The Light For The Day. [Jason]

[Luna Katanashi]

The sun pierced her sleep. How cruel, she still wants to accompany herself with the bed, but she just wants to go out for a while. She went out and was clad in her uniform. Wearing another kind of clothing makes her sick. Later, she was gazing ruefully at some of the dying flowers -- that she didn't notice that she was already in Freedom Space.

Well, she saw the lover's Labyrinth nearby. Hoping that Ryuu was there, she went to that place.

There were contrasting obstacles that can be spotted, but Ryuu wasn't here. She sat down on a bench and no one was with her. A bundle of leaves were landing beside the spot she was currently sitting. her entertainment was dehydrated again. She wanted to eat breakfast, but truth to be told, none of them met her tastes.

Well, she really didn't need to eat up, she just want to be with someone -- like Ryuu. He is just-- the light of the day. She shook her head, recalling the time when Jason admitted that he has some feelings for her. That's when she felt someone approaching her. Who was it now?

OOC: I'm blocked.

[Jason Psychosis]

Jason walked up to the Labyrinth. He was hoping that he would see someone. Anyone. Loneliness was always Jason's best friend, but now it is replaced with thoughts of Luna.

Luna.....

The name itself felt like it was burned in Jason's forehead. No matter how hard he tried, he couldn't get her out of there.

Maybe if I call her by her real name, Jason thought, Then I could get over her. Yeah, that's it! The next time I see her, I'll call her....

"Luna!"

Though he thought he could do it, when Jason saw her sitting on that bench, Jason felt his heart almost jump out of his chest and into her hands. Holding his chest and his breath, Jason walked up to the lonely-looking girl and said "Why are you here all alone? Isn't this the "lovers' Labyrinth? You should be here with someone."

But what if she is? What if she has someone else and I need to give up? What if I'm a hopeless failure? What if.....I start acting....like Ri did?

The thought of that made Jason get chills over his entire body. What if he started to lose controll? What if he hurt his friends? What if he.........liked hurting them?

No! Not Luna! Not my Luna!

[Luna Katanashi]

'Luna!'

It was another voice. It wasn't Ryuu's this time. It was Jason's. She was getting alert now. Now, her heart rate was excelling, her breath coming in shorter gasps. She could already feel the sweat beading under her fringe while gulping along. Her eyes ironically avoided the trees that were lining the place; that were blocking the sight on one of her acquaintances.

Her cheeks went pinkish slightly as she saw Jason's appearance. She doesn't care of the Freedom's Space average population, he was one of the people she desired to see. After a few more moments of staring at him, she was already being reminded of something and it was painful. Well, she doesn't care on what he just said earlier.

"Jason..."

She whispered while abruptly running up to the boy and hugged him tight. As far as you can see, she was now crying silently. Want to know one of the reasons? She was intimidated by the fact that what she also felt for Jason -- was more than friendship.

[Jason Psychosis]

Jason flinched when Luna hugged him. Thought he didn't mind her doing it, it seemed kind of....special this time. Before he could do anything else, Jason found himself wrapping his massive arms around Luna's shoulders.

Though she might never see me as more than a friend, this hug feels like it was coming from.....a lover.

[Luna Katanashi]

Well, she doesn't care if everyone is supporting her to be with Ryuu. Of course, she does love Ryuu so much. She ignored the objects and the remaining people's existence entirely just to focus on crying while hugging Jason. Plus, she wasn't in the mood to care.

"Jason...."

She whispered again with traces of sadness in it, tears still rolling down. She was also tempted to say "I love you", but regained those words in her throat. If she will, her heart will break that she just committed some kind of sin to Ryuu.

Sorry for Jason, but she just love him so much. Jason is on the "love" list too, but this is a love triangle now.

"I need.. to tell you something."

OOC: ARGH! Still blocked!

[Jason Psychosis]

Jason heard a small moaned come from his throat, He was enjoying Luna. He was enjoying holding her and being her rock in her time of need. Time stood still. Minutes felt like hours and time was a luxury that could be wasted. Through his thoughts, Jason heard Luna speaking.

"I need.. to tell you something."

"Then tell me," he said, neither tightening nor looseing his grip, "We are friends, remember? You can tell me anything."

[Luna Katanashi]

"I just... like you."

Like? Oh, this is branding her as a timid girl. Well, it's normal, but she is acting all whimsical all throughout. Love scenes still surpassed the rate of drama in this current spectacle.

She pleasingly hazarded a smile upon her face when she was letting go from the hug this time. Still, tears were rolling down. It's as if they were shouting the demands for the confession to be spilled. She can't even do that.

"Well, just abandon that."

She told him, nearly laughing. Besides, her organisms were in need for nutrition now, so maybe they might go somewhere else wherein there is food available since she had not breakfasted yet. At least, with a boy she somehow, loved or just liked.

[Jason Psychosis]

"I just... like you."

"Like. Love. It means nothing to me. We are just friends. And we will......"

Before Jason could finish his thought, he felt her letting go of him. He felt naked. He wanted to wrap his arms around her once more, and even more than that when he saw her tear-filled eyes. Finally she spoke once more.

"Well, just abandon that."

Confused and still sad about having to let her go, Jason managed to nod in agreement. Slowly he walked past her, making sure he could "accidentally" brush by her arm.

[Luna Katanashi]

Brushed by the arm. She only placed a hand on her left shoulder; ignoring his sudden action. When she faced at his direction, she realized their faces were only a few inches away despite of him having a side view. She instantaneously glanced down with cheeks that were burning already. Her embarrassment level was keeping a pace marginally faster than before.

"Anyway, do you want to eat with me?"

She invited and she even didn't want that to be answered. Her cheeks were still red with all that talk with him; in fact, these must be one of the assumptions of her beauty. Whatever. She didn't scorn silently on what she just did, but you really will feel so shy often when you invite a boy over -- especially when it is about eating.

A smile was also slipping through her features, trying to fight those tears from falling down again.

[Jason Psychosis]

"Anyway, do you want to eat with me?"

Nervousness. About what? And why did I think it would be a good idea to get so close to her?

These questions, along with others were running through Jason's mind. And all of them had one thing in common; each question was about his relationship with Luna.

Not really knowing what to say or do, Jason once more nodded. Though he'd had other girl friends, none of them were like Luna. Everytime he was near her, he felt something that most people didn't have: her own style. This is one of the many things that Jaosn respected about Luna. Suddenly feeling himself smile, Jason took Luna's hand and together they went to get breakfast.

[Luna Katanashi]

OOC: Let's make this a little exciting. ><;; Lol, sorry about this.

Before she could even wipe the slight sheen of sweat from her forehead, she felt herself being pulled by Jason again. Though, her midriff was being pulled back -- violently. Before she could even yelp, a knife was ready for her stud neck. Well, she can't remove herself away either. Besides, she was being held firmly in the arms. Surely, it was a guy who held her. Her eyes checked subconsciously if the knife was making any progress. Not yet. Thus, her mouth was concealed by a cold hand.

She wanted to succumb now. It was really good to meet Jason and Ryuu and her other friends around here. Knowing some of them, they could be prancing around, but she has no time to say goodbye. First, she realized that the attacker was a Middle Schooler and he has friends coming to join him as well. Her tears just vanished periodically, so she doesn't want to cry right at this moment.

One of the older students smirked and was just milling around in circles. Only to find out that he was also going to kill Jason. She struggled to come up with something to say and opted for remaining silent. Even though she will try to say something, her mouth will only suffice muffled noises. At first, she struggled to release herself from her attacker, not even bothering to be conscious enough with the knife. Are they having mucked brains? Why did they do this?

Finally, she loosened herself from the tightened grip.

"Jason! Be careful!"

At this, she was being kicked in the back. She fell to the ground. As she tried to stand up again, her back was being pushed back down again -- only for her to be pinned on the ground. This scene was too flashy and revealing. For the Middle Schoolers, they thought that she and Jason were akin. She felt a knife coming for her. This is the day.

"Jason... I..."

[Jason Psychosis]

Either these kids didn't know when to quit, or they really didn't know Jason. Not only did they capture his friend, but they were also threatening to kill her. On top of that, Jason had just finished a teary conversation with Luna, making him very hardened now. But the worst part was that the attackers were kicking Luna too. Noticing the guy with the knife was about to strike, he heard Luna start speaking.

"Jason... I..."

Luna....NO!

"Luna!" Jason looked at the boys. "What do you want?! Why are you doing this?!?!"

Time seemed to stop for a moment, as Jason looked into the eyes of the boy with the knife. He knew he couldn't fight him. He ad two guys on his side and a knife. Since Jason couldn't fight them, he decided to try to reason with them.

"Look," he said, reaching into his pocket, "I can pay you." He pulled out a small, black wallet. "All I have right now is four hundred dollars, but if you give me some time I'll get more."

You play as the attackers. Right now, I'm blocked.

[Luna Katanashi]

Right, her crying session was being postponed. Then again, she doesn't want her eyes to convert into vermilion in color just because of crying. This tribe of Middle School Students is going demented, but she desired so much to free from all of the lamentation in her life. Of course, she heard that they sometimes bully younger students like her, but she didn't have an inkling that they are disrespectful to this degree. She pondered on what will unfold next. Will she die?

'Luna!'

That name, she doesn't want that name to enter her ears anymore. Death is consistently an inheritance -- and she has to accept the current situation. Maybe Jason couldn't grasp the basic keys to victory. She was just silent; and was always being stomped on the back. It's so painful. It was a noble deed for Jason to save her but, it's a little futile to her general point of view. Hence, she needs to be stabilized like this until she dies.

If she will, she wouldn't see the day and night sky at random points in time. Might she add, it's a shame that she won't be able to meet Ryuu's sister in the future.

'What do you want?! Why are you doing this?!?! Look, I can pay you. All I have right now is four hundred dollars, but if you give me some time I'll get more.'

"Ja--son..."

She was in a critical condition, so she doesn't have to say something. Well, she wanted to know what's gotten into the older students, but guess they need elixirs or something. Thus, she doesn't have time to anatomize on what the older students want. Her body remained riveted on the ground, but she can still lift her face up. To her astonishment, they took the money Jason offered and she was now unpinned from the concrete ground.

"Well then, here's your girlfriend."

Said one of them as she threw her into Jason's arms. They went away. She tried to stand up in her own accord, but failed to do so; she dropped back down to the floor. There were dirt all over her, but she doesn't feel so good.

"Jason... thank you."

She fainted.

OOC: Guess that's it. Out of ideas. Anyway! She needs to go to the Infirmary, so who's gonna make the thread? Can you be the one? If it doesn't hurt. ><;;

[Jason Psychosis]

"Jason... thank you."

"Luna....Shanine...."

Jason picked Luna off the ground. He still couldn't believe that those thugs would do something like that! Hurting an innocent girl! Forgetting them entirely, Jason focused on the task at hand: getting Luna somewhere safe.

But where? Those guys could find her and try something like this again! I'll deal with them later. Right now I need to get Luna somewhere with a bed.

Deciding to follow his insticts, Jason carried the girl to his dorm.
