Risk It all 10

Why would a person like me risks everything,

When we had absolutely nothing.

Living or Dying in this fight wasn't really my plan. And then there was the fact, I'm not suicidal. I could be. We'll put that off for another time. Turning around, quickly, wasn't quick enough. I turned around, ready to knee him in the groin. But then two shots were fired.

Looking up at his face, i watch as a smile becomes plastered to his face. All I could think is, what have I done?

I told myself this. I made the rules, FOR GOD'S SAKE! The rules, those five rules, why couldn't i follow them?

He looks down on me, his face hardens. Mine: Disarray, distorted, grimace, hollow...

"Rima, it's time to go. And from the looks of it, you won't struggle." No pity, no sympathy. That's good, it adds no salt to the wound...

Following out the door, I now hear nothing. Silence, my comfort...

Something passes through my legs..KusuKusu? Reaching down, I grab for her. Her soft fur grasping through fingers. Her sweet honey smell, it's like she's sending a message to my brain. BANG

Looking out of the corner of my eye, I see them. Utau, kicking the men ( who don't have weapons, or course) where the sun don't shine. Amu and Ikuto shouting at the camera, their words flowing to my ears out of the room. Kukai, coming into a fist fight with the someone who tried to jump Utau. What a wonderful couple. Life's a fairytale. This isn't real. This isn't. I look at KusuKusu.

"KusuKusu, you believe me too, right. This isn't real. No one would want to save me. This isn't real?" Trying to convince myself, I know it's not working. I close my eyes. Listening to Kazuomi Hoshina shout at everyone. Commanding them to do something about them. Footsteps echoing everywhere. Kazuomi grabs my arm and shoves me roughly towards the door. "KusuKusu, I can't do this." Warm, salty, wet tears slide down my cheeks. I can't do it. He opens the door, tyring to shove me out of the room. I turn to look at Amu, Ikuto, Kukai, Utau, their fighting for me. Trying to get past Kazuomi. Every kick, every punch, every message of pain, why are they fighting for me? I'm nothing. Sobbing, I find my voice. "WHY ARE YOU FIGHTING FOR ME? WHAT HAVE I EVER DONE TO BE CALLED YOUR FRIEND?" Now picking me up, he heads to the door.

"RIMAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA!" Opening my eyes, Nagi. Your here, too? Shoving, racing towards me, he punches Kazuomi in the nose. Dropping me, my knees slam into the liomenum floor. Nagi, moving fast-paced, picks me up and sprints. Amu and Ikuto kicking the last of the men, slamming the door behind them. Sirens erupt through the building. Running together, panting, we hear more footsteps coming front both sides, both hallways. Ikuto (Being the tall skyscaper he is) pushes the ceiling. It's one of the ceiling like the school. Move the light weight sytrofoam, Poof!, there a hole in the ceiling. Ikuto pushing Amu first, then Utau, Kukai finally me, up the hole. (WELL, THAT WAS AN AWKARD SENTENCE!) Nagi and Ikuto finally climb up. Pitch Black again.

"Ri-chi? Are you okay? Yaya doesn't think so." Yaya said, her childish voice echoing off the walls. Something shifts hesitatedly beside me.

"I'm fine." Letting my monotone voice drone. Truth, I was scared to death. I wanted someone to tell me this was alright, it was just a bad dream. I wanted to be held close, letting their warmth be my comfort. No, that wouldn't happen.

"Liar.." A soft voice whispers into my ear, their breath tickling my spine. Nagihiko...

"Well, I need a cat nap. I don't know 'bout you, but I'm going to sleep." Ikuto's loud voice lingering in the air.

"HENTAI COSPLAY NEKO! DON'T LAY THERE!" Amu's voice shouts screaming.

"Good way to thow in an akward." Finally cracking a smile, at least i still have my sarcasm.

"Yeah, especially when we can't see you." said Utau.

"YOU HENTAIS!" Amu screeches. Soon afterwards, we bursted out laughing.

Everyone was sleeping, yes, still in the ceiling where i believe we shall die of the air, or fall through the ceiling like ninjas...I know what I'm gonna be for Halloween.

"Rima...You sleeping?" Nagi whispers to me. What's with him and whispering today?

"No, I'm flying with the pigs." Sitting up, trying to face towards him. I still can't see. Damn..

"Oh, ok."

...

"Anyways, I think i should answer your question now." My question? I didn't have-

I turn to look at Amu, Ikuto, Kukai, Utau, their fighting for me. Trying to get past Kazuomi. Every kick, every punch, every message of pain, why are they fighting for me? I'm nothing. Sobbing, I find my voice. "WHY ARE YOU FIGHTING FOR ME? WHAT HAVE I EVER DONE TO BE CALLED YOUR FRIEND?" Now picking me up, he heads to the door.

Oh...yah...

"Rima, were your friends. At least you should remember that Amu, Yaya, and Utau are. And Utau's brother is Ikuto. And Utau and Kukai are childhood friends. But I guess that leaves me. Rima..I'm your friend, too. I mean, we were friends when you were little too. Childhood friends. And suddenly, you vanished. And now I know why."

"Nagi, I never knew you." I said to him slowly. I never had a...'guy' friend.

"Yeah, you did. But you probably knew me as someone else...Rima..I'm Nad-." Dear person, who is reading this. I know, he was about to tell me something, that would change my life forever. But guess what. I decided to be a ninja, and fall through the ceiling with KusuKusu in my arms. That's how awesome I am.

I like the ending! HaHa.. It's not yet over, maybe in about 2-3 chapters, I'll be able to stop the story, and start a new one. But what will it be about, I wonder? Please Review. And I think something interesting will happen in the next chapter. Give you 3 hints: It involves a gun, Nagi, and Rima fights!

I give my thanks toooo:
