315 SOH (1/2)
-Cemetery-
It's raining like the clouds are crying for us.
”Give them, Oh Lord, your peace and let your light shine upon them. Amen.” The priest's ending remark...
I don't know what happened, they just finally showed up and I thought that everything will be ok. Now, they're gone again. This is f*cking crazy... I now know why I didn't feel sadness before... maybe because I know deep inside me that they're still alive and right now, I'm pouring all out because I know that they're not coming back. I hate myself and I hate everything that happened. Now, my sister and I are alone... again.
”Scy, no matter what happens, I'm here for you.” Akko... her hand... is warm. How can she keep up with stupid me and my stupid decisions?
Everyone is here. Even my sister can't stop crying like I do but this isn't her first time. This all happened so fast and I can't believe it. Dad and mom, right there... just disappeared. I don't know what I'm going to do now. The SOS explained that everything is all right now and under control but we're not going to be alright soon... not now.
I... let go of Akko's hand and helped my sister inside the car. I looked back and just let a weak smile to everyone. I think... I have enough of the game. I think this is the time for me to face the reality once again.
-Aries Home-
”Uh uh... I don't think you're getting the point here, Aries. Your parents didn't just save humanity but also the world of New Life Online. I know you're depressed right now but this isn't just about you. You have to play the game.” I can tell that Azzie's really serious about this savior non-sense.
”If I'm really the savior non-sense you're talking about then tell me why I can't even f*cking save my parents?! Do you think you and your organization full of freaks can just tell me what to do with my life?! My sister and I are doing fine before you guys started showing up and the sh*tshow happened. Get the hell out of my house and I don't want to see anyone of you.” I don't know... I know that it's not their fault but I'm so sick of this...
”I understand where you're coming from but-”
”I don't care, Azzie. Just leave us alone.”
”Bro, please. Don't-” Marie...
”If you want to go with her, I won't stop you. I want you to be safe but I don't want to be with them either. I... am quitting from all this.”
”You're making a big mistake here. If you want to die alone, so be it but I won't let your sister be in danger. Let's go, Marie. You also know that Marie's hurting more than you do right now with you being like this. I hope you find what you're looking for.” She grabbed Marie's hand... at first, she tried to stop Azzie but then...
”I love you, bro. Please think about our future.” Future huh... I don't think I want to be in it anymore.
-After a month-
”One new message.”
”Yow! Scy! We're exploring the Volcano! I hope you're doing ok. We need you.” Elou...
It's been a month since I stopped playing the game and without anyone. Oh man, what to do next?
*DOORBELL SOUNDS*
What is it this time?
I walked towards the door and-
”I told you, we're not ordering any...” Wait, what is this?
”I'm a courier from SOH. This is a card for you. This is the formal pass to enter the biggest gaming center for this whole country. Everyone is a must to gather there.” How big is it to be called the biggest gaming center. They changed their name from SOS to Saviour of Humanity, after all, they already saved me.
”Not interested. I'm sure others might need it.”
”This is a must, sir. You haven't heard the news about the coming rupture sir?” I think I heard of it before but what does it have to do with me?
”Fine if it means you can just leave me alone.” He gave it to me and it looks like a keycard.
I do remember this keycard. I just... don't remember it anymore. From a dream maybe?
”Thank you, have a nice day.” I bid my farewell but I don't think I'm going.

-Aurora's Home-
(Zia's POV)
”Hey, puffy-head. It took me a while but I got you a gift!”
”I told you I am doing well now and I don't need fruits anymore, sis.”
It's been a month now since I started walking again. I don't know how but after the islander's invasion and after I woke up, I started to feel my legs again. I don't know what happened but I think God really heard my prayers. In just an instant, I can finally walk again just like in the game.
”A skater? Really? Are you making fun of me, sis?” Seriously...
”What? I don't think it's inappropriate now that you can walk straight. I think it's time for us to go outside and have a sister boding while eating pizza!” Really, sis?
”I don't think that's a good idea but who cares! Give me those skaters and let's get skated! No pizza for me, lots of fats.” So, yeah, we headed towards the door but-
”Hello there! These are the cards for both of you. This is a formal pass to enter the biggest gaming center for this whole country. Everyone is a must to gather there.”
”Is this about the Rupture thingy from the news?” I asked.
”Yes mam and please be there as soon as possible.” I guess it looks like it's important.
”Yes, we'll be there. Puffy-head, I don't think we have the time to skate. We need to be there as soon as possible. Thank you, officer.” Wow, I didn't know sis can be this formal to someone...
