trough my head. Like for these two lines there was a picture of me with a shotgun on top of a Humvee.

Get out your guns, battles begun,
are you a saint, or a sinner?
If loves a fight, than I shall die,
with my heart on a trigger.

I saw myself and a short teen prying open a cabinet with a set of guns in it.

They say before you start a war,
you better know what you're fighting for.
Well baby, you are all that I adore,
if love is what you need, a soldier I will be.

I see a picture of the girl who just saved me

I'm an angel with a shotgun,
fighting til' the wars won,
I don't care if heaven won't take me back.
I'll throw away my faith, babe, just to keep you safe.
Don't you know you're everything I have?
..and I, wanna live, not just survive, tonight.
I see me shooting... shooting... ZOMBIES? that cant be right, while she is hitting them with a wooden bokken.

Sometimes to win, you've got to sin,
don't mean I'm not a believer.
..and major Tom, will sing along.
Yeah, they still say I'm a dreamer.

I see myself and her in a shrine as a candle burns out and we lean towards each other. After that scene flashes through my head, I lots of things that I realize might be real, but how? I whisper "saeko" before I fall to my knees and pass out.
