Kawaiitashi's POV

Hitaki and I slowly dragged our feet moving closer to the windows with every second that passed, every step was laborious as our minds were occupied and littered with thoughts of danger. Distracted from the objective, my eyes wavered around the darkened hallway. Both Hitaki and I were relying on the light of my phone as Hitaki didn't have one. The light suddenly dimmed, I turned the screen to face me and tapped it. Better, I thought, turning my phone away to take a look at my surroundings again.

Only then did I notice that my arms were shaking...my whole body was trembling like an earthquake within me. Hitaki stared in shock as the floor beneath me had started to disappear to be replaced with a toxic black liquid. I fell heavily to the ground with my feet replaced by an unknown substance that creeped up my body consuming my legs, hips then waist, liquidating each part of me. I reached out to Hitaki, stretching all the limbs in my arms and hands to the limit, wishing for her hands to interlock with mine and pull me away from this.

Pulling and tugging me unsuccessfully she started to scream and cry for help. At that point the unknown substance was crawling up my neck and into my mouth then down my throat - concealing my shouting. My vision blurred and my senses became severely augmented from the lack of oxygen to my brain.

Hitaki...anyone?? Save me...

Hitaki's POV

Still pulling and tugging on her limp and helpless body I begged and wished to free her. Tears streaming down my face...I couldn't save her.

Zia's POV

Hinata and I strode through the corridors trying to stay positive.

"Hinata...I heard screaming coming from...downstairs."

She didn't reply immediately and it felt like an hour had passed when she did:

"Forget the exit, we've got to see if our friends are okay. Tonight, we will make it out ALIVE!"

Speeding down the stairs in the same fashion as before, we came to a stop at the foot of the stairs... Hitaki looked abnormal - she was VERY pale. She was staring at the wall: delirious from tears that shed onto the ground like heavy rain.

A pool of what looked like oil started to collect in the shape of Kawaiitashi's body...her neck was crooked and bent awkwardly to the side and her eyes were white as the untouched snow outside.

Hinata pulled Hitaki away from the demonic figure hastily. It looked up and smiled a toothy grin before it started crawling towards us in the same way a young child would.

My vision was fixed on her and I couldn't move...Kawaiitashi?? Why do you look like this and what happened to you??

Hinata's POV

Carrying Hitaki on my back, Zia ran beside me. Kawaiitashi was close behind us running with supernatural speed and agility acquired from a demon.

We chose to stay in the girls' toilets where we thought we would be safe...
