A girl holding a pocket manga in her left hand, her right hand held a firm grip on the handlebar of the bike. Slowly trampling on the pedals and looked up from the book every other second to keep an eye on the road. She was on her way home from the bookstore, happily with the new manga she just bought. Could not wait to get home, so she decided to read it on the way instead. It was tricky indeed, holding it and turning the page with only one hand. But she managed somehow.
She has been waiting to read the latest chapter, about the ninjas of Naruto, a very popular series that has been going on for a while. And it was at the peak of excitement, for the chapter was all about her favorite character, Sasori and his final fight. Although only playing a minor role and a supporting character of the story, she found him the most interesting. He was described as cold, impatient artist, a master of puppetry and a villain who has abandoned his village, but yet she could just not perceive him as an evil person.
She turned another page, and while reading she felt a huge disappointment when the story revealed that Sasori has lost his battle, and basically now, ruthlessly been killed off by the author... WHY? WHY? And such a sad thing, the way he has died. The girl thought for herself, if she would have been able to, she would have tried her best to prevent all of it. But of course, it is just a made up story. But her fantasies wanders off sometimes far, far away...
It was about to get dark soon and the street lamps were lighting up. Not too many people out there either since most were home around the dinner table at this time.
She was almost home, her apartment crossing a street, only a few blocks away now. Around the crossing, there seemed to be no one, without any delay, speeding up her bike she turned left. But suddenly, a strong flashlight blinded her eyes. She had no time to react when a car in its full speed drove around the corner and collided into her and her bike. The book slipped away from her hand as she fell onto the cold ground. Her whole body was in pain, and her consciousness slowly faded away into darkness.
Everything turned black.
