[i]"He wasn't a friendly guy, that's for sure,"[/i] Shirako answered. [i]"Didn't talk like the guy you two ran into - moaned and groaned like he was some demented country singer. Took after us with a huge pipe. Haven't seen him since Tohaku and I split... I hope she's alright.." [/i] Yume tapped her chin with her finger, pondering who was that 'person' who Shirako was talking about. Not friendly? Can't say any proper words? What's worse, he tried to kill them? Is he one of 'them'? [i]"Well, I guess that means she's in here with us, right?"[/i] Shirako continued and smirked. Yume simply shrugged and smiled at him. Honestly, she really doesn't know if she's 'here' with them. She remembered Kei-sensei's words of occupying different dimensions. Who knows what might have happened to her by now, but at the same time, she didn't want to keep her expectations ahead of her and lose hope. [i]"Think you can walk?"[/i] Shirako asked, extending both of his hands to Yume and Kiku. [i]"We can wait if you two need rest, however I feel we should get a move on..."The longer we stay in here, the less of a chance we have of finding our friends, right?"[/i] And gazed at the door. Yume bit her lips and looked down at her stomach. She's able to sit properly now, probably she can walk too,... right? Well, now that she's feeling all better.... and her leg seemed all better too... She nodded and took Shirako's hand. Each and every little step she took applied little pressure to her stomach. When she touched the ground with both of her feet, her whole body unsteadily wobbled. Maybe because she lacked energy and sufficient blood, but Yume kept all of this aside and held on to both Shirako and her medical bed, taking slow steps.
