“Eww…”

A hazy awakening, a sensation felt at the tips of the fingers.

A sharp pain struck my entire body, and at the same time, a strong headache shook my mind.

I covered my mouth with my hand because my heart was rumbling, and got up from my seat.

I looked around, rubbing my blurry eyes.

The slowly flowing wind and the warm sunlight pouring down from the sky.

The warmth of the warm rocks rising from below.

And rain and shine scattered around.

I checked the two people’s appearances and sighed in relief.

Neither of them appeared to be injured.

I got up from my seat and looked behind me.

A line of people formed along the blurred boundary.

Buildings towering high into the sky and cars zooming along the roads.

The radio waves streaming in from there made my head spin.

I immediately sat down, my powers sinking.

The door opened.

It was exactly the same scene that Shumain had shown me the other day.

What that means is that if I stretch my body out there now, I can get out of here.

Could this be a big problem?

Is it okay to keep that door open?

But nothing was solved by thinking about it alone.

I picked up a rock that had fallen nearby and threw it at the hole again.

The hole swallowed the stone just like before.

But this time I could see what was happening on the other side.

The stones fell and rolled around the people.

People who had been walking along looked startled by the sudden hurling of rocks and scattered in all directions.

I swallowed dry saliva.

I can go out there now.

The body that had been standing there blankly suddenly started moving.

One step, another step.

There was no hesitation in taking each step forward.

“Jeff.”

At that moment, Shine’s voice was heard from behind.

I took another step without answering.

“Jeff.”

Shine called me again.

A body that was walking smoothly suddenly stops moving.

I looked back slowly.

“Jeff. Where are you?”

Shine’s white eyes begin to gradually turn black.

As soon as I saw that sight, I turned around and started running towards the boundary line.

“Jeff!”

Shine’s voice was urgent, and I couldn’t understand my actions.

Why are you running? Shine is calling you so desperately from behind.

in action.

no.

in action.

no!

Discharge – A blue current rises before your eyes.

It felt as if two people were moving one body at the same time.

I wanted to go right, but another me wanted to go left.

Two wills collide.

“Move!”

A voice bursts out of my mouth.

I was surprised, because those words were not spoken of my own free will.

My mind is mixed up.

Memories that had been buried begin to surface.

I tried desperately to stop moving.

Shine!

Shine!

The voice that was spat out at her no longer came out of my mouth.

It’s hard to do it alone.

I don’t think I can stand it anymore.

Please help me.

Shine.

“Jeff!”

Shine ran towards me as I hesitated.

A blue current burst out from the head and began to scratch the surrounding ground.

Phagecic-!

My gaze becomes clouded, and the memories that come to mind become clearer.

I desperately turned away.

no.

I’m Jeff.

You are Jeff.

Me and I speak at the same time.

I worked under Dr. Heblum.

No. I am.

I observed various test subjects.

no.

Do you really think so?

no!

The body that had been still began to move once again.

I take another step towards it, slowly.

“Jeff! Don’t go!”

Shine, who was running towards me, grabbed my hand.

My body began to sway as the hand that grabbed me suddenly grabbed me.

Shine hugged my body tightly and prevented me from moving any further.

“Get out of the way.”

The voice that came out of his mouth was too cold.

At that, Shine’s body trembles.

“Jeff, don’t be weird.”

Shine raised her hand and grabbed my cheek.

The strength begins to drain from my body as I try to shake her off.

An angry roar burst out from my head.

Get out of the way!

“There are still some bad parts left. It’s okay. Don’t worry. ”

Shine’s hand moves slowly, caressing my cheek.

I slowly raise my trembling hands.

My body, which until just a moment ago was unable to move by my own will, begins to move.

“Sha… shine.”

The tongue, moving slowly, finally says Shine’s name.

Vicky! You crazy little bastards!

Don’t say bad words.

I pushed Shine’s body away.

That was the moment.

Blue electric currents burst out from his body in all directions.

Phagec!

“Jeff!”

Fortunately, Shine wasn’t caught up in the power.

But control of my body was lost again.

A very excited body.

The sound of panting breaths seems to be fading away.

My image is reflected in Shine’s black eyes.

The sight of someone panting and scattering a lot of blue electricity around them.

The fallen trees around them begin to burn.

As black smoke begins to rise into the sky, Rain, who had been lying down, flinches and sits up.

I can’t hear anything.

The girl reflected in Shine’s eyes shouts something with bloodshot eyes.

Shine’s hands begin to tremble as if shocked by those words.

I screamed when I saw that sight.

Don’t say bad things to Shine!

Shine shouted something at Lane who woke up.

Then, Lane immediately raised his hand and used his power.

The water from the surrounding lake soars into the sky, creating a huge wall.

The white girl looked very embarrassed at the sight.

Kwaaak-!

The huge barrier created by Rain swept towards the white girl.

As the rough waves swept over my body, my gaze began to wander here and there.

From top to bottom, then back to top again.

I couldn’t even keep my balance because of the spinning gaze.

“Coolook!”

The distant sound is coming closer again.

The body was soaking wet, and the sensation of the body came into my mind.

Shine ran straight towards me.

I crawled slowly and leaned against a large tree.

“Jeff? Is that Jeff?”

Shine’s black eyes turn to me.

I nodded at her.

“It’s okay. I, I’ll fix it again. I’ll get rid of the bad part.”

“Jeff!”

Rain also started running towards me.

I smiled at Shine.

“Go back to the beginning, Jeff. How long have we been together?”

Shine’s words came across as a buzzing sound.

The voices in my head began to grow quieter.

Memories that had come to mind so vividly are locked away once again.

This time, we continue to go deeper, further down, and on.

The voice also began to sink in, following the memory.

I put a big house on it.

I’m talking about a house with a pretty red roof and a yard.

Don’t let it come up anymore.

“We’ve been together since the beginning, from the beginning.”

Shine smiled with satisfaction at my answer.

Her clear laughter made me feel good too.

“Jeff! Are you okay? Are you hurt anywhere?”

Rain, who was running towards me, clung to my body leaning against the tree and began to examine my body here and there.

At the worry in her eyes, a small smile escapes.

I raised my weak hand and touched Lane’s cheek.

“It’s okay.”

“Not yet.”

As she said that, Shine grabbed my hand that was caressing Rain’s cheek.

She fixed her gaze on me once again.

Shine digs deep into your mind.

“Rain. Stay still. I need to fix Jeff.”

“Ah. Oh. Yeah!”

Rain sat down a little way away from Shine at her request.

“How did it stay?”

Dismissal – Something touched the depths of my mind.

Shine, yes it was Shine’s touch.

Shine’s hand flinched and stepped back as the electricity burst right in front of her eyes.

“Jeff, unravel that.”

What are you talking about?

Shine told me to let go of something.

But I couldn’t understand what Shine was saying.

“Jeff. Hurry up. Someone’s coming.”

But, shine.

I don’t know what you’re talking about.

At my words, Shine let out a deep sigh.

Her gaze turns across the forest.

She was getting impatient.

“Jeff, you have to hold it together and not blink. Okay? ”

Shine fixed her gaze on me once again.

I nodded to her words.

The black pupils began to change again.

Bloodshot eyes appear around her eyes.

Shine’s distorted face.

A moment later, blood began to flow from Shine’s nose.

Thud- thud- Shine’s blood drips down her face.

The surrounding scenery began to turn white.

I can’t see anything but shine.

Shine’s black eyes began to gradually lighten in color, then turned purple.

She didn’t even breathe.

The breath that was falling on my face stops.

On the contrary, blood began to fall more and more.

Blood that used to flow on one side began to flow on the other side as well.

Click-

Something clicked in my head. The moment I realized it.

The surroundings were plunged into darkness as if a fuse had blown in my vision.

***

“You really don’t remember anything?”

“Yes.”

When I woke up in the hospital room, I nodded and answered Amy’s question.

I even remembered going out to the forest to play with Shine and Rain.

Why did we wake up in a hospital bed?

Shine and Rain also said they had no memories.

People gathered in the hospital room with serious expressions.

Jin and Shumain, Amy and Victor, and even Allen.

“An attack from outside is impossible.”

The adults started talking.

They all had such serious faces that I couldn’t call any of them.

I grabbed my pounding head and headed towards the bed where Shine was lying.

“Shine. I need to go to the bathroom.”

“Bathroom?”

“Yeah.”

I crawled onto Shine’s bed and leaned against her body.

Shine gave me a small smile, then stroked my head and looked at Amy.

“Shall I go out?”

“Yeah. I want to go quickly.”

Shine carefully got down from the bed at my words.

Neither Shine nor I were physically abnormal.

Shine reached out to me.

I naturally took her hand and started walking towards the entrance of the hospital room.

“Ah. Rain~”

I called out to Rain, who was sitting on the bed hugging her pillow.

She, who had been sitting blankly, raised her head at my words.

“Yeah, yeah?”

“We’re going to the bathroom. Do you want to go too?”

“Bathroom? Oh, yeah. I’ll go too.”

So Rain also joined me and Shine.

I held out the other hand that was holding Shine’s hand to Lane.

The three of them walked side by side, holding hands, and stood in front of the hospital room door.

The adults were still engaged in a serious conversation.

“Amy!”

I called Amy.

Then Shine shivered in surprise.

“Huh, huh? Jeff?”

“I’m going to the bathroom!”

I spoke to Amy forcefully.

Then Amy answered with a small smile.

“Yeah. If Shine does anything weird, you should tell me right away?”

“Yes!”

“Shine.”

“Yeah.”

“If you do something weird to Jeff again, you’re going to get in big trouble.”

“Yeah. I won’t do that.”

“If you think the kids are going to do something weird, stop them right away.”

“This, something weird?”

“Yeah, that’s weird.”

“Okay!”

At Amy’s words, Lane nodded, her ears turning red.

We left the sickroom like that.

The empty hallway was filled with the sound of three small footsteps.

I walked slowly and asked Shine.

“Shine.”

“Yeah.”

“Am I fixed?”

Shine’s eyes shook greatly at my words.

I asked again.

“Is it fixed?”

“It’s fixed, what do you mean?”

Rain asked me as if he didn’t understand what I was saying.

But what I needed was Shine’s answer.

Shine hesitated for a moment, then nodded and answered.

“Yeah. Perfect.”

“Excuse me? Me too, tell me too!”

Rain shook my arm wildly, saying things that only he could not understand.

I smiled slightly and hugged Rain.

“It’s nothing. Everything is okay now.”

“Uh, uh…”

As I hugged Rain and buried my face in her neck, sniffing her scent, Rain’s small body trembled and shrank.

I burst out laughing because the sight was so cute.
