Reality Is Unreal
Chapter 1: Haunted
A pair of eyes stared at the shiny object which was being held by a pair of cold hands. An icy wind blew a long hair away from an already cold face and the silent song from the Full Moon filled the deaf ears of the frozen girl.
Suddenly the girl moved the object and the moonlight revealed a long and sharped dagger. It was a very beautiful dagger, with gems incrusted in the hilt.
So beautiful, yet so deadly.
Slowly, the girl leaned the sharped blade to her right wrist and stared at it, her mind lost in thoughts about how it would be the sensation of feeling such an object sliding slowly down her wrist, leaving behind a red trail which would mark her decision forever....a decision she had come to hold since she was little.
With a soft lick of her lips, the girl leaned the blade against her wrist, feeling sad for not being able to see the real color of the liquid that kept running inside her, but also feeling happy for the darkness was perfect to hide and keep for all eternity her last breath.
Without flinching, the girl stared at the blade which had now started to cut her white skin. It didn't hurt...what was running now on her veins wasn't pain, it was relief.
Relief that she was now reaching what she wished for so long.
When the dagger made a small but deep cut, a warm liquid started to drip on the dirty floor, at the same time the girl started making the same cut on her left wrist.
When she was done, the girl put the dagger on the floor and stared at her bleeding wrists: she was going to be free.
Free from the hell she was living.
Slowly, her vision became blurry and suddenly everything went black.

Kai Hiwatari was twisting and turning on his bed, the sheet now wrapped around his legs. His breath was irregular and sweat was running down his face, as silence words tried to escape from his lips.
He was seeing it...he was feeling it....and for the first time in years, Kai Hiwatari felt scared of the emotions that were flooding his mind and dreams.
Even though he was still trapped in his dream, Kai couldn't help but feel cold wrapping his body, as a sudden and icy breeze in the middle of the Fall. He was also feeling alone, abandoned yet, he was also feeling happy.
Then, he saw it. In the middle of the darkness, dull eyes looking back at him, but before Kai could move or say a word, he felt something dripping on the floor and when he looked at his feet he saw something scary: a pool of blood.
"Kai..." a voice whispered. It was cold yet gentle, so strong yet weak
With a start, Kai sat on his bed, his breath still coming irregular and sweat still running down his forehead.
With a long, deep breath, Kai tried to clean the sweat with his hand, while his mind continued to dwell in the strange dream he had just had:
"I wonder what was that all about." Kai muttered, as he took the sheet off his legs, so he could get up.
Without looking at his alarm-clock, Kai walked towards the window of his room and stared at the Full Moon.
Then, for an unknown reason, Kai shivered. He really didn't knew why he was so jumpy or why he was feeling so...empty, but Kai had the feeling it had to do with the strange dream. The voice was so strange yet so familiar.
It seemed as if a long time had passed since the last time he had heard that voice, but Kai was almost positive he knew it from somewhere.
But when? Where? Who?
Suddenly and before Kai could move a muscle, someone opened the door of his room:
"Hey Kai, are you ok?"
"Hmph, what do you want?" Kai asked as he looked over his shoulder
Close to the door, was a very sleepy but worried Ray, who was only dressed on a pair of boxers, while his hair was still on his usual ponytail
"I though something was happening to you." Ray explained "Are you sure you're ok?"
"Never said otherwise." Kai replied back, his eyes on the Full Moon again
Ray chuckled, when he understood Kai wouldn't say anything else:
"Well, goodnight then." he said "And don't forget, Mr Dickinson wants us to be up early, so he can tell us about school."
"Hmph." was Kai's reply
Taking that as an 'ok', Ray slowly closed the door and walked to his room.
When he was all alone, Kai looked back to his room and crossed his arms: he had been swallowed by the darkness and silence, yet he felt like he had been swallowed long before he had woke up.

Beep....beep....beep...
Slowly a pale girl opened her eyes, only to face white and wires all over her. Green curtains stopped the the girl from staring at whatever that was surrounding her, but a soft voice in her mind was already telling her where she was.
Then, the girl looked at her wrists, which had been carefully bandaged and, in range, she clenched her hands into strong fists.
Everything was wrong....too damn wrong...
Slowly, the girl took the wires of her, slipped her shaken legs off the maitresse and her bare feet meet the cold floor. It was very cold, yet not a sound was heard. Then, an icy hand pushed one of the curtains slowly, so the eyes could see if someone was there.
No one.
Perfect.
Without a single thought, the girl commanded her legs to carry her still weak body towards an hall which, thankfully, was also desert.
Taking the chance, the girl started walking towards the exit. She knew she was far from it and that, reaching her way out would be a challenge, but she needed to get out.
She needed to run away, or she would be as good as dead.
The girl was running as fast as she could, her bare feet hitting the floor without making a sound, but she knew she would be noticed soon. She knew it, since she had now started running through halls full of sick people, who she kept trying to avoid, but people who she knew that would start to ask who she was and why was she running, in the middle of the hospital.
However, she couldn't think about it at the moment.
She needed to get out, never to be found again.
She needed to get out, so she could try and feel the freedom she had felt on the previous night.
"Hey you!" a voice yelled and the girl opened her eyes in surprise, when she saw a man dressed in a white gown pointing to her "You shouldn't be up, let alone running in the halls!"
'Shit.' the girl cursed, as she started to doubt if she would ever have any luck in her life
Without thinking twice, the girl started running down the stairs, conscient that someone was already after her.
She needed to get out of there fast, but it seemed as if the exist was getting away from her reach, and not closer
"Stop that girl!" she heard the same man yelled, at the same time she finally managed to run inside the main hall.
People were everywhere, some watching her fleed towards the exit doors, others asking themselves if they should do anything to stop her.
Finally the front doors were already in front of the girl, all she needed was a push, but before she could beg for her body to move faster, a group of securities appeared in front of her.
Suddenly an idea appeared on her mind and the girl could only hope it would work.
As she bite her lip, the girl closed her fists hard and, when she was about to bump into the securities, she forced her feet to jump and, with a smirk on her face, she managed to flip over the group. Then, as she managed to fall on her feet, the girl started running towards the exit.
The bad thing, was that her vision was getting blurry and her whole body was starting to get numb.
'No, please, I need to get out.' the girl thought, as she managed to run through the exit doors, towards the road.
Then, without thinking, the girl turned left and started looking for a place where she could hide, since she knew everyone was after her.
Then she saw it...a green door and it was opened.
Without thinking twice, the girl run inside and leaned against a white wall, before falling into darkness.

"Hey Tyson!" Chief yelled, as he kept knocking on the door "Wake up! We need to go meet Mr Dickinson and we're already late!"
"I would say for you to save your breath Kenny, if we weren't really late." Max said, as he appeared next to his friend "But you know how Tyson is."
"But we're already late!" Chief exclaimed, as he turned to his friend "We have half an hour to go meet Mr Dickinson and Tyson is still sleeping!"
"Why don't you guys enter in the room and use some drastic measures to wake him up?" Ray asked, as he appeared on the other side, carrying a bag "Look, I need to put the garbage outside and I'll stay there waiting for you, ok?"
"Where's Kai?" Max asked and Ray shruged:
"I dunno, I think he was the first one to wake up." he said "Meet you outside in 10."
"10?!" Chief repeated, surprised "How do you expect me to wake Tyson in 10 minutes?"
"Ask Dizzi, maybe she has the answer." Ray replied, as he started walking away
"Oh, Tyson!" Chief exclaimed, as he knocked on the door again
"C'mon Chief, lets try to open the door and then we'll see what to do to wake him up." Max said, as he put a hand over his friend's shoulder
Chief sighed and nodded.
While the two Bladebreakers tried to find a way to wake Tyson up in 10 minutes, Ray was climbing down the stairs.
He couldn't believe Mr Dickinson had rent a house for the Bladebreakers, and decided to left them at easy. Ray chuckled, well he still couldn't believe he was actually living with the rest of Bladebreakers neither, but there he was. In a house next to Tokio's hospital, right in the middle of the capital.
It was incredible.
"What's incredible is the fact Tyson will never grow up." Ray muttered, as he started walking towards the front door "That guy doesn't exist."
Ray was so lost in his own thoughts that he didn't noticed the front door was opened and that there was something on the floor.
"Now, where are the keys?" the chinese boy asked as he started looking on the table next to the door for the object, the garbage already beside the open door
Nevertheless, it was then that Ray noticed the door and, with an eyebrow raised, he approached it:
"How on earth..."
Ray trailled off when his eyes felt on a hand that could be seen, behind the door.
Slowly, Ray closed the door, his eyes never leaving the pale hand and, when he finally managed to see to whom the hand belonged to, Ray gasped and knelt on the floor:
"Hey, are you ok?" he asked, as he put an arm behind a girl's neck and pulled her up "Hey, wake up!"
But the girl didn't moved.
As he looked closely at her, Ray saw she had dark reddish-orange hair, which was completely dishevelled, small cuts on her face along with some dirty, her grey jeans were ripped close to both knees, just like it was filled with dirt and the girl's white shirt was stained in dry blood.
"Guys!" Ray yelled, as he put his free arm behind the girl's knees and picked her up in bridal-style "Guys, come here quickly!"
Slowly and still without taking his eyes off the girl in his arms, Ray entered in the living-room and layed the girl on the white couch, not carrying if it would get dirty.
Then, when he stepped back, something caught Ray's attention: the bandages around the girl wrists.
"What is it Ray, we still need to wake Ty..." Chief trailled off, as he entered in the living-room and saw the girl "Who is she?"
"I dunno." Ray said, as he shruged "I saw the door opened and then I saw her."
"What happened to her?" Max asked, as he walked to the girl side "Is she all right?"
"How do you want me to know that?" Ray asked "I think she's unconscious."
"Well, what I think is that we should take her to the hospital." Chief started "Have you seen her condition? She must be seen by a doctor immediatly."
"Hmph, dare to tell me why are you taking so long to wake that sloth?" a voice asked and the three Bladebreakers looked to the door to see Kai:
"Hum Kai, I think we have a problem here." Max started, before waving towards the couch
Without saying a word, Kai walked towards the couch and saw the girl. His face continued without a single emotion, even when Kai squat and stared to the girl's face:
"Hmph, take her to the hospital." he said "We don't need any girl to make us late."
"But Kai..." Chief trailled off, when Kai got up and looked at him
knock knock
"I'll get it." Max said, before walking away
"I think she was at the hospital." Ray said, as he pointed to the bandages around the girl's wrists
"Then why is she here?" Chief asked "Don't tell me she run away."
Ray shruged
"Have you seen a girl running in this street?" a voice asked, from the hall "She's probably 18, has dark reddish-orange hair and both her wrists are bandaged."
"Hum..." was Max's reply
"Are you thinking what I'm thinking?" Ray asked and Chief nodded:
"She's the girl." he said
"Then, lets take her to them." Ray said, as he picked the girl up in bridal-style
As Ray walked towards the door of the living-room, the girl's right arm felt and Kai opened his eyes wide, as his eyes caught something:
"No, wait." he said, before he could stop himself
"What? What is it?" Ray asked, close to the door
"Stay here." was Kai's only reply before walking through the door
"I wonder what was that all about." Chief muttered
"So, have you seen her or not?" someone asked as Kai approached the front door, only to see a man dressed in a white gown talking with Max
"No." Kai said suddenly, making Max look over his shoulder in surprise "We have not seen a girl with that discription."
"Thanks." the man said
"What did she do?" Kai asked, as the man was about to walk away
"Someone found her on a alley, both her wrists cut." the man explained "We think it was a suicide which, thankfully, failed."
"Hmph, thanks." Kai said, before walking inside the house again
After saying 'thanks', Max closed the door and looked confusely at Kai:
"What was that all about?" the blond haired boy asked, as Kai entered inside the living-room
"Dare to explain me what's going on?" Ray asked, as he saw the two boys approaching them
Without a word Kai walked to the couch, where Ray had layed the girl again, and grabbed her right arm. Then, still in silence, Kai raised the sleeve of the shirt only to show the tatoo of the Full Moon, which was being wrapped by a black snake.
"It can't be..." Kai whispered
"Hey Kai, what's wrong?" Ray asked
"Yeah, fill us in please." Max said
"This girl..." Kai started as he looked to his friend "To put this in a simple way, this girl is a cavy."
"A cavy?!" the other three boys repeated, surprised and shocked
"A cavy for what? For who?" Chief asked "And how do you know that?"
"She's a cavy," Kai started, his eyes now over the unconscious girl "for Boris."
"What?!"
"AHHH, I'M LATE!" a voice exclaimed from the first floor
Quick steps could be heard coming down the stairs, until someone felt over on the floor.
Then, a very sleepy Tyson appeared, dressing his clothes on the wrong side of the cloth:
"Hey guys..." he started, before looking at the girl on the couch "Hum, what did I missed?"
