A fic in which Tatsuki is invited to Ichigo and Orihime's wedding post-canon and just. Takes it all in. At what could've been, imagining herself in Ichigo's place. But such is life, and she's not going to get in the way of things. Princesses always go for the knight, never the dragon. So it goes.
After a while she leaves the venue. Chizuru's out there, and under all that clownery she can tell something's up; she's not quite the fool she paints herself out to be. They shoot the breeze as the night wheels high overhead. No one's noticed they've left. Ichigo and Orihime haven't noticed (the guys, however, might have - Chad and Keigo and Mizuiro, all quiet glances and subtle, gentle words with hidden meanings).
The night is young. There's a bar down the street that's open 24/7 that always has baseball games running on the wireless TV sets - the one with the pool tables and poker machines. The wet bar isn't anywhere near fancy as the ones the hall's serving, but they're delectable and succulent in their own way. Chizuru suggest they go there, unwind (doesn't say, merely shows in the way the streetlights glint off her glasses, it's to help Tatsuki get her mind off the wedding, and all the possibilities that could have been).
It doesn't sound like such a bad idea. Not a bad idea, at all. Tatsuki agrees and goes with her.

Started watching Bleach again as an adult because I saw a 100k+ fic and decided that in order to read it, I needed to understand the canon. Once I actually got into the canon I fell immediately in love with Urahara and got sucked into a totally different ship. This is that ship. And since I'm a firm believer that once you read over 100 fics for a ship in less 3 months, you need to make a list of your favouriters, here we are!
@uraharaichigo's current top 25 URAICHI FIC.
breaking and entering is a crime, you know (but i'd forgive you of anything) by Excalis | T, 4k | “Why do you keep breaking into my house?” Ichigo complained, in lieu of a proper response. It was best to not feed Kisuke’s ego. “I was sexiled from my own home,” Kisuke sighed.
Your Humble Offering (In The Mouth Of This Abandoned Church) by RayShippouUchiha | M, 10k | Ichigo, the man who took Kisuke’s crumbling self into both of his hands and pressed the pieces back together with a gruff sort of gentleness, dies.
the shore at dusk (there you'll find my heart) by Starsilver | M, 5k | Ichigo dreams of the heartbeat pounding of the waves and the taste of brine on his lips.
Alchemy by athena_crikey | G, 22k | Shiba Ichigo leads a boring, blameless life as head administrator for the Shiba Clan. Until one day, a mysterious repair shop moves in next door.
Brightest by athena_crikey | T, 8k | “You fill your life with colour and noise and friendship, Kurosaki-san. It’s a very impressive trait. You turn enemies into friends. I… I turn friends into enemies.” Urahara’s still smiling; bitter, brittle.
Madness of Monday by NotLonelyJustAlone | G, 7k | How… how… how? How do you explain ‘I’ve either gone mad or I’m reliving the same week and I don’t feel mad and everything happens the same but I remember it all and I can’t can’t can’t keep doing this please help please please please because even if I’m not mad already I can tell the road there is definitely shorter today than yesterday?’
Standing Over Him by NotLonelyJustAlone | T, 10k | “And you, Kurosaki Ichigo, are mine.” Ichigo without his powers, but not totally alone.
Bureaucracy Hell by Aliendel | G, 8k | Reizei Ariko was considered old for a shinigami. Useless in a fight, she’d been relegated to an administrative position at the Academy. She was content with her mostly monotonous life dealing with arrogant nobles and stupid brats. Until an orange-haired young man barged into it and turned her life upside down like he had so many others.
Fashion Faux Pas? by celestivian | E, 20k | Ichigo has a big party to go to, and nothing to wear. Out of desperation, he seeks out Kisuke for help. Kisuke, of course, delivers.
You Don't Have a Soul, You Are a Soul (You Have a Body) by FeelingFredly | G, 2.6k | Kisuke has a disregard for his own safety a mile wide and it's enough to drive Ichigo mad. This time he finds the shopkeeper unconscious but not alone, and the woman with him has some very interesting things to say.
Car by CheshireSense (cywscross) | G, 4k | Urahara Kisuke handles pursuit of a love interest about the same way he handles everything else: with needlessly convoluted plans carried out in the most roundabout way possible because straightforward just won't cut it for him. He's lucky Ichigo's used to it by now.
Guard by CheshireSense (cywscross) | T, 18k | Later, Kisuke will remember and tease, "Were you really obsessing over me, Ichigo? Oh my, I have my own personal stalker!", and get an elbow to the face for his troubles.
Skeletons in the Closet (and flowers by the window) by Sky_King | T, 51k | Kisuke has a plan. He always has, and he’s very good at seeing it to completion no matter what. But as he grooms that noble boy into the perfect weapon to defeat Aizen, he begins to regret ever pursuing this idea.
A Deep Drink by Mousieta | T, 9k | Ichigo is a grad student who needs help writing his thesis. And Kisuke…. well no one has ever asked Kisuke what he needs. Does he even know? Does it matter?
i've always been this way (please don't scream) by Mister_Fox | T, 5k | “Ever wanted to snatch a pigeon out of the sky and eat it?” Kisuke asks idly.
Fade to Crimson (I know your name) by Starrie_Wolf | T, 8k | Ichigo’s a relative newcomer at the Seireitei Shatterdome, but he’s settled into the steady pace of his work fine, even made some friends. There’s just one thing.
what is reality? (what is a lie?) by Starrie_Wolf | T, 15k | Sequel to what is a gift? (what is a sacrifice?). Kisuke promises to restore Ichigo's powers after Ichigo makes a sacrifice he doesn't expect, and this changes things when Ginjou starts sniffing.
Equilibrium Position by Silmariën (Starrie_Wolf) | E, 15k | He can't believe he has Aizen to thank for getting them together. Can you send fruit baskets to Mugen?
Feeling Horny by Silmariën (Starrie_Wolf) | E, 3k | When Urahara shoved Ichigo to Hirako to learn how to control his inner Hollow, Ichigo thought it meant Urahara wasn’t Hollowfied. He was wrong.
Ficlet February by nahnahnahnah | G, 20k | And he had faith, he did, that Ichigo would defeat Yhwach. That was a startling enough realization, that he would have faith in anyone other than maybe Yoruichi and Tessai.
Patience by floweringbloom | E, 4k | Ichigo needs to have more patience, but he's very good at being Kisuke's distraction.
Remember Me (I won’t wait) by fw_feathers (callmeren) | G, 6k | On November 6, 2022, 13:00, the world’s first VRMMO game «Brave Souls Online» officially opened its servers. On November 6, 2022, 15:37, Kurosaki Ichigo put on his NerveGear and entered «Brave Souls Online». On November 6, 2022, 17:30, the game of death began.
Every Second (I’ll be running) by fw_feathers (callmeren) | M, 25k | “You didn’t tell us your zanpakuto spirit is a giant sea serpent, Ichigo-san,” Kisuke says mildly. “Ah,” Ichigo says, shading his eyes with a hand. “Should I have mentioned that?”
For You, My Dear, I’d Wait Forever by PhishyFish | T, 27k | Everybody knew about the 12th’s lieutenant. After all, he made quite the striking figure. Wild orange hair, a permanent scowl, and power that clung tightly to his skin, it really was not an exaggeration that everyone knew him, or at the least, knew about him.

Klaus Hargreeves X reader
I'm really gonna try for you
---------
I just got this idea out of no where so, you know oh well!
Warnings: I wouldn't say anything, but if you do let me know!fluff, fluff, fluffy
Sorry for any errors! Remember requests are open, so just ask if you want one!
Sorry, now enjoy your reading!
-------------
You were much too shy to say anything, but Vanya and Allison saw the way you looked at him. They saw the way you blushed when he sat next to you. Finally the two girls got you alone, of course Vanya is quite soft spoken and Allison is not afraid to speak her mind. But they both knew that they had to say something to you. 
"Ok (y/n), spill. You love Klaus don't you?" Allison questioned you with a smug smile on her face. Your eyes widened and you became quite flustered. Vanya just gave you an encouraging yet sympathetic smile. 
Quickly you stood up and shut your bedroom door. "Guys, no I don't. Why do you even think that?" You tried to sound as serious as possible through your nerves. "Well, we just see the way you look at him and you blush whenever he's around you." Vanya said, her voice quiet but loud enough to hear her clearly. Allison nodded eagerly before adding to what her sister had just said. "Really, you don't hide it very well. Not from us at least." She smiled at you. 
Your jaw dropped slightly and you opened and closed your mouth like a fish out of water. You tried to come up with the right words to say, trying to deny what they said. The smug smile on Allison's face, and the soft look of encouragement on Vanya's made you break. 
"Ok,ok I do.. I love Klaus.. I know-i know that it's stupid but I can't help it. He's so funny, and if you really hung out with him and just talked you would see how sweet he is. His eyes, gosh his eyes are this beautiful candy apple green. You know sort of like a caramel apple..." you trailed off thinking about how beautiful his eyes really are. 
Your two sisters looked at each other knowingly, and snapped you out of your trance. "Hey (y/n), come back to the ground please." Allison said. Hearing her voice you snapped your head up to look over at them. Immediately you blushed, and played with your fingers. "There's no reason to be embarrassed (y/n) it's just me and Allison." Her statement caused you to look at them shyly and sigh. "I'm sorry, I just I don't know what to do.. I'm scared that he won't see me the way I see him. Or that maybe I'm just not enough for him.. I'm just scared." Your voice softly broke through the silence in the room. 
Sitting down criss cross on the floor in front of your bed, you picked at the rug. "No way, you have nothing to be scared of. I completely understand why, but you would never not be enough for him. Plus, you don't notice the way he looks at you." Allison spoke up playfully nudging your knee with her foot. "Really, it's sort of annoying how much he looks at you. He just stops and stares for a while." 
You look at them with wide eyes, "you have got to be kidding me, are you serious?" They both nod at you with big smiles. You smile at them excitedly. 
"Be sure to pay attention to him (y/n), we'll be here keeping an eye on things." Allison winks, Vanya smiles and gives a small laugh. You blush again and say goodbye as they walk out the door. 
Throughout the next few days you began to pay more attention to your best friend. You caught his glances at you whenever you laughed at something he said or did. 
A few days later, the girls were in your room once again and you were telling them all about how you've caught his stares at you. You were so happy, and Allison and Vanya couldn't have been more excited for you. Until you heard a knock at your door, then Klaus walked in "Now (y/n) I'm stealing you away!" He exclaimed loudly while scooping you up and walking out of the room.``klaus what on earth are you doing?!" You laughed and clung onto him so you wouldn't fall. He smiled at you "well I wanted to spend time with my best friend because she's been taken away from me by our two sisters. I do not appreciate it." He says with a pout. Walking into his room he plops you on the bed and gently flops down with you, laying his head on your tummy. You blushed and smiled down at him softly. His eyes were closed and his arms were around your waist. You ran your fingers through his messy curls, and he sighed. "(Y/n), you know I've really been trying.." Klaus' voice was softer than usual and slightly muffled due to his face being nuzzled into your shirt. You looked down at him slightly confused, until it dawned on you. Klaus is trying to get sober. "Oh you have, haven't you love.." you said using the nickname you called him only when alone. He looked up at you with those beautiful green eyes, and those long dark lashes. "I really have (y/n), for you.. i want to be enough for you.." his voice is soft, but serious. 
You had an incredulous look on your face.
Sitting up quickly, he sat up too. You pulled him towards you so he had one leg on either side of yours. Your hands on both of his cheeks. "What do you mean Klaus.. you're more than enough for me. I'm so incredibly proud of you for doing this." His eyes were wide as they darted around your face. "What?.." Klaus was so close you could feel his breath fan against your lips. "You're more than enough for me, am I enough for you?" Your voice was soft as your thumb traced his cheek softly. 
All of sudden he rolled over and took you with him so you were in the same position he was. You looked away shyly, and your hands moved to play with the fabric of his shirt. You've always loved the way he dressed...
"Look at me (y/n).. please.." he said in a pleading voice. His hand came up to hold your cheek. Bringing your face up to have you look at him. "You know, I've always wondered if I was enough for you.. I look at you and I see a beautiful, smart woman..." "this doesn't sound like the Klaus i know.. are you ok?" You ask, stopping your fiddling with his shirt and resting your palms against his chest. "No, Ben I'm not gonna say that.. ok just no.. ugh Ben stop." He complains and tries to shoo away his brother. You just smiled and chuckled softly leaning your head against his shoulder. "That's my Klaus." You whispered into his neck. "I just want you to know that... you're the most beautiful and kind person I know... I want to be good enough for you, I want to be able to love you right.. like you deserve.." you lifted your head up and looked at him with those kind eyes he loved oh so much. "You know, even if Ben did ruin this little moment... I can't even to begin to tell you how much I want you to love me... you're more than good enough for me.. I want you, just you..." his hand moved to the back of your head and gently pulled you forward. His lips met yours, this is what you've wanted for so long.. it is so much better than you ever thought it would be. His hands drifted to your hips and tugged you closer, your hands wound in his curls. His scruff scratched at your skin softly, a feeling you've been dying to know... he pulled away and kept his forehead against yours, both of you breathing quite heavily. Your eyes remained closed as a smile placed itself on your kiss swollen lips. In this time Klaus decided to really look at you from so close up. He's never been this close to you before... his eyes wander over your features and he smiles and gently nudges your nose with his. Opening your eyes you sigh and press a small peck on his lips.. "(y/n) Darling... you're more than enough for me. I'd do anything for you. I'll get sober for you I'll try I swear it." He said his voice was sincere. "I know you will love.. I know you will."
He pulled you down next to him on the bed and held you close.. "finally, I've been watching you pine over each other for years.. just don't make me need to bleach my eyes." Ben said, and Klaus just gave a playful glare. "We'll make sure to make you bleach your eyes Ben." He said in a snarky tone, playfully blowing him a kiss. You laughed. "We love you too Ben." 
Klaus watched Ben leave, and placed a kiss on your head. "Now I can steal you whenever I want." "Of course you can my love."

[Based off my Number Scenarios 11, 13, 15, & 27]
× × × × × × × × × × × × × × × × × × × × × × × × × ×
I was always told the nights of Seoul were the most dangerous and brutal time to be out. I never believed that. I found them to be serene and quiet, lacking the crazy, packed people coming and going and the loud honking of cars. I didn't realize that the quiet was simply a disguise used by those who knew how to maneuver through the city without notice and commit crimes that show up in the headlines of papers the next morning. And I didn't realize that I'd become part of those headlines.
It was the first actual warm night of the year. The dwindling winter being replaced by spring was apparent, there was even a slight buzz that singled spring rain. I'd just wanted to get some Happy Hour pancakes as a nearby diner. They were always half off on account of the time being so late and no one was really out and about as of the crime rate being high. Of course I was nieve. Sure I'd read about the tragic deaths and disappearances on the news. But I always thought 'that could never happen to me'. I was wrong.
The diner was mainly emptied save for a couple of college kids pushing some more hours of studying before finals. I'd eaten my pancakes and chatted with Hoseok, the only employee crazy enough to enjoy night shifts. He went on endlessly about his day and the different people coming in and I just smiled and nodded and put in my two cents. I just enjoyed hearing him talk, he always seemed to get excited for the smallest things people pass up on.
It was nearing one in the morning when I finally left the Diner, promising Hoseok I'd be there for breakfast the following morning. The air was warm and slightly humid and felt good against the bare skin of my arms. I put my hands in my pockets and turned the street corner towards my apartment. I walked passed an alleyway, and heard a commotion behind me, muffled grunts and a loud bang of a trashcan. I frown, turning around and glanced warily towards the opening of the alley. Every instinct told me to run, but I was always naturally curious, and it sounded like someone was being hurt. I approached the left side of the building, gripping the brick walls to peer around the corner, just a peek. To see what was going on.
There were three men, all dressed in black. One with a shock of bleach blonde hair, two others with black hair. They were kicking kicking a fourth man on the ground, stomping into his body and cries were muffled by a bandana shoved into his mouth. My eyes widened, and I covered my mouth to hide a gasp at the sight. The blonde grabbed the beaten man by his shirt and slammed him into the wall with such force I thought the building gave a small shake, but it was only me. I was so frozen stiff with fear for this poor man. The blonde pulled a gun from his hip and pressed it to the man's throat, a cold smirk on his face.
"Give a message to Anjo for me. This is what happens when I'm shorted. I want what I paid for, and then some to repay for this insult. I won't be this lenient again" He growls in a deep voice. The man nodded mutely, and the blonde stepped back, and with no one holding him uptight, the assaulted man fell to ground in a lump.
One of the black haired men took a drag of a cigarette, and flicked the ashes onto the fallen man and let out a chuckle. The blonde patted the two on the shoulder
"Come on let's go. Namjoon will want to hear our progress report" He says, and they turn for the entrance. I backed away from the wall, just as they came under the light of the street lamps. Of course they immediately saw me, and by the look of fear and shock on my face they all realized what I'd just seen. The blonde let out a angry cry and I turned heel and took off down the street.
My feet slammed on the pavement and I could hear the stomping of the men behind me. I turned down the block then cut through a small park. Trees rushed passed me as I tried to dodge their persuit, and I looked behind me to see that they were hot on my heels. Of course this meant I didn't see what was in front of me until I ran into the fence that enclosed the park. I let out a gasp of pain and I fell backwards and onto the ground, the breath knocked out me. They were on in an instant, grabbing me and dragged me to my feet. The blonde stood in front of me, surveying me. The one to my right spoke up
"What do we do Yoongi? She saw us" He said. The blonde, I guess the one called Yoongi, watched me carefully.
"We'll take her to Namjoon. It's his call" He says slowly, his face I passive.
"Please don't tell him" I begged, trying to tug out of my captor's grips. "I won't tell anyone"
"They always say that, and then they turn around and rat to the cops. No, we'll take to to our boss. It's his call" Yoongi says, and gestures for the other two to bring me to their van.
From then I was blindfolded and cuffed. I sat between two of them. Fear ate away at me and I shivered to imagine what their boss Namjoon would do to me. From the stories in the papers I've read, the mafia were never soft and forgiving. Witnesses were left in gutters and in dumpsters. This thought didn't settle my nerves and I was on the verge of tears.
They put me in a room, tied me to a chair and took the blindfold off. The room was dimly lit and there were mysterious stains on the floor, dark red and looked suspiciously like blood.
"Is that blood?" I whispered, horror in my tone.
"Among other things" Yoongi says, sounding bored. My eyes widened and I didn't dare speak again. A knock on the door signaled a fourth person had joined the three. When he walked in, my breath was taken away. His tan skin contrasted with his bleached hair. His suit was sharp his brown eyes were curious. His gaze was immediately on me, and he straighten up.
"Leave us" He says firmly and the three leave without a word. My eyes went to the floor, to the probable blood stains, which didn't help my heart rate. I could feel it in my throat, and I became very aware that this was the leader and then of all the things he could do to me. Tears welled in my eyes, that this may be the last night I'll ever live.
Gentle fingers pushed my chin up and I met soft eyes.
"Pretty girls shouldn't cry" He says, wiping away a tear that had escaped down my cheek. I whimpered at his touch, and he gripped my by my chin. "Yoongi tells me you saw the little show earlier tonight"
"I didn't mean to, really. I was walking home and heard noises in the alley" I mumble
"You should have kept walking princess. Save you some few trouble you've gotten yourself into" He says
"Now you tell me" I say, a slight whimper in my you voice. Namjoon nods, leaving away from me. He folded his arms over his chest, a thoughtful look on his face.
"Now I just have to decide what to do with you" he says, and my eyes widened.
"Please don't kill me" I whisper desperately. "I'll do anything, I swear" Namjoon raised his eyebrows.
"Anything?" He hummed, and I nodded "Well, how about a date then?" He asks. I stared at him in shock.
"W-What?" I gaped.
"You said anything. Let me take you out" he says.
"You don't want me to have sex with you? Or blow you or anything?" I say. He snorts
"We just met sweetheart. I'm not that type of guy. Let me take you to dinner and I'll let you live."
"O-Okay" I say, and Namjoon's face split into a wide smile, flashing his dimples happily.
"Excellent"
× × × × × ×
That was over a year ago. Namjoon drove me home that night, and picked me up later that day for a date. He was dressed casual, a button up blue shirt and black slacks.
"Where are you taking me?" I'd asked as he led me to a nice looking car.
"Dinner and a movie if that's alright with you kitten" He said, opening the door for me like a proper gentleman
The restaurant hadn't been overly fancy, Namjoon admitting that he had wanted to take me somewhere fancy, but his funds were short this month due to a few problems he didn't disclose. I told him that it was quite alright, flashy things made me uncomfortable, especially in the beginning of a date.
He had asked me questions, about myself and your hobbies, what classes I'd taken in college, small things. He listened intently, and even looked like he was interested in what I'd had to say.
"I wanted to do music," Namjoon told me when I'd'd ask what he did while in college . "But everyone seemed to tell me it was a dead end, so I dropped it" he shrugged, taking a bite of his food. I frowned, eyebrows nitting together.
"You shouldn't have given up if you wanted to do it" I say and he shrugs again
"It's okay. If I hadn't had dropped out, then I wouldn't have ended up taking the path I did. And I wouldn't have had the opportunity to meet" he smiled softly, and my cheeks flushing bright pink
"Namjoon we've only just met" I tried to argue "In the most weirdest of circumstances" His dimples came out as he grinned
"And I like you already. I consider myself lucky I got to take you out" he says, a tad but smugly
"You blackmailed me, remember?"I point out
"I don't see you complaining though" he retorts, and he had me there.
The movie wasn't some cheesy Rom Com or horror movie tatic to comfort the scared girl. It was an action comedy, right up my alley. It was like he knew me already. I enjoyed the movie and raved about it afterwards when Namjoon was driving me home. The entire time Namjoon remained quiet, a smile on his face as he listened to me. I had smack his arm lightly,
"Are you even listening?" I laughed and he smiled lightly
"I'm hanging on every word" He says truthfully
Hands wrapped around my waist, startling me and I dropped the dishes I'd been washing. There was deep chuckle from behind me, and a warm kiss was placed on my neck.
"Did mean to startle you kitten" he hummed. I smile, turning around in his arms and pressed a kiss to his awaiting lips. He pulled me closer and nuzzled into my neck when we pulled away. "What were you so deep in thought about?" He asked
"How we met" I say and he laughed, pressing another kiss into my neck
"I remember that. You were downright terrified and you looked so innocent and cute" I huff against his chest and felt the vibrations of a chuckle. He pressed a lingering kiss into my hair, and I knew that meant he was going out again.
"I'll be home late" he says, his words muffled by my hair. I frown, looking up at him.
"I thought you had the night off?" I ask, a bit disappointed. He'd been so busy lately and while I appreciated and respected what he did for a living, but I missed his warmth at night.
"I did but something came up. Anjo wants to have a.... calm discussion" His voice turned cold and I raise my eyebrows.
"Namjoon that worries me. There have been several disappearances as of late. Remember Taehyung was almost taken by his thugs just the other night." I say in protest. He sighs, fingers playing with the hem of my shirt and he nods.
"That's why we're meeting up. Come to some kind of agreement and get his goonies off our back. They did a number on Jimin, he's so jumpy now" My mind went to after Jimin had been taken and questioned a month ago. He was dumped behind my favorite Diner, bruised and bloody and shaking. He'd had a long cut down his face, a scar he'd probably have forever.
"I remember" I mumble. "You better be safe Kim Namjoon or I'll go in there myself and give Anjo a piece of my mind" I threaten, and Namjoon laughs, placing a kiss on my lips
"That's something I'd love to see. We'll be okay kitten don't you worry" We kissed, his head tilting to get a better angle. I let out a soft moan and he grunted, his hands gripping my hips. A knock on the door caused us to pull away, and a second later Yoongi and Jin walked in. Yoongi smirked when he saw us and Jin blushed darkly. "Bye kitten. I'll be home soon" Namjoon murmurs, before leaving with the other two.
I stepped out of the shower, wringing my hair dry and searched for my pajamas. I was worried for Namjoon, he'd been gone a couple of hours and while I knew that it may take longer, until he came home.
I slipped on one of his t-shirts and a pair of shorts before climbing into bed. I scrolled through my phone, trying to pass the time before I was tired enough to fall asleep. A creaking noise caused me to freeze. I stared at my closed door, and heard another creak. I turned off my phone, hand slipping under the mattress for the gun Namjoon had put down there in case I needed help. I gripped it, flipping off the safety and tried to calm my pounding heart.
The creaks grew louder, mixed with the sounds of heavy footsteps. The door slammed open and I screamed, aiming the gun and squeezing the trigger. The bang was loud, and jolted me off the bed. The man gave a cry, and clutched at his shoulder. Two more men came in, and I aimed at them. One was quicker, and grabbed my wrist and twisted it until I cried out and dropped the gun. The other came and grabbed me around during the middle and I kicked and screamed, scratching at his back. He hissed in pain and I kneed him in the gut and it sent us both crashing to the ground.
I shoved past as one tried to grab me and I took off down the hall and out the broken down front door. I heard thuds and curses as I knew they were following me. I ran down the steps two at a time, and I ran out the apartment lobby. A dark van was parked there and I skidded to a halt, the bottoms of my feet scratching against the asphalt. Two more men got out of the car, and lunged at me. They grabbed me and I fought against them, biting and scratching and raising bloody murder. In the distance I saw a familiar figure walking down the road and I screamed as they shoved me into the van. The other three men clambered in after me and the van took off with a screech down the road.
