One Fateful Day

Written: April 12, 2013

Shizuo was enjoying another chase. The adrenaline was pumping through his veins, and his strength was truly frightening on that particular day. He threw a vending machine and watched it successfully connect. He was flabbergasted. Izaya always dodged. He always threw with his entire strength because he knew the flea would always avoid the flying objects. That was the way the game was always played. It couldn't change. Not now. Izaya couldn't be on the ground. Blood couldn't start pooling around his head. He has to get up, shake it off. Start running again like nothing happened, like he was never hit.

This just wasn't possible. It must be a dream. 'Yeah. That's it. I just need to wake up. He's fine.' Shizuo was reassured and walked away, knowing that he was getting closer to waking himself up because he recognized that it was a dream. He walked back to his apartment and opened the door, everything felt so real, but maybe it was one of those lucid dreams. He sat down on the bed and tried to jerk himself awake. Finding that he couldn't, he decided to wait out the strange vision and flipped on the T.V.

The news came on, and it talked about an accident that had just occurred. He watched as footage started to stream. It showed the flea lying on a gurney with a sheet on him. Horror filled Shizuo. This was real. He had just killed someone. The one person he had never been without. The person he needed. The person who knew him the best and who angered him the most. The one who completed him.

Please Review... Any comments are much appreciated. Should I continue? Have a twist in there? I have an idea for another chapter, but I need to know if that would interest anyone.
