?:"Guh!"

Someone was coughing up blood and held a hand over a large wound on their stomach. It turned out to be a young man with (h/c) hair and (e/c) eyes. He tried to take a step back but his heel nearly slid off the edge of the surface he stood on. He looked over his shoulder and saw the deadly magma within the volcano.

He looked back and stared at the person that had wounded him.

?:"Why?! Why would you do this?! We were friends!"

His opponent raised a left hand that was dripping with the boy's blood. This hand belonged to a young man with jet black hair and glowing golden eyes.

??:"And I thank you for being my one and only friend, Yin. But unfortunately your kindness alone wasn't enough to save me from the darkness."

The wounded boy, now known as Yin, grit his teeth and saw the negative aura radiating off his old friend.

Yin:"No! I can still save you! Please!"

??:"You can't even save yourself. As your friend, I will end you here and now so you won't have to suffer from that dreadful wound of yours. And with you out the way, Union Academy shall reap their sow. The scars I've beared shall be proof of my tenacity to enact my revenge!"

He laughed with malice as black lightning flashed all around. Yin looked down and shut his eyes.

Yin: Everyone... I'm sorry.

He looked back up at his friend and held out the hand he used to cover his wound. His blood began glowing and so did the blood on his friend's hand. He looked down curiously before seeing a chain wrap around his hand.

??:"What's this?"

Yin:"A last ditch effort! You've gotten too strong for me to handle alone. And there's no way I can call for backup! But this will ensure that no one can escape with their life!"

??:"You..."

He realized what Yin was planning to do as Yin laughed and let his body fall backwards to the volcano.

??:"NOOOOOO!!"

He kicked off the ground and reached for Yin's hand, but just barely missed it and watched his old friend fall to his death with a smile. He fell right into it and the unknown boy felt his body searing with pain. He howled in pain as parts of skin turned to gray flakes that began floating away. He looked at his hands in horror and saw a glowing golden orb floating from the center of the volcano.

??:"Yin...?"

The orb shot off into the sky and his body began to completely fade away.

??:"So your heart has left... I suppose mine will too... But I swear on our strong hearts that we will both return! Union Academy will meet their end! Fate shall make it so! Your heart is strong and so is your body, but mine is as well! We are bound to meet again my friend! BWAHAHAHA!!!"

His body fully faded away and in his place was a glowing purple orb that swirled around before flying off in the opposite direction.

I fluttered my eyes open and sat up.

"I had that same dream again..."

I heard a knock at my door and I spoke up to let them in.
