The windows are bright with sunlight and I can even hear a few birds chirping. It's such a nice day. But I dont think its for me.


I shift in my spot on the floor next to the couch, petting ____'s soft hair as it feathered out under her head. Gracias a Dios that she finally stopped shivering. I wonder for the millionth time if it was from blood loss. It took me and Señora Meyer nearly an hour to get the scratches on her arms clean enough to be bandaged. At least now she doesn't look as ghostly pale--


--"Vee~ Fratello, who's-a the bella?"


I nearly jump out of my skin at the sound of Feli's voice coming from behind me. "Oh. Hola, chico. I didn't hear you coming."


"Vee~ Really? I was-a like a ninja?"


He stares at me with a big smile on his face. Why is it so hard to lie to this kid? Normally, I can hear him coming ten miles away. But today has hardly been what one would consider normal.

I run to the house and stumble in through the kitchen door of the home I'm staying at. I am both out of breath and extremely confused. Exactly what did I see? I look at _____ in my arms more dearly than ever wanting to ask her--


--I gape at the long bloody cuts down her arms. And the paleness of her skin(if you have a tan, use your imagination) contrasting against her bruise colored neck.And the deep shoe print on the back of her un-splinted hand. The poor chica is even still shivering. Dios mio, what happened to you?


"Antonio?" Damn!


"Hola, Señora Meyer." I spin without meaning to, showing the poor old lady my even more pitiful burden. She reacts accordingly.


"Toni, you didnt?"


"Que?" Then I look at _______. "No!!"


Señora Meyer crosses her arms with the meanest look I've ever seen.


"No, I'm being serious, Señora! She gets bullied at school a lot and I saw her get beat up in a parking lot not too far from here and I don't know where she lives and please Señora , can you please let her stay, por favor?" I had no choice, ok? She made me go on defense.


Señora continues to death glare for a moment before changing her face to show severe concern. "I will go grab the first aide kit."

The car was dark. the windows let in the glow of the moon. I'm sitting in the backseat, not really sure who is driving but not really caring because I had a bigger problem at the moment.

The thing outside the window was chasing me. And I'm not sure how, but it feels like it is getting closer every second. I tell whoever is driving to hurry it the hell up..or at least, I think I do...

...Hell, I don't know. It all just seems so wrong right now. I have to get away from this feeling of fear.

The car comes to a spine wrenching halt as a figure on a horse that looks like its made of black ink jumps into the middle of the road. "Don't stop! Keep going!!" I yell at the driver, ever wary of the ink horse with it's evil looking rider made of the same stuff. Why does it look as if they were painted onto a flag thats waving in the wind??

When the driver doesnt respond to me, I start to feel a heavy presence behind me. "Just run him ov----"

I gasp as a wave of pain hits me and I feel that the thing behind me moves to sit beside me, taking a black shadow from my body with him with a horrible ripping motion. The physical pain didnt last, but the mental pain was just starting. I try to blink the headache out of my eyes as I watch the shadow thief glare at me with smiling red eyes. I look out the window as a form of distraction, looking to the moon and bathing in its comforting light. Half-heartedly,I reach for it--

--I notice that my arm still casts a shadow. If it wasnt my shadow that thing stole...then what did he take? My last thoughts try to calculate the problem as the ink horse floats away and the shadow thing smirks at me...

--I open my eyes faster than I wanted to and have to take a second to adjust to the sudden brightness.I have a massive headache,but my new found awareness hastened the answer to my question. But not before a pair of green eyes and a giant smile assaults me with a flying tackle hug.

"Chica! I'm so glad you're alright!" His arms are vice like but also careful, as I are currently not gasping for breath.

"Toni!" I smile back tiredly and wait patiently for him to let go, which he does. He reminds me of a sterotypical kid at christmas time. I notice things while I try to get my bearings. This isn't where i remember i was last time I was awake...so where..? "Where are we?" I ask through my migrane.

"Oh. You're at my place...or at least it's mine for the moment." He looks away like hes ashamed of something before regaining his slightly weak but always signature smile.

"Oh." I take a moment to study your surroundings. The room is small-ish but well managed, with a big window to let in the sunlight. I are currently laying on the couch under a warm and fluffy quilt. I notice my arms have been bandaged and I cant help but wonder..."How long have I been here?"

"Vee~two days-a, bella."

Both Toni and I start at the unannounced arrival of a familiar looking little boy with redish hair and a cute curl on the left side of his head. "Vee~I really am-a like a ninja!Ciao, bella! I'm-a Feliciano, but-a you can call-a me Feli." he joins in the group hug before toni can say anything. "Whats-a your name-a, bella?"

"Feli, I already told you,"no te acuerdas?" Toni scolds the boy before sighing. "I suppose I should introduce you properly. Feliciano, meet my friend, ________."

The two of us smile and hug again. I can't get over how much he looks like the little grouch....wait where is he, anywho?
