Crystal Seal

Epilogue

"OI KAI WAKE UP!"

Kai soon woke up in shock as he felt someone yelled at him and shook his body by the shoulder aggressively. Eh?! I've been sleeping for this whole time? He thought as he opened his eyes. "Ace, you can stop it now, he is awake," a familiar voice was heard. "Looks like our homie, Kai, is having a good sleep. In the middle of school." Kai glance around his surroundings, rubbing his eyes. The tables, the chairs, the whiteboard and lockers are all.. cleared. Noticing the orange ray of light, he questioned himself, "I had been sleeping for a very long time? At school?" He murmured to himself, glancing back at Zenil.

"Oh.. haha I apologize, Zenil," Kai chuckled nervously just as Ace let go of him. "How long have I been sleeping here?" He asked, leaning his back against the chair. "The whole day I guess?" Zenil answered with annoyance. "The teacher had been calling you for like.. What? 100 times? Yet, you're still asleep," he added.

Sleeping for the whole day?! What the actual hell? Jeez I guess I am that sleepy Kai sighed and held both his fingers together. So.. it was just my imagination and my dream. The crystal seal.. The war... Everything was just a dream..? "Oho, looks like Kai is that one work machine huh? You've been staying late at night for the past few days," Ace chuckled, expecting Kai's reaction to be upset with him.

"Typical Ace.. wanting my reaction to be upset with you. I am immune with all your words anyway," Kai said, giving him a jerked face. "True, I've been overworking myself, it is because of a project and my wifi broke," he added. "So.. since you've been asleep for the whole day, how are you feeling?" Zenil questioned, crossing his arms. "I feel fresh now," Kai replied.

"Fresh as a daisy, that's what Zenil will say," Ace guessed, resting himself on Kai's table. "Haha.. good guess but no," Zenil said. "Lovely dream I suppose, Kai. Say, I am curious. Do you remember your dream?" Ace began, slamming his hands on Kai's table with full force. "Please?"

Just another typical Ace, giving somewhat puppy eyes for his curiosity. Kai startled for a while when Ace slammed his table. "Ace! Learn your manners. Kai just woke up from his deep sleep," Zenil sighed. "Roger that, boss!" Ace giggled and gave him a salute. Kai's vision flashes back to the two commanders in his adventure, just like his imagination. "So, do you remember your dream?" Ace asked again.

Kai nodded his head, "Of course. It was one.. Long of a story to tell," he muttered, looking at the window next to him as the ray of the sunset passed through them. "A crazy one.. Actually," he added.

"Woah! Please do tell us, Kai. The stage is yours," Zenil said, and began to get curious about it. Zenil then grabbed two chairs from the classroom and placed it next to Kai. Zenil sat down, adjusting himself, he was ready to listen. "Wait!" Ace called, just as Zenil lent him a seat. Kai and Zenil looked at each other with confusion. "Let me grab some snacks since it's gonna be a long story! Gonna go to the cafeteria! AND DON'T YOU DARE START BEFORE I RETURN," Ace said excitedly, pacing towards the door to the cafeteria.

"Haha, that Ace never changes, always grab some snacks before everything," Zenil commented. "I agree with you," Kai chuckled and rested. "It is good to see the three of us are still together.." He murmured, remembering his dream surely, where Ace betrays them and sacrificed himself. "Hm? Whatever do you mean Kai? What do you mean you're happy just because the three of us are together?" Zenil questioned, tilted his head with suspicion. "You will know it soon. It will be a long story, remember?"
