• Akira: The Trapped Pt 22
    -Where we left off, but a few hours later 12:35-
    -Nijix’s View-
    I couldn’t sleep at all, Akira was snoring like everything was alright, while I slept on the couch like nothing was going the way I wanted it. She rolled over onto the floor with a loud thud. I chuckled softly as she got up slowly, her head turned towards me while her eyes were closed.

    “….Don’t say a word.” She grumbled and opened her eyes.
    “…..Word.” What? She said don’t say a word. So I might as well say the word. Akira shrugged her shoulders and climbed into bed again, she threw a pillow at me and fell back to sleep. I kept laughing silently at her. I finally fell asleep, thank god.


    -Akira’s View, Morning Time-
    I kept poking Nijix in the face and stomach to wake him up. I yawned.
    “Wake up mister I’m Stay up All Night and Laugh at Akira” I told him a bit annoyed. Nijix opened one eye and looked at me, a smirk appeared on his face. He was going to say something smug and annoying, I just knew it.
    “And that makes you Miss I’m Going To Wake Up and Fall Off The Bed Head First.” Nijix chuckled at me. That was it, in less than 10 seconds Nijix was on the ground and I was sitting on his back, his arms behind his back.

    “…You learn fast.” Nijix mumbled in pain. I got up and sat on his arms again harder.
    “ARE YOU UP NOW?!!!” I yelled at him, he whimpered and nodded swiftly. I got off of Nijix and tapped my foot waiting for him to get up off the floor. He slowly got up and I was on the wall in seconds.
    “I learn faster.” Nijix chuckled and gently grabbed my hand and walked out of the door. Damn him!
    “ I hate it when you do that.”
    “I know you do Akira. That’s why I love doing it.” Nijix winked at me. I twitched with my mouth wide open, but I shut my mouth quickly. Man, he gets me so mad sometimes!


    -10 Minutes Later, in the meadow-
    -Nijix’s View-
    Akira didn’t know that I was taking her on a date to a place that I found out about a few years back. I hope she likes it, even if she is a little mad at me.
    “Where are we going, because I’m tired.” Akira started to complain.
    “We are going on a date, and you really need to run around more. You get tired to fast. What if we run into trouble and we have to run for our lives? Are you going to tired then?” I told Akira, I sighed and rubbed my neck. I heard the rushing waterfall that filled into a pond, time to blindfold Akira.
    “Akira, close your eyes for a second, please.” I asked Akira nicely. She blinked at me, and stared coldly into my eyes.
    “WHAT MAKES YOU THINK I’LL CLOSE MY EYES FOR YOU?!!!” Akira yelled at me, like a male lion to a intruder. I cringed and sighed, wrapping my arms around Akira I jumped about 3ft into the cool water. We surfaced and I got a breath of fresh air.
    “Isn’t the water refreshing?!!” I laughed still clinging to Akira, her nails were deep in my back. I guess she thought she was going to die.

    “….I can’t swim, don’t let me go….” She puffed out, she was angry but scared. Crap, I didn’t even ask her if she could swim. I swam to the ledge and Akira jumped away from me and onto to dry land. I climbed up and sat near the ledge.
    “Sorry Akira, I didn’t know.”
    “You’re lucky I did not drown.”
    “ I’ll try to be more careful with you, ok? Now…for our first date.” I smiled and walked to a nearby bush and pulled out a picnic basket I saved for me and Akira. I laid out the food on a blanket, rice cakes, chicken, sake, stir fry, friend rice, rice balls and a lot of sushi. Akira’s eyes sparkled when she saw all that food, I knew she would.


    -Two Hours Later-
    We ate and talked about everything that happened before we met. Like when I was little and I use to prank everyone in my clan. I even got my own dad with a bowl full of worms. I had tied Kino to a tree when I was 7 but I never ever could prank my mom. Akira laughed at me when I told her about the time my mom came in my room with a 15ft pile of clothes and told me to fold them all when I was 10. That was the best prank ever, even though I helped folding.
    “Your mom must have been very sweet. She raised you well.” Akira smiled but a bit of sadness washed over her face. I tried to change the subject but Akira asked me a question.
    “ Who looks more like your mom? You or Kino?”
    I paused.
    “ I do, and Kino looks like dad but dad’s face was much kinder. My mother..she had blue eyes the color of a sapphire, and my silver hair. My father was not originally in my clan mom was, but he had the most handsome hazel eyes that seemed to sparkle at night and brighten up your day in the morning. His has was black as the night sky. He use to be a healer but then after meeting my mother, he was bound to protect her..he became a fighter. I guess I’m boring to you right?”

    Akira shook her head.
    “No I’m amused. But really you’re not boring, at least you have some history to tell. I mean only thing I have is a few dumb stories about my school and a little of my parents. Your very lucky Nijix.”


    -Akira’s View-
    Nijix paused after what I said. I mean he is very lucky, he had parents that I could never have. Even if they are dead, he has a lot of good things to talk about.
    “ I think we should go now, before it gets dark.” I suggested to break Nijix out of his deep thought. He nodded and we packed up the leftovers. As we walked away I looked back at waterfall and smiled since Nijix pretty much planned this all. I grabbed Nijix’s hand while he carried the basket in the other.
    “I’m also lucky to have you Akira.” He silently stated, I sort of blushed. Nijix..I’m lucky to have him to. Even if our love is going to end either way. My heart started to slow down, and Nijix was getting blurry. I pasted out yet again, and all I heard was Nijix panicking again.


    -Akira’s Dream-
    Tiyo sat on a cliff, it’s edge jagged and sharp rocks down below. It seemed to draw you in slowly with its torture and darkness.
    “ Sorry to kill your date Akira. But we have a problem.” Tiyo stated quickly, he wore blue cargo pants and a white sweater. His hair was spiky and his eyes seemed to sparkle.
    “What’s the problem?” Was all I could ask. I was annoyed he ruined my date, and a special moment I had with Nijix.
    “Your love for Nijix is the problem.” Tiyo sighed at his own words. But it stabbed me in the heart like a knife. How can Tiyo be jealous already?!
    “Your jealous?! W-why?!” I stammered, I couldn’t believe this.
    “No I’m not the one who is jealous. Kino is, he is not satisfied with Nami. And what would make your brain think I was jealous for a second? I’m happy for you…really..” Tiyo forced out the last words.
    “Well, Kino is not going to get me anyway! My heart belongs to…” I couldn’t even say Nijix’s name. Not in front of Tiyo. I knew Tiyo and Nijix both love me. But I couldn’t say nothing.
    “Belongs to who??” One of Tiyo’s eyebrows went up, he was partly confused and annoyed.
    “Belongs to me. Now wake me up!!!” I stomped the cliff.
    “As you wish…”
    As I stomped the cliff, it cracked and rumbled, my feet slipped from the top of it and I fell to the sharp rocks below with a scream of terror. My last thought in this dream will be.
    “My heart Belongs to…both of them…”


    -Back to Reality-
    I woke up in a cold sweat, Nijix loomed over me, giving me CPR. But I didn’t care because I was safe, and Nijix’s lips made me feel warm all over.
