             I jumped from my seat and my chair clattered to the floor. My mother shot me an alarmed look. I ran to the hallway, stumbling into furniture as I went. My mother followed me into the hallway, calling my name. I ignored her, my mind was too focused on getting to Natsu's house as soon as possible. I threw on my shoes and wrench the door open. I ran out, not bothering to grab a jacket, the rain pelted my skin and the wind chilled my bones. The cold bit at me as I ran through our residential drive. I ran three blocks, then turned right sharply. I lost balance and my feet slipped out from under me, I stuck my arm out and right myself. I banked left ran another block before turning right, stumbling onto the main streets. The streets were crowed with people hidden under umbrella's, hurrying about their business, trying to get out of the rain as quickly as possible.  I pushed pass people, weaving my way in and out of the crowd. My feet occasionally landing in a puddle, but I didn't care. Please, let Natsu be okay. I begged to myself, oh please.

              I elbowed my up the street, pushing and shoving into people, earning rude looks and comments. I didn't look back. I didn't care about them. I only cared about Natsu. After running couple blocks, I turn left off the main street, into another residential area. I crossed-over to the right hand of the street, approaching Natsu's apartment complex. I zigg-zagged in between the buildings and flew past the garden center. I finally reached building C. My hand gripped the stair-well, using my momentum, I swung myself around and on to the stairs. I stampeded up them and raced down the walk way, my arms pumping wildly. I skidded to a stop in front of door, my hands grabbing the door frame to balance myself. I slammed my fist on the door repeatedly, until it swung open, my fist raised in a mid slam. Natsu's Mother stood in front of me. Her face looked surprised and concerned, mainly surprised. I knew how crazy I must have looked; standing there in the door way, soaked from the rain, still dressed in my night clothes, and out of breath,

"I need to speak with Natsumori," I demanded in between breathes, "It's urgent- I need to know if he's okay."

"Why? What happened?" she asked, her eyebrows furrowing together.

"WehadthisfightlastnightandisaidthingsididntmeanISHEHEREORNOT?!" I rushed my reply, raising my voice at the end.

"Woah!" She threw here hands up defensively, "Calm down, child. Take a breathe and tell me again, but slower." I groaned. She's wasting my time!

"I said, we had a fight last night. I said things I didn't mean and I need to tell him. Is he here?" I repeated.

"I'm sorry, but he's not here, Emi," she replied. UGH! Couldn't you have said that in the first place! I snapped mentally before responding.

"Where did he go?"

"Left a few minutes ago for the academy."

"But his class didn't meet today," I puzzled out loud.

"Oh, then I don't know where he is," she replied too nonchalantly for mother. This didn't help me at all. Where the hell is he! Where are you! Damnit. Come on, Emi think. Where would he be, I asked myself, raking my hands through my hair.

"Is everything okay?" Natsu's mother asked breaking my concentration.

"No, just shut up!" I snapped, She stood there silently staring at me, shocked by my response. And hit me again. I WISH YOU WOULD JUST JUMP OFF A CLIFF. The cliffs, oh my god the cliffs. I let a frustrated scream out and spun around running towards the stairs. I felt guilty about how I acted with Natsu's mom, but I can apologize to her later. First, I need to find him. I flew down the stairs, taking the steps two at a time. My feet pounded on the concrete, as I landed on the last step. I ran in the direction of the cliff side.

        I felt numb. I was unaware of my surroundings, things passed by me in a blur. The rain was relentless; it continued pouring down, blinding me as I go. I could barely see. I stumbled back on to the main street this time it considerably less crowded. I tore doown the road. The whole time I just kept begging for Natsu to be okay. he buildings be came less crowded together, giving away to the out skirts of town. The breeze became saltier and the wind stronger, now that there were less buildings. My legs ached from the cold and running all this way, so fast but, I kept going. I had to make it. At some point the paved street gave away to uneven dirt road and there where no more buildings just fields of tall, overgrown grass on both sides. I could hear the ocean, it's waves crashing furiously against the land. The road inclined, a sign I was closer to the cliff sides. I ran up not stopping, even when I could barely breathe. In my blinded haste, my foot stumbled into a pothole and my body came crashing down.

           Crack! My head hit the ground so hard it rebounded up and smacked again. I groaned in pain, my eyes wincing. I moved my hands quickly, one was scraped from falling and other was swelling with bruises from knocking on the door so violently, and pushed my body off of the ground. I stood and continued on, but more cautiously about were I stepped. I could see it. Twenty feet ahead, on the right side, was a patch of trampled grass. The trail to the cliffs. I veered off and pick up speed as the trail slanted down to the side. The grass cleared away and beyond the cliff edge I could see the ocean. I could also see Natsu.
