The Bell Ringer Chapter 2

"Hey look what I found!" I'd know her for no longer that a month but she was growing on me.

"What is it Shia?" I answered. She ran up to me.

"I found this rock! It looks like a heart! Tee he~" She held out her hand and in it was a small stone shaped like a heart.

"Isn't it pretty?" She smiled at me. Her eyes glistened. She was so pretty.

"Uh…it sure is..." I didn't know what else to say. It was a rock. Nothing special…yet. I couldn't understand why she was so happy. There was nothing to be happy about. Nothing.

"Um…your bell…"I snapped out of my thought and looked her in the face, "it doesn't work…does it?" she looked at me with her big grey eyes.

"..No. the ringer fell out long ago." I said trying to remember when exactly it happened. She looked at the stone in her hand. I noticed a small hole at the top of it. It may have been used as a charm in the past.

"Give your bell." I heard her say.

"Huh?"

"Your bell silly! Let me see it!" she laughed. I untied the ribbon around my neck and handed her my bell. I looked at her confusingly. She found the small chain inside my bell that once held a ringer and placed the stone on it.

Ring

It was the most beautiful sound I had ever heard.

"It works now!" She exclaimed, handing me the bell. It was like a piece of her...inside of me. I thanked her.

Then she disappeared.

I had heard that she fell into the gate and into the human world. Earth? No way… How could she of? She was stronger than I thought. Nobody could do that.

I decided to go after her. I trained myself and after several years I could finally make it into the human world.

"Taro! You're so funny." I saw her. She was sitting with a boy. I didn't know him…

She had fallen in love with him...I couldn't bear it. I had to get her back.

"Shia…come back with me." After I persuaded her, we left the human world and she regretted it. So I erased her memory.

"I'm missing something..." She said to me one day. She told me she wanted to go to the human world to look for this 'something'. I don't know why…but I gave in. I disguised myself as a cat and we went.

"I'm Misha suuu~" The angel. I hated her. I hated everything at that point. Shia, my Shia, she had changed dramatically. It turned me cold.

The angel picked me up.

"Let go of me!" I hissed.

Somehow, Shia agreed to become roommates with the angel.

Stupid.

Next came Kotarou and his friends. I hated them all. Stay away from me. You'll take her away….Shia.

How could she?

"I want to stay. I love Kotarou and his friends. I can't leave them." She broke me.

"Ok...if you want to…you've found what you were looking for. I'm going back."

"Do you have to go?"

"Yes"

Then I left her. She didn't love me. I loved her. A one sided relationship. What I didn't know was that she did. She did love me.

Soon after I left…she died. I had warned her. She didn't listen.

I rose from the underworld. To get her corpse. To bring her home.

"Cant you bring her back??" Kotarou yelled at me.

"You know I can't do that."

I left him. He was crying. He didn't know how hard I hurt.

I buried her. It was the worst thing I had ever done. I felt a tear run down my cheek.

"Shia…Thank you. I don't care if you fell in love with that boy…Taro…I know you still love me. I love you. I always will…"

I took off my bell and placed it at her grave.

Ring

It was the last time I heard that sound.

End.
