Black Stars-

Misa's P.O.V.

I woke up on the couch of my sister's living room. I got up to stretch but when I put my right foot on the ground, it began to sting a little. I looked at Anri's bed, but no Anri. 'Where the heck is she?' I began to worry that something terrible had happened.

'No it's fine. She probably just slept over at a friend's house.' I tried to convince myself that, but when I saw her cell phone lying on the kitchen counter I began to worry again. 'What if she was kidnapped? What if she was in an accident? Should I call the police? Yeah I'll do that!'

I rummaged through my bag, trying to locate my cell phone. 'How do you lose a cell phone in this tiny thing?' I had my black iPod nano, my dark blue headphones, my panda wallet, some gum but no cell phone.

I heard a familiar ringing coming from somewhere and then I realized it was coming from the couch cushions. I frantically searched the couch, and stuffed my hands into the seat cushions. I felt something cold and rectangular in shape. 'My phone!' I lifted it out and smiled in triumph as the song ended. The last thing I heard was 'caramelldansen' coming from the phone before the call was ended.

A message popped up on the screen: 2 Missed Calls from Ren. 'Oh I have to make sure to call Ren back later.' I began to dial in the number for the police station and after a while I was talking to a woman.

"Hello, what seems to be the problem?" The woman asked.

"Yes, um my little sister hasn't been here the whole night and her cell phone is here so I wanted to know if I need to file a missing persons report or something." I stated very rapidly too.

"Alright I'll need to know how old she is, her name, a brief description, as well as how long she's been gone.

"She's 15 and her name is Anri Sonohara. She has straight black hair to her neck, brown eyes, wears glasses and she's also very busty. And I don't know how long she's been gone I just got in last night from Harajuku."

"Alright well in this case you'll need to wait it out for eight hours. If she has not contacted you in that time then you can file a missing persons report. Until then we'll keep a look out for her."

"Alright, thank you officer." I hung up the phone and looked at the time; 8:22 a.m.

'Oh Anri, I really hope you're at a friend's house.' I tossed the phone on the couch and proceeded into the bathroom in the hallway. I ran warm water and the bathroom was soon filled with steam.

I stripped down and got in the shower. The warm water felt so nice on my skin, especially on my ankle. I picked up the cherry blossom scented shampoo and squeezed out pink goop. I ran it through my black, chest length hair and then rinsed it out with the warm water. I repeated the process with the conditioner and then cleaned my skin with a bar of soap that smelled like a mint. I rinsed my body, turned off the water and then reached for a towel on the bathroom shelf. I stepped out and began drying myself, then put the towel around my body when I finished. I walked out of the bathroom, my hair still wet and leaving small drips on the wooden floor.

I walked to my room at the end of the hall and opened the closet. I had sent my things here the day before I came. 'I'm glad they got here.' I lifted up a purple and black stripped suitcase and placed it on the bed. I went through it until I found the outfit I wanted to wear. I changed and then looked in the mirror to see if everything was alright.

I wore a light blue tank top, with a buttoned up vest, black ripped skinny jeans, and ankle cuff black boots. For accessories I wore black fingerless gloves with three blue bangles on my right hand, and a bottle cap necklace locket that had a picture of me and Anri when we were kids.

As I looked at my reflection in the mirror I took notice that Anri and I didn't really look alike. I had straight to wavy, black, hair that went to my chest with bangs on the right side of my face that covered up my cheek and partially my right eye. I had light blue eyes and didn't wear glasses. I sometimes wondered if my mother had an affair, but blood tests proved I was biologically related to our father. The only thing that made us look related was our body figure.

But the one thing that stood out was something no one ever knew, no one would ever find out, and something that I want hidden in the dark forever. I ran away when our dad got drunk and beat us. I should have stayed and protected Anri and our mother, but I didn't. I don't even remember how old I was when I left.

A single tear ran down my face, from the remembrance of the awful memory. I wiped away the tear and I put my dark blue headphones around my neck and turned on my iPod to shuffle. The first song that came on was "Complication" by ROOKiEZ is PUNK'D.I stuffed my iPod into my back jean pocket and began to clean the house.

I picked up my clothes from the bathroom, swept the floors, cleaned the counter, and put the pillows back onto the couch. There wasn't really much to clean and I was done with everything in a half hour. 'Anri's apartment is really clean.'

I sat down on the couch and checked the time; 9:10. A small growl came from my stomach. "I'm hungry, time to make some breakfast."

I went into the small kitchen and opened the refrigerator door. "Hmm. What to eat. I want some eggs with bacon." I looked in the egg carton and found three eggs left. "I'll go shopping when Anri gets back. I like the sound of that. Not 'if' but 'when'." I took out the eggs and found strips of bacon in the second drawer of the refrigerator.

After about ten minutes I was done and ready to eat. But before I could even sit down my phone started to ring.

I picked up the phone from the couch and looked at the caller I.D.; unknown number. I slid open my phone and pressed the talk button. "Hello?"

"Hello. Are you Misaki Sonohara and older sibling of Anri Sonohara?" a woman asked. I didn't remember the voice though.

"Yes and yes."

"I have some very troubling news for you. Your sister seems to have been in a terrible accident."

I'm very sorry this took forever. I had to go back and edit and then write this chapter and I got writers blockage. So I went with the flow and then my flow got clogged and yeah…
