Rika sat alone on her bed, reading as she often did. She smiled and began humming a bright tune despite the down pour of rain at her window. She looked out the window a brief moment and saw red flashing lights. [i]Police? Probably, they've always got something going on.[/i] Then the TV got her attention, the weather girl predicted rain for the next few days. She smirked. [i]Cool, I get to go to my new school tomorrow in the rain![/i] She thought to herself excitedly. She always enjoyed walking around outside in the rain. As long as she didn't get a cold that is.

She turned back to her manga briefly before the news people began talking about disappearances. The victims being abducted from their own homes? A scary thought since the suspect seemed to have gotten away with it more than one time. They continued on saying something about a college student. And finally then ended off on something about a cult, odd. The story didn't worry her at all. She thought on the matter for a little bit before turning her attention back to her book.

As Rika read she also began to think about her new school. Would there be anyone interesting, nice, mean? [i]How cool would it be if we had like a foreign transfer student or something, I'd be all over that. Maybe we'll get a blonde girl from America, that'd be funny.[/i] She began thinking as she looked up at her ceiling fan. She dwelt on thoughts of school for a while longer. Eventually she returned her attention to reading, and finally went to bed several hours later.
