Rayne: You should really just stop making them wait.
Lea-Renee: I'm a tad bit busy plus I wrote some of this down during the Death Note marathon with my friend.

There weren't many people in the cave, fifty at the most but that didn't stop it from being crowded. Everyone was quiet, tending to the wounded, sleeping trying to forget what tomorrow and the next day will bring. Safe places weren't uncommon for communities to have in this world as attacks weren't uncommon either. I sat amongst them with Ryo and Edo who was currently bandaging my arm even though I told him it didn't hurt...much.

I turned my head, looking for my best friends double, with Ryo here and all he was bound to be also but I couldn't see him. "So where's Sho?" I asked still trying to find him.

Edo glared at me as his hand tightened on my arm causing me to wince. "How do you know about him?" he asked, a protective countenance overcame him.

"I don't," not in this world anyway.

"Then how do you know his name?" Edo pressed; turning away from me to give Ryo a comforting smile, then returned to me all reassurance from his features gone.

Instantly I regretted bringing it up because it meant I either came out and told them the truth, which I wasn't going to do even in this world the idea of another dimension would seem mad. There may have been a time when people believed in all that but this was not this time, just like mine this world had given up those ideas, replaced by logic and reason. So I guessed that my only chose really was to bullshit my way past the true answer.

"Ryo, I've heard of you. Should it be all that surprising that I've heard of your brother," hopefully in this world unlike mine people would actually know that Sho was related to Ryo, "Is it not okay for me to want to meet him?"

"Just lay off the topic," Edo growled.

I tore my arm away, getting it bandaged, against my protests might I add, was not worth the pain.

Ryo took Edo's shoulder in a semi-hug, restraining thing. "Calm down Edo and go see if anyone else needs help. I'll handle here."

With reluctance the silverette left, not before he gave Ryo a quick peck on the lips, which I had to smile at and me another glare.

He took my arm gently; it was almost funny how the Ryo in this world, the one who had been put through a lot more strife was the kind and gentle one.

Ryo kept his eye on my arm and held my arm firmly so I wouldn't be able to get away when he asked, "So how did you come to know my brother."

Trying my best to look confused I replied, but I've already told you, I've never met him."

"And I knew you were lying," he said tersely.

I frowned, just as certain of his self as ever. "You wouldn't believe me if I told you," I admitted.

"Try me," was all he said.

I looked at my hands well I thought of the best way to put it, I didn't want to seem too crazy. "Well, as you know, I'm not from around here. I'm very far from home and I met Sho for the first time when I defended him from a pack of bullies but that was be in my..." I sighed when he cut me off before I could say dimension.

"Is he alright? Ryo asked, an almost hopeful look appeared on his face.

Shit, I cussed silently; know he was thinking that my Sho was the same as his. I didn't lie, "Honestly I don't know..." for either of them.

"There," he said, patting my bandaged arm. He left me for a moment, leaving me with my own thought. I cradled my head in my hands, not until Sho was brought up did I think of my friends in my home world. Would they be searching for me? Would they even realise that I wasn't there anymore? I had no idea if time passed differently between the worlds and my couple of hours here may have been mere minutes to them but then again it could be the opposite and it might have seemed that I've disappeared for a couple of days.

I felt an arm drape itself around my shoulder and was surprised to see Edo. "Sorry for being so mean to you before, Sho's been missing for a while and whenever he gets brought up I know it hurts Ryo. You have to understand that I love him and though I don't have it in my power to get his brother back, I don't want the loss of his brother to pain him more than it already is."

I nodded, "yeah, I do."

"Oh and before I forget, here's a new pair of clothes. I think they're about your size and well yours are pretty dirty and bloody," Edo said, thrusting a red shirt and black pair of pants into my hands. "Get changed and try and get some sleep."

"Thank you," I said and before he could leave I grabbed his hand. "Oh and Edo, if I see Sho, I'll try and help him okay."

"Not planning to stay around long?"

I shrugged noncommittally, "Maybe, it's just I have someone I want to find."

Giving him a quick wave I went and got changed. Sitting near the cave opening I looked out to the red sky world, devoid of stars. "I hope I can help you Sho," I whispered to no one, "and I hope I can find you Johan."

Review are met with great happiness!
