"I can't believe it" Cassey snickers reaching out to tickle Joon,

"Hush" he swatted her hands away smiling,

"So you guys are a couple" she questioned her blue eyes twinkling with mischief

"Well......Not yet" Joon scrunched his face up in confusion,

"What do you mean not....." she looks around like someone might hear them before continuing "yet, it's either you're a couple or not"

"It's complicated" he sighed massaging his eyes, lately he'd been feeling strange, it was neither bad nor good which was disturbing,

"What is? Emil asks as he sits with a thud deliberately scaring Cassey who's icy eyes turned almost white with anger,

Joon looked at her again, what was he forgetting, he had seen this somewhere before, where?, as he continued to maul over this, Cassey proceeds to explain the situation to Emil who kept glancing at Joon with an odd look in his eyes,

"Are you alright Joonie" Emil reached out to touch him, Joon unconsciously smacks his hands away,

Emil drew his hands back like he was burned Cassey stared, shocked at Joon's action,

"I-I'm sorry...are you okay"

"I should be asking you, you've been acting weird"

"I'm just—

"Don't say stressed, it's not stress it's something else, you aren't telling us and it all started when you met this Reon guy"

"What!! Don't be ridiculous"

"Am I? You haven't been sleeping well, you're not eating well either, you've become more guarded and jumpy, also this is the second time you're looking at me like I'm a monster of some sort" his brown eyes darkened daring Joon to lie,

"I...I"  Joon realized everything Emil said was true,

"Joon we've been friends for so long, you think I can't tell when you're acting weird, just because we over look it doesn't mean we can't tell" he gave Cassey a-back-me-up-look, she sighed and nodded in agreement,

"That's true Joon we've been worried about you"

"I know.....but really I'm fine"

"If you're fine then tell us what's wrong"

"It's..it's...it's not something I can say so easily"

"Then take your time" Cassey smiled, Emil wasn't happy but had to agree, it was Joon after all, they'd come this far he wasn't about to push him but had they come to a point where Joon couldn't trust them anymore,

"Yeah take your time, I just don't understand you, since when were things so hard to talk about or don't you trust us anymore, I gotta go" Emil stood up walking away,

"Emil" Joon and Cassey both  called out but he kept drifting further away, "Emil...Em-"

In his panicked state, Joon's sight suddenly blurred the scene before his eyes switched rather than his friends blue denim jacket and a bag pack slung on one shoulder, it was replaced with a blue armored man standing over another blood seeping out of the one on the floor where a golden dagger had pierced through, it went as fast as it came,

"Joon are you okay" Cassey runs over as his frame swayed, she grabbed his hands which had turned cold,

"Cassey...what did I do"

"It's okay, it's okay...he'll come around, he's just hurt that's all" she thought he was talking about Emil

"I'm sorry...I want to tell you guys but it's...it's just crazy you might think I'm crazy" he grabs her hand lest she walks away too and he sees something terrible,
