Corys POV
       I sat on the edge of my bed, my head gently resting on my hands. I can't believe Tommy said that... I thought bitterly, debating whether or not to go talk to Tommy. He embarrassed me infront of Uni.. What a sniveling worm! I heaved a sigh of annoyance, "I should go tell Nick that Tom likes him right now... Serves him right..." I muttered angrily. Then there was a sudden knock at my door, causing me to jump slightly in suprise. I sighed at my own stupidity, then I looked at the door curiously. "Come in!" I called, staring at the door. It opened slightly to reveal a familiar blue haired boy. Uni poked his head into my room, he stared at me for a second, then he walked into my room and shut the door behind him.

       I immediantley redirected my gaze to the ground, blushing slightly in embarassment. Uni walked into my room and sat on my bed next to me, staring at his feet. We were awkwardly silent for a few moments, then Uni spoke. "Soo... How's life?" He questioned. I raised an eyebrow, "Why are you so awkward all of a sudden?" I questioned. Uni smiled, "Hey, don't call me the awkward one. You're the one silently staring at the floor. Im just trying to start a conversation." Uni said simply. I chuckled, "Sure..."
       
       I looked at Uni again, "So, why do you suddenly feel like bringing your awkwardness in here?" I questioned after another short silence. Uni smiled, "Because im BOORREEDD!" He said loudly, throwing his hands in the air. I chuckled, "What about the others? Why not talk to them?" I questioned. Uni huffed, "Wow, it's good to know that you don't want me here." He said simply, crossing his arms and playfully glaring at me. I chuckled, "Im just askin'." I said, putting my hands inftont of me innocently.

     Uni smiled, "Fine, I don't feel like talking to Tommy, I couldn't find Nick, Ashlie said she wanted to be alone, and Jon wouldn't answer his door." He explained quickly. I raised an eyebrow, "Jon wouldn't answer his door? That's really unlike him..." I murmured. Uni nodded, "I know right, but I don't think we should worry about it." Uni said quietly. I nodded, then I had another question. "Why didn't you feel like talking to Tommy?" I questioned. Uni looked down at his feet, "Because he doesn't know how to keep his mouth shut." Uni spat bitterly. I sighed, "I know what you mean..." I muttered.

      Uni glanced at me, "I know Tommy upset you this morning." He said simply. I looked away from him, embarassment pricking in my stomach. "Yeah...A little bit..." I said quietly. Uni nodded, "Don't take what he says personally. He doesn't understand that we can't be creating grudges against each other...Especially not now..." Uni said quietly. I glanced at him, "What do you mean?" I questioned curiously. Uni looked at me, then sighed.

    "If you think about it correctly, we are at war right now.... And we cannot afford to lose each other in this battle." He explained. "A war?" I said in suprise. He nodded slowly, "Yes, we are fighting a war against our demons, and they're stronger then us, but together we can win this." Uni said, a small smile forming on his face. "This sounds like some metaphorical nonsense." I said, raising an eyebrow at Uni. Uni chuckled, "I guess..." He murmured. I smiled slightly, but I immediantly noticed Unis sad seeming attitude. "What's wrong, dude?" I questioned. He sighed, balling up his fists in anger. "It's just....I wish Duni hadn't dragged you guys into this...I would rather fight him alone, then have you guys possibly get injured fighting with me..." He muttered sadly. I glanced at Uni, suprised at was he'd just said.

      I smiled slightly, "Wow, you really do always wanna save the damsel in distress, don't you?" I teased, but Uni said nothing. "Uni...We're all fighting our own battles...But how do you expect to fight a war alone?" I questioned, and Uni only sighed in response. "I...I don't know...I don't want you guys to get hurt, though..." He said quietly. I leaned comfortingly against Uni's side, "Don't worry about us..We can fight our battles..When the war comes, we'll fight together...And everything will be okay then...I promise." I murmured, and smiled slightly as Uni leaned against my side. "I sure hope so..."

                              Jon's POV
       I sat on the far corner of my bed, my back leaning against the wall, and my knees pulled close to my chest. I can't believewhat Ashlie said earlier..NO ONE deserves to die.. I can't imagine someone wishing that someone else was dead...I mean, I guess there's some exceptions, but It's still a terrible thing to say... I can't help that I feel bad for Don, honestly! I know he's a demon...But I see a good in him! Honest! It's something that I didn't see in Dashlie or Duni! I huffed, "What's wrong with me... I can't even wish death upon those who deserve it!" I snapped angrily to myself, burying my face into my knees. "Jon!" I suddenly heard a familiar voice call from outside my door. What's Ashlie doing here? I thought to myself.

       I stayed silent as I heard Ashlie knock softly in my door. She knocked again, then I heard her sigh guiltily. "Jon...Im so sorry!" I heard her blurt from beyond the door. "I know how much life means to you!" She said, and I lifted my head, listening to her. "You always have believed that no one deserves death! You ALWAYS seem to see the good in everyone!" She continued, her voice slightly muffled from outside the door. "Jon...I don't know how you do it! But it's amazing! You always find the good in the world, even if no one sees it!" She said, her voice sounding more desperate now. "You're the light of this group, and I'm so sorry that I upset you!" She cried, and I heard her sniffle. Is she...Crying?

       I heard Ashlie sigh heavily, and sniffled a bit. I heard her put her back heavily against the door, and slowly slide down it. "Jon...Please...Im sorry..." She said quietly. I slowly stood up, and carefully walked to the door. I stood at the door for a moment, and I held the door handle. I held the door handle for a moment, then I slowly pulled my hand back with a quiet sigh. I put my back carefully against the door, then I slowly slid down it. I felt Ashlies presence on the other side, and I heard her soft, rapid breathing. "Jon..." She murmured, but I said nothing. "I'm sorry...." She whispered. I smiled a bit, "I forgive you..." I murmured quietly.
