Ryuu, Fuuma, and Eiji were bored out of their minds in history class. Mr. Tanaka, their teacher, was droning on about the French Revolution, and the only thing keeping them awake was the thought of escaping to the cafeteria for a much-needed snack break.238Please respect copyright.PENANAP5RzanZ6JQ

"This is torture," Ryuu whispered to Fuuma, his eyes rolling.238Please respect copyright.PENANAQqywQYpZ2z
238Please respect copyright.PENANAVBBWseXdcM
"Tell me about it," Fuuma replied, burying his face in his textbook.238Please respect copyright.PENANAtgoTi5RGeI

Eiji, lost in his own world, was sketching a portrait of Aoi, the class president, in his notebook. He had a secret crush on her, and he couldn't help but be drawn to her quiet grace and intelligence.238Please respect copyright.PENANAVt1HtJ24nJ
238Please respect copyright.PENANAEGBzA5UWsV
Suddenly, a loud BANG echoed through the classroom, followed by a plume of smoke billowing from the back of the room. Chaos erupted as students scrambled to their feet, their faces contorted in terror.238Please respect copyright.PENANAG09cb3rs1z
238Please respect copyright.PENANAqFJ4aOQPYo
"Fire! Fire!" someone screamed.238Please respect copyright.PENANAnwNYddq5DE
238Please respect copyright.PENANA62UyVUkpJZ
Ryuu, ever the prankster, couldn't resist the opportunity for a good laugh. He grabbed a handful of papers from his desk and threw them into the air, yelling, "Run for your lives!"238Please respect copyright.PENANAEcyvW6SuPA
238Please respect copyright.PENANA555X1BgtFm
Fuuma, realizing the situation was far from funny, grabbed Ryuu's arm and pulled him towards the door. "Ryuu, this is not the time for a joke!"238Please respect copyright.PENANARGJeOUqceE
238Please respect copyright.PENANAiRglQH5x6r
Eiji, still lost in his own world, was oblivious to the pandemonium around him. He continued to sketch Aoi, his eyes fixated on her as she calmly led the students out of the classroom.238Please respect copyright.PENANAC8O4SWug1O
238Please respect copyright.PENANAEngo48gFVL
As they made their way down the hallway, the fire alarm blared, its shrill sound filling the air. Ryuu, unable to resist the urge to add to the chaos, started singing along to the alarm, his voice a high-pitched, off-key rendition of "Smoke on the Water."238Please respect copyright.PENANAaQWGvcKuFK
238Please respect copyright.PENANAkgmKZT2EBL
Fuuma, exasperated, slapped his hand over Ryuu's mouth. "Will you be quiet!"238Please respect copyright.PENANARgL3ZSD5zd
238Please respect copyright.PENANAFJnSeJxdop
"But it's a classic!" Ryuu protested, his eyes sparkling with mischief.238Please respect copyright.PENANA28RD35U3IY
238Please respect copyright.PENANAku6eV4nNkf
They finally reached the schoolyard, where the students were gathering in a confused mass. Ryuu, still chuckling to himself, pointed at the smoke billowing from the classroom window.238Please respect copyright.PENANAZbhQkR74pG
238Please respect copyright.PENANAoxIoic3UZv
"I told you it was going to be epic!" he declared, his voice filled with pride.238Please respect copyright.PENANANEhJQu2suN
238Please respect copyright.PENANAU96mqUB4CV
"You're a menace, Ryuu," Fuuma said, shaking his head in disbelief.238Please respect copyright.PENANAdIBxVLAseG
238Please respect copyright.PENANAiNk6JFk8B2
But as they looked around, they noticed that Aoi was nowhere to be seen. She had disappeared into the smoke-filled classroom, and no one knew where she had gone.238Please respect copyright.PENANA0V5ckeUrm2
238Please respect copyright.PENANACLN71XqISD
"Where's Aoi?" Ryuu asked, his voice suddenly serious.238Please respect copyright.PENANAPSN14ISWV6
238Please respect copyright.PENANADywiQ0FmAE
Fuuma scanned the crowd, his eyes searching for their friend. "I don't know," he said, his voice laced with concern. "Maybe she went back inside?"238Please respect copyright.PENANAe2Oj8uVODw
238Please respect copyright.PENANAmkXtCDr4bd
Ryuu, his sense of humor momentarily forgotten, felt a pang of worry. He couldn't imagine Aoi being in danger, and he was determined to find her.238Please respect copyright.PENANAWxZNKovbV0
238Please respect copyright.PENANAMs4cqySLKm
"We have to find her," he said, his voice firm. "Let's go back inside."238Please respect copyright.PENANAB29FqA5UD4
238Please respect copyright.PENANAjA8eeg5wCl
Fuuma, sharing his friend's concern, nodded in agreement. Together, they made their way back towards the classroom, their hearts pounding with a mixture of fear and determination.
Ryuu, Fuuma, and Eiji stood outside the classroom, the air thick with smoke and the sound of the fire alarm ringing in their ears. Aoi was missing, and a sense of worry settled over them. They knew they had to find her, but what had happened to her, and why had she gone to the library? The mystery deepened, and the trio knew their adventure was just beginning.
