I open my eyes to not see Gelus anywhere in my room. My heart started to beat faster, where would he have gone? I didn't want to lose the powers that I got with having him near. I had to keep judging criminals so that I could rid the world of all its impurities. I get out of my bed and walk over to my desk. The notebook was still there, but where was Gelus? He was supposed to guard it wasn't he?
"Mistress Misa, what are you doing up so early?" I hear a voice say scaring me.
"Where have you been Gelus? I woke up and you weren't where you usually are." I fume mad at the Shinigami. Where did he get the nerve to be in here instead of at the foot of my bed? Wait did I really just think that? Did I just say I wanted him to be watching me sleep? What was happening to me?
"I'm very sorry Mistress Misa. I'll be more careful next time." He says bowing his head. "I wanted you to wake up and be happy."
I smile at him. Wow! Was I really falling for a Shinigami? That couldn't be could it? "Thank you for your consideration Gelus, but I've got to go before I miss class. I wouldn't forgive myself if I missed another day." I say grabbing my bag and toss an apple to Gelus.
I walk into my class with a wig on to disguise myself from the normal people there. I knew many of the girls in my class were fans of Misa-Misa. Everyone here wouldn't appreciate me being run over particularly me.
I sit down in the back trying to hide myself from those who might recognize the actual me. The class gets quiet as the professor walks in the class briefcase in hand.
"Good day today class. I'm terribly sorry, but I didn't get a chance to grade your quizzes." He said looking over the classroom like he was searching for something. I shake it off. No one would recognize me in this, especially not some old guy that barely sees my face.
The class ends with another homework assignment given out. The class starts to shuffle on their way, and I go to do the same towards the back of the line. Everyone passes the professor without any trouble that is until me.
"Miss… I don't remember seeing you here in my class before." He says to me grabbing my shoulder.
Gelus stands beside me and I shake my head slightly. "I'm normally an online student, because of health reasons, but I got cleared for a while. So they are letting me come to classes." I lie and force a cough.
"Okay, well you have assignments that you have to make up." He said letting his hand slid down my arm.
I refrained from any sudden movements. But inside I wanted to run away screaming. This isn't the first time that someone has touched my arm, and it probably wasn't going to be the last. His hand instead of falling to the side went towards my hair. I try to move away, but he grabs my wrist.
"You're not going anywhere yet." He snarls taking my wig off me.
I blink. How could he know that it wasn't real? He had to have known before class even started. I stand still looking at the old man before me. He wasn't the professor, but an imposter. He must have known about this, before now. "What do you want, sir?" I ask politely trying not to let my hatred lace my words.
He smiled pulling me towards the wall. "You." He whispered in my ear as he pushed me into a dark room inside the wall. Before I could do anything he slammed the door, and I heard something moving. As if he was pushing something in front of the door. "Crap." I say pushing on a door that wouldn't budge. I couldn't get out that way.
I sigh taking deep breathes trying to calm down. I started thinking. If it's a room, then there has to be four walls, and maybe another door. I open my eyes trying to let my eyes adjust to the darkness. It didn't work well. I tentatively took a step forward, and another, my arms outstretched in front of me trying to make sure that I wasn't bumping into anything. I take a third step and feel something hard against my hand. A wall, maybe. I run my hand where it touched. It was smooth. I turn to the side and start walking down the wall. I reach it in one step. I turn the other way and in two steps I was at the opposite wall.
So I know I'm in a room. Its dimensions are three paces, by two paces. It has smooth walls and is connected to the professor's room. I walk up and down the four walls. Three of them smooth, and the fourth contained the outline of a door. So there was only one way in and one way out. That means I'm stuck here until this sick man decides to let me out. I sigh sitting down against a wall and started to sing to try to calm myself.
I am a question to the world.
Not an answer to the world.
Or a moment that's held in your arms.
And what do you think you'd ever say?
I won't listen anyway
And I'll never be what you want me to be.
And what do you think you'd understand?
I'm a boy, no I'm a man…
You can't take me and throw me away.
And how can you learn what's never shown?
Yeah, you stand here on your own.
They don't know me 'cause I'm not here.
And I wanna moment to be real,
Wanna touch things I don't feel.
Want to hold on and feel I belong.
And how can the world want me to change.
They're the ones that stay the same.
They don't know me.
'Cause I'm not here.
And you see the things they never see.
All you wanted, I could be.
Now you know me, and I'm not afraid.
And I wanna tell you who I am.
Can you help me be a man?
They can't break me.
As long as I know who I am.
And I wanna moment to be real.
Wanna touch things I don't feel
Wanna hold on and feel I belong.
And how can the world want me to change?
They're the ones that stay the same.
They can't see me.
But I'm still here.
They can't tell me who to be.
'Cause I'm not what they see.
Yeah, the world is still sleepin',
While I keep on dreamin for me.
And their words are just whispers
And lies that I'll never believe.
And I want a moment to be real.
Wanna touch things I don't feel.
Wanna hold on and feel I belong.
And how can they say I never change?
They're the ones that stay the same.
I'm the one now,
'Cause I'm still here.
I'm the one,
'Cause I'm still here
I'm still here.
I'm still here.
I'm still here.
I hear noise coming from the door. Was it the man who trapped me here? It had to be. I bite my lip and pushed myself away from the door. As the door creaks open I turn my face away from the door. I didn't want to see the face of that man again/
A/N: Okay guys. I know it's been forever since I last posted, but it's been crazy. I know I'm being mean to Misa, but that's okay right? Don't kill me please. I used I'm still here, by Goo Goo dolls. Let's not touch L's sweets.
