My story

3 weeks before the tragedy.

"Hey, Kiiii!" Sing-songed Sakina, as she waved her hand above my face. "Whattt?" I groaned, looking at her in exaggerated boredom. We were sitting at one of the wooden benches in the yard of the school, during lunchtime. I was slouched in my seat, with my head resting on my arms. My eyelids were heavy and I was struggling to remain conscious. I really need to get more sleep instead of staying up late watching anime. I tend to do that a lot recently. "You look like a train wreck. Why do you always stay up so late!?" She questioned, as she slid into the seat next to me. I sat up from my slouched position and turned to her direction. "Maybe because I'm against kid-napping!" I grinned, trying to crack a joke, however, my tired state found it difficult to enjoy my own humour. "Ugh." She groaned, gently slapping me across the face. "Eek!" I squealed as I pretended to fall off the bench, accidentally scraping my knee as I did so.

 "Ouch." I groaned as I watched a small trickle of blood dripped down my leg, followed by a much larger drop. "Shoot. How did that happen?" Asked Sakina, as she knelt down and inspected the scrape, "We better take it to the nurse, and she can bandage it up." She muttered some more stuff to herself. "Jeez, it's just a small scratch." I groaned, hanging my head back, wishing she hadn't noticed it in the first place. She always over exaggerates things inside her head. "No, it's not." She scoffed, however, the worry was evident on her face. I looked back down at the scrape, to see a huge cut running across my knee and down my leg. "Wha-" I began. 

Then I saw the glint of metal reflecting in the bright sunlight. A blade. How had I not noticed this before I fell? Sakina followed my gaze and saw the blade too. "Oh shoot..." She muttered. Forgetting my cut, she ran over to the blade and inspected it. She had always had a strange interest in knives and other weapons, I have never questioned it though, all I knew was that she had gotten it from her mother. "How did this get here?" She muttered to herself as picked up the weapon. As she turned it on the side, I could see a huge slatter of blood along the edge of the blade, presumably from the cut on my knee. She perked up as she seemed to have remembered about my cut. 

She ran over to me again and helped me up to my feet. She draped my arm over her shoulder and lifted me into her grip, so she could support me as we evacuated to the Nurse's Office. "How are you not screaming in pain!?" She said, shock and worry were clear on her face. Now that I think about it, I can't feel anything. No pain or agony from the large cut on my leg. I glanced down at the gash as we walked - or hobbled in my case. I shivered as I looked at all the ripped tissue. The huge cut was leaving a trail of blood behind us as we walked. 

My breaths were getting shorter, and my hobbles were growing slower, as the short walk to the Nurse's Office drew on forever. My vision was already blackening at the edges, my head hanging low as I trudged along with Sakina. I could feel no pain whatsoever, but the physical effects were more than evident. We walked in silence, as her worried face watched me. I could tell that she had realized that she should've just left me at the bench and brought the nurse to me instead. But finally, I watched as Sakina pulled open the curtain to the office with a shaking hand, and stumbled into the bright room. 

"Miss Rioseru!" She exclaimed, sitting my beaten, bleeding self into a nursing bed. She ran over the nurse and they began muttering inaudible stuff to one another. My eyelids were growing heavier, and I could feel my consciousness slipping. I watched drowsily as they buzzed around me. Just before I fell unconscious, I vaguely noticed Kakushi Suteru grinning at me in the corner, his blood-red eyes, (were they always that colour?), eying me with glee. Till finally, it all turned dark.

"Kikazi? Are you there? Please... help me..."
