Yume's sight slightly regained and for some reason, could see herself falling in a deep dark abyss. Her body felt heavy and hot, like she was a meteor shower on fire. She looked up and saw the image of the classroom ceiling and slowly one by one, she saw more figures being eaten alive by the dark hole as it kept on expanding and realized that they were her friends, who she was with inside the classroom. She heard their wails and cries for help. Other than that, one screamed out boldly; [i]"Guys, please don't die, promise me!"[/i] She didn't need to familiarize the voice because she very well knew this came from Eien. Yume tried to reach out her hands towards them and speak up, but her heavy arm and her unconsciousness clouded her once again as she shut her eyes and let her body strike wherever it'll land. ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------ [i]"..-me? Yume?! Wake up!"[/i] Yume heard her name being repeatedly called out with panic as she regained strength and slowly opened her eyes to see Kiku's figure and hearing him inhaling and exhaling intensely. [i]"Ki...ku...?"[/i] She called out in a weak voice. She couldn't completely make Kiku out. It was too dark to see and there was only little amount of light, but she knew it was him through his voice. Among the tiny rays of light, the place didn't seems all familiar to her. The floor boards were cracked, tables and chairs scattered all around the room and a bare chalk board. Aside the dark atmosphere, Yume knew they were in a classroom, but not the classroom she was in. And this place was DEFINITELY not her school. What's worse, everyone was missing aside from Kiku. Her heart started to rapidly beat with fear as she moved closer to Kiku. The rate of their intense breathing were practically the same. [i]"Kiku.... w-where are we? What happened? H-How..."[/i] Yume's body shivered along with the way she spoke. She was glad that she had someone with her to be accompanied with. Trembling with fear, Yume unknowingly clasped onto Kiku, trying to hold back her tears. .
