I walked out of the school. I guess it's time for me to go on my search for Andy. Where the hell would I even find him? I doubt I'll even find him. I just shrugged my shoulders and started walking. I started walking the long way home. I didn't feel like getting home so early today. I stared down at the ground and put my ear buds in my ears and started kicking rocks. Kiss was blasting in my ears and I was humming along with it. I tugged at the red and black bracelet on my wrist and smiled knowing that I may have some hope for finding Andy. Maybe this bracelet will help me some.

I am a complete and utter idiot. Why do I say this, you wonder? I should have never walked down an alley on the way home. I thought it would be a shorter path (and some luck at finding Andy) so I walked down it. Well it ended up there was some creepy man. He looked at me and smiled. I could tell by the look on his face he was drunk or high or something of that nature.

"Hey, pretty," he said showing his yellowing teeth in a wide grin.

I frowned and pulled my hoodie over my thick black hair. I walked past him and he grabbed my arm. Before I knew it he had me slammed up against a brick wall. My ear buds were lying uselessly on the ground.

My hood had fallen off my head and the man whispered in my ear, "You look nice, doll."

He ran his tongue down my neck and shivers went down my spine.

One thought ran in my mind, "Holy shit he's going to rape me and no one is going to know."

I tried to scream, but he covered my mouth and placed a knife up against my neck and whispered, "You scream, you die," the crooked grin had returned to his face.

He placed his lips onto mine and I bit his lip so hard that it started to bleed. That's when I felt him push the knife gently into my side. The blade ripping my shirt and sinking into my skin.

I yelped in pain and he whispered, "You asked for it."

I looked over and I saw someone tall standing at the end of the alley. It was someone in a trench coat. They stormed down the alleyway at lightning fast speed and ripped the guy off me. I shut my eyes in pain as my back scraped across the bricks and I landed on the rough ground. When my eyes were shut I heard a gurgle and a sharp snap and when I opened my eyes again I saw a red-eyed figure with his lips to the creepy man's neck. The figure threw the body onto the ground and looked down at me. I was looking at the creepy man, his eyes were now lifeless. The figure walked over to me and I looked into his red eyes.

"Ashes," Andy whispered his eyes quickly turning back to the beautiful crystal blue that I had always known.

"Andy..." I whispered and he picked me up off the ground just as I passed out.
