Hello Darkness, A New Years Day Fanfic

Part 7- You can run, but you can't hide...

Ali's POV

        Well, then. Did that asshole just slap me? I was seriously ready to cut a bitch when Nico pinned Charlie to the ground and was making his face squirt the red liquid. Yay! I lauged meniachally and kicked Charlie in his baby making area. The world did not need more little Charlies, anyway. I was having quite a ton of fun when Ash screamed, "Just stop!" I turned around to see a tear rolling down her cheek. What the fuck? I thought to myself. "Sorry, Ash," I muttered, looking down at the ground. "He deserved it, though." Admittedly, he did. "Yeah," Ash smiled a little bit, a smile that somehow made me more dissapointed in myself. Nico ashamedly fiddled with his braclets. 

            "Why did you do that, Ali? I mean, it's not even that you were beating him up- actually, that was quite funny. It's just that... well... you enjoyed it way too much." I  lightly kicked the ground with my foot, my black boots just barely skimming the ground. "Yeah..." I muttered. "You're right. He's still not getting an apology." I glanced disgustedly at Charlie. "I'm sorry I made you upset and uncomfortable, Ash." I really meant it, and she seemed to sense that. "Inflict all the pain on him that you want. Just don't laugh like a psycho murderer while you're doing it." Ash giggled lightheartedly. She seemed cool now, and I smiled back. 

             Now to deal with Charlie properly. I sauntered over to him and put a foot on either side of his legs. He was slumped against the wall, and I squatted down as to be eye-to-eye with the bastard. Gently, I raised his chin to eye level. He closed his eyes, clearly anticipating another strike.

        "Now, was that fun, sweetheart?" I kept a level gaze and sneered as he shook his head. "Goooooood," I smiled, as if talking to a small child. "Now, we won't be hitting Nico, Ash, or Ali anymore, will we, sweetheart?" He shook his head once again. "Gooooooood." I smiled sweetly as I stood up and walked over to Ash. "Now, sweetheart, be a good boy and clean yourself up. Then, please apply for a different dorm room. We need not be seeing you around here, correct?" I asked sternly. Charlie nodded his head weakly. Satisfied, I turned and walked back into my dorm room. 

         Ash walked in behind me, and to my surprise, laughed really loud. "That whole sweetheart thing was funny as fuck. Bet he never thought he'd be bossed around by some 'emo' chick." She made quotation marks in the air when she said 'emo'. I smiled gently. "Yeah. I've gotten pretty good at that whole sweet and spicy type thing, like that back there. I had to keep the pervs in my hometown... in line, let's say." Ash gave me a strange look. "What'd ya, grow up in the ghettos of Philly?" I shook my head. "Let's just say the ghettos came to me. Them swaggy cool cats all started hanging around my peaceful little neighborhood. I was... a little more than infuriated." 

        Just as Ash opened her mouth to respond, the door swung open. Nikki stood, breathless and panting, in the doorframe. I gave Ash a questioning look and raised my eyebrow at her. She shrugged, her eyes saying, Want me to ask? I pursed my lips and nodded. Ash walked over and grabbed Nikki''s arm. She dragged him over to her bed and plopped him down. She proceeded to sit down next to him. "Dude," she lightly shook him by the shoulder, "what's wrong?" 

        Nikki put up one finger and pulled out his phone. The texts that he proceeded to show us were disturbing. I scanned up and down, hoping this was some cruel trick that the band was playing. 

Hello, Mr. Misery! 

I know where your little... friends... are. 

That's right. Your bestie Ash and your little crrrruuuuusssshhhh Ali. 

They share a dorm. Ginger building. Floor 2. Room 5. 

And I'm going to take them from you. 

I'm gonna bleed them out all over the floor. 

Unless you stop me. 

Chills ran down my spine as another text popped up. I never thought I could be so scared by two words. 

I'm here. 

        Nikki launched into a short explanation. "I started getting these about an hour ago. I brought some guns, and knives. I'm here to protect you. Now, lock that fucking door and call the police." I nodded and proceeded to do so. Pulling out my phone, I dialed 911 as Ash locked the door. I set down on the bed as a reciever answered. "911 what's your emergency?" A voice answered calmly. All of the sudden, someone started banging on the door. 

        "Umm," I panted frantically, "my, erm, friend, started recieving anonymous threats to me and my roomie's safety. They said that whoever sent it was going to, and I quote, bleed us out all over the floor."The woman sighed. "Okay, sweetie," she soothed, "just stay calm. We've tracked your call, is the person there yet?" 

        Glancing at the door, I replied, "Presumably? They're trying to break the door down? We can hold down the fort till the cops get here." 

Just then, the door crashed open. "Second thought?" I whispered. "Maybe not."
