One year later
It's been a year and still I haven't seen or heard of Beyond. All the attention from Beyond's attack on me had almost disappeared and life was almost back to normal. Almost. The attack had left me shaken and afraid. I knew B would be back and it was driving me mad. I was scared out of my mind and I couldn't be left alone or I would freak out. Whenever I saw a white van I ran in the other direction. And worst of all I woke up screaming most nights because of the nightmares. Mom was at her wits end and was ready to send me to an asylum for help. And I was ready to accept. What had happened with B made me long for security and I knew there would be people at an asylum that could look out for me. Guards and whatnot. I knew I needed to go, yet I didn't want to leave my life.
Finally on April 1st I snapped. I was walking outside during my lunch break at school when I heard someone drive up behind me. I turned around and saw a white van pull up beside me and the door opened and a man grabbed me and pulled me into the dark interior of the van. Alarmed I screamed but a hand clamped over my mouth. Tears blurred my vision as I was thrown into a corner and I sobbed.
B had come back for me, I thought, I'm going to die!
I heard laughter and blinked my eyes clear. I turned towards the sound and lunged at the figure that had grabbed me. I struck out with my fists and clawed at their skin until I felt blood coat my hands and make their skin slick. A second person grabbed me.
"Settle down! It's okay! We're only joking around! April Fools, ya know?" I heard the words but they didn't register.
I felt like I couldn't breathe and I gasped for air as my empty stomach churned. My body went rigid and I crouched on all fours, heaving. The others in the van panicked and pulled over where they had picked me up. Strong hands, the same hands that had grabbed me before, helped me out of the van and on to the sidewalk.
"Calm down." I heard the voice tell me, "you'll be okay. It was only a joke."
I looked up to see a senior boy crouched beside me and one of his friends standing behind him, face bloody but not that badly injured. I turned away and threw up stomach acid from my empty stomach. It burned but didn't help, I kept heaving but nothing was coming up, I started to panic because I couldn't breathe. The boys got scared and ran into the school for help. Despite my best efforts my stomach kept trying to make me throw up while my lungs burned for air. Eventually my body couldn't take anymore and I passed out on the sidewalk.
I woke up in the nurses office a little while later. I took out my cell to check the time, 2:35. I groaned and sat up, head spinning. I need a drink. I thought to myself and stood.
"Michi, you're awake. How do you feel?" I heard someone say as I stepped from the nurses office.
I looked over to see one of the secretaries smiling at me.
"I feel like I need a drink. What happened after I passed out?"
"Well all I know is you were carried in by one of the teachers after a group of senior boys tried to play a joke on you."
I nodded and headed for the water fountain. "Thanks."
So it wasn't B, I thought, guess I got really lucky.
I thought about it for a moment then decided I couldn't take any more chances, I needed to go get help. The way I reacted would have gotten me killed if it had be B or a real kidnapper. I needed to go somewhere safe and get medication or a therapist or something. I bent over to drink from the fountain. Something had to be done.
I got home from school and sat down to talk to my mom. "I know this past year has been hard for us all. And I know you think I should be sent to get help. And I couldn't agree more. So I'm going to see about being admitted to a mental institution." She nodded and I went to my room to look up asylums I could go to.
