Tenshi "Shishi" Shikami
"What's the point of being at the top..."
Tenshi eyed the screen for a long time. An internal dilemma had lodged itself deep within his mind. Firstly, the midnight channel was real and all the rumours surrounding it, or at least one of the rumours must be real. But which one? There was the rumour which meant whoever showed up on the channel was your soul mate. Tenshi felt a chold chill run down his spine. 'I dont have anything against cripples. I just dont see myself ending up with a man... I'm not gay damnit.' The second rumour was that whoever turned up on your screen was your killer. Someone who would end up killing you. 'Shima, would you really kill me? We're not close, but I've done nothing wrong by you. At least not intentionally.' The screen flickered and died just as suddenly as it had come on. The room fell into darkness.
Tenshi grabbed his phone and the empty pizza box off the coffee table as he stood up. He stepped outside onto his balcony and shoved the pizza box forcefully into the already stuffed garbage can. He leaned over the railing as a text came through, and flipped his phone open, or at least he tried. The railing was still wet from the rain, and his left elbow slipped, the sudden movement and slight shock, allowed for the phone to fall helplessly through Tenshi's fingers, his heart fell with his phone, along with all his contacts, pictures, some music for just incase his ipod died. He watched in grim silence as the phone fell all the way down into the ground floor flower bed. "YEAH!" He couldnt contain his brief surge of delight as he punched the air, not noticing how his scream had disrupted the silence.He rushed to his door, slipped on his shoes, and made his way down to the ground floor, take the stairs two at a time. There was a slim chance his phone was unscathed, but that's a chance he was willing to take.
As Tenshi pushed open the gate to streets, he couldnt help but feel that he was exposed. It might have had to do with the fact that he had his sleepwear on. A white cotton t-shirt and and black cotton pajama pants, assorted with chibi images of Pokemon. The gate slapped shut behind him as he walked to the flower bed, his steps echoed through the streets, each one seemingly more louder than the next. He found his phone covered by some dirt, but other than that everything was okay. He read the message Julianna sent him, she didnt describe who she saw, he wondered if she left that out on purpose, and typed in the message as he made his way back to the gate, glancing over over his shoulder once, when he thought he heard a sound, it was nothing.
Yeah, the tele switching on, was creepy as hell. Im still creeped out by everything, although im amazed as well. But, did u see a cripple too?
Tenshi hit send and placed the phone in his pants pocket. He then tried opening the gate and found it had locked itself behind him. His heart sank as he realised he didnt have his keys on him. He buzzed Mr. Touro in room 10, the maintenance guy, Tenshi was used to finding himself outside without a key, and as a result had become good friends with Mr. Touro. He had already buzzed 20 times, when he let his head slowly rest against the gate. He slammed is hand into the wall next to the gate when he found he couldnt phone from his phone either. 'This day... Cant possibly get any worse.' He then buzzed everyone at once, after a moment of waiting for a single response. He kicked the gate with his heel and stalked off towards the convenience store, defeated, and frustrated. He let out a shout of anger as he kicked a can on the street corner. He shoved his balled up fists deep into his pockets, and stalked off, his anger making him oblivious to the Tower looming over the skyline.
"First Sakura. Then the face plant. Then I almost run into Yua... Wait, Yua!!"
He pulled out his phone, and checked his contact list, Yua's number was still there. He hesistated before texting her, but he knew her gang was out and about, he knew because he was part of them not too long ago. Hopefully he could convince them to let him stay in the hideout for the night. He felt the chill set in his bones as he texted.
Hey Yua, I know we haven't spoken in a while. But, I could really use your help. For old times sake? -Tenshi
He added his name, for just in case she had deleted his number. They hadn't exactly parted on the best of terms. He sent the message and continued towards the convenience, his uneasy having sky-rocketed, now that he was cold, in pajamas, waiting for Yua's reply and he still couldnt help but feel creeped out.
"... when Everyone could be together down here?"
