It was weird. I had gone all the way to Japan! To visit Angel. She was staying in this nice hotel and hadn’t invited me but for some reason I wanted to go. So I rushed to her and met up with her in the lobby. There was this little girl in the elevator, she just smiled at me and I smiled back. We rode the elevator to the 5th floor then got off, waving goodbye to her I followed Angel into her hotel room. Messy. Just like at home, that girl can’t not make a mess can she? Finally she asks.

“Why’d you come here? I didn’t invite you?”

“I know” I say with a sigh, “ I just needed to get away for a little while."

She rolls her eyes like normal then goes into the bathroom to take a shower. The view around me was amazing. I wrote out a note for Angel and grabbed my Camera. I proceeded outside where things began to get strange. There were men in black robes following me around and even then I was forced into an colosseum. Walking onto the dirt field I saw that girl once again. She was laying there and this man was ripping her shirt off. I screamed and ran toward them. He looked up and fled. Kneeling next to her I could see she was unconscious so I picked her up.

Holding onto her I tried to climb up out of the pit with one hand. I managed to get her up onto the ledge but began to slip myself. Was i really going to fall from this height. If I did I was die on impact. But I saved her right? My fingers slipped and I began to tilt backwards. I thought, well this shouldn't happen... But maybe I'll be spared and I'll die before I land. Suddenly her small fingers wrap around my wrist and she screams to me.

"You can't die yet! You are a guardian." All the while she is pulling me up.

I had failed to notice that while she pulled me up that she herself was topless, getting too close to the edge, and also being targeted by the men in the cloaks. Or was it I who they targeted. I crawling onto the ledge and rolled away from it. Then she looked at me wide eyed. Blood trickling down from the corner of her mouth. She then smiled and sighed.

"I'm sorry..." she said.

Such an innocent girl.

"I'm sorry... I couldn't protect you like I wanted to." Why was she saying this?

Bright lights flashed and the evil men disappeared. I picked her up, where had this crowd of people come from? I rushed her to a bench and laid her down. I took off my jacket and folded it under her head. Then a girl next to me put her jacket over this girl. Time seemed to stop, one minute this girl is on the verge of dying and the next she's gone. A single tear falls from my eye then freezes. Upon closer inspection.... I realized that it had begun to snow.

I woke after I rose my eyes to the sky to watch it come down.
