Yet another school day. At least today wasn't as bad as others, I had art eariler and fuelled with my love of anime it made it much more interesting. Until Aki teased me again over my watching "far too many cartoons". When I got home it was just as bad, I was looking forward to catching up on some anime, when it hit me. Was Aki right? I couldn't get into the show, the house was empty, both my parents were still at work. I packed up my homework and a few collectible figurines to inspire me and left for Anime World.

The store was huge for our local area, anime, a floor of collectibles (cards, posters, figurines, a dream come true), a section for console games for the boys (and a few girls) and a whole floor just for manga. A small cafe there would have been ideal for me to my homework and relax. If I got there that is.

That last corner I turned, that was a step to far. It lead me straight into yomi-no-kuni with no way to return. The green landscape was bad enough, but the shadows, they really scared me. So I ran. I not only felt the shivers of fear from where I was, but it seemed the chill of the shadows tendrils that reached out toward me threatened to freeze me in my tracks. I dared not risk screaming, in case more tried to catch me, so I ran faster.

I had no hope left, the shadows were gaining, then there were other steps and other girls. They were in the same situation as me, we were all doomed.

There standing like an Ezra Scarlet only with a spear, was hope. No shadows were near her. I had no choice, I ran to her and hoped I would make it to safety.
