~Chapter 4~

   "Ai, go!!" Adriana yelled as she stopped someone from attacking me.
   "But-!"
   "No! You have to get out of here! Caleb and I will take care of them! You remember what I told you right!?"
   "Yeah, but-"
   "Ai! Get out of here!!" Caleb yelled.
   "I'll save you, both of you! I promise!"

   "Ai! Thank goodness, you're back! Wait...where are Caleb and Adriana?" Miranda said as I rejoined her.
   I gave her a sad look. "They're gone."
   "What!? NO! They can't-!"
   "But it's okay!" I interrupted. "We'll get them back."
   "What? How's that possible?"
   "Well... Adri told me that when an angel dies, they're reincarnated on Earth. In fourteen years, we can get them back."

   I am a ghost, or at least, that is my form when on Earth. The correct term for what I am would be an angel. Us angels live up in Heaven, a place above the clouds that people can not see. We were always peaceful, we never meant any harm to anyone. However, there is another race that did. This is a race of what humans would call demons. They are creatures made from the souls of the dead who were not able to make it to Heaven.
   They live in Hell.
   Hell tried to destroy Heaven, and a war broke out. Many were lost, but King Caleb and Queen Adriana protected all of Heaven, and ended the war. But, the price was their lives. I dread the fact that I was right there and I couldn't help them. Adri, my best friend from when we were still alive, died to save me and the rest of the angels.
   That is why I must save them. Hell will rise again, and they will destroy us if we don't have Adri and Caleb with us. We need them. So, fourteen years now have passed since the war, and now it's time. Caleb and Adri will have been reincarnated on Earth after they died. Now, all I must do is find them, and get them to remember everything. Hopefully, I will get them before Hell does.
   "Are you ready?" Miranda asked me. Miranda is my friend who I met after death. She died on the same day that I did. In Heaven, the day you died is sort of like your birthday on Earth. Miranda has shoulder length black hair and light purple eyes.
   "I think so."
   "You won't be gone long, right?"
   "I hope not."
   "Well, just remember that no matter what, I'll still be here when you get back." Miranda gave me a friendly smile.
   "I know. Thanks." I took a deep breath and closed my eyes. "Through the clouds, between-"
   "Ai!!" A familiar voice said.
   Miranda smiled at me. "I'll leave you two alone."
   "What...?" As Miranda walked away I turned away to see a familiar tall boy running towards me. He had short brown hair and bright green eyes. As soon as he reached me he wrapped his arms around me. "N-Nolan..."
   "Thank goodness you haven't left yet," he said. "Ai, I know I'm just a friend to you, but...I love you, Ai. I know I do. I don't want an answer right now. Just, think about me while you're gone. Think about how you feel about me. I'll still be your friend, even if you reject me. I'll be waiting for you." I smiled and hugged him back.
   "Goodbye, Nolan." I took a step back and gave him a smile. I again took a breath and started over my prayer. "Through the clouds, between Earth and Sky, grant me wings, so that I, have the power I need to fly, to go to Earth, and leave the sky!" Huge white feathered wings spread out wide from my back. I walked to the open window.
   "Ai," Nolan said from behind me. I turned my head around.
   "Hm?"
   He gave me a kind smile. "Goodbye."
   "Bye," I said. I jumped and let myself free-fall towards Earth. I landed somewhere in the ocean and was washed up on shore. As soon as I felt the sand underneath me and the cool salt water brushing against my skin, familiarity washed over me, and I suddenly realized how much I missed the real world. "Earth..."

~Chapter 3~

   What is a dream? A dream, people say, is our subconscious mind's imagination at work while we're sleeping. Some people have dreams of memories, of their past. Some say they have dreams of the future. And some have dreams that give them messages. But what is a dream to me? Before, my dreams had always been the imaginative type. They were usually something strange, random, crazy. But that changed some years ago, and after that moment, my life would never be the same...

   "Hi, I'm Liliana!"
   "Hi! I'm Adriana!"
   My head burst off my pillow. That was real. I remember that. Two years ago, when I met Adriana. So...Why do I feel scared. I feel like you do when you wake up from a dream where you die...
   "Liliana." I looked around my room. There's no one there. Oh... I get it. I'm still dreaming.
   "Yeah?"
   "Liliana, it's time to awaken," the voice said.
   "Awaken? Okay, I'll just pinch myself."
   The voice ignored me. "You're friend is in trouble, and it's your job to protect her."
   "Wait...You mean Adri? How could she be in trouble? How could I protect her? Who are you?!" Okay, I know this is a dream, but this feels real...
   "Someone will be coming to claim her life. You were born to protect her."
   "What? But how?!"
   "You are Adriana's protector." My entire room around me began to fade into a stark white light.
   "Wait!! What do I do?! How can I-"

   UMPH! Oww...What the...? Oh. I stood up. I had fallen off of my bed. Huh... haven't done that in a while. I walked over to the bathroom and turned on the faucet. I splashed some cold water against my face. Jeez... What was that? I mean, dreams always feel real, but there was something different about that one. As I towel dried my face, I was hit by a wave of dizziness. Everything around me blurred as it spun and I felt lightheaded. I suddenly felt the cool hard tile of the floor against my face and realized I must have fallen. What the hell is this?!?! And then it appeared. The first sign of my life changing.

   "Hi, what's your name?" Adriana said.
   The boy looked up at her, flustered. Then slowly replied, "Caleb..."
   "Well it's nice to meet you Caleb! I'm Adriana, and this is my friend Liliana!" I waved.
   "Umm...It's...nice to meet you..."

   What the...? That was...weird. Who was that boy? I've never seen him before... Oh well. Whatever. I opened my eyes and got back up. The dizziness was gone and I could finally think straight. I looked at the clock. 2 a.m. Great. I sighed and got back in bed. Hopefully I can get four hours of sleep before I have to go to school tomorrow. I shut my eyes and felt as though I'd been asleep for MAYBE two seconds when my alarm was buzzing.
   "RRRGG!!!" I slammed my hand down on the top of it and it immediately shut up.

   "Hey Liliana, are you alright?" Adri asked when she saw me.
   "Oh yeah, I just didn't get much sleep last night." She still looked slightly concerned so I smiled.
   "Okay... Anyways, I think we should become friends with that new kid Caleb." Adriana blushed and looked away as she spoke. Caleb? Wait... Wasn't that the kid in my dream?
   "Um, why?" I asked. her face was bright red.
   "I-I don't know, I just think we should!" I smiled.
   "Ohhh, I see," I said.
   "S-See what?"
   "Yeah, okay. I'll let you get away with this one. Sure, let's be friends with this guy." She gave me a sheepish smile and I just gave her that look that told her I could see right through her.
   "Thanks..."
   Once we got to class Adri walked straight over to Caleb's desk. I just stood to the side.
   "Hi, what's your name?" Adriana said.
   Oh my god...This is-! "Caleb..."
   "Well it's nice to meet you Caleb! I'm Adriana, and this is my fried Liliana!" I waved, although I noticed he never took his eyes off of Adri.
   "Umm...It's...nice to meet you..."
   What is this?!?! Everything in my dream happened in real life!! Wait... Then that means... Adri...

   Since that day, every morning I'd have "visions" that would come true later in the day. I couldn't control what I saw, I just did. They became longer, and in more detail. Eventually it got to the point where I saw everything coming. Also, one day I found out that I could hear peoples' thoughts every once in a while. I figure that dream was real. Every last bit of it. Which meant that Adriana was in danger, and it was my job to protect her.
   It was about three years later when a new girl showed up. Adriana reacted to her the same way she had with Caleb. She just had to be friends with her. But...this girl was different. I didn't see her coming! I hadn't seen her that morning and I couldn't hear her thoughts! Why...? Who- or what- is she?! Is she another protector? Or...is she here to kill Adri? I don't know... But I will find out. I will protect Adri. No matter what.

~Chapter 2~

   Frozen in place, I couldn't move. Actually, more like I wouldn't. I didn't want to move! I liked this.
   Caleb slowly pulled back. His face was only an inch from mine. "Sorry, I just...had to know," he whispered.
   "Oh, that's alright! It was actually kind of...nice." He smiled.
   "Yeah, it was. Well, I should get going now. Um...See you tomorrow," He said.
   "Yeah, see you tomorrow." He turned around and started to walk away. As I closed the window, I could have sworn I saw some weird girl with pink hair watching him, but when I looked back, she was gone.

   "Ai!!" I turned around to see Liliana running up to me.
   "Oh, hey- uh...Why do you have a camera?" Liliana was holding a big professional looking camera.
   "Because, I gotta get a picture of my new friend!! But beware, I'm going to take it sometime when you are not looking, and TOTALLY don't expect it!!!!"
    "Haha okay, whatever." Man, this girl's weird...
    "Come on, we should cross paths with Adri soon," she said.
    "Um...Liliana." I pointed up ahead and she gasped. "Isn't that her over there?" Adriana and Caleb were standing up ahead of us, kissing.
    "Oh my gosh, FINALLY!!"
    "What...?" I asked.
    "Those two have had chemistry since the day they met! I've been trying to push them together, but it took them THIS LONG!!! Oh well, yay! They're finally together!!! Come on, let's go the other way. We wouldn't want to disturb them!!" Liliana looked like she was about to burst with laughter.
    "Okay..."
    Liliana and I walked in silence for a little while, when suddenly Liliana stopped. When she spoke, there was a sort of eeriness to her voice. "We both know what each other is, so let's talk."
    "Okay, let's talk." Wow, she knows? Amazing, I didn't think she had already realized!
    "We're both Adriana's protectors right?"
    "No."
    "Oh...Then I guess I don't know what you are."
    "I am a ghost, or at least, that is what I would be called in this form. I was sent here to save Adriana from-"
    "Well she's already in good hands," Liliana interrupted. "So why don't you just leave?" Jeez, cold much?
    "I must stay, not only to protect her but also, to make her remember." Liliana looked confused.
    "Remember? Remember what?"
    "I see, you don't know everything. You only know about you."
    "Care to shed a little light on the situation?" She asked. I smiled.
    "Gladly."

~Chapter One~

   Adriana has always led a normal life. She is fourteen years old, goes to school, and has friends. Perfectly normal...right?

   "Hey, you're the new girl right?" The girl gave us a shy look.
   "Uhh, yeah..." She said. She had a soft voice, like that of a child. Is that what it's always like or is she just shy? This girl looked familiar for some reason. She had he brightest blue eyes I've ever seen and long white blonde hair. She had a sweet innocent face like a little girl. But I've never seen her before in my life...So why do I feel like I have to be her friend?
   "Nice to meet you! I'm Adriana," I said.
   "Yeah, and I'm Liliana!" We looked at her, waiting. When she didn't say anything Liliana said,"Well don't you have a name?" Liliana is my best friend. She has been for years. We've gone through everything together. Liliana has bright hazel eyes that almost look gold. She has short dark hair with long strands cut in the front to frame her face. She is always happy and hyperactive. She's a very outgoing girl and can sometimes seem crazy, but that's why I love her! Sometimes it seems like she's trying to protect me...It's like she's always on guard as if something's trying to get us.
   "Oh yeah...I'm Ai," the girl said. Ai...The name struck my memory for some reason, but I still couldn't remember...
   "Well Ai," I said.
   "We're your new friends!" Liliana and I said in unison.
   At the end of class that day we asked Ai if she wanted to see a movie with us. She said sure and that she'd meet us at the theater later. As Liliana and I were walking off the campus, I felt someone watching me. I turned around to see Caleb with his eyes on me. He quickly looked away. Weird...
   "Caleb!" I yelled as I waved at him. He looked up and smiled.
   "Oh, hey Adri!" he said as he walked toward me and Liliana. Caleb is my other best friend. When he first switched to Liliana's and my school three years ago, I immediately felt a connection to him. Just like Ai, I felt I had to be close to him, except...not as friends. Caleb has short blonde hair and light grey eyes. Usually grey eyes would be kind of scary and uncomfortable, but Caleb's are warm and kind. He's the nicest guy I've ever met and I've kind of...always...sort of...loved him. Honestly, I don't know when I first fell for him or realized I was in love...I guess, just from the first time I met him...I knew. But, here we are, three years later, and I'm still only friends with him.
   "Hey want to come to the movies with us?" I asked. Liliana got that look in her eyes that tells me she's thinking of something devious and she smiled.
   "Oh I don't-"
   "CALEB YOU MUST COME!" Liliana interrupted. We both looked at her in confusion. "We can't go to the movies without our best guy friend!!"
   Caleb smiled. "Okay, I'll come."
   That night we watched the new movie "Legend of the Full Moon". It's a strange story about a guy who finds himself in an alternate world full of magic and stuff, where of course he falls in love while trying to find a way back. Very strange...but pretty cool! We all said our goodbyes after the movie and went back home...or at least I thought we did...
   I heard a small tapping sound as I was doing my math homework. I looked up at my window to see Caleb standing on the other side of it. I smiled and opened the window. "Caleb, what are you doing he-"
   He kissed me.
   Caleb.
   Kissed me.

What is this?

Okay so, I've been writing this story that I've been putting on youtube in small videos under the title "Anime Love Story". I only chose that for the title because I was using anime pictures for it and I couldn't come up with a real name at the time since I didn't really know what it was going to actually be about at the time XD Well, I went back and watched all of my videos again and I was thinking "What the hell is this s***?" I made those videos a LONG time ago, when I was still new to making videos and they were just terrible. Plus I was new to writing so some of the stuff it said sounded stupid and overdone. So I decided I want to start over. All posts that go on this blog after this one will be parts of my story. I will put them up in the same order they are on on youtube. So I hope you enjoy!
