I tried to open my eyes but... but I can't open it.

I... I can't breathe! My lips are sealed together and my nose is plugged by something cold. my whole body is freezing cold!

After doing my best, I was able to open my mouth but my lips left wounds from forcing them to open. The thing on my nose suddenly started to melt. I was able to breathe finally! I thought I would die from that.

I opened my eyes and it's all hazy. My body's so stiff that I can't even move my fingers. Where am I and what on earth is happening?!

I tried to calm myself and waited for a while and I... I think I can move now. I slowly moved my hands and I can tell that my whole body is wet and I'm so cold.

I heard a high pitched ring inside my ears, looks like my senses are starting to work again. Then the sound is getting louder.

It's... It's not normal noise, I can hear people crying and shouting looking for help! What the hell is going on?!

I looked around and it seems that I'm inside a half-opened capsule, am I in some kind of futuristic sh*t? Everything is unusually surreal. I slowly got out of the capsule and removed the helmet thing on my head which is totally soaked.

I'm... I'm inside a lab.

*BANG BANG*

I heard someone banging on the door from the other side. I stood up trying my best not to fall. I looked at the glass in the middle of the door and...

It's... Akko!

"H... ugh... h..." I can't say a word. It's like my throat is dried as hell.

Wait... how can I unlock this?! I checked the room and there's a keycard on the table. The room is covered in dust and molds. This place looks like it hasn't been taken cared of for a very long time.

I tried sliding the card to the keyhole but it won't do anything! The power is out! What did I even try.

"Scy... use... crowbar..." I heard her faint voice but I think I got it. I saw one beside the capsule.

I stuck the crowbar to open the door and even my body hasn't recovered yet, with good force, I was able to open the door.

"Scy! Thankfully, you're ok!" Akko, my love, hugged me.

I kissed her even with my lips are bleeding. The feeling is so different from the game. Staying for a hundred years inside, I can say that this is the first time I've felt this strong emotion for the first time. Wait... what am I even saying?!

"We need to get out of here fast. This place is not safe for all of us." I can tell that she's really panicking right now and everyone around us.

"Wai... Wait. Relax, can you explain what is happening?" I asked.

"There's no time to explain! I saw people getting hacked to death by some weird looking people. They look like elves inside the game but this is different. This is real. If we die here, we'll die forever." She said crying. No... no... I can't let that happen!

"Don't worry. You have me. Let's go." Trying to give her hope to survive. I held her hand tight. I will not let anyone harm Akko.


We went outside and everyone is in a panic. People are running towards one direction and it seems that we are going to the top of the building.

"It looks like the people you are talking about are from below and they are heading towards the top. Let's go there for now and let's see what will..."

"GAAHHH!" What the hell?! She's right, three long-eared humans are here slaughtering people! A person died from a single stab from the back. They're catching up!

"We need to get out of here fast. Let's go!" I exclaimed and both of us are now running towards the stairs.

In an instant, I felt tremendous pain and upon checking it... my... my arm?! My right arm that is holding Akko's hand was cut off! This is... this is real!

"Oops, it looks like there will be no more lovey-dovey moment this time." I looked at my back and they caught Akko! There are five of them now!

"Let me go!" She cried! Damn it!

"KYAAAAH!" One of them slapped Akko while holding her hand! The force of the hit made Akko lose her strength and almost fell but the guy is still holding her hand and she's hanging now!

"F*CK YOU!" I held the freaking crowbar tightly and tried to smash it to the head of one of them but...

A loud noise echoed through my left ear and I fell to the floor. F*ck... what happened... All is getting hazy again...

"Say goodbye to your sweetheart because you're next." The guy kicked the wall and it shattered creating a hole. Outside... is bright red...

"Don't worry. She'll just burn to death outside. Everyone here will die!" Ugh... I can't move...

He grabbed Akko's neck and then slowly lifted her up! I saw how Akko tried to struggle while she's trying to gasp for air! He's going to drop her! Damn you, Sh*t! You will all pay for this! You will all pay!

"Goodbye, little girl." Before he drops her... Akko stopped struggling and just smiled...

"AHHHHHH!" I shouted in anger and pain. I gave it all and stood up trying my best to catch her hand before she falls but it was too late... I saw her fall looking at me while being devoured by flames...

Akko...

-Aries' Home-

*HEAVY BREATHING*

"Bro?! Are you ok?" It's Mari... another same nightmare... Every time I dream of it, it feels so real like it's not just a dream but some kind of like experience I don't want to remember but it still keeps on haunting me after I stopped playing and the old geezer died. His words keep ringing in my head.

"I'm sorry, Mari. I think I startled you again because of my shouting." She's really troubled by my nightmare. She said that I shout words she can't understand every time I have that nightmare.

"It's alright but are you sure it's ok? It's been a few weeks now and I'm seriously getting worried." I can tell that she's really worried about my wellness.

I tried my best to calm her down again. Hopefully, I will be able to play soon and this nightmare will finally stop because, in the game, I never had a dream.

After we've got the news that the old man died, everyone can't believe it. Mari cried for days. She said that the old geezer was like a father to her when I was not with her... At that time, I asked myself, did I do the right thing? I don't know but deep inside me, I want to know the meaning of the old geezer's last words.

It stated in the news that he got a heart attack but that's just it. No investigations happened and they just declared that he died naturally. Dying is part of life but it doesn't make any sense. He even had this plan but why... why leave everything all of a sudden?

I thought, he was scheming something at first and when Mari decided to visit him in his funeral, we saw... I saw his body. It's definitely him. His wife was there crying... she lost the love of her life and being there... makes me more guilty. I felt like I'm the reason why this happened to him. Was it my fault?

While we're about to leave, his wife stopped me and just said, "Be careful, my husband did this for you. Someone killed him." Then she let go of me. I wasn't even able to say anything.

After a month about that terrible news, I barely played the game. Everyone was worried but I told them that my sister needs me but in reality, after that event, I wasn't able to concentrate, it's like my mind has lots of meaningless thoughts that is crushing my soul. I finally stopped playing weeks ago and that's when the nightmares started. I visited a couple of psychiatrists without telling Mari to not worry her but no one was able to help me. They're saying some useless ideas like, probably, it may be from my past life but they said that past life regression is rejected as treatment. Though even if what they said is true, it doesn't make any sense to me and there's no way that's true.

I decided to get out of my bedroom and prepare for dinner and yes, Azzie is still with us just watching something on TV again.

*DING DONG* I think we have a visitor, it's like eight pm in the evening, who would visit us around this time.

"Uhmmm... hello?" I heard Mari opened the door while I can tell with her voice that she's clueless of who the person is.

"We're looking for Mr. Aries Kim. We have an arrest warrant and he's under arrest." That didn't sound so good... I asked myself if I did something wrong but nothing comes up to mind... other than being related to the death of the old geezer.

"Are you sure? I mean... he's here but he doesn't go out that much..." Why should you be so honest, my dear little sister.

"AWWW!' I heard some kind of pushing or something so I rushed to see if everything is ok. The guy is already holding Mari's arms while the other guy found me.

"Hey, take it easy. No need to hurt my sister. I will go with you as long as you leave my sister unharmed." Trying to stay away with the man in front of me.

"The girl will come with us too. Don't do anything stupid or both of you will get..."

"Both of them will what?" Azzie interrupted.

*BZZZZZ* "Another hostile in..." The guy tried to call somebody but...

*CRACKS* Azzie out of nowhere grabbed the arm of the man in front of me and then she used her shoulder to twist his elbow dropping the walkie-talkie! After that...

*BAAAAAAM!* She lifted him up and then slammed him to the floor knocking him unconscious with just that! Holy sh*t what is going on?!

*DRAWING GUN SOUND*

*BAAAAAAM!* The guy that is holding Mari's hand tried to draw his gun out but Azzie was able to reach him kicking his face using her knee knocking him back while destroying the door! She needs to teach me that badass move! She has to pay for the damage though.

"We need to get out of here. Wait for me outside." What?!

"What the hell is happening Azzie!" I exclaimed but we're still clueless like hell of what is going on so we did what she asked us to do... wait... I smell something burning!

*BOOOOOOOM!* She came out of the house and I think I know now what she just did! She started a fire to burn our house!

"What the hell?! Why did you do that?!" I may be thankful for her saving us but she just started a fire to burn our house!

"I'll explain later, for now, get in the car. All of your important belongings are here so no need to worry." We entered the car and there's a bag with all our important documents and stuff, even our bank account... but our house!

"And where are you taking us?" I asked. I held Mari's hands to calm her down but she's trembling in fear. Her arm has bruises from that guy that held her hand. I hugged her but I still can tell that she's still scared.

"I told you, I will answer all of your questions but for now, shut the hell up." Is this still Azzie... What the hell is happening?!
