I stand to my feet,


    looking behind me


    in a frantic manner.


    I see no one.


    “Tsukino!” Someone


    calls.


    Standing before me


    is Tetsu and I scream,


    “W-where did you come


    from!?”


    “I came from the cave.”


    Tetsuya answers,


    nonchalantly.


    I try to calm down my beating


    heart, huffing, “I hate this!”


    The tale has been illicitly lifted; should you spot it on Amazon, report the violation.


    “We shouldn''t idle…”


    Tetsuya whispers,


    staring at something


    behind me.


    I stare back, seeing


    the Ronin who was


    chasing me from


    earlier.


    He stands on top of


    the hill watching us.


    I take a step back,


    my body trembles


    in great fear.


    “Follow me.” Tetsuya


    insists, grabbing my


    wrist as we both


    walk into the


    cave.


    Inside the cave, it''s dark


    but the only sources of light


    comes from torches hanging on


    the stone walls to the right and left


    of us.


    Strange enough,


    I have a feeling


    of seeing this


    place before.


    But I don''t think this


    place was in my past


    reality.
