**flashback from 10 years ago**

Ryuko's POV

Another stay in this hellish place! I hate this place! Why can I just not drift away from here?! This place sucks!

Suddenly I saw someone coming... Oh that redhead! Yes its Hisoka. He's chewing on that stupid gum again!

"Hey!" i said to him while he just gave me a blank stare while making a balloon out of his gum.

"Will you stop that?!" I said angrily but instead Hisoka blew it bigger and popped it infront of my face causing me more chagrin.

"Darn it Hisoka!" I snapped at him and he just smirked.

He sat beside me and throw away the now-then tasteless gum on the ground. He brought another one and chewed it on again.

"How long you've been chewing that one?" I asked out of curiosity although I already knew the answer.

"Hmm... Probably a couple of days. More like three days." he said innocently while blowing another balloon.

"Your life sucks!" I said out of annoyance.

"And so does yours..." Hisoka said.

I didn't said anything because he was right. My life really sucks; everyone and everything around me sucks. This whole place sucks! I just want to get a hell out of this place sooner. I feel like I'm suffocating. Thank goodness I still have Hisoka. However, i still want to be free from here. Am I really fated to stay here forever?! I won't give that a d*mn thing! Never!

"You're thinking deeply. As deep as the sea." Hisoka barged into my thoughts.

"Cut it out Hisoka! I'm thinking!" I snarled back.

He didnt say anything and just continue on chewing. There was a dead silence between the two of us, so silent that I thought nothing exists, not until Hisoka broke the stoic silence.

"You don't consider it a home dont you?" he asked.

"It's a trash!" i said with great disdain.

"This is where we live." Hisoka explained to me.

"I don't belong here..."

"This is Home..."

"This is not a home for me Hisoka. This is not where I belong! I belong out there, somewhere out there, beyond this place!" I said with tears in my eyes.

"Ryuko..."

"Just leave me alone!" And I pushed Hisoka away from me while I cry.

"Then i'll get going..." Hisoka said in an obvious sad tone.

I turned my backs on him as he was walking away. It hurts to see him like that  and i hate being hurt.

"...please don't leave me..."

I cried more because of what I've heard. Hisoka whispered that to the wind hoping that I could get his message.

"...I can't promise you that..." I whispered back.

"...I'm sorry but this place is not for me... I belong somewhere else..."

Then the wind wrapped around me as if it was sad for me. I dried up my tears and looked at the endless horizon.

"...my life awaits for me..."
