My heart was pounding so much that I thought it was going to jump out of my chest and run away itself. A gun was pointed straight at Seth's head, and the guy who was holding it looked like he would have no remorse if he pulled the trigger. Looking within the man's bright red eyes, a certain coldness could be found. To be quite honest, just the color of his irises was enough to send a shiver down my spine.

" Please, stop! He's innocent!" I screamed.

" Hush it, Kiyano," He said, his index finger still on the trigger.

It was as if everything was happening in slow motion. I was waiting for the man to gently press down on the trigger and for a bullet to fly out of the gun and hit Seth, but to my surprise nothing happened. What did catch me by surprise was that the man flew back on top of my countertop and hit his head on one of my cabinets. I noticed that a dagger slit the palm of his hand. Seth sat there in shock, just staring at his surroundings. Grabbing Seth by the hand, I shot a look at him.

" C'mon! We have to go Seth!"

He swiftly stood up and followed my lead, but as we went to run out of the door, we both stopped. A sudden familiarity washed over me as my eyes computed the sight before me. A familiar face stood in the doorway of my house. As I quickly snapped out of my daze, I noticed that the front door had been kicked down and that he was standing on it. His sky blue eyes locked with mine for a good second.

"Obviously, I came just in time," he said sending me a quick, warm smile.

I was awestruck because standing right in front of me was the boy that I had dreamt about the other day.

"Kratos...." I said. When I looked at him, the first thing that I noticed was that he was strikingly gorgeous. He had bright blue eyes that twinkled when he spoke. He had brown locks and a perfectly chiseled chin. He was attractive in my dream, but boy was he was even better looking in person.

He smiled and said, " I've finally found you KL Kiyano."

He then ran over to the kitchen, approaching the man who was going to attack me. I stood in front of the detached door, baffled. He knew my name. How did he know my name if I had never seen him in person?

Kratos approached the man who was now knocked out.

" KL, you know that guy?" Seth asked, his eyebrows furrowed in confusion.

" No...not exactly," I responded to Seth. This only made his forehead crease in confusion.

" Then how does he know your name?"

" Seth, it's a long story that I really don't have time to explain right now."

" Alright, but we need to go. Like now," Seth said.

" But we can't leave Kratos here alone!" I blurted out, unintentionally.

" Yeah, let's just put all of our lives in jeopardy here for a random guy that just invaded your property! Plus, he looks like he came straight out of Final Fantasy or something! We don't know this guy! He could be crazy!"

" Seth he just saved our lives!"

"KL we have to go!"Against my will, Seth took my hand and we went to go out of the door. We were swiftly stopped when someone was coolly leaning against the naked doorframe.

" Well, well, well. Is this the Breaker that Jagger was talking about?"

Seth pulled me behind him, guarding me. " Who are you?"

The boy smiled, " I'm Nicco. Jagger's best friend."

"Great. Everybody around here is crazy. This is just crazy," Seth said, glancing back at me
