Selina walked back to the bathroom and set the small round hamper on the counter. “Um here, Im sorry if you dont like any of it. I just grabbed random things at different sizes. Hopefully something will fit you.”She said with a awkward smile and a small shrug. “Also um I grabbed you a towel, there is everything you need in the shower, and hair stuff in the cabinet..Once you are freshened up we can whip you up something to eat.”She explained happily as she headed for the door to give the girl some privacy.

“Thank you, but do you have scissors?”The girl asked curiously in her soft hushed voice.

“Oh um yeah, we have a pair in medicine cabinet..Why?”Selina asked cautiously.

“I wanted to cut my hair. I have money also, I like to go buy hair dye.”She said explained looking to the ground.

“Well as long as its just your hair your cutting..”She said softly but then smiled “Freshen up first then we can decided if you like to go shopping or eat first.”Selina said before walking out of the bathroom shutting the door quietly behind her.

Selina brushed her hair from her face and let out a sigh, she hadn’t expected this but she was happy to help the girl in any way she could. As she rounded the corner she caught her grandmothers curious look.Selina had planned to ignore it but she force to look back and answer when the old bat opened her mouth.

“What is she doing?”She asked as she twirled her grey hair, or atleast what was left of it, around her boney finger.

“She is showering, cleaning herself up.”She exaplined waving her hand down the hall once she heard the shower start up.

“Oh…Well what do you plan to do with her next?”She asked in a bratty little voice, obviously un happy with the stranger in her house.

“Well once she is showered, im gonna make her some dinner then take her down to walgreen for hair dye.”She explained with a shrug acting like it was nothing so she could leave the room quickly.

“Why? I dont have money to give her.”She said with a scuff and a scowl.

“She has some money, and she probably wants to change her appearance, its a way to help cope. She been through a rough time..”Selina said feeling slightly annoyed.

“Yeah well your grandfather and I went through harder times and we never did something stupid like that. It must havent been that bad, she obviously alright.”She said rolling her eyes as she continued to twirl hair. She took a drag from her smelly cigarette about to open her mouth to complain some more, but Selina didnt get her a chance.

“We all cope differently and handle things differently.”She shrugged “Whatever, its her money and her life not much any one can do about it. “She said before walking away not even daring to look back at the look she was probably receiving.

About half a hour later, The girl emerged from the shower dropping off her ratty old clothes in the garbage with her towel around her neck.

“Ah glad something fit.”Selina said as she entered the dinning room from the kitchen. The girl managed to fit a pair of her jeans, and a old tee shirt with a faded coke logo on it.

“Yes, thank you. Really. I appericate it.”She said with a shy smile.

“Have you decided if you wanted to get dye or eat first? you must be starving..”She said slightly worried.

“I rather eat first..but dont worry a couple get me a little something yesterday so its okay.”She explained as her eyes dropped to the floor. She wasn’t fully comfortable talking about her whole situation still, but she knew she had to soon. She would have to talk to the police, and maybe..her family missed her and would take her back. Before she could continue her thoughts Selina,thankfully, interrupted her thoughts.

“I wish I could offer a wonder home cooked meal, but I can offer a thrown together partially home cooked meal.”She said with a small laugh. “We have all sorts of quick easy meals in the freezer unless you prefer a sandwich or maybe a burger?”She asked curiously. She wished she could haves whipped up some chicken, potatoes and sides but sadly she didn’t have all the ingredients. She had to make due with what she had.

“What ever is easier for you..”She said not wishing to be a burden.

“Well hope about a little pot luck sorta thing?”She suggested heading over to the big freezer behind her. She rummaged through it pulling out a frozen pizza, a box and two small bags. “this way everyone is taken care of.”She smiled brightly at her feeling pleased with herself. “Your not a vegitatrian are you?”She asked glancing over her shoulder as she made her way back to the kitchen.

“No, and im not picky either so no worries.”The girl said drying her hair with the towel as she awkwardly stood there in the corner.

“You can sit down you know…either on the bed, or the table…”He said glancing at her from his computer.

“Right thank you.”She said shuffling to a vacant chair. The dinning room was large, it had a long table next to the glass door, it was cluttered with the computer and desk stuff though. Then a large queen mattress was placed in the middle. Across from that was a clothing rack, two duffel bags and a small shelf that stood beside the large chest freezer. She looked at the next wall to her side, the garage door, the garbage can, two chairs, and the mail slot. It was interesting space, she wondered why they lived like this.

Selina was busy in the kitchen, heating up a pizza and mini chicken sandwiches while deep frying fires and cheese sticks.  “Oh if you want something to drink there is plenty to choose from.”Selina said over her shoulder.

“Yes thank you.”The girl said again rising up from her seat. There was a mini fridge and she peeked inside. It was stocked with coke, diet coke, dr.pepper,diet dr.pepper, along with juices, yoohoo, and all sorts of water.

As you lay in bed, resting your weary head, a news bulletin flashes across the television screen. Its reported a young girl was killed a few blocks away, they release a sketch of the man and all you do is sigh before clicking off the tv. You hope the family can cope, and the man captured but its far to late for you to care at the moment. You force yourself out of bed to lock your windows and door. A nightly habit almost forgotten every night. As you shuffle down the dark hallway, trying to adjust to the pitch darkness, you stumble and trip over a sneaker careless placed in the middle of the floor. You scowl but you get to your feet and check the sliding glass door. You eyes slowly adjust, with the help of the outside light, and you notice a figure standing out there. A large man, out there in the falling snow,its no more then a minute for you to realize who it is and you reach for the phone.

As you slowly dial 9-1-1, raising the phone to your ear do you spot the lack of foot prints in the snow. Its not until the blade make it way into your back that your realize i was his reflection you spotted and he was behind you the whole time..

“Okay yes!, Im stupid, immature and dont always think..But must you really be so cruel as to deny me a meal while im here?”She whined sinking slowly into her chair across from him.

“How else are you to learn?”He asked giving her such a dull soft stare, unamused with her. She was annoying, and terribly hard to look after. It amazed him how she even survived, she acted like more like a human child then a Baku. Hiruko stretched his arms above his head “Besides..”He began to say letting his arms fall to his side “shouldn’t you be..I dunno else where?”He asked

“Hiruko! how rude of you..”Mizuki said shaking her head at him, “Please dont mind him. He is just hungry…”She waved him away with her hand then settled down in a seat beside the new girl. “So tell me, have you known Hiruko long?”She asked curiously. Surely by the way the to acted when she entered they must have. When Mizuki awoke she found the two arguing, and from what it sounded like they were old friends, but the odds of that were so unlikely.

“We have ran into each other a few times…Well I should say walked past each other often, Silently critiquing the other while at work with a ‘Client’.”She said smirking slightly as she gazed over at Hiroku. “It wasn’t till recently when we shared a client that we finally learned each others name. This girl had a horrid nightmare, I took care of it…Then..a new one came in and she visited Hiroku…I bumped into them, and joined him on his adventure. Since then he has deemed me childish, and immature…”She said with a sigh. “And to think I came here in hopes you could help a fellow baku out.” She laid on the guilt in high hopes it would work, but he seemed uninterested.

“Nope.”Was all Hiroku said before leaning back in his chair.

”..Oh dont mind him, please tell me what is the matter?”Mizuki asked curiously studying the girl before her.

“I..was staying with someone, a few hours away from here…helping with nightmares and such..but..”She paused almost struggling to find the proper words to say. “Something has come up and has now left me homeless..Surely being stuck with Hiroku you know how horrid the sun can be..and no one wishes to deal with a baku unless a nightmare is involved..”She explained gripping on his cane, “So perhaps you could help me find some where to stay?”She asked feeling hopeful.

“Nope.”Hiroku said not giving Mizuki the chance to speak.He wasn’t going to be stuck with this brat.

She glare at him and crossed her arms over her chest. “Always so talkative?”She mumbled feeling angered by his dismissive behavior.  Not even bothering to give her a chance, he probably wanted her to melt in the sun light.

Ding

The group looked back at the door where a tall elegant looking women stood, she looked nervous almost unsure if she should even had bothered. Mizuki rose to her feet offering a warm welcoming smile “Please, come in.”She said. “Are you here on behalf of a nightmare?”She asked helping the women out of her coat.

“I am..”She replied softly as she brushed her long raven hair from her pale face. “I..I just..cant get it to stop..Its like a record on repeat..”She cried out as she was lead to the table with the two Baku.

“Please tell Hiroku all about it..”Mizuki said heading behind the counter to brew up some coffee for her. It was a dark and rainy night, she must have been freezing.

“I..I am Sakura Nakamura..”The women said introducing her self.

“Forgive me!”Mizuki said cutting in “The singer Sakura Nakamura?”She asked quickly not wishing to take up all her time with silly questions.

“Why yes..”She said with a light smile, “I am…but I dont know for how much longer..”She said as the smile faded away, “You see in my nightmare, Im on a beautiful stage singing my heart out when suddenly…The music just repeats the last part over..and over..and over again.. I left standing there unsure what to do, I cant finish the song…I try to find my manager out in the sea of faces but he is lost among them…I try to find my song writer, but…when I look to the left where he usually sits..Close to the stage so he can listen to his words come to life…Some one else is seated there in his place looking so saddened..and depressed…”She explained gripping tightly on the cup of coffee she was given. “I cant stand to left my audience down due to something so stupid!”She cried out.

“Do you know the song you are singing?”The girl randomly asked her.

”..I feel like I know it in my dream, but I awake..I cant remember the words, only part of the melody….I dont know where the song came from either…Its not like my usual songs…”She said staring at the girl curiously.

“Does the stage look familiar?”Hiruko asked leaning on the table slightly, his elbow propped up and his chin resting in his hand as he listened.

“Well yes it does…Its sent to be closed down soon since the owner passed away…There is a final show set up, but no one, not even the works know who is preforming..Its a giant mystery..”

Hiroku smirked slightly and rose up to his feet with his cane in hand, the smirk faded when he noticed the girl rise up too with a devilish smile. “Im not stealing your food, im just going along for the ride….”She said planing her hand on the girls shoulder.

“Sleep now, leave this world behind.”Hiroku said.

I dont know how it all happen exactly, or why any of is happening. I dont really wanna know why anymore, what I want to know is why I am not scared out of my mind….

I was sitting on the floor happily talking the night away with a few close friends. Just random conversations that made hardly any sense to even my self. Slowly as the hours ticked away, one by one they all left to go to bed..Soon it was down to just one. That was when i began to hear noises outside, I got up and clicked off my lamp then settled back on the floor glancing up at my window. I became easily paranoid at night, and beginning the only one awake didn’t help me one bit. I began to talk to my friend about it, he suggested it was the stray cats, and I just nodded to myself knowing he was probably right. So I tried to carry on my conversation with him ignoring the odd sounds coming from the back yard.

It was probably ten minutes later when I heard the porch door being opened. I froze, my mind racing a mile a minute. How was that possible? No one is awake! It cant be opened from the outside..Right? All sort of thoughts rushed through my head as the soft ding noise repeated over and over from my friend sending me messages to see if I was still there. I quietly tried to type to him telling him something was wrong. I hardly had the chance to finish my sentence when my door was flung open and I was staring straight at a large man with a gun.

I bit my lip unsure of how to react, I slide my hand back slightly so it pressed down on the enter button and took a deep breath to calm myself.

The man slowly smiled, a creepy slow smile that struck fear into my heart. “Get up..”He spoke inching toward me.

I nodded, slowly moving the keyboard off my lap, and tried my best to be sneaky and use the mouse to click over to my other tab. Judging by his face, I obviously failed.

“Log out, turn it all off..shut it down.”He ordered in a low voice, the smile fading into a evil snarl.

I nodded again, logging out of my Facebook, and potter more account, then pretending to clicking my web cam off and accidentally turning it slightly towards him. I took a quick picture of him, posting it on tumblr before shutting it off the computer ignoring the other things I had open.

I clicked off the screen and gazed over at him, only a small sliver of light glowed in my room. My heart was pounding loudly in my chest, my breathing became un-even and my chest hurt from my panic attack that was striking.

“Get dressed, wash up. We are leaving.”He ordered waving his gun around.

I collected some clothing and slowly walked past him into the bathroom. I took as much time as I could before he barged in and tore me out of the room. He keep his grip tight on my arm. We slipped through the backyard, I managed to grab my shoes before he shoved me out the door, but getting them on would have to wait.

The grass was still slightly moist from the showers we had this evening, sending chills up my spine with each cold wet step.

Once we got to the large car, my mind flashed back to criminal minds and it made me wish my dear Spencer Reid was sitting in that passenger seat before I got shoved into back seat.

I grumbled to myself, aggravated annoyed and extremely tired. I manage to get my shoes on while I was in the car. To my surprise though when I glanced up…There was some one in the passenger seat. My heart skipped a beat at the thought of that. All I remember were the dark brown eyes glancing up into the review mirror gazing at me.

Before I could really say anything or figure out what was so familiar the car lurched forward causing me to slide into the floor.

“Bloody hell you ass!” I yell climbing back onto the seat fumbling with the seat belt. The car was picking up speed, and I was far to afraid to look out the window or any where near the speedometer.  My fingers were gripping into the seat my eyes were locked on the floor and my thoughts were all over the place.
