getting busy living or get busy writing

hi, well yesterday i posted about not being able to get to school and a few of you suggested that i carpool with someone else. well unfortunatly i live like 15 miles from my school so walking is not an option and carpooling is also a no go as not one person who goes to my school live near me, so i'll just have to wait till our car gets fixed. it shouldn't be too long of a wait as my mom's money should be in the bank tomorrow so i should be at school by wednesday. again i am very sorry to my friend danny that he is all by himself. hmmm it's like almost five o' clock in the morning here and i was planning on updating after midnight but i got really inspired to write a new chapter of my story "my name is rory" and i was writing from like 1:00 in the morning until four in the morning. i really like were the story is going so i'm happy about that. wow this was a super short post for the day i think i'll be going to bed in a few minutes so goodbye! ~redmoonchick~

just what i need another obession/my site is frustrating!!!!!!!!!!!

hi, i had a pretty boring weekend which is a good thing compared to last weekend's crazyness. seriously though the most exciting thing i did this weekend was help make no bake cookies. this boring weekend can be blamed on the fact that my mom's vechical has broken down again. this will be like the fifth time in a few months. the problem this time has something to do with our belt but i'm not sure cause i'm not really a car person. because our car is broken i can't go to school (i only went one day lastweek) and i feel really bad because my poor friend danny (or em0taku on here) is all by himself at school. danny if your reading this i'm sorry and i'll try to get to school soon! another thing that has happened to me this weekend is that i've discovered a new obession i have: cosplaying or to be more specific buying cosplay stuff. i practicly stalked my local hot topic store because i wanted a urahara hat (i do believe i posted about that before). well now it's turned into full blown obession i went through this website yesterday and saw all this stuff and was like: "oh i want this and that and that" (i especially liked the fruits basket kyo bracelet but it was sold out T-T) the other part of my subject that i must get to is my problem with my site. i want a background on my site and i don't understand why the stupid site won't show it! it worked when i first started my site but now no wallpaper will show up at all. if i do by chance get a wallpaper to show up it usually only lasts a day or an hour. i've tried everything i can think of and i know i'm doing it right. the fixed html code worked but only for my guestbook. does anyone have any suggestions? has this ever happened to anyone? or is my site just defected? if anyone does happen to know anything please please PM me or leave it in a comment. oh and one more thing before i go. i didn't get to watch trinity blood last night. did anyone watch it? and if so could you PM me and tell me what happened to ion! stupid last week cliffhanger! ~redmoonchick~

pain in the neck, bounce in my step, and an ache in my heart

hi, have any of you guys ever noticed the little ad's at the top of the page when loading up your own site or anyone eles on the myo? i have just begun to take note of them and i think what shows up there is based on what you put on your site but i'm probably wrong. i don't really know why i'm mentioning this i just thought it was funny i guess that i kept getting the ad: "are you hot or not?" and i'm like wtf? is my own site making fun of me? XD (yeah i'm a weirdo) well today also happened to be my first day back to school since our new semester started. which means tons of new kids and uncomfortableness. do any of you remember when i talked about my friend danielle that was going to transfer to a new school but then decided that she wasn't? well bad news she did end up transferring because her mom didn't want her to go her T-T now i'm all alone for half my classes! like i mentioned before i have a yoga class now but i'm not sure i wanna stick with it because i'm awfully self concious and i don't know/don't like many people in that class. today i forgot my yoga clothes so i didn't have to do yoga i just watched instead and i came to realize that boys in my school are pervs!!! they peek in the yoga class just to watch the girls strech and bend over! oh well. i also came to learn today that my teacher is letting people read manga that she bought for her second hour class and when i inquired about joining that class i was informed that it was an all boys class but she did say she needed someone to explain manga to her and the class because the whole reading backwards thing confuses her. the manga she bought was "the demon ororon" have any of you read it? i'm not sure if i liked it or not cause i only read a few pages of it during lunch. today is thursday and that means chapter two of my fic! (if you are new and want to catch up then just go through my archives to last thursday) and also this chapter isn't long so i would appreciate if you read it! *puppy dog eyes* ************************************************** "my friend rory" chapter two: seven o' clock on a friday morning i was awakened in the morning by my younger brother who was already fully dressed poking my forehead until i woke up. "why are you still sleeping?" he asked "usually your up before i am!" he laughed and strode out of my room. i wanted to anwser my brother but to be honest i hadn't know why i didn't wake up. i picked up my alarm clock and realized that in the events of last night i had stupidly forgotten to set it. as i stood and streched i thought about last night and how in the morning light it did seem as if i had overreacted; my friends did say that i was something of a worrier. thinking about my friends led me to remember the email i had sent ellie last night. i logged onto my computer as i waited for it to load up i dressed quickly hoping that ellie had checked her email sometime during the morning and that she had the sense to write me back. as soon as the computer loaded i eagerly checked my mail and grinned as i saw a reply to the email i had sent: "hey, yeah i talked to rory last night. i agree he was acting alittle weird but since when is he normal? i told rory that i wouldn't go to school today but my mom is making me so i'll see you there? -ellie" i wasn't sure if i was relived that ellie agreed with me about rory's behavior or if it made me worry more. i stuck my hair into a ponytail checking the clock it was about seven twenty five "were gonna be late" i sighed grabbed my bag and headed downstairs. my brother and i climbed into my father's car "your going to be a few minutes late" he said as he put out the cigarette he had been smoking "it's fine nothing ever happens during first hour anyway's" i told him. as we drove i stared out the window at the seemingly perfect day it was warm and sunny and it looked like it was the perfect start to a good weekend. "hey sis?" i heard my brother say. i turned to look at him "hmmm?" i mumbled back "i got a text from rory that says not to go to school today, what's that about?" he asked me "oh that's nothing, don't worry about it" i told him. he shrugged and went back to messing with his cell phone. we arrived at school at seven fourty six only a minute late. we waved goodbye to my dad and headed inside for a normal day of school. once we were inside the school my brother and i went our seperate ways but we always met up again for breakfast. i climbed the stairs that lead to my first hour; as i climbed i passed a few classmates i greeted them and continued on my way. the upstairs hallway was the same as usual people were walking around and standing by the large window at the end of the hall. i entered my first hour class curious to see if rory had shown up or not. my curiosity was satisfied when i saw that rory was infact not at school today but ellie was. i sat at my normal table that i shared with rory and ellie. as i stared at rory's empty chair i felt bad, what if rory really had wanted us to skip with him? now he'd be all alone. "did you get my email?" ellie asked i nodded "yeah" i said. "were you surprised that he's not here today?" i asked her "kinda but not really i mean he basiclly told us he was skipping" she said "yeah i guess he'll be watching that movie alone" i laughed a bit to make myself feel better; for some reason i had gotten very depressed in the last few minutes. "what do you mean movie?" ellie asked "you know the movie rory told us to skip school for" i stated "rory didn't tell me anything about a movie" ellie said "what?" i asked confused "then what did he tell you?" "well he said that we could go shopping or whatever, he never really stated anything specific" ellie told me. now i was confused why would rory tell us two different things? had he changed his mind betweem the time he talked to me and the time he talked to ellie? i shrugged it off as a boy who was indecisive and i no longer worried about rory i figured he was at home sleeping or something mundane like that. well that's all folks!

much ado about manga

well since nothing really happened today i think i'll post what manga's i'm currently reading and of course i'll do my manga review for the day of course ^-^ so the following list is of the manga i'm currently enjoying also i'm going to put which mangas i have done a review for so if any of these mangas strike your fancy then you can read a review for it: angel sanctuary- vol.1 annefreaks-vol.1 beautypop- vol.1-2 (review) black cat- vol.1-5 (review) claymore- vol.1-5 (review) cromartie high school- vol.1 death note- vol.1-8 (review) descendents of darkness- vol.1-11 D.N.Angel- vol.1-11 dramacon- vol.1-2 fruits basket- vol.1-15 fullmetal alchemist- vol.1-10 genshiken- vol.1 gravitation- vol.1-9 judas- vol.1 (review) lament of the lamb- vol.1-7 legal drug- vol.1-3 nosatsu junkie- vol.1(review) roadsong- vol.1 trinity blood- vol.1 xxxholic- vol.1-2 yoki koto kiku well that's my list though i doubt anyone cares. i just felt like making it. i have a question for you guys though "how do you feel about american made manga? do you consider it real manga? would you read it?" my answers to this is that i do like american made manga ecspecially dramacon. point 1 i feel that it is still manga even if it wasn't made in japan or by a japanese manga-ka. i see it this way if you say that it's not real manga because it's made in america then that can apply to many things. like pizza for example it originated in italy so if its made here in america by americans are you gonna say that its not real pizza just because its made here? point number 2 would be that most american otakus (even some here) want to make their own mangas some day but if you don't consider american made manga real manga then what are you making? and who are you planning to sell it too for that matter. i don't think we should get so caught up about where our manga is made we should just celebrate the fact that it is made! the only reason i'm ranting about this is because i'd really hate for great american made manga (like dramacon) to be avoided because it's made in america! anyone with me? ok manga review time REDMOONCHICK'S MANGA REVIEW EDITION #7 the manga i decided to review today is "angel sanctuary" and i'm sorry to fans of angel sanctuary but i didn't care for it at all. the story is about a brother and sister named setsuna and sara. now these two aren't ordinary siblings mostly because setsuna is in love with his sister and the two share a kiss later in the first volume. setsuna also happens to be the reincarnation of a powerful angel. from the very beginning this manga starts off confusing; maybe its just me but i don't think that's the case. the entire manga is hard to understand and most time the art is slightly jumbled together. this manga is somewhat like the manga "descendents of darkness" but more like a more boring straighter version of that manga. the story was hard to follow and not that engaging as i decided not to pick up volume 2. the characters aren't that cool either setsuna being the only interesting one. i disliked this manga so much that looking back i can barely recall anything from the manga. in the end i give "angel sanctuary" a 2 redmoons out of 10. (note: anyone who has read volume 2 and beyond of "angel sanctuary" tell me does the story get better?) well that's all for today i'm sorry to any fans of the manga i reviewed i hope you guys don't hate me now. i'm only stating my opinion after all. ~redmoonchick~

i was strolling through the past one day

hey, well i had such a long post yesterday and i was ranting as well so i forgot to mention something. some of you may remember when i posted about my brother breaking into someones house; well we found out this weekend that the woman is pressing charges against my brother and his accomplish who happens to the G guy from yesterdays post. not much else has happened lately; i had been thinking about when i first started my myo and it lead me to a few questions for you guys 1. how did you find myotaku? the answer for me is that when i was in my first high school my friend had a site and urged me to join i did and fell in love ever since. i also went through my gb and was surprised to find that there is nobody still on myo that was here when i first started; except for maybe elvesatemyramen who i was surprised to learn didn't sign my gb when i was sure that she had. oh well am i still making sense? a few days ago i talked about when i fell in love with someone from myo. well a few of you guys wanted to know what happened to the guy; nothing exciting or dramafied really it was just that the two of us grew apart and i didn't feel that same love for him that i once had. it's sad really i don't even talk to him anymore besides for the occasional text message. also i think i asked this question before but not to many people answered so i'll ask again. what's your guys favorite manga? mine would be gah! too many to choose from but i'm fond of furuba and fma and death note i better stop because i could go on forever. hmmmm i also wanna thank hylian88 for talking to me all day. on a serious note hylian88 told me something just terrible that happened to him so everyone be extra loving to him ok? well i'm gonna wrap this puppy up cause i fear i'm rambling but one more thing shikamaru from naruto is my new naruto boyfriend! shikamaru: "man being loved is a pain" redmoonchick: "shut up before i make you sit in the closet with naruto" *naruto pops head out of the closet* naruto: "believe it!" shikamaru: "alright i'll be good" redmoonchick: "ha ha no one ever picks the closet" shikamaru: "this was a weird post" naruto: "believe it!" ~redmoonchick~

men are from mars women leave them there

hi, boys are stupid. now, now all you male readers put your pitchforks and torches down and let me finish. not all boys are stupid just the ones i hang out with. it all started on friday when i went to spend the weekend with my bestfriend; well my bestfriend's house happens to be located very close to where my brother spends his weekends. my friend and i were having a great time when my brother and his friends show up. one of my brothers friends happens to be my bestest guy friend (who i secretly have romantic feelings for) my best guy friend (who we shall call G) well i'm not the only one who has a crush on him. my bestfriend happens to think he's hot as well as my bestfriends little sister; now G does have a girlfriend and that didn't use to bug me but now it does and also i get jealous when he's around other girls. it's too weird i've know G since he was 12 and i was 14 and he's been like a little brother to me but now i'm 18 and he's 15 and i'm all like "he is hot!" then i'm like "wtf?". during the time when G was over i was making my bestfriends little sister jealous because i kept giving G hugs and standing next to him. later my brother, G, me, my bestfriend and her sister, and my brother's bestfriend all walked up to the store. during the walk i was talking to G and telling him how i missed seeing him and how we should hang out more when my brothers bestfriend overheard me and started making fun of us; naturally pissing me off because i do have a crush on him but i don't really want to because i know it would ruin our friendship if he were to find out and i really don't want that to happen. so today i was leaving my bestfriends house to go home and my brother, G, and my bro's bestfriend alex came to get me to walk with me to alex's house. during this second walk once again alex was making fun of me and G saying how i liked him and i wanted to have kids with him despite how much i protested. alex's mom was giving us a ride home and alex and G wanted to come so we all piled into alex's mom's truck. it was my bro and i in the back and alex and G in the front; now there wasn't alot of room in the back of the truck and my brother is a tall guy plus he was crushing my legs so i started begging for my them to let my bro sit in the front. G told me to come sit in the front with alex but i was mad at alex so i said no then my brother suggested that G come sit in the back with me. well G said no and i asked him if it was because of the way that alex was making fun of us earlier and he said "yeah kinda" well that really bummed me out and the whole situation drove me to tears (though none of the boys knew i was crying) but they could tell i was upset. alex asked me if i was upset and i said that i was because of what G had said; then G insisted that he was just playing because sometimes he does say stuff in a serious tone when he's really playing. so in the end he did end up sitting in the backseat with me. so what i'm really saying is boys just don't get it they don't understand that girl's are not one of the guys (though some girls are) and that they can't say mean things to girls that hurt there feelings just like you can't tell a girl she looks fat. so in the end some boys are stupid. i know this post is a long one but i only have a little more to say. i mentioned earlier that i spent the weekend with my bestfriend; well that didn't turn out too well. first off my bestfriends mother is insane! truly she is she has multipule personalities or something. then theres my bestfriends little sister (whose not really her sister) she awfully annoying. then her mom hogs the TV all the time but the worst came on friday and saturday night. to put it bluntly my bestfriend is a whore! she's only 15 but she has sex with guys as old as 30! yesterday night at around midnight she was talking on the phone to this guy who is 27 his name is black (yes like the color) well she's talking to him infront of me and was saying how she wants to have sex with him; well he asks if he can come over and she said yes! which really pissed me off because i was saying no. well she snuck him through the window and we were all talking and he's actually a pretty cool guy but he doesn't know how old my friend is for real because she told him that she was 18. well after a while she goes to sit on his lap and there kissing and stuff and it's super akward because i'm in the room just sitting there listening to them and the guy keeps looking at me and it was creepy! after awhile longer black wants to go even further and i'm like "hell no!" and my friend told him that she can't do that in front of me but my friend told the guy that i liked a guy named G so he suggests that i call G and have sex with him while there having sex! that was when i got mad and told my friend to make him leave (he ended up leaving because my friend's mom woke up) my friend has a lock on her door and everytime she heard something she'd make black go hide in the closet. so last night while i was watching adult swim she snuck him in again and i didn't know about it so at like 1:00 in the morning i tried to get in her room and the door was locked our conversation went like this: me: knocking her: "who is it?" me: "cassandra duh!" her: lets me in me: "why is the door locked?" sees black in the closet "omg!" (he surprised me) well black didn't stay as long because he was tired so he left but not before he tried to get us all to go to sleep together. needless to say i won't be staying with my friend again anytime soon. well that was a super long post. much thanks to anyone who stuck around and read it all! *big hugs and a cookie* ~redmoonchick~

theres a panic at the disco!

hi people, if anyone gets my subject then you get a dollar! (note dollars will be sent during the 13th month) for anyone who doesn't get my subject it's based on the band panic! @ the disco. which i love! i've been listening to their cd for the past week. nothing much else has been going on i got some positive feedback for my story that i posted the first chapter of yesterday (incase you wanna read it) so i've decided to keep posting it there's only going to be about seven chapter and each chapter isn't horribly long so i hope people stick around and see it through. i kept meaning to post about this but i kept forgetting i wanted to ask: "do you guys have an anime character that you hate?" i do. for me it's envy from fma because he killed my favorite character. my friend danielle has decided to move in with her dad and not switch schools hooray! i'm so happy because really i wouldv'e been so bummed if she left. tomorrow i have my last three exams to do for the semester then monday our new semester starts so it's a clean slate. yesterday i posted about my love life or lack thereof and i got quite a few comments saying not to worry about it well thank you but i still can't help worrying about it because all my friends are younger then me and in relationships so it makes me feel like something is wrong with me even though i know nothing is. i guess i'm just weird like that. also i wanted to ask your guys opinion on internet dating or more specificlly what if you find love on myo? i ask because i actually have before. there was someone who i talked with alot and i grew fond of him and told him so then we started talking on the phone and long distance dating he even flew out to meet me and stayed with me for a few weeks. you can go back to my archives and see how totally mushy we were. well this post turned out to be very random not what i intended oh well a pic of panic! @ the disco my friend danny looks just like the lead singer! ~redmoonchick~

love, exams, and a new beginning

hi, well today was my first three final exams for the semester. all of them were pretty easy, for my math exam it was just a test (which i got an 84% on) then my inventions class final exam was to invent a rocket out of a paper bag, 2 paper clips, a balloon, a straw, and some tape and glue. my friend and i partnered up and it took us the whole hour but we managed to make our rocket work! we were also the only team to not have to go back and fix our rocket, our first design was our only design! then there was yearbook class and we didn't really have a final exam we just had to work hard but there is a very egotistical girl who works on one of my pages she puts herself on every fricken page! so aggrevating! also it seems that lately i can't find a good guy. i see all my friends in happy realtionships and it makes me sad that i don't have someone to lean on. there are guys at my school that i have had crushes on but no longer do and i hear the way some of the boys in my school talk and i definitly don't want to date anyone like that. i just want a sweet, funny, guy whose not a total moron. i'm not looking for someone whose super hot or anything. ah well guess i'll have to keep looking. now i better wrap this up before it starts sounding like a dating ad. today also i've decided to post a chapter of a story i'm writing. the story is about a school shooting so if you don't like that then you don't have to read. but i would appreciate if you did! redmoonchick presents a redmoonchick production: "MY friend rory" by: redmoonchick chapter one: three hours after midnight it was about fifteen minutes after three o' clock in the morning on a late thursday night or friday morning depending on how you look at it. it was this morning that i was awake in room darkened except for the glow of the computer screen at the desk by my window. i should've been asleep that night because after all i did have school the next day. i was sitting on my bed contemplating whether or not to go to sleep or just stay up and wait for school to start. i flopped back on to my bed staring up at the celing not really doing anything i wasn't even sure why i was awake everyone else in my home was alreay fast asleep except for maybe my younger brother who was probably watching a movie in his room. my sighs filled the room as i continued to lay bored out of my mind twirling a stand of my dark red hair around my index finger. " i could get on the internet" i thought "yeah i haven't checked my myspace in awhile" i decided rolling out of bed and sitting down at my computer. i glanced at the time in the corner it was almost three thirty i silently logged on to the net and proceeded to go to my myspace page. before i had the chance to log on a instant message popped up infront of me. it was my friend rory from school "why is he up so late?" i wondered for a moment before reading his message: Redking: hey Poeticsoul: hey, what ru doing up so late? Redking: nothing just thinking mostly. what about you? Poeticsoul: the same it was strange rory was never this calm during our net chats. rory was always joking around and saying stupid stuff. i blamed his sudden calmness on it being so late at night but there couldv'e been another reason for it. rory wasn't like anyone at our highschool he didn't dress or act like anyone else there. he was a true individual but it wasn't exactly a good thing. rory's uniqueness caused alot of people to dislike him and even bully him. it was never anything serious and rory could hold his own when it came to verbal fights. today at school was different though during third hour a group of guys ganged up on rory and beat him up in a closed off hallway. rory fought back and got pretty messed up but so did his attackers. rory stayed at school the rest of the day refusing to leave he claimed he was fine but you could tell he was upset: Poeticsoul: are you ok? Redking: just fine y? Poeticsoul: no reason i was just thinking about what happened today Redking: are you kidding that was nothing!!! Poeticsoul: it just looked like it upset you that's all Redking: y would i let those dick's bug me? Redking: anyway new topic: are you going to school tomorrow? Poeticsoul: i was planning on it y? Redking: don't go to school tomorrow "ok that's pretty weird" i thought to myself "why wouldn't he want me at school?" Poeticsoul: y? Redking: just don't alright. you or your brother don't come to school tomorrow! Poeticsoul: i don't think that's a good enough reason to convince my mom i waited for rory to anwser me but he didn't atleast not right away: Poeticsoul: hello? rory? you there? it was atleast two more minutes before rory answered me: Redking: yeah i'm here Poeticsoul: what were you doing? Redking: nothing worth mentioning. now back to the school subject i don't want you to go cause i wanted you, me, and ellie to skip school tomorrow so we can see a movie or something Poeticsoul: well i'll see what i can do but ellie already agreed to this? Redking: yup i talked to her earlier "rory must be upset about today and that's why he wants to skip" i thought "but theres no way my mom's gonna let me miss tomorrow... i'll just tell him that i'm gonna" Poeticsoul: alright rory i'll skip tomorrow. r we gonna meet somewhere or something? Redking: yeah i'll call you and tell you where we'll meet Redking: i'm gonna go to sleep now Poeticsoul: alright i'll see you tomorrow then goodnight Redking: night my conversation with rory left me with an uneasy feeling though i wasn't sure why. after our talk i no longer felt like surfing the net though for some reason i was compelled to visit rory's myspace page which i did. all seemed normal on his site so i read his latest blog entry which i was surprised to see was posted during the three minutes that rory stopped talking to me. i read the post which was short and strange. the post consisted of three words it read: "goodnight and goodbye" that was definitly weird and my first thought was that maybe rory was on drugs or something or maybe he was just going through a depressed phase? either way it just wasn't normal rory. it was then that i remembered something that rory had said earlier in our conversation he had said that our friend ellie was skipping school tomorrow too. was she really gonna? she couldn't picture ellie going along with such a abstract plan. i glanced at the clock once again it was now a minute to four fifteen in the morning. "theres no way that ellie is up" i stated but this whole rory situation felt like a big deal maybe ellie thought so too? i looked up ellies email adress and wrote her a short email: "hey elllie did you talk to rory lately he's acting really strange what do you think? write me back as soon as you read this!!! p.s are you going to school tomorrow? rory told me not to. -layla" i sent the email and decided to log off but not before i checked to see if rory was really off the net. i don't know what i was expecting but he really was off the net. i sighed wondering if i had blown the whole situation out of porportion. i logged off my computer and made my way to my bed flopping down on it to atleast get three hours of sleep. ************************************************** what will happen next time? you'll have to wait till next thursday to find out! (unless no one reads this) ~redmoonchick~

these foolish games

Hi, I’ve been on a bit of a fullmetal kick lately most in part to the fact that last weekend I went and bought the new fma game “dual sympathy” it’s pretty fun it plays through all the important episodes of the anime. The game is alittle boring and it’s over way to quickly but I like it. Especially all the extras after you beat the game. Like little mini games and character clocks. A funny thing happened while I was playing though. I had unlocked armstrongs voice clips and I was listening to them with my little brother in the room and he heard one and says “man that sounds like Armstrong is having sex!” I was omg *barf* who in the hell would want to imagine that? Not me. Along with my love for fma is also me starting to write my fanfic again. Yes I have written a very long fma fanfic that isn’t even almost finished but I was thinking of maybe posting a chapter up here on myo. Would anyone be interested? I’m not sure how many of you know fma. Nothing much else has happened lately except for there is this guy in my fourth hour that is horribly racist. He constantly harps on other races and threatens people he even said today that he was going to get a swastika tattoo on his chest! Crazy huh I mean how many people today are still like that. Also my friend Danielle is still planning on leaving this Friday. Even though no one wants her too but she was thinking about living with her dad so she could stay at our school but she doesn’t really get along with her dad so she’s not sure she can handle that. Ah yes its Wednesday and for the lucky people who enjoy my manga reviews I will be doing one today. REDMOONCHICKS MANGA REVIEW EDITION # 6 Today’s manga is “nosatsu junkie”. “nosatsu junkie” is about a female model named naka who desperately wants to be a model. Naka is a beautiful girl but her problem is that whenever she smiles her faces freezes up into a most horrifying pose! The rival model at naka’s agency is umi. Umi also happens to be the most popular model in japan. Naka model’s herself after umi but one day naka learns umi’s secret… umi is really a boy! “nosatsu junkie” is a fun read one of the glaring problems I had with it was that the characters are alittle annoying in the first few chapters but after that you warm up to them. What I don’t really care for is umi he’s awfully violent to poor little naka and it’s really not fair. Though to be honest naka is annoying and sometimes deserves her beatings. The story of “nosatsu junkie” is cool and after volume one concluded I was very interested in seeing where it leads to. Plus it helps that the art is cute and the guys (when their not in drag) are cute as well as the girls. This may not be the best story for the male species but girls will probably enjoy it overall I give “nosatsu junkie” 5 redmoons out of ten (that’s average) Well that’s my post for the day. I happen to have final exams the next two days as well as half days so I’ll try to be on when I can if not at school then I’ll try at home. Well wish me luck on my exams! ~redmoonchick~

more drama then soap operas and shojo manga combined

well yesterday started out to be a perfectly normal lazy sunday. my brother called our house at like 9:00 in the morning saying he was coming home (he had spent the night at his friends house) so my brother who is 15 btw comes home around noon with his friend alex who is gonna spend the night at our house. well my brother didn't just bring his friend home he also brought home a bag full of pot! (even though it's illegal!) so he's proudly waving his bag o' pot around and when i questioned him on where he obtained the pot he told me his friend's mother gave it to them. so then my brother and his friend proceed to smoke the pot and get totally high (i didn't smoke cause i hate pot) well after my brother is good and high about twenty minutes later i'm sitting on the computer and i hear my front door open. so i turn around all shocked cause this person didn't even knock and it was mine and my brother's other friend nathan. so i ask nathan why he came into my house without knocking and he's all upset and demands to know where my brother was. i proceeded to tell him so he confronts my brother and asks him about a break in that happened last night where my brother was staying. as it turns out two bags of weed and 5 grand worth of jewerly were stolen. my brother claims to know nothing about it and i believed him. so after nathan leaves my brother is all upset and scared we asked him where he got the pot again and he says that he stole it from someone elses house and not the house with the missing jewerly. he said my bestfriend gave him directions to a house he could steal pot from and that he and our friend greg went and stole pot from there lastnight. well now i'm mad that he lied to me so i called my bestfriend sydney to ask her if she did tell them to steal which she did but she didn't think that they'd actually do it. so after i talked to sydney greg another suspect calls and asks me if i know whats going on. i told him that i knew and he demanded to talk to my brother. nathan came back again and demanded my brother give the pot back that's when my brother confesses that he took the pot from the woman's house that he helped break into the house with greg and he had been lying about the whole thing from the beginning! i was so mad at him i literally wanted to kill him! so nathan took the pot back and went to try and get the jewlery back from greg so in the end nathan got everything back except a $1200 diamond ring which no one can seem to "find" and my brother isn't allowed in nathan's house ever again. also the woman whose house they broke into fililed a police report so who knows what kind of trouble he's in. so i guess after all this was far from an ordinary sunday! (sorry for the long post it's a long story) ~redmoonchick~ chapter one: three hours after midnight it was about fifteen minutes after three o' clock in the morning on a late thursday night or friday morning depending on how you look at it. it was this morning that i was awake in room darkened except for the glow of the computer screen at the desk by my window. i should've been asleep that night because after all i did have school the next day. i was sitting on my bed contemplating whether or not to go to sleep or just stay up and wait for school to start. i flopped back on to my bed staring up at the celing not really doing anything i wasn't even sure why i was awake everyone else in my home was alreay fast asleep except for maybe my younger brother who was probably watching a movie in his room. my sighs filled the room as i continued to lay bored out of my mind twirling a stand of my dark red hair around my index finger. " i could get on the internet" i thought "yeah i haven't checked my myspace in awhile" i decided rolling out of bed and sitting down at my computer. i glanced at the time in the corner it was almost three thirty i silently logged on to the net and proceeded to go to my myspace page. before i had the chance to log on a instant message popped up infront of me. it was my friend rory from school "why is he up so late?" i wondered for a moment before reading his message: Redking: hey Poeticsoul: hey, what ru doing up so late? Redking: nothing just thinking mostly. what about you? Poeticsoul: the same it was strange rory was never this calm during our net chats. rory was always joking around and saying stupid stuff. i blamed his sudden calmness on it being so late at night but there couldv'e been another reason for it. rory wasn't like anyone at our highschool he didn't dress or act like anyone else there. he was a true individual but it wasn't exactly a good thing. rory's uniqueness caused alot of people to dislike him and even bully him. it was never anything serious and rory could hold his own when it came to verbal fights. today at school was different though during third hour a group of guys ganged up on rory and beat him up in a closed off hallway. rory fought back and got pretty messed up but so did his attackers. rory stayed at school the rest of the day refusing to leave he claimed he was fine but you could tell he was upset: Poeticsoul: are you ok? Redking: just fine y? Poeticsoul: no reason i was just thinking about what happened today Redking: are you kidding that was nothing!!! Poeticsoul: it just looked like it upset you that's all Redking: y would i let those dick's bug me? Redking: anyway new topic: are you going to school tomorrow? Poeticsoul: i was planning on it y? Redking: don't go to school tomorrow "ok that's pretty weird" i thought to myself "why wouldn't he want me at school?" Poeticsoul: y? Redking: just don't alright. you or your brother don't come to school tomorrow! Poeticsoul: i don't think that's a good enough reason to convince my mom i waited for rory to anwser me but he didn't atleast not right away: Poeticsoul: hello? rory? you there? it was atleast two more minutes before rory answered me: Redking: yeah i'm here Poeticsoul: what were you doing? Redking: nothing worth mentioning. now back to the school subject i don't want you to go cause i wanted you, me, and ellie to skip school tomorrow so we can see a movie or something Poeticsoul: well i'll see what i can do but ellie already agreed to this? Redking: yup i talked to her earlier "rory must be upset about today and that's why he wants to skip" i thought "but theres no way my mom's gonna let me miss tomorrow... i'll just tell him that i'm gonna" Poeticsoul: alright rory i'll skip tomorrow. r we gonna meet somewhere or something? Redking: yeah i'll call you and tell you where we'll meet Redking: i'm gonna go to sleep now Poeticsoul: alright i'll see you tomorrow then goodnight Redking: night my conversation with rory left me with an uneasy feeling though i wasn't sure why. after our talk i no longer felt like surfing the net though for some reason i was compelled to visit rory's myspace page which i did. all seemed normal on his site so i read his latest blog entry which i was surprised to see was posted during the three minutes that rory stopped talking to me. i read the post which was short and strange. the post consisted of three words it read: "goodnight and goodbye" that was definitly weird and my first thought was that maybe rory was on drugs or something or maybe he was just going through a depressed phase? either way it just wasn't normal rory. it was then that i remembered something that rory had said earlier in our conversation he had said that our friend ellie was skipping school tomorrow too. was she really gonna? she couldn't picture ellie going along with such a abstract plan. i glanced at the clock once again it was now a minute to four fifteen in the morning. "theres no way that ellie is up" i stated but this whole rory situation felt like a big deal maybe ellie thought so too? i looked up ellies email adress and wrote her a short email: "hey elllie did you talk to rory lately he's acting really strange what do you think? write me back as soon as you read this!!! p.s are you going to school tomorrow? rory told me not to. -layla" i sent the email and decided to log off but not before i checked to see if rory was really off the net. i don't know what i was expecting but he really was off the net. i sighed wondering if i had blown the whole situation out of porportion. i logged off my computer and made my way to my bed flopping down on it to atleast get three hours of sleep. chapter two: seven o' clock on a friday morning i was awakened in the morning by my younger brother who was already fully dressed poking my forehead until i woke up. "why are you still sleeping?" he asked "usually your up before i am!" he laughed and strode out of my room. i wanted to anwser my brother but to be honest i hadn't know why i didn't wake up. i picked up my alarm clock and realized that in the events of last night i had stupidly forgotten to set it. as i stood and streched i thoughtn about last night and how in the morning light it did seem as if i was overreacting my friends did say that i was something of a worrier. thinking about my friends led me to remember the email i had sent ellie last night. i logged onto my computer as i waited for it to load up i dressed quickly hoping that ellie had checked her email sometime during the morning and that she had the sense to write me back. as soon as the computer loaded i eagerly checked my mail and grinned as i saw a reply to the email i had sent: "hey, yeah i talked to rory last night. i agree he was acting alittle weird but since when is he normal? i told rory that i wouldn't go to school today but my mom is making me so i'll see you there?-ellie' i wasn't sure if i was relived that ellie agreed with me about rory's behavior or if it made me worry more. i stuck my hair into a ponytail checking the clock it was about seven twenty five "were gonna be late" i sighed grabbed my bag and headed downstairs. my brother and i climbed into my father's car "your going to be a few minutes late" he said as he put out the cigarette he had been smoking "it's fine nothing ever happens during first hour anyway's" i told him. as we drove i stared out the window at the seemingly perfect day it was warm and sunny and it looked like it was the perfect start to a good weekend. "hey sis?" i heard my brother say. i turned to look at him "hmmm?" i mumbled back 'i got a text from rory that says not to go to school today, what's that about?" "oh that's nothing, don't worry about it" i told him. he shrugged and went back to messing with his cell phone. we arrived at school at seven fourty six only a minute late. we waved goodbye to my dad and headed inside for a normal day of school. once we were inside the school my brother and i went seperate ways but we always meet up again for breakfast. i climbed the stairs that lead to my first hour as i climbed i passed a few classmates i greeted them and continued on my way. the upstairs hallway was the same as usual people were walking around and standing by the large window at the end of the hall. i entered my first hour class curious to see if rory had shown up or not. my curiosity was satisfied when i saw that rory was infact not at school today but ellie was. i sat at my normal table that i shared with rory and ellie. as i stared at rory's empty chair i felt bad, what if rory really had wanted us to skip with him? now he'd be all alone. "did you get my email?" ellie asked i nodded "yeah" i said. "were you surprised that he's not here today?" i asked her "kinda but not really i mean he basiclly told us he was skipping" she said "yeah i guess he'll be watching that movie alone" i laughed a bit to make myself feel better for some reason i had gotten very depressed in the last few minutes. "what do you mean movie?" ellie asked "you know the movie rory told us to skip school for" i stated "rory didn't tell me anything about a movie" ellie said "what?" i asked confused "then what did he tell you?" "well he said that we could go shopping or whatever, he never really stated anything specific" ellie told me. now i was confused why would rory tell us two different things? had he changed his mind betweem the time he talked to me and the time he talked to ellie? i shrugged it off as a boy who was indecisive no longer worrying about rory i figured he was at home sleeping or something mundane like that. chapter three: almost eleven the rest of first hour past by relitivly normally and slowly as did second and third hour. ellie and i did our work peacefully just living yet another day at school. it was nowthe beginning of fourth hour and i decided to tell ellie about the somewhat cryptic message left on rory's myspace. "yeah that's a weird post" ellie said while scribbling down notes from the blackboard. while she did that i watched some of the other students in the class. a group of kids in the corner ecspecially a boy named danny was listening to his c.d. player while taking pictures of himself with his camera phone. his two friends girl's named danielle and cassie were talking and laughing at things that no one else wouldfind funny. other students were listening half heartedly to the teacher as he droned on about something that no one really cared about. i raised my hand to go to the bathroom and left the classroom glancing back at the class just once before heading to the bathroom. as i pushed the bathroom door opened and entered i heard the front doors of the school bang opened and closed again i thought nothing of it and kept on my way. i was only in the bathroom for about a minute and i was about to exit the stall to wash my hands when i heard a loud ringing echo throughout the school after my intial shock i quickly realized that it was the fire alarm. i heard the bathroom door open and a womans voice call out "any students in here need to exit immedently we're having a fire drill" "alright i called back" though i was tempted to just hide out in the bathroom until the drill was over. from the bathroom i could hear all the noises coming from the hallway. i could hear everyone talking the same old normal chatter between students until something not so normal cut in to the mundane mix. "he's got a gun!" i heard someone yell, i froze unsure if this was a joke or not but it had to be a joke! there was no way that anything like that would happen at my school i thought. i placed my hand on the handle of the stall perpairing to exit until i heard another yell "everyone run!" it was then that i heard a mass of yelling and the most bonechilling sound i've ever heard a gunshot. "oh god he just shot the mark!" someone yelled, i knew who mark was it was the humble security guard that worked at the school. a panic broke out in the school and i felt my heart drop to my feet other girl's were in the bathroom with me i realized as i heard one of them ask: "is this for real?" i heard her ask "yeah i think so" another answered. i wanted to answer too i wanted to tell the girls not to say anything lest we be caught and shot. it was then in my greed for my own safety that i remembered that my brother and ellie were still out there! still in danger but i couldn't bring myself to move. more gunshots rang out still more screaming, i recoiled against the back wall of the stall. tears leaking from my eyes. "who-who would bring a gun to school?" i wondered desperately was it some crazed man that broke into the school? or a more terrifying thought was it a student? and if it was then who? before my thoughts could continue i heard the bathroom door fly open and i froze my heart stopped beating atleast that's what it felt like. it more so felt like a new terror unlike anything i had ever felt before. hysterical crying was heard inside the bathroom and i knew it was a student "help me! for the love of god someone help me!" she screamed at the top of her lungs. i heard her try to pull open the stall next to mine but to no evail. "let me in please! please i don't wanna die!" she cried "no" the girl in the stall said "you'll get us all killed!" she screamed at the hysterical girl "please! how can you do that?!? please! i don't wanna die in the bathroom!" she was pleading i couldn't take it i couldn't hear someone beg for their life like that. in a moment of bravery i pulled open my stall and peaked out i saw the girl standing there her face a wreck make up ran down her eyes and she was shaking uncontrollably i also noticed something i wish i hadn't her shirt was covered in blood. i reconized the girl as a junior named julie "get in here!" i yelled at her she raced to my stall and squeezed herself inside with me "thank you! oh god thank you!" she cried clutching on to me. i quieted her down a bit "what's going on out there?" i asked feeling no more braver then before i had let her in my stall. "my boyfriend got shot he's dead!" she sobbed out. "but who? who has the gun?" i asked franticly, before i could hear her answer the bathroom door opened again and this time i was sure it wasn't another survivor. it was far too quiet to be anyone who had just escaped being shot. i heard the hollowed footsteps walking in a even tone, as i heard those steps i thought about everything i had ever seen on school shootings, i was trying to remember what those survivors did to live through the experience but i could almost garuntee that none of them were cornered in a bathroom by the shooter. the steps rew closer and my heart beat faster so fast i was sure everyone could hear it, i was sure we'd be caught. just as suddenly as the footsteps had started they stopped and i sick silence filled the echous bathroom. "it's no use in hiding i know you girls are in here" the shooter said right away i knew the shooter was a boy but i couldn't tell who it was. was it a student that went to our school? "girls don't be afraid i'll make it nice and quick" the voice said, as the words left his mouth a sick sense of realization struck me. i knew who the shooter was, words echoed into my head "don't go to school tomorrow alright?" suddenly the stall door was kicked in. in all truthfulness i had expected the shooter to just shoot up the door thus killing us for sure. i found my self praying as the door was kicked again this time forcing it off it's hinges. julie started to cry hard and to be honest i couldn't no tears would come as i saw the face of the shooter. it all sunk in the shooter standing before us holding his weapon proudly was none other then my friend rory. "this is it" i thought "i'm going to die here at school in the girls bathroom killed by my friend who went on a murderous rampage" i waited for the sound, the last sound i would ever hear the shot of the gun that would blow me away, but that shot never came. "layla?" i heard my name being said i opened my eyes slowly looking up at rory from the floor where julie and i had huddled. i saw rory truly now his face shown a true surprise at my being there and i was sure if i wasn't so scared my face would show the same. "why are you here today?!?" rory yelled at me "i-i-don't know!" i said honestly afraid. even though rory was my friend there was still no certanity that he wouldn't shoot me still. "i told you not to come to school today! i told you!" he said "i know i'm sorry i didn't know you'd kill people, i-i never thought you'd kill people!" i found myself cowering in fear from him. "relax layla" he began "i'm not going to kill you, your my friend" rory said calmly "but everyone else here is dead" he told me glaring at julie. what he's going to keep killing? i thought "no rory please don't kill anyone else!" i begged "sorry layla, i have to keep going" julie screamed and before i could do anything a shot was fired. my eyes widened i felt a warm stickyness on my face and hands. i turned to look at julie who was right next to me, to my horror julie was dead a bullet hole adorned her neck and a sicking feeling hit me as i realized that it was julie's blood on my face on my hands. i screamed and the tears that had had refused to come before now were rushing down my face rory turned away from me "it had to be done" he said in a somber tone "now for the others" he whispered "no rory!" i yelled still crying. i got over my shock and crawled away from julies body "please rory don't do it don't!" i yelled with all my might "rory looked back at me smiling in the light of the bathroom i could see the gun he held a small pistol with loads of amunition strapped to him "the guns nothing fancy just enough to get the job done" rory told me as he watched me staring at it. "i better hurry, layla get out of here" he said "rory stop" was all i could manage to say and even that barely came out "did your brother and ellie come to school too?" he asked "yes" i whispered, how could i have forgotten them? i can't promise their alive" rory told me "you better go look for them. i wanted to stay, i wanted to help those girls still trapped in the bathroom but the urge to look for my brother was far greater, i was still undecided until rory whispered these words to me "if you don't go i'll shoot you layla" with those words i left the bathroom cying i was out in the hall when i heard the screams and gunfire. chapter four: eleven thirty hell on earth once i had reached the main hallway i immdently wished that i hadn't. the bodies of students littered the hallway. blood was also now flowing everywhere i slid in it slightly as i moved away from the bathroom. behind me i heard rory coming my first instinct was to run but i wanted to see who had been killed i had to make sure my brother and ellie were alright. my eyes scanned the hall silently counting each body my total came to fifty five bodies in the hallway alone. i had wondered how rory managed this until i saw a persumably empty semi automatic gun laying in the hallway. "it's empty" i heard rory say from behind me, i turned quickly to face him "why rory? why are you doing this?" i asked "these people deserve this!" rory said montioning his hand to signify the massive damage he had inflicted. "are there more?" i asked praying that he'd say no "yeah alot, i caught them trying to escape downstairs and the ones who were in ther classrooms" he stated. i was afraid of the person who stood before me, it was no longer my friend rory it was a person who obviously went over the deep end. rory was nothing more then a monster. i turned away from rory and scanned the bodies again looking for the clothes that my brother and ellie were wearing, i was relived when i didn't find any sign of them but i shuddered to think of all the places i'd still have to look. i remembered that rory had said that he shot people inside classrooms i instantly raced to the classroom i had been sitting in just thirty minutes ago. inside the classroom was no better then in the hall, tables were turned and the chalkboard was cracked shattered by a bullet. our teacher mr. stevens was laying dead infront of the board his back stained with chalk. i went to where we'd been sitting and peaked over the flipped table afraid of what i'd find, to my relief neither of them was here either. from the windows in the classroom i could see the street outside some students had made it outside i also noticed that the police had blocked the streets off except for news vans which were also parked outside. how long would it be before this was all over the news? would my parents see the report? would they think i was alive or dead? all these questions raced my mind, questions i vowed to anwser once i found my brother dead or alive. from inside the classroom i could hear a t.v. on from somewhere, i followed the sound as it lead me to the school's office an area i now feared to tread. despite myself i entered the office anyway and found rory was watching the t.v. he had it turned to the local news channel that was currently showing a picture of our school. a newscaster soon replaced the photo and rory turned up the volume using a remote he held in his hand. "this is sarah jenkins live at the scene of a school shooting at clearview highschool. we have little information about the shooting including the identidiy of the shooter but we do know that he is a male student. we will keep you updated as the stroy proresses" the newscaster left the screen and a helicopter's eye view of the school was shown. "i'm famous" rory said proudly. "you should turn yourself in" i suggested to rory, "are you crazy? i'm not done yet! we have to keep the police from coming in here..." he stalled off as if he was thinking. he looked up grinning "i have an idea, come on" he said grabbing my arm and pulling me towards the pricipals office. "what's your idea rory?" i asked sickened to find the secretaries bodies under their desk's lifeless. the principal's office on the other hand was empty "did you kill mr. radcliff?" i asked "yeah, he was trying to stop me" rory said climbing up on the principal's desk "to anwser your first question layla, my idea is to take you as my hostage" "what?" i thought not clearly understanding what he meant. clearly the situation had gotten worse. rory was slowing losing it right in front of me i was terrified. the further rory slipped into insanity the less likely it became that i would escape with my life. i watched as rory glanced out the window that was located just above the principals desk. i wasn't really sure what he was looking for i didn't ask; i just sat and watched trying hard not to think about the two dead bodies that lay just beyond the office. i was snapped from my thoughts by rory climbing off the principal's desk. while i watched him i contemplated grabbing the gun from him and even possibly shooting him while i had the chance; but i was cowardly and stood my ground as i watched rory safely press his feet to it. he turned and looked at me but said nothing and i was the same. a huge amount of silence grew between us but we kept eye contact oh god how i wanted to look away. finally rory broke the contact and glanced again to the television continuing to watch the news cast. "get up to the window" rory told me. his eyes still glued to the TV. i did as he said using the principals swivvle chair to climb atop the desk. i kneeled on the desk infront of the medium sized window sickended when i realized that i was kneeling in blood left by rory's shoes. i looked back at rory unsure of what to do next. he was now gazing at me instead of the TV. "uh-what now?" i asked him frightened that the smallest word from me might set him off. "unlatch the window and get the cop's attention" rory said now holding his gun level with my back. i glanced to the gun; rory saw and laughed a bit. "don't worry it's just for show" he started motioning the gun towards me as a signal to get a move on with the plan. once again i followed rort's orders and unlatched the window. i felt the warm spring breeze hit my face and i couldn't help but wonder if this would be the last day of my life; and for how many countless others it was. now my goal was to get the police's attention but what to do? should i just yell? or throw something? before i could make up my mind on what my distraction would be the police noticed me. "hey there's a girl in that window" i heard one of them yell. almost instantly all eyes were on me. one of the cops had grabbed a microphone and proceeded to talk to me. "young lady! tell us what's your name?, are you hurt?, where's the shooter?" he yelled at me. i was silent rory hadn't told me what to say. did he want me to sy anything at all? i was about to ask him what i should do next when he spoke first. "yes it worked!" i heard him excitily say. i turned once again to look at him and the TV which by now i knew he was staring at. the TV newscast had changed from a overhead shot of the school from a helicopter most likely. the view had changed to a straight close up of the school, of the principal's window to be exact. the camera was pointing directly at me. i was too far away from the television to see myself clearly; but maybe i didn't want to see myself in that situation. did i really want to see it on TV? because if it was on the news then it meant that it was real and i had realized that this whole time a part of me had believed that it wasn't real; though i didn't see now how that was possible. "were famous laylah!" rory exclaimed as if we had won some sort of award or that we were famous for a good reason. he looked at me with excitied glee filled eyes and emptiness filled me. rory really did believe that this exposure was a good thing and i had recalled in other stories of school violence that the shooter was always desperate for attention. "keep going laylah, tell them your name so our fame will continue." he spoke softer now his eyes gazing adoringly at the newscast. as i perpaired to speak to the police i realized that i could hear the reporter talking through the TV. "its a horror story here at clearview highschool" the reporter began, her voice showing all the emotion of a somewhat interested participant in the action. "a teen boy whose identidity is still unknow; brought a gun to school today and began shooting his classmates." i was slightly sickened to hear our situation being catogorized so casually. i perdicted that after everything was said and done the clearview school shooting would be told as another classic case of a picked on kid who snapped and killed his tormentors. the reporter babbled on: "it appears the boy has taken a female student hostage. police are trying to get anwsers from her as we speak." "young lady please anwser us!" i heard the police yell at me. "m-my name is laylah!" i yelled back at them. for some reason this simple anwser caused me to break and tears flowed freely from my eyes. maybe it was the fact that someone would help; maybe it was that i felt that i was safe now. either way i was crying. "and do you know the shooters name?" the police called to me. "yes," i called back "its my friend rory" almost instantly ours names were broadcasted over the TV. " we now know the name of the shooter. its a sixteen year old named rory. his female hostage is a seventeen year old named laylah" "you see now laylah? were totally famous." rory told me; as if i be pleased that i was on TV for this reason. "laylah are you hurt? do you know how many people are dead?" the police asked. "i'm not hurt but alot of people are dead." "how many laylah?" the asked me. i didn't know; "why are they badgering me? its not time for twenty questions" i thought slightly angry at the people who were suppose to be saving me. "i-i don't know; all i know is that its alot" i told them in all honesty. i hadn't gone through each body and counted them indivually hell i couldn't even find my brother or ellie. i decided at that point that it was now my turn to ask the questions. "did anyone get out?" i asked eagerly. praying that my brother and ellie had managed to escape and were now safely outside. "yes a few people got out when it all began" they said "why are you looking for someone?" "yes my younger brother. his name is alexander" i said apphrehensivly. i was afraid that they'd tell me no and that my brother was still trapped in this hellhole. i never got an answer from that police officer because at that moment rory grabbed my arm and pulled me down from the desk. i fell backwards onto the office floor; it wasn't too far of a fall so i wasn't hurt. as i was perpairing to get up i noticed that my knees were stained crimson; the blood from the desk.
