The Darkest HeartBeats

Act 1: Bleeding the truth

October 31. 1995 a beautiful baby girl was born. With the finest of brown curly hair and snowy white skin with rosy pink cheeks. The baby laid peacefully without a cry in her basket of comfy pillows and blankets. The women who had carried her made it to her destination of an old friend's front door step and left with blood gushing out her veins as she disappears into the mists of shadows. The next morning the Jensen's finds the beautiful baby girl on their front door step and automatically falls in love with the baby. When they unwrapped the child Mr. Jensen finds a golden dog tag with a name engraved into it.... "Yumiko" he read with a smile as he shook his head as he kept reading the name out loud. "Yumiko" he kept saying over and over. Soon enough the name stuck and became permeant for her. With excitement his wife takes off to buy and spoil the baby with things on her own. But when she got back with supplies, Yumiko wouldn't open her eyes nor eat anything. The Jensen's begin to worry... But never gave up hope. Till one day when Mr.Jensen's wife went to work as he stayed at home and prayed and pleaded to see the eyes of his baby girl to open. When suddenly Yumiko's ocean blue eyes opened as a cry began to burst out. The joy of Mr. Jensen became permeant for the rest of his life and spoiled her till his end days. When she was able to walk and talk he made sure that Yumiko was able to protect herself from any harm or danger. He taught her many things to life then just schools education.
When she turned sixteen her and her father set off to a camping trip for her birthday. But after that nothing's been the same because of the loss of Mr.Jemsen's life. Yumiko claims to remember nothing on the trip but losing a lot of blood that day.

*ring ring!* *ring ring!*

Mrs. Jensen: YUMIKO! Honey! Get the phone! It's your friend on the line!

Yumiko: HOLD ON! I'm doing something!!!!

Mrs.Jensen: Honey, please! If it was your father! (She stopped dead in her tracks and forgotten the words from her mouth. She picked up a broom and began to sweep. Yumiko looked down at her mother from the bannister with the sorrow in her eyes and blanked out in deep thought)

Five minutes later, Yumiko runs into her room to grab the phone.

Yumiko: Hello?!

Blare: It took you long enough! Girl you need to come down to the park like ASAP! There's something you really need to see! Like I swear If I were you right now! Booooy! I swear... (Yumiko interrupts.)

Yumiko: Wait! What? Hold up slow down, your talking to fast for me... What are you saying? What do you mean?

Blare: Just get your ass down here. (Blare hangs up)

Yumiko: (Yumiko quickly runs out her room and slips on her shoes left by the front door) BYE MOM!!!! I'm going out for a while I'll be back soon I promise!

Mrs.Jensen: (With a careless, blank look) Ok dear.

At the park.

Blare: Hey! Hey! (waving her arms like an idiot.)

Yumiko: Hey, Blare! (As she got closer to her friend, she began to have this confusing look. She notice that blare started to frown and point across the park, when Yumiko got to her she looked at where her finger was pointing at. And there she saw the most hurtful thing that has ever happened to her)

Jet who was her boyfriend and was always there for her had cheated on her with another girl name Kella at the park and kissed her in front of Yumiko's eyes. Blare tried to hold Yumiko back but the anger was to strong and ran after him anyway.

Yumiko: HOW COULD YOU!!! You promised!

Jet: Haha! I have no idea what your talking about. (Yumiko started to hit him on the chest as she pushed the girl away from him)

Yumiko: You lied! You lied to me! You said we were forever! How could you! I trusted you!

Jet: So what baby doll, there's enough Jet to go around (He grabbed Yumiko by the arm and tried to kiss her)

Yumiko: (pushes away) EWE! You pig! We're thorough! Don't you dare come near me! Ever! (she slaps his face with her hand and tries to make a break through, jet watches her run with a grin on his face)

Yumiko runs into the street without paying attention, her vision begins to water up in blurry tears when suddenly a voice screams out to her...

The boy: (skateboarding) LOOK OUT!!!

*Clash*

The boy: Would you look where your going!?! (Dusting himself off he looks down upon Yumiko. She was covered in scraps and cuts from the concrete. Also noticing that she was wearing a short dark blue skirt with black converses and a long sleeved black shirt. Her face was pure white and her hair was long thick curly brown mess. Her eyes were crystal blue with streaks of black mascara covering down her face. Wondering if he made her cry like that when he hit her... Or if she already has been hurt before he hit her. Either way his frustration towards her calmed down but when he did she already had gotten up and started to run once more.)

The boy: (Jumped back on his skateboard and ran after her this time, by the time he caught up to her she tripped again and fell on her knees) Are you ok?! The boy asked with a small smile... (Yumiko rubbed her eyes with her sleeve and begins in trying to smile again)

Yumiko: Yes of course I am why wouldn't I be?! (The boy gently grabbed her by her hands and helped her up, he stared into her eyes and then hugged her knowing that she needed to be held for comfort.)

The boy: My name is Jake Matthews. (Yumiko hugged tighter into his shoulders and cried again, when she stopped she looked up and told him her name was Yumiko.)

Jake was about six foot two with long brown curly hair like Yumikos and dark blue eyes, his skin was white like hers as well and his smile was a charm.

Jake: So.... Mind if I walk you home? I mean it is getting dark out and I wouldn't want a pretty girl like you walking home alone this fine night...

Yumiko: *giggles* no not at all.... I could use the company.

Jake: Oh really? I haven't notice.... So tell me something ...what made you so upset? (Yumiko in hesitation)

Yumiko: uh... Look I uh... I don't know you that well to tell you anything... My house is right here so ... Thanks for the walk home. See ya around.

Jake: wait ... It was only a question... I didn't (Yumiko shuts the door, and Jake skates home with a smile on his face)

During Jake's skateboard back home.

Jet: Hey boy! Hey you!

Jake pays no attention and continues to ride home.

Jet: BOY! I know you hear me! Get yo ass over here and let's talk boy to man! (Jake stops with an aura filled with despise)

Jake: What do you want man!? (With great hatred feeling he says as if they were fighting words) who are you and what do you want!? (Jet starts to laugh)

Jet: Don't play dumb with me. Stay away from her you got that! She's not yours! (With an anger tone he starts to laugh again)

Jake: I have no idea what your talking about.

Jet: Shut up, and listen and listen good! This is a major warning if you ever get near Yumiko again! I swear I'll personally come after you! You got that?! You....(Jake interrupts his threat with a snicker)

Jake: You think you can scare me? You better think twice then because it takes more then just a threat to get me really angry. And you don't wanna see me get angry. (Jake jumps back on his skateboard and leaves Jet in the darkness of nights)

Yumiko was in her room when she saw the whole scene between Jet and Jake as well as hiding behind the curtains of her room. And with the glow in her eyes she notices Jet looks up at her window. Yumiko swiftly backs away from the window and onto her bed. She looks at the picture of her and her dad on her end table she picks it up and smiles ... We were such a happy family with you, she thought. What happen to us...Tears fell on the picture so she held it tight in her arms pressed against her chest as she fell asleep.
