Chapter 3: Why Me?!

AUTHOR'S NOTES: If you haven't already noticed, each chapter is written in the perspective of a different character in the story. This one is, of course, the epicness that is Brian. Also, REVIEW!

I'm so fricken dead! I've just killed a yard duty, and now Alexa's game plan is the most absurd thing I've heard on Earth. Okay, I better slow down and tell you what's going on. First off, let's go back to where Alexa was being really cool for the first time. Her plan kind of went like this.

"Okay, guys," she said, "Here's the plan. First off, we need Brian to get the heck out of Ridgecrest for about the next couple of hours. Because he kicked the woman to death, DNA won't be found. I think Brian should probably hide out in the bathroom or something. Meanwhile, we we're gonna turn this body to ash."

"Ash?" Austin whimpered, "Alexa, you want us to burn the yard duty?" Alexa nodded.

"Heck, yeah," she said, "Burning it'll leave no evidence. We're gonna have to tend to the fire for about six hours, so we need an alibi for where we'll be." K shook her head.

"I'm not up for this, Alexa," she said, "This is too extreme. And, by the way, where's Brian?" I was examining the yard duty's pockets at the time, because I saw something that peaked my interests.

"BRIAN YOU IDIOT!" Alexa whispered loudly so no one could hear. She pulled me away, and held me by my shirt collar, which I hate. Her teeth were gritted, and her fists were shaky.

"You...just touched the body," she said, "Now you've just made this ten times harder." I shook my head and pointed to what I saw.

"Look," I said calmly, "There's some sort of toy in it." Alexa glared at me.

"And why should I care about a toy some pedophile yard duty had?" I shook my head.

"Let me show you." I pushed Alexa away, and grabbed what was in the yard duty's pockets to show to my friends.

"K, Austin, Arabella, Yumi, CiCi, Alexa, look at this." They all crowded around me to see what was in my hands: A circular spinner that was split into four quadrants. (If I seriously have to explain to you what the quadrant looked like, I'm going to smack you upside the head.) Anyways, each quadrant was labeled with a different anime. One was labeled Berserk, one was Durarara!, another was labeled Naruto, and the last quadrant was labeled Soul Eater. Yeah!, I thought, Death the Kid! Alexa frowned.

"I think I know what this is." she said. Everyone looked at her in awe except for me, because I'm just that epic.

"Yeah," she said, "I know exactly what this is. If you spin the arrow and it lands on one of the anime, then you get sucked into an anime."

"How'd you know that?" CiCi asked. Alexa shrugged.

"I don't know, I read the directions on the back." I flipped the spinner around. Sure enough, there were directions. I read them aloud.

"How to Warp Through Universes," I stated, "Step One: Spin the spinner. Whatever it lands on, you will immediately get sucked into. Step Two: Do not grow attachments." I frowned and looked at Alexa. "What do you think it means by attachments?" Alexa shrugged.

"Maybe it means we shouldn't fall in love with anyone in the anime?" Everyone glared at Alexa. She was in love with about thirty anime characters, so much so she even had dreams about them.

"What?" she asked innocently. I kept reading.

"Step Three: Don't die. Step Four: You have seven years." I began to laugh my maniacally evil laugh. "What the heck is this supposed to be? Half of it doesn't even make sense!" Alexa walked passed me.

"Hey," I called, "What're you...Oh my god." I stared at Alexa as she picked up a slip of paper that must've been the yard duty, because the yard duty was gone, and this sheet of paper was all that was left.

"Hello," she read, "My name is No One. I created the spinner so that anime fans could live their dream of meeting their favorite anime characters. I search the world looking for the most devoted fans in the world. The current user did not die from the Asian child kicking her. I killed her by using my power of the Death Note. I am not a God, but I am not human. For a better explanation, you can think of me as the divider between universes. Their are several universes and their parallel universe, and anime is no exception. For every anime made, I can acquire something from it by using the spinner, so I was able to acquire the Death Note. Anyways, you have acquired the spinner from me, so it is my civic duty to inform you how it works. The woman I just killed broke rule number two: Do not grow attachments. She attempted to spin the spinner twice in one day, which is forbidden. (You can only spin it once per day.) When she came back, I decided her death should be when I find you. So, here is a description of the rules and regulations of my creation:

Rule Number One: Do not grow attachments. If makes you irrational.

Rule Number Two: Don't die. If you die in an anime, you will not be able to get back to your home world because you are deceased.

Rule Number Three: You have seven years to live in the anime, which is seven days on your world.

Rule Number Four: You only spin the spinner twice per day: Once in the anime to get home, and once on your world to go into the anime. If, by chance, you are traveling in a group, one of you will have the spinner, and all of you shall arrive in the anime at different times. The seven year rule begins when the person who has the spinner arrives in the anime.

Rule Number Five: Do not break these rules. If you break any of them, you shall die." Alexa turned to us.

"Well," she said, "Here's the new plan. After school, meet me at my house. If you don't know my address, call me. We're gonna spin this thing, and Brian'll be our guinea pig. He'll spin it, and we'll see what happens. Agreed?"

"Agreed!" everyone shouted except for me. Why do I have to be the guinea pig? Why me?!
