Heyy, everyone, I'm back!! :D

No votes, but there are reviews! I'm so happy~! :]

Thanks, MEKI and lara gin, for your reviews! And lara gin, Soto is…adult. I haven't decided his exact age, but he is around…early twenties. Still sort of kiddish, but serious as well. He is, I repeat, not an old man. That would be…shocking. To me, that is.

So please read up and review, everyone, and…Happy Reading!!

-Sorry for the…filler, if that is. It looks like one to me…-

O0o0o0o0o0o0o0o0o0o0o0o0o0o0o0o0o0o0o0o0o0o0o0o0o0o0o0o0o0o0o0o0o0o0o0o

She sighed and thought back – everyone that was weird, everyone she met that was weird…

The first person who popped in her head, oddly, was Mukuro. Probably because he was in her dream, and was the one who 'killed' her first. He had blue hair, with a tuft of hair sticking out of his crown. His mismatched eyes, the crooked way he smiles… And how oddly 180 he was, from the first time she woke from her LOC, and to the time he presented his trident to the badly frightened Kaia. He probably was capable of killing, but he wouldn't kill her yet, like that prince.

That prince, well, Kaia doesn't know his name yet. He's never told her, anyway. He was creepy – Kaia knew he was blonde for a start. He used knives, too. He's got his attention locked on her, and Kaia's badly afraid of him – he had an air about him that told her he could do bad things without a single regret. But to do things without regret, bad things, too, that's pretty horrible for Kaia already – and that led her on in her train of thought.

It led to Hibari. He was the one who had dealt all that physical damage to Kaia. She was sure of that, but she's not sure how he would mentally ruin her. He's the President of the Disciplinary Committee – he's supposed to keep everything orderly and neat. He was one who could play around with things and get away with it in the end. And it seems that he's proven himself capable to play around with her as well. It was as if Kaia were a doll – and Hibari the one tossing her around over the fire.

That fire. Tsuna popped into Kaia's mind. The Underwear-boy. At first, he was just someone weird to Kaia; a maniac that ran around blindly in his undies, his forehead strangely aflame although not even hurting his own body. But, Kaia changed her mind. Tsuna, though being utterly useless in the field of academics, understands emotion well enough to be an expert. He couldn't rest until he made sure the hurt one was fine, and he would always know if something was bothering someone. He was, in a way, like Lambo.

Lambo's a toddler, a kid who doesn't know much about himself or his surroundings. But he does know enough to warm a heart.

And coming to the subject of Tsuna's friends, two of them especially.

Yamamoto's menacing with his sword, which is obviously something to be afraid of whenever he has it. Kaia still fears him a lot, but she's warmed up a little towards him – he's one meant to be a friend. As of the present, though, Kaia still means to keep far away from him.

Gokudera Hayato is obviously a foreigner. Soto told Kaia that he was from Italy – that's quite a distance from Japan. He's a very…tough person who can glare. Kaia can't really say much about him, since that Gokudera really doesn't like Kaia, and because they haven't really gotten to know much about each other yet.

And who else…? That long, flowing, white haired guy. He had a sword, too. There wasn't much about him to say, either.

But this information was quite enough to overwhelm Kaia in a mere week. Kaia sighed and closed her eyes, plopping back in her bed. Her heart was still racing, but she's calmed down now.

I'm sane…am I? Am I normal? No, I'm not normal anymore… I can tell. Heh, it strangely feels so nostalgic… I'm normal, and yet I am not. I'm sane, and yet, I'm not sure if I am insane now… Yes, I'm at the point where I have to doubt myself… But, it's fine after all; I'm to die soon, by the hands of the cruel man. It's all so familiar, and yet it isn't.

Kaia laughed to herself.

Nothing makes any sense anymore, does it? No, it doesn't… Not to me, no. I know everything that's going on, I know that, but at the same time, I don't know anything of it… It's like I only half-know it… But I do know one thing for sure – I'm part of it. No, I can't continue thinking about this. It could be dangerous to me. I know I'm going to die, I know it.

It's time for me to enjoy life for the last time, I think.

She looked to the raging winds, the overcast clouds, the battering rain, the tremendous lightning and thunder outside. She smiled, as if reminiscing.

And in her sparkling eyes, there was, reflected from within her heart, the ghost of a dying will flame.

O0o0o0o0o0o0o0o0o0o0o0o0o0o0o0o0o0o0o0o0o0o0o0o0o0o0o0o0o0o0o0o0o0o0o

Haahhh. :D

Oh yeah, Shoko-Chan, it's coming up… Some real action is coming. :D In a few days, I think, it'll begin at least in two weeks… Sorry, it's not coming that soon, but just a heads-up! It's going to be interesting… :]
