Chapter Five

Looking For Antidote

It was 9:30 A.M. I was extremely tired. I didn't sleep after I had the nightmare. I stayed awake staring out the window crying. I looked over at Kiba who was asleep. I walked over to him and looked down at him as he slept. I wonder what he was dreaming of. I want to dream again instead of having nightmares all the time. Suddenly Kiba shifted in his sleep and turned over to where he faced me. He opened his eyes and jumped.

"God! Dude what the heck!" screamed Kiba as he jumped away from me. "Oh my God you freaking scared me"

"I'm sorry," I said as I walked back to my bed and sat down.

"Dude how long have you been awake?" asked Kiba. "You look like shit"

"Since I had the nightmare," I said as Kiba sighed.

"That's like since midnight," said Kiba. "What are planning to do? To stay awake the whole time?"

"No, I don't know," I said as I got up. "I'm going to take a shower"

I walked out in the hallway where I saw my dad looking at me. He sighed and put his hands on my shoulders.

"You're up to something. And don't think that you can hide it from me. I won't rest until I figure it out," said my dad as he went downstairs. I turned to look at Kiba who just shrugged.

I went inside the bathroom and turned on the shower. I stripped off my cloths and went inside the bathtub. I rubbed shampoo into my hair and thought about how long I had to live before I was dead. One week? Two weeks? A day? How long will Sasuke keep playing around with me before he finally decided to kill me? I wonder how much his other victims suffered. I sighed and rinsed the shampoo and body wash off of me. I got out of the bathtub and started to brush my teeth. I rubbed my hand on the mirror to clear away the fog from my hot shower. As I rubbed the fog away I saw it staring back at me laughing. I quickly covered my mouth so no one would hear my scream. Because they wouldn't be able to help me; I bet they wouldn't even be able to see it.

"So you finally decided to come after me when I'm awake?" I asked as I dug my fingernails into my palms from screaming and running away.

"What are you going to do now Naruto? You can't stop me," I heard someone say into my ear. I quickly turned around but saw no one there.

"How many of you are there?" I asked as it laughed even harder. "Shut up and answer my question"

It suddenly reached through the mirror and threw a piece of glass at me. The glass cut my cheek and fell on the ground. I quickly put my hand on my cheek and picked up the glass. I looked at it and gasped. It already had dried blood on it. I looked back into the mirror. It was gone. I grabbed a bandage and put on my cheek. Great now my parents will question me on how I got this cut. I continued on brushing my teeth hoping that it wouldn't return. After I was done brushing I went back inside my bedroom where I saw Kiba on his phone. He looked up and gasped.

"Naruto what happened? Why are you carrying a broken glass with…um is that blood?" said Kiba as he took the glass.

"It's nothing just go take your shower," I said.

"No you tell me what happened," said Kiba.

"Nothing happened. I swear," I said as Kiba frowned and went angrily to the bathroom. Great now he's pissed. I grabbed my phone and looked at the text message Ino sent me.

From: Ino Girly.

Hey Naruto meet me at the library with Kiba. I have research to tell you about. I think this might solve the whole case with Sasuke Uchiha. But it might be dangerous. So…just please come and be safe.

I put on my clothes and headed downstairs where I saw my dad and mom talking. They stopped and immediately turned to look at me.

"What's that cut on your cheek sweetie?" asked my mom.

"Oh it's nothing," I said as I sat down.

"Really?" said my mom as she put a plate full of pancakes in front of me.

"Yeah really," I said as my mom crossed her arm.

"Fine don't tell me. And I guess that you're not going to tell me about why you look so tired either?" said my mom. Why is everyone getting pissed at me today?

"I'm sorry mommy. It's just nothing important," I said.

"Well whether or not it's important to you it will always be important to me," said my mom as she kissed me on my forehead.

I watched as Kiba came down the stairs he didn't even look at me. He sat down and look away from me. I rolled my eyes and continued to eat my pancakes. He'll get over his anger tantrum soon. My mom put a plate full of pancakes in front of him as he started to eat quietly.

"Why are you two so quiet today?" asked my dad.

"I don't know," I said as Kiba narrowed his eyes at me.

After we were done eating I grabbed Kiba's hand and dragged him out the front door. He was still angry at me.

"Kiba just get over it already," I said as he pulled his hand out of mines.

We continued to walk to the library in silence. It was extremely awkward. Usually Kiba and I always chatted and laughed together but this time it complete silence. And it hurt. I didn't want to tell Kiba what happened in the bathroom because I knew he would be scared. And I didn't want to scare him. I was going to tell him what happened after he was done with the bathroom but everything went the wrong way. Oh well he'll come around soon. As we arrived at the library I saw Ino sitting at a table filled with books and papers. She smiled as she saw us and immediately jumped up to hug us.

"Hi guys," she said as she turned to look at Kiba who was frowning at the ground. "What's wrong Kiba?"

"Why don't you ask Naruto?" said Kiba as he sat down at the table with his arms crossed.

"Okay. So what happened Naruto?" asked Ino as I handed her the broken glass that cut my cheek. "Where did you get this from?"

I sat down at the table and looked at Kiba who was purposely staring away from me.

"Well I got that from the mirror in my bathroom," I said as Ino look confused.

"What? How exactly?" asked Ino. "There's blood on it. Oh my God is this your blood?"

"I haven't told you guys what's been happening in my nightmares. Have I? I said.

"No you haven't been telling us anything," said Kiba angrily. "All you've been saying that it's nothing"

"I'm sorry Kiba. I was going to tell you. It's just I didn't want to scare you," I said. "I thought that if I told you; you would be too afraid to be my friend. You too Ino"

"Naruto dude I would never stop being friends with you even if there is a crazy mirror dude following you around," said Kiba "And I'm sorry that I got mad at you for no reason"

"Me too Naruto; you're my friend. And like Kiba said even if there is a physco crazy mirror dude following you around it wouldn't stop me from being your friend," said Ino. "Now tell us how you got this glass"

"Well in my dreams I've been seeing this person. I don't know who it is. It's wearing a white gown covered in blood. And I can't see its face. Today in my bathroom I was brushing my teeth and I saw it in the mirror. It was laughing at me. And then I said something and it got angry and threw that glass at me. There was already blood on it before it was thrown at me," I said as Ino and Kiba looked terrified.

"You're saying that you saw it in the bathroom mirror?" said Kiba as I nodded. "So that's the reason you didn't tell me?"

"Yeah," I said.

"Dude I'm so sorry I got mad you," said Kiba.

"It's okay. I understand," I said.

"Kiba did you see it in the bathroom mirror?" asked Ino.

"No I didn't see anything," said Kiba.

"So that means only Naruto can see it," said Ino as she went to the computer. Man this girl can do some real good research. "Listen to this guys. Mirrors are like portals to the spirit world. But before mirrors can act like a portal spirits first must be summoned. Once summoned spirits can enter through the mirror at free will"

"What does that mean?" asked Kiba.

"It means when Naruto played the game he created a portal for Sasuke to come," said Ino "But this is the confusing part. Sasuke's not a spirit. We saw him in the park. He is alive. So the question is who is Naruto seeing in the mirror? If it's not Sasuke then who is it?"

"I have no idea," said Kiba.

"The thing said that it was me," I said as Ino and Kiba turned to look at me.

"It talked to you?" said Kiba as I nodded.

"What do you mean it said that it was you?" asked Ino.

"The thing changed into me and kept saying forcefully that it was me," I said as Ino looked confused.

"This was a dream right?" asked Ino as I nodded. "Good"

"But it's not you?" said Kiba.

"Yeah it's not me," I said.

"Guys; I was researching where the Uchiha's lived and found out where they lived. I thought maybe if we went to their mansion we could break all mirrors in there. Because it's says that if you break the mirrors the portal goes away," said Ino nervously. I could tell that she was extremely scared.

"The Uchiha mansion?" said Kiba with fear in his voice. "Dude didn't you hear about the legend. That girl who went in there never came back out again"

"I know but what else are we supposed to do," said Ino. "Anyway all we have to do is break the mirrors. Nothing wrong can happen. We break the mirrors and run out of there. And by we I mean Kiba and I"

"What do you mean just Kiba and you?" I asked.

"Naruto the thing is after you so if you went in there things could go bad. Kiba and I didn't do the game so if we went there things might not be as bad if you went in there," said Ino.

"But what if you guys get hurt?" I said.

"We won't we'll go in there in the daylight," said Ino "As if in right now"

"Right now I don't think I'm ready yet," said Kiba nervously.

"Kiba the Uchiha mansion hasn't even been that empty. There are caretakers in there working so it can't be that bad," said Ino "And besides there's still daylight"

"Guys I'm not so sure about this. I have a feeling that something might go bad," I said.

"I have that feeling to. But this might save you," said Ino as we walked out of the library. "Now the directions says that we have to go all the way to the road called Akatsuki"

"That's like one of the oldest street here," said Kiba.

We walked about thirty minutes and arrived at the Uchiha mansion. It looked so old and so haunted. I looked at Kiba and Ino they looked so scared and yet they were willing to go into their just for me. I felt so useless in this situation. But if I did go in there with them that thing might come after me and get them in the process too. So I guess it was better if I just stayed behind.

"Guys are you sure you want to do this?" I asked.

"Yes I'm sure," said Ino as I gave her a hug.

"What about you Kiba?" I asked.

"Yup I'm sure. I can't let Ino do this alone," said Kiba as I gave him a hug.

Ino grabbed a flashlight and two hammers from her backpack and went inside with Kiba. She turned around blew a kiss at me and went back inside with Kiba. I sighed. I didn't want them to go. I didn't want them to get hurt because of me. God why did I have to do the Uchiha game in the first place? In my nightmares I am always in that one bedroom with the floor mirror. That's the mirror they need to break. The rest don't really count. They need to break the floor mirror that's the main one. I can't tell them now they're already inside. I grabbed my cell phone and called Ino. But she didn't pick up. I then called Kiba but he didn't pick up either. What if they are already captured by that thing?
