"AAAAAARGHH!!!!"


"HEEEEELPPP!!!"


"PLEASE STOOOOPPPPPP!!!!"


Terrifying cries echo in a wide place with prison cells. The place is clean and learned from the people here that this place is called a lab.


The sound of chains being dragged and a trail of blood as if someone has been dragged is not unfamiliar in this place. Soon, someone will clean that trail of blood.


I could not remember when it will end. Why are we subjected to such cruelty? Is it because we're spirits?


No! I can still remember how different beings experimented on us. I'll make them pay!!!


"Agni?" A hoarse voice of a child called unto me. Her black hair is messy and her dead eyes filled with despair and tiredness can be seen.


Even after experiencing such a horrifying thing, this normal human child is commendable to be able to hold on.


I ignored her just like always, she stands up and drags the heavy chains put on her small arms and feet and sat beside me.


"I feel cold and scared." She said without any strength in her voice.


I can't help but be sad and let her do what she wants. A spirit like me didn't want to interact with humans, but do I even have a choice in this situation?


I pat her head and blink. The next scene that shows to me is the burning flames surrounding the once white lab.


It's getting hard to breathe. My chest feels painful as if someone stabbed but there's no stab wound.


In the raging flames, I can see two children, the child is crying while holding the other child.


Ahhhh....

That's right...

The painful feeling in my chest....

So, this is what being sad is like...

Please wake up! I'm sorry I'm mean to you! I'm sorry I can't save you in time if I can I want to exchange my life!!

Please! Don't leave me alone! It's so cold and empty...


"GASP!!!" A fiery red-haired man woke up full of sweat.


He catches up his breath as tears fall down his eyes. He gritted his teeth in anger as an invisible heatwave surrounded the area. The place that is full of plants where he was started to dry out because of the heatwave.


Agni calms down his heart and lowered the heat he was releasing.
