The words just appear letter by letter. The story is entitled "His World" and written by Vaughn. As I read, The story starts from here. Shier P.O.V. "SHIER COME BACK HERE!!!" Laughter echoed while I run at my full speed, I don't want to be caught not that Heed can do that. Heed is my guard and my friend.

I move farther."I will not hurt you." She moved faster before she could touch me. I disappeared through the darkness."Where are you?" she asked while searching for me."I just wanted to thank you." She continued to walk through the darkness. After a while, she slipped into a hole and went under the water. I saw that the lady struggle in the water."I can't swim!"

Nadie's P.O.V.Fast forward..."I thought you don't trust me?" She asked while we are currently hiding in the basement of the hotel.I extend my arms and reach her forehead."Why did you say that?." I asked."Because you're still aloof with me, I guess." I stood silent within the boundary of shadow and a silhouette of light. Since silence is what hyria here for ages, She took it as a yes."Then why are you here?""I am just curious.""Of what?" I can't tell her that I am curious whether she is crazy or just brave enough. I mean, I just saved her earlier from danger and she is walking in the same direction again. But even without that reason. Somehow I want to protect the very first person who knows I exist. She didn't even say that I am disgusting."Nothing.” That is the only thing I could say.“Why are we here again?"

When the television opens, Shier almost jumps in surprise.I never knew that keeping your laugh is tiring so I just slip.“Hahahahaha!” I just laugh to my heart's content. I cannot help it, even if he is awkwardly surprised by it, it just took him a second to adjust and come toward the television.“The people are inside the box! Why they are there?
