Sure enough though, the other students began to gather in one spot, with the exception of Jack and Mii, who were still unconscious. Choosing to hover over them for protection, Shizune looked up at her gathered classmates. Her red eyes seemed distant and her voice was level and controlled, losing its earlier panic. The violin was getting closer. This would have to be quick. [color=ed1c24]"Everyone, please calm down. The more you panic, the more likely you'll attract him,”[/color] she said, eager to leave it at that, directing for everyone to take in their new surroundings closely. [color=ed1c24]"We've all been dragged into a different dimension from our own. One that looks and acts like our own, but as you will all find, it is naught but a twisted reflection. This is the World of Wasted Dreams."[/color] She said this as if it were indisputable fact, completely confident in her own words. Whether the others chose to believe her was up to them, thought it was hard to dispute the weird surroundings. Not to mention the red sky and dark forest outside. Though the true mystery was why Shizune knew any of this information at all. [color=ed1c24]"There's no way to escape because we can't exit this school. You will also find that you will lack the need for normal bodily functions. You won't feel hungry but you will find your exhaustion increasing as time goes on,"[/color] she listed, giving all that she knew of the situation to inform these people as quick as possible of their impending danger. [color=ed1c24]"In this world, it's just us...and the monsters. Predators that will hunt us down and kill us. That's all. It is the utmost priority that we stick together and don't make any risky moves if we wish to survive. Now please, let's find somewhere safer t-"[/color] Shizune's eyes widened as the darkness shifted ever so slightly. That feeling....there was a growing sense of something wrong in the back of her mind. She knew what it was now in sick realization because as she was giving her speech, she hadn’t realized it before. The music had stopped playing. [color=ed1c24]"Everyone...please stay in the classroom,”[/color] she said quietly, her eyes were fixed on the....the thing that lay in wait, standing in the hallway. It looked like an impossibly tall man dressed in dark clothing, a jacket and pants. A white powdered mask lay on its face, with only two slits for eyes. Its left arm looked bloody and torn apart, flakes of flesh and cloth shredded and melded as one. In its right arm was a violin stick. The Friagne. Shizune took a step forward, carefully motioning for the others to stay behind while keeping an eye on the thing. The Friagne titled its masked face sideways in an inhuman manner before raising the violin stick to its left arm....and then proceeded to slash it back and forth violently on the shredded skin. What resulted was the beautiful melody of violin [url= https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=3lOJcldYtmc]music[/url]. Without hesitation, the thing's chest began to rip apart to the swoon of the melody, revealing several long strands of material. On closer inspection, one could see that these strings were in fact veins. Still bleeding, fresh, and thin human veins. With a lash, the Friagne's innards reached forward and wrapped around both Alex and Tony’s throats, lifting them up in the air and strangling them. Shizune ran forward to try and help the two free themselves, only to have a large cut suddenly appear on her cheek. Stumbling back, she tensed as several dolls in the form of small newborns began to crawl out of the Friagne's gaping opening and leap and slash out in all directions. They each had half-burned and crooked faces armed with knives in their hands. As the veins coiled tighter around Alex and Tony’s necks, the creature continued playing its violin piece by using its self-inflicted instrument. Shizune gritted her teeth in agitation and fear for her classmates. No, no, no! This was all wrong! Why was this happening so early? Friagne wasn't supposed to be here!
