"I need to choose." I uttered."What do you mean?" Nao asked, confused."I'll explain it using the codes." I clarified."Using the Caesar Cipher?" Hans curiously asked."Yes, I'll send it during the afternoon classes." I replied, because I still need to write it.Now I need their help, not only to make me think rationally but also to help me with something that might happen suddenly."And this way will be safer." I continued explaining."How can it be safe? You're still going to tell it to us, so what's the difference between saying it and writing it down?" Nao continued asking questions looking concerned because it might happen again like last time.Last time that I suddenly lost consciousness and felt a sudden pain in my chest, he was nervous because of the questions he asked. That time he regretted what he did and blamed himself.But that time we were in too much of a hurry because we both wanted to know the same side information we gathered. So this time, I know what I'm d
“Inaudible voice in an unknown language.”“Inaudible voice in an unknown language.”“Inaudible voice in an unknown language.”"Choose."I didn't understand the first things he said but when he said the word "Choose." The dreams that I dreamed about related to the storage room, related to that student hanging in the ceiling just suddenly played back on my mind, repeatedly like the shadow was torturing my mind.I grabbed my head and tried to squeeze it, squeezing it. Trying to stop the repeatedly playing of that nightmare. It's not a dream anymore but a nightmare and it's messing up my mind. And it's making my visions blurry because the more the memories play on my mind the more my head hurts. I just bowed because of what I'm feeling right now.It was difficult, but slowly I tried to straighten myself up while still holding my head with my hands. I looked in the mirror again and stared at it while waiting for my vision to clear. I saw the shadow, still standing behind me as if wa
Miyazaki Naoki's POV I just watched Kio in his seat. I can't stop the worry I feel especially when he went out earlier and came back after an hour had passed. Our class had ended earlier but he hadn't come back yet, but when I saw him enter the classroom when I was about to follow him, I immediately approached him. Instead of feeling relief from the worry, it only increased because he entered the classroom with his hair a little wet, his pale face and uniform are also wet, and I think his face was wet because of the water in the bathroom because he washed it there. But it's surprising, because his clothes are almost wet, is it from the water from the sink? Or from his sweat? But it's pretty unusual to sweat like that just by going to the bathroom or maybe something happened? There's a possibility that something happened. I immediately remembered the paper that Kio handed me earlier before he went out. I took it from my pocket and looked at it, maybe it's connected to this, to what’
Ishikawa Kioshi's POVThe moment the car was suddenly struck with some sort of light, I assumed that we were all going to die. The hood crumbled like a piece of paper, pieces of the car and windshield broke off. As it was we barely had time to scream and before the airbags knocked both of my parents. I hugged Mio, my little sister who is sitting beside me and at the same time the car tumbled over and over so many times I had become disorientated before I even sustained the concussion that had me drifting in and out of consciousness before coming to an absolute stop. Silence; it scared me more than the pain.I don't know how to feel, if I am scared, nervous, worried or thinking that I might not be able to live again, all I can hear is my heart beating fast. Those fearful expressions, screams wrapped in fear and nervousness. I didn't hear all of that because of the excessive force of the impact but I knew in myself that I could feel everything, everything that happened. Things are going
The accident played over and over again in my mind. I saw what happened to my parents, the car crashing, the shattering of glass and the fearful expression of Mio as I hugged her. And the strange voice I heard."(Inaudible voice in an unknown language)""MIO !!" I shouted loudly as I suddenly got up from my bed while catching my breath.I suddenly felt nervousness and fear as I trembled while sweat continued to drip down my body."That accident again." I whispered while calming myself.I felt as if something wrapped around my right eye along with my head. I touched my right eye as my head suddenly ached. I closed my eyes and touched my head in pain. I folded my legs tightly while writhing in pain at the same time remembering what had happened. All of the memories from the accident are fastly playing in my mind, things and events I saw in the accident all of that one by one I remember it all again."Mio .. M-mio .." I called my little sister again and again while suffering in pain."M-
As I watched the sky from the window of my room I still remember the things that happened last night. What happened to Okamoto Chiaki and about my eyes. Even if it is vague to think that it is all true because I only suddenly experienced and saw it for the first time, I knew in myself that I was ok and I felt ok at those times, so how? Is that one of the hallucinations? Illusion? Or just my imagination? But based on what Koizumi-san said it is not possible for my right eye to see anymore because it is completely blinded but what is that?"Is it just a side effect? But it can't be that it's side effect is to suddenly see stuff and what's more the thing that I saw is not merely what an ordinary human would see." I mumbled to myself while I kept on thinking about everything that had happened."Am I crazy? Or did my head get bumped to something? But the thing that I saw basically felt real but how did that happen if it's already blind?" I kept mumbling to myself."Onii-chan." I was star
After lunch I still do not forget all that happened.While I was in the middle of thinking about what was happening, someone visited us at the hospital.*Knock* *Knock*"I guess, it's already the weekend." I mumbled to myself.When I said that, the door opened and then I saw Nao."Yo, Kio I'm here to pay a visit." He said."Obviously." I replied in a sarcastic tone."I guess, the accident didn't shake your head much because you still talk sarcastically." He jokingly said as he chuckled. And we both laugh."Seriously, are you feeling ok?" He asked."What do you mean by that?" I ask. Nao's question is kinda creepy.Nao is my cousin slash best friend. We always get along because we are the same age but Nao is often a serious and straightforward person."Hahaha, about your eye dude." He answered while pointing at his eye."I thought you learn gaysh*ts, while I was gone hahaha." I jokingly said."Hahahaha, funny dude but seriously what happened to your eye? It's quite noticeable since it c
As I watched the faceless girl with a creepy smile, Nao suddenly called me."Kio." He said then he tapped my shoulder.I felt shivers down my spine. As I blinked I was back to reality like the time was back to normal too. And it disappeared next to Mio and I never saw it in those moments again."Is that a hallucination? But if it's the same with my right eye, that's not a hallucination." I mumbled to myself.When I finally realized that the first thing I saw was not a hallucination and that it was something new."Is this one related to that dream?" I asked myself in my mind, because I first saw this figure in my dream.I kinda creeped out as I saw it for the second time but the fact that I didn't inspect its clothes again didn't get me anything necessary. It looks like I'm starting to be shocked by the thing I see because what I see is not normal.I realized that almost everything that was happening to me was linked to my right eye. As with Chiaki-chan and the boy, both of them are ab

"S-soma" I stuttered.As I saw Soma in front of me, smiling. Smiling like today is the best day of his life. His face was different, his vibes and aura were also different, but at the same time I felt fear and nervousness. Not only to Soma but also to Hiroto-san.He then faced me while I'm still staring at him in the mirror."Ishikawa-san, are you ok?" He said that interrupted my thinking."A-ah yeah hahaha, I just got a lot on my mind lately." I answered as I realized that I'm acting quite weird."Oh I see, good luck then hehe." He replied to me as he got back to what he was doing."How I wish your good luck can help me with what's on my mind." I said in my mind.I just watched him while washing his hands until he shook them and dried them."I'll be going now, Ishikawa-san." He said goodbye to me as he walked away from me and out of the bathroom.I should do something."Wait Soma, do you have plans later? Maybe you could join us, we're going somewhere later." I said, this is the only
That shadow with a complete face, tilted its head.I got startled and suddenly fell down, as I fell down I was in front of the toilet door. I looked around and realized that I'm back in my room. Everything was back to normal, except my heartbeat that still beats so fast after what I saw through that door. Trepidation and fear were the only things I felt at that time. I curled myself up as I tried to calm down."You need to be strong." I murmured."For Mio..""For Nao and Hans..""And for everyone."As I calmed down, I stood up and fixed myself.“It's just the beginning. And that beginning will happen tomorrow."—----*yawn*I didn't get enough sleep because of what happened last night. I kept on remembering it. I kept seeing him, that third shadow. Everywhere I looked I kinda saw him at first glance but when I looked back again, he's gone. Somewhat it's distracting me. Does it want to stop me? Is it because I know now that it will happen? That's why that shadow is hindering me, and rui
Ishikawa Kioshi's POV"I think-------AHHHHH!! The book I borrowed!!" I said as I panicked because I didn't have it."Where did I put it? I know I was holding it, where did it go??" I murmured as I was panicking while searching for it in my entire body."Maybe you dropped it along the way?" Nao said in uncertainty."No .. I didn't drop it, I know I was holding it until a while ago ….. wait .. a while ago." I said as I tried to recall what happened."You mean, they took it?" Nao asked as he realized what I'm saying."Yes, that's the last thing I remembered." I certainly replied."Then I will get it." Nao said seriously as he slowly removed my arm around his shoulder."I'll also come with you." I said, at the same time I stopped him from removing my arm from his shoulder."You can’t." Nao said as he looked at me."Well if I can't go, you can't either." I straightforwardly said to him."Why?" He asked."Because there are three of them." I explained."If there's only three then why did you
Ishikawa Kioshi's POV"K-ki-o?""Huh?" I suddenly said in my mind as I heard someone call my name."Who .. is it?" Again I said in my mind.Only in my mind can I utter a word because I can't open my mouth, I can feel the pain I feel especially on the lips.I could see nothing, I could not see what was in front of me because of the beating I had received earlier. I just felt my body suddenly lifted by somebody, as if someone was helping me to stand up.I was about to raise my head when I suddenly remembered what I had seen earlier.[Flashback]As I was walking along the road I met a man, I suddenly turned my attention to the one I met because I noticed that his body was almost gone and only a few particles were left."Excuse me." I suddenly said without thinking, because I was stunned and just staring at his body, but he didn't seem to hear me because he just kept walking."Hey!" I shouted as I reached out my hand to him, but still he didn't look back and I didn't reach him.Until
"Yeah that Greek Mythology." I agreed to what Hans just said, because this is simply the only clue we have. "That's where we'll find the answers." I concluded.As we walked through the hallway Hans suddenly began to speak."Do you really think it's related to the book?" Hans asks in curiosity, while traces of thoughts and doubts can be seen on his face, if that book really has anything to do with what is happening to Kio."It's worth the shot, rather than nothing." I said straightforwardly. Even I am doubting but I can't let this chance slip away because this is the only clue we have.He is also skeptical because we will base what is happening in reality on a myth in ancient times especially when it is about gods and goddesses that were only made by people at that time, but I can't let him see that I'm also doubting, like him."We'll know if it's connected if we read the book. And so that you can freshen up your memory about it, since you've already read that book." I continued trying
Miyazaki Naoki's POV"Where does the other one appear?""To Hans? Or maybe ..""To someone else?"I suddenly thought, because of what Hans said about how Kio seemed to see someone next to me.That I think is a shadow figure too, but that was just my accusations, conclusions based on what Hans just said. And the way Kio reacted when I said that about the shadow figure.Seems to be a pretty solid proof.[Flashback]I was about to leave Hans in the kitchen when he suddenly spoke again."Oh one more thing." Hans chased."What?" I asked."He also kinda saw something beside you a while ago before we ate." Hans said."What did he see?" I asked."I don't know but he was reaching at you but when I touched his shoulder nothing seemed to happen. He just bowed suddenly." He explained.Hmm .. What did he suddenly see at that time? Is it the same as what happened to me?"Is it the same as what I saw last time?" I suddenly uttered as I recalled what happened."Same with what you saw?" Hans
