Fire and rain collided. Screams of horror and madness clashed with the sound of the roaring wind. People of all ages ran, men, women, children. Some escaped terror, some left behind. All died.599Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjoyq8nO6Ja
599Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzOw4TYJo0f
Bodies upon bodies, the mountain of vacant vessels grew, a river of red flowing from it.599Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡf3lyXkDKLO
599Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsrlaHsGEVN
Rain fell harder, flashes of lightning illuminating the fresh blood. The roaring thunder boomed in the sky, like the sound of angels and demons in spiritual battle. Like the sound of crying. Like the sound of screaming.599Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZWU1wlPH7f
599Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMRphovMYhg
Like the sound of a loving King, watching His children suffer horrible deaths, enraged and in tears, crying out:599Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXhFXPI5gcF
“Why do you endlessly torture my people, My children? Why, cruel and horrible World, why do you not even try to listen to the cries? Surely, I do not cry for just My Church, I cry for you, the world, the persecutors. A celebratory reunion will be held as My children leave their pains and sorrows behind, as they come home to the place they belong. Angels will sing them here, World. You have tortured my children, but they have won. World, you have lost, and your sin brings Me to tears.”599Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNwrHLF6Q91
A figure ran through the crimson rain, holding a small child in his arms. Dark silhouettes of the trees swayed in the mighty storm, scaring the already frightened child.599Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUPjtKNtlq9
599Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJNhSDhItC3
The figure and the child arrived at a gazebo that was covered in vines and thorns, with chipped paint and wood as its scars from its battle with time.599Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOjiNM5fmzH
599Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡuL9ODzxK5S
“I cannot stay here, so you need to stay until chaos dies down.” said the figure, setting down the small child on a bench that resided in the gazebo.599Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFgyw1gzswN
“But why? Why...?” began the little child, trying to wipe away its tears. No matter how hard the child tried, the tears kept falling, just like the endless rain.599Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡR2kAImmqqn
599Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmRcQ4P0m58
The figure came closer to the child, wiping away its falling tears. The figure smiled sadly, rain falling on his face.599Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbzbv843UIk
“Hey, I will meet you again, in your future, and I will meet you again, in my past. Until then, keep on...and...”599Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5747sbXkQA
599Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtdWSV2Z3CT
The voice faded out, the rest of the words forgotten with the child and the dead. Once again, everyone was gone.599Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6AYAgHRGdL
599Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6yXDCBPc48
Everyone died.599Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡle4AHX0LHM
Migi opens his eyes. The school bell pulled him back into reality. Classmates packed their things to leave school.599Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡayEQGgnipC
599Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvCN5sJihAJ
It was finally the long awaited winter break that Migi was waiting on, and he could not wait to get out of the building so that he could begin his winter of doing nothing.599Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5DRzG75lhi
At least, that was what Migi kept telling himself.599Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVmhcVx9f6g
599Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCr9WSvsCa6
Despite being the day of freedom that Migi waited for, he did not rush himself out of the classroom.599Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFXM0HlJo0m
Instead, he sat at his desk, quiet.599Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡoPZYgzLgoe
599Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAJyIl9QzCJ
‘Sheesh...of all the repeating dreams...why that dream?’ thought Migi, touching his forehead. He sighed.599Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡipPMkw3mo0
‘It never happened. That child was never saved. That person never existed.’599Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3TXnYVZ1gb
599Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpuVJx8Nd9C
He rested his head on his desk, looking to the classroom’s large window as he did so. Hidari stood in front of the window, looking outside, waiting.599Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡphyEOyYB6a
599Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡErpJTt8lYK
‘That’s right....Tori and Hidari have been friends for a month now, and Tori hasn’t been to school in a week....’599Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1d0gfXmuxI
599Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡM1D3pQpAkt
Migi got up from his desk and walked towards Hidari.599Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMzRojDEeRs
She had looked so sad and alone, void of all emotions. The beautiful young girl was so dark, so quiet. It was almost as if the fact that Tori was absent was like she had lost a part of herself.599Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2Oi9XnqhG2
599Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8L3NKLjXME
The two had become so close.599Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7WtAFbDsgV
599Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7oWRurGTH4
It was obvious that she missed Tori, every time his name was mentioned she perked up a bit, only to realize that only his name was there, not him himself.599Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0sxdRDDoo2
599Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXJCgegAwW8
“Hey, he’s probably just sick,” said Migi. He wasn’t trying to sound encouraging, and it showed in his voice.599Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfi1k3LdozA
“I miss him,” said Hidari.599Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4ftX5EynxM
599Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbFM3FR3cBN
Migi looked at her. Her voice was so cold and emotionless, Migi could have sworn that it was the snowy weather outside speaking instead of her.599Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqhgVqSb7hL
599Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwphJsSgP1H
“I miss him,” began Hidari again. “I fear that he is more than sick, or that something has gone wrong. I don’t blame him...if he doesn’t want to talk to me and be my friend anymore. I’m boring and I never talk. I’m sure it’s something I did...”599Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ53ngJWZVkW
599Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLkY8rUpFl3
Hidari held her hands tightly together. She was shaking.599Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRKTrd1FdKO
“I’m sure that you aren’t the problem,” began Migi. “I...”599Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQeUEnvKeVl
599Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ21kDiD2aAl
Migi noticed Hidari looking at him. Her eyes were filled with a worry and fear that seemed to suffocate all hope and positivity that could ever be found in her situation.599Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMeuF2Y9giz
Migi sighed, reluctance shining through it.599Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡebGFUdP9rw
599Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0imJQrmXlz
“...I’ll help you find him.” he spoke, giving into the sadness in Hidari’s eyes.
The two walked through the snow.599Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnkUYr6RkFp
A great silence surrounded them, a silence that only the cold understood the most. The freezing winter air cut sharp into the two, despite no wind flow. Everything in the town hibernated, it was like no one lived in it.599Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdqJ34TsceC
599Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3lFP6vvXVW
’This feels like it is gonna be a wild goose chase...′ began Migi’s thoughts. ‘For all we know he could be...’599Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTRFw2sYMVy
599Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrhYp3d0sHM
Migi felt someone looking at him. Hidari stared at him with glassy eyes at the brink of tears. It was like she knew what he was going to say. It was like she had thought the same thing he did.599Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHrJCegkMtJ
599Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBeTMNpu9pQ
Like she had read his mind.599Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKXYXBKDapD
599Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXAzBJF8Bls
Yells of children came from up ahead on the snowy path than Hidari and Migi began to pave. The voices were familiar, voices of classmates.599Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡih4p6qJeb3
599Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYhqJtYyIqV
The voice of Tori.599Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2vSBRpzbRl
599Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJiULVwtbMe
Hidari ran towards the voices, Migi following slowly behind.599Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡukTZvgJPbD
599Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHBwu7ZSG75
“You’re not well!” yelled a boy. He had blue hair that went to the top of his shoulders.599Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMVwMGnfEy0
Migi had seen the boy before, be he never noticed the boy’s hair color before.599Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHnTLEvhJXz
“You just woke up today, just come back and take it easy, besides, do you even know where you are going?!” said another boy, who had pink hair that was the same length as the blue haired boy’s.599Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvMm1PV9HrA
“I told you, I’m fine! Now shut up and leave me alone so that I can go to the destination where it all ends for me!” replied Tori.599Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbSakoA1kvO
He wore hospital clothes and had bare feet, his tone of voice was unlike any tone Migi had ever heard him use before. His words, his voice, they were colder than ice, his golden eye, sharp and filled with anger.599Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡaKUiFbCqri
“You need to rest more!” began a boy with short, white hair. “If you don’t, you’ll...”599Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwzqJ60WAcX
“Just shut up, I don’t care anymore!” replied Tori. He put his hands over his ears.599Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGeVKjd35oE
“Tori!” yelled Hidari. She ran closer to Tori.599Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcyJlAmwgmw
599Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvOqL84mqFg
Tori looked at her, his eyes filled with anger and stress, but at the same time, it almost seemed that a small existence of relief glowed in his emotions.599Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡyjPpf8kSgP
“Are you okay?” began Hidari, worried. “I was worried when you didn’t come to school...I...”599Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRFE0QXtxax
“I don’t need your help.” interrupted Tori. His voice was shaky.599Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtaUxvVJYa5
“I don’t need anyone to help me,” began Tori again. “I just need to die...”599Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpYXK936SDi
“But...” began Hidari.599Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4hg0BTtHdL
“Just leave me alone, or you’ll be the next one to die!” yelled Tori.599Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPji1BapWsT
599Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡo6NzZk6PJu
His eye was filled with tears of anger and sorrow, and it looked that any moment, Tori would break down. Migi and the two boys looked at him, the three boys “I...I’m sorry...” began Tori. His voice shook as he looked at the snowy ground.599Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwX55qYVlyC
599Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBddVDamUUV
“I didn’t ask if you wanted help! I wouldn’t care if you told me to leave, I wouldn’t listen!” began Hidari.599Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMEG3WcYH3N
599Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBwuxEsZgMv
Migi looked at her.599Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡd5idxJviLu
She was speaking louder than Migi had ever heard her speak before.599Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2pUExiwfWT
599Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHJhtJDCXvG
“I don’t care that you don’t think that you need help...you’re my friend, and I want to help you no matter what. However, if you keep telling yourself that you should die....”599Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡV6RR4j4xqQ
Her voice began to crack and she began to shake.599Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjzP4FUQ2KL
“If you keep saying that you should die, then I will never forgive you!” yelled Hidari.599Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmgoXRjUCW7
599Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6zTR4VQ9gO
Everyone looked towards Hidari. Her eyes were filled with tears of anger and sorrow, confusion and wavering strength that was being eaten by her negative emotions.599Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtbiy5S7Zal
599Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8f15SPzGgr
Tori looked at her, speechless and shaking.599Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0QhlQt4dRp
“I’m sorry…” whispered Tori.599Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrFY05mQ1qI
He turned, running away from everyone as fast as he could.599Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkHMCpgEtjn
“Tori!” yelled the three boys, running after him.599Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4e3jbd4Q4u
Hidari stood still, looking to the ground. Migi walked closer to Hidari.599Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIgjRJ0QMQp
“Hey...he just needs to be left alone. It’s not our business to know what’s going on,” said Migi.599Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXaCzKOKX0f
“How can you say that...?” whispered Hidari.599Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWMDgpjK7TD
Migi looked to her. She held tight to her skirt’s fabric, so tight than if she had just enough strength, she could rip right through it.599Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsd4BUswcr7
“How can you say that it’s not our business?” asked Hidari, her voice shaking with anger.599Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡudxVzTjdkd
She looked at Migi with eyes filled with pain.599Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhAAZUUd13E
599Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡW9vZ3TblqW
“Something is the matter, and I cannot just let him say that he has to do die without knowing why he said that. I’m going to look for him...and I don’t need your opinion, you don’t care anyway!”599Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsEnmSiVfXE
She then ran off, leaving Migi alone in the frigid winter snow.599Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2dkv0oZEKJ
599Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIiKjsBqVG8
A place where his heart seemed to belong.
A small house stood alone, or so it looked.599Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsMYB76EAwS
All the other houses looked vacant of any proof of inhabitants. Inside of the house, strange but beautiful paintings took their place on walls, accompanied by small cabinets and loose papers. Bookshelves covered in old books lined the walls. A desk and table held strange vials and herbs, along with ink and more loose papers.599Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBpZruR96Xa
In a small room lit by a fading fire, two figures sat.599Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXt0XOkho78
599Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLFcQSCxvt5
“Are you sure that it’s time?” began a voice of a woman. “What if it doesn't work? What if...”599Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡC4fWHU0NKx
“What if I’m wrong? I am never wrong,” began the voice of another woman.599Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡeyM4j9yv38
599Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXOieku20hH
The first woman remained silent.599Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsvRtQ2WyiU
599Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvGdwPFTPy7
“The tables have turned,” began the second woman. “Not only have they been separated, but so has everyone else. The children have been wrecked and ruined. The best thing to do is show them the mirror that we have been trying to hide from them for so long.”599Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡypg8ZpzElw
“I’m willing to take the risks that this will bring. Are you?”599Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡq7mOLYaBVn
The first woman sighed a shaky sigh.599Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡT8GjqzITLL
“Yes...I am,” she replied.
Migi sat on a bench in the small gazebo near the park. He could not sleep, and it wasn’t because of the frigid weather. His mind raced with thoughts of the events of that afternoon.599Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgRjsuHTuXe
599Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhjIkWYVqV7
Tori’s yells.599Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWdroWSKrAd
Hidari’s responses.599Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrTgm4a4m7O
Tori’s running away.599Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ82m7ZFOraz
Hidari’s anger.599Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTNQyb3zcSz
Their tears.599Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrytm1xUllJ
599Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYnoKxtoxXY
‘She’s right...I don’t care,’ thought Migi.599Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEoX9qgXfx5
599Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYBibAUJxRc
He looked to the sky. Snow fell silently, leaving Migi all alone with the voice inside his head.599Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡs8JzIwReSH
599Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ54f29wy7Wj
’However...for some reason, her saying it...it irked me...'599Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡh7gJt34DjO
599Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGhd0czVi6U
Something yanked at Migi’s jacket.599Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1tkSMpgrWY
He looked down.599Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡX5mCRY7MsQ
A small, golden creature with long ears and a tail. It had six wings, three on each side and was metallic.599Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcWeI3yyDb6
599Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡO8rzm6hcGA
“What do you want?” asked Migi, his voice tired.599Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBAKbiVaX0J
599Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡARmNcvJfNa
The creature did not respond, rather, it kept pulling at him. Migi sighed, getting up to follow the strange creature.599Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4WkVvHufUk
599Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡi8KSS0HJ3N
Migi arrived in a field that resided between the park and the gazebo.599Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡS8YxnG7hBJ
He spotted familiar faces. The faces of his classmates. He spotted his teacher.599Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYWPPW4oQhj
He spotted Tori.599Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0FHvJvosWp
He saw Hidari.599Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡeUSWNwZgxO
599Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhmCYwWb5rA
′What is everyone doing here? It’s the middle of the...′599Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3s2Q5Gba6T
599Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡE7IzPQxfyY
Migi’s thoughts were cut off.599Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwAqg0ElkQU
599Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTPKNPDZPUF
The ground began to shake and break from under him, a bright light shining on everyone.599Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZFfGKpR2kh
Screams of classmates filled the air as they began to fade into the light.
