Lying in the streets....o.- (Open to anyone...I dun care who...)

Gin lie in the middle of the snow filled street motionless. His eyes were open but still, and watched the sky. His arms were layed out and an empty bottle of sake sat in his left hand. The people walking by were avoiding walking near him as they stared.

Raina ran down the street, she was running to collect Shinsake's home so she could go for her search for her brother, she'd done it every 4 months so it was almost a tradition. She was wearing her Knightlore uniform, Kanakosa robes she only wore for this occasion.

"Gotta huff... hurry! The blacksmith will close if I don't ARGH!" She yelped as she tripped over something half buried in the snow. She sat up and looked down, brushing off the snow. It was a man. Hey.. it was.. "Gi-Gintoki-san?.. Are you okay?"

Gin opened his closed eye in surprise at hearing his name. He sat up a bit to look at Raina who had tripped over him. "Oh...its the nice girl from the ramen stall...why are you in meh bathtub?" he said obviously still drunk. It was a regular part of Gin's day...wake up, eat, sleep, drink, sleep. Even though he was still drunk, he stood up and reached his hand out to her to help her.

Suddenly, a black dot appeared in the middle of the field. The black dot widened, forming a gap hole, and energy began to emit from it. A dark vibe and massive murderous intent was leaking from it. Jonas didn't even understand way. He wasn't trying to kill anybody. But the murderous intent rolled off of his body in waves. Suddenly a figure took a step out of the portal of darkness, and it closed slowly behind him. Jonas looked something off of a Halloween special.

Jonas was wrapped in mesh, thick, black bandages, wrapped around his whole being except his eyes. Spiked gray hair peaked out of the bandages every once a while, and Jonas' golden eyes seemed to be filled with darkness. Jonas took a step forward. "Raina.." He sounded depressed, and weak. But that's what happens when you give your soul up. He stopped about three feet infront of Raina, and held his hand out. "Come..this village is going to be destroyed soon. So..I want to take to safety.." He said, and then looked at Gintoki. "I'm sorry. I cannot take you. You are on your own." He noted. He looked back into Raina's eyes, as if pleading with her to come with him.

Gin looked at the kid he had also seen at the ramen shop. Something was really up with this kid. As if snapping himself from his drunken stupor, Gin's eyes grew life and the air became charged with negative charges. "Hey bud...what are you talking about? You need to control that feeling your giving...." he said staring at him. Even though he was serious, the last thing he wanted to do was fight for any reason...

Raina's eyes widen. Jonas was standing infront of her. She stepped back and covered her mouth. He was all wrapped up.. he sounded like his spirit was broken. "Jo-Jonas-kun What happened to you?1 I haven't seen you since.. What happened.." She took a step towards him, the evil aura almost felt like it was suffocating her.

"It doesn't matter..This village is going to be destroyed soon. Just come with me..I'll fill you in when we get there.." He muttered, and glanced at Gintoki. He looked him in the eyes, as if pleading for him to get out of here as well. He kept his arm outstretched, and looked Raina in the eyes. "Please, just come." He said, a little bit louder this time. Although they couldn't see his face, just through his eyes you could tell her was really sad. Raina was the only person he could save, the only person Shingami allowed. He knew that regardless he saved Raina or not, his soul was going to be taken from him. But whatever. It didn't really matter to him.

This feeling... he sounded like he was in pain.. Raina felt her chest tighten. She took another step towards him and looked at his eyes closer. "Jonas-kun.. are you hurt.." Her first true friend was standing infront of her, pleading with her to go with him.. The village is going to be destroyed? What did he mean?

She gulped and took another step. holding up her hand and she placed it on his. The strange feeling worsened, she felt dizzy. "Jonas.."

He grasped Raina's hand, and suddenly, another black hole appeared under the two. Jonas looked at Gintoki, and nodded. As if he was saying Escape alive.. Jonas nodded to Raina. "I guess..this is where we say good bye.." He let go of Raina's hand, and the black hole they were both seperated, forming two different holes. One leading into the shadow realm, which is the one Jonas was standing in and the other leading far away from the village. He sunk into the shadow realm. At least he knew his best friend was safe.

[EXIT TOPIC]

Gin watched and put his head down. "This village will be destroyed...？"he whispered to himself, holding the rusty old horn hanging from his neckalace. "I wonder...if she would be overjoyed to hear this..." Gin looked up with determination in his eye as he pulled the neckalace off and attached the horn to his head along with another rusty horn. "If what he says is true then...I will face punishment for that day by dying with the village I lied to!" he said recalling his past with the only women he ever loved. He kin of liked the idea of showing off and dying heroicly.
