~Savior.~

After the horrible event yesterday, I couldn't stand to be there.

That horrid place, full of horrid people.

I walked home and attempted to sleep.
I had little luck, because the question kept hanging over my head...

"Who would save me?"

This question still bothered me, when I woke next morning.

I stared out my window, wondering if I should even bother trying to go to school...

::Savior..::

Today, I was seeing this school in a whole new light.

The guys from class called me over.

"Oi! Aioro! Before class starts today, wanna go help the girls?"

"...Help the Girls? Sure, with what?"
"Oh don't worry you'll see when we get there."

They led me around a part of the school which looked unfamiliar,
but then suddenly I saw something I recognized.

"...The Willow Tree?"
"Yeah, ...that Bitches Tree."

There were a large number of people gathered around it.
What were they here for? I thought no one else would come here.

We walked up to the back of the crowd, and watched the scene unfold.

At first, no one said anything.
Then a girl started crying.

"I can't stand her...why won't she DIE already?" She started screaming.
She threw a Glass bottle at the tree, and it shattered.

Another girl walked up next to her.

"I hate her so much, that it hurts!" She kicked the tree.

More and more girls walked forward, spitting hateful, angry words.
A girl with Dark green hair, which I felt I had seen before, made her way through the girls and walked up to the tree.

She took out a knife.

"What is she-?"

She slashed the words "Die." Right across the tree.
The girls all stopped and looked, admiring what she had done.

The guys then came and violently started kicking the tree.

I...didnt want any part in this.

But what was strange was,...why wasn't she here yet?
She should've been here...

I felt a strange sensation. A mix of fear, Emptyness and something else I couldn't quite explain.

Right when I had gotten that feeling, It was quickly wiped away.
The crowd had all turned to stare at something.

It Stood, at the top of the Hill.

::Savior.::

Their ugly faces looked at me. Out of shock, Disgust, and some,
out of fear.

I didn't care. I returned the look back, fearless.

"What is this...?" I laughed.
"So once the mouse assumes the cat is dead, he hunts without fear of becoming prey...?"

I laughed again.
Very funny.

I straightened my face.
"All of you, get out. Get away from here. This is the one place you dirty little rodents don't belong."

"Get OUTTTTTTT!" I screamed.

Some flinched and ran off.
The others stayed.

"Did the rest of you not hear me clearly?" I glared.

A boy came forward.
"We heard. But theres more of us than there is you."

"What do you think you can do?"

Not in the mood. I stormed up right to his face.

"I think you should be less worried about what you think you can do and what I CAN do."

"You won't do anyth-"
I snatched him by his hair.

"Won't do WHAT?" I snarled.
He squirmed and try'd to escape my grip.

I pulled tighter, and he yelled in pain.
"If you want your hair still attached to your skull, Take you and the rest- and leave. Right now."

I Tossed him backward into the crowd. He looked around,
then ran off holding his head.

They all turned pale and chased after him.

When I was about to relax right under the tree,
I noticed 2 people still looming around.

...Irritating.

Directly infront of the tree stood Midori.
She was staring at something on the tree intently.

I started walking towards her, and she looked up.
She didn't seem to question why I was still alive, but she just smiled and walked off.

I was very suspicous. Midori took every chance there was to fuck with me.

She would never just walk off that simply.
I catiously approached where she was.

In big letters etched across the tree trunk...
"Die."

She didn't know how I wish I could.

I sat down and sighed.
The other person, who for a moment was forgotten,
also came and sat down.

I was too tired to yell at him again. I stayed silent.

"I thought...you weren't coming."

...No answer.

"And I also, thought, no one besides you,...well or me, came here."

...Well I guess you thought wrong.

I placed my hand down to rest, then quickly brought it back up.
Something sharp.

"Ow..." I looked at my hand.
...Red.

My head spun a bit.

"Oh man", my hand was suddenly stolen from me.
"Are you alright?" he examined my hand.

My eye's opened wide.
"...Wait...don't tell me it was you..." I said.

We both looked into eachothers eye's.
