IX: Help!
Multi and Toguro, 3rd person
It had been a while since they separated from the group.
They walked in what was partial darkness. The lamps that were hanging around the maze were dimmer than they were before.
The wind wasn't making the situation any better.
But what was worse was the silence between them.
Usually they would be fighting over something, anything.
But all that could be heard was the wind and the distant screams from people getting jumped scared.
Toguro couldn't stop thinking about what had happened earlier.
With Multi on top of him.
He couldn't believe they had been so close to each other. It had made his heart beat so fast that it felt like it was going to bust right out of his chest.
It all had proven Cho's suspicion...
(flashback)
Cho and Toguro had just left Multi off at the lion's jungle.
They had just watched the "how to eat life" MV and were now having a conversation when Cho noticed something was off with Toguro.
"Hey are you ok?"
Toguro had his face turned towards the window. Lost in thought..
He hadn't realized when Cho talked to him.
Cho had his suspension on who she was thinking about.
While they were watching the MV, Cho had noticed that Multi had fallen asleep on Toguro.
Toguro gave her a panicked look and had a very flustered face.
Cho couldn't do anything so she just gave a 'sorry, I can't help' look.
So Toguro sat the rest of the time with a sleeping Multi nanairo on him. At some point he had also taken his lollipop out of his mouth so he didn't choke on it as he slept.
Later Toguro also fell asleep.
So Cho got a nearby blanket and covered them up before she left to train for a bit.
When they woke up they were very shocked to say the least.
And very embarrassed.
But Cho suspected something else was going on.
So she was going to test her theory.
"Are you thinking of Multi?"
King's head turned around so fast you couldn't even see it.
"That's ridiculous! Why would I be thinking about her?"
Even with his outburst, you could see his face had started to heat up.
Cho took this as an advantage, So she told him in a calming voice.
"You know you can tell me anything."
King sat there in silence and wandered.
Cho has been his friend for a long time, he trusted him. Even when he lied to him he would never leave his side...
He slowly opened his mouth and asked him..
"How do you know if you like someone?"
Cho sat in silence as he proceeded Togurps question.
"Do you mean like a friend? Or 'Like' Like someone??"
Toguro had gone silent again. He himself didn't even know what he was feeling.
Cho decided to go for what she thought Toguro was talking about.
"Well, if you 'Like' Like someone.
You tend to think about them often. You like to spend time with them and will go to extremes to protect them.
You'll sometimes get jealous when they hand out with someone else.
And......you just cant seem to live without them."
Cho stared at Toguro. His face had gone completely white.
Toguro looked like a fish out of water.
Cho looked at King with a serious face.
"Toguro, do you like Multi?"
After that question, both of them sat in silence for the rest of the ride..
Toguro's mind was racing, there was no way he liked him..
That night he had a horrible nightmare.
He and Multi were at the rooftop.
They had fought over something again. But it was different this time. They were on their own.
Just the two of them.
But something grabbed him from behind and covered his mouth. Multi grabbed his arm and pulled him away from whoever had grabbed him.
They both turned and stared at what seemed to be a person. It was shorter then them but seemed to be very strong. They were a black cloak with purple flames which covered their entire body and face. But a few strands of golden hair stood out from beneath the cloak.
"Who are you!?"
The figure said nothing. In a flash, it charged towards them. Multi pushed Toguro aside.
Toguro landed on the ground as he saw the horror unfold.
The figure had pushed Multi towards the edge of the building.
It was impossible to fall off since it had a fence but in the moment they pushed Multi, the fence disappeared and Multi fell.
Toguro screamed and tried to catch her but he couldn't move.
The figure turned towards him. In a low, deep voice he told him..
"This is Just the beginning."
He woke up in a cold sweat. His heart was pounding and he was at the verge of tears... His hands were shaking as he finally let the tears fall.
It was only 3:00 am when he woke up. But he was so shaken by that dream, he didn't want to go back to sleep.
So he did anything, to keep himself up.
When school started, he was looking for Multi everywhere, hoping it was only a dream.
He turned the corner and saw her grabbing her stuff from her locker Toguro was relieved and went to the bathrooms.
There, he had a mental breakdown.
He kept telling himself how he was okay nothing to worry.
(End of Flashback)
That day made Toguro questioned everything about himself.
Did she really like him?
And the bigger question....who was that person that pushed Multi in his dream and what did he mean with 'this is just the beginning'?
Both of them took a turn, but something seemed off.
The ground was made of wood.
The whole time, the trail was either sand or hay.
But now it had changed.
They looked at each other in confusion.
"Should we go?"
"We could...unless you're too much of a scaredy cat."
Toguro looked at Multi in outrage.
"I AM NO SCAREDY CAT, MULTI!"
Multi laughed at this as Toguro went ahead.
Suddenly, the lights went out.
Both of them became very confused.
They started to walk back but ground broke under Toguro's foot.
"RUN!!!!!!!"
Multi yelled as he grabbed Toguro's hand.
Both took off but the crack became larger. Toguro lost his grip and fell backwards.
"Toguro!!"
Multi looked back to see him falling. She quickly grabbed onto his arm.
"MULTI! HELP ME!!"
Toguro was grabbing onto Multi for dear life.
Multi tried to pull him up but as she did.
Toguro noticed an all too familiar figure behind Multi...it was the guy from his dreams.
"MULTI! BEHIND YOU!!"
As she turned around, she saw the figure as her face paled.
Everything after that was a blur.
The figure pushed Multi in and both of them fell in.
The ground above the closed as in concealed their screams.
Then there was silence...
