You and Zerachiel continue your journey to the next level, Which you heard it called 'hallucination'? You hope it's nothing too..deep.

With your journal in your hand protectively, You both walked side to side in comfortable silence. The only sound you hearing are you both footsteps against the grass and some..glittering or shinning sounds from the distance.

The place you both are in right now is simple but confusing - as you couldn't put a word for it.

You peaked over Zerachiel, trying not to looked like you're staring at him. His hair are now neatly combed - probably aunties did - he isn't wearing his cloak at the moment, or.. you havent returns him the cloak yet-

Suddenly shivers ran down your spines, you frozen in your place. Zerachiel was keep walking 'til he realized you aren't following.

"Are you okay, traveller?" He asked, voice full of concern laced with a bit of curiosity.

"Uhm...yeah. I just felt..weird." You lied easily enough,

"Yeah.."

You could tell the lie wasn't going through him at all. You know him, he always knows how you're feeling and such, he's not a human, Y/N! You mentally reminded yourself.

"What are we doing here?" You blurted out. "I feel weird, and I think someone is watching us. I don't see anyone around." You added. He turned his head back, facing front and looked around.

"I don't feel anything" Zerachiel shrugged, looking at you without turning around fully, You just sighed in confusion.

It seemed that everything goes normal when there's an unexpected noise. The air became suddenly cold - colder than usual, and a chill ran down every inch of your skin. As if something is trying to crawl out of your spine. And you know, you felt uncomfortable - very much so, and it seems it's more powerful than you thought.

You looked up again and you swore you could've sworn you saw a shadow in the trees.

Maybe you're hallucinating.. wait.. isn't that's it? Didn't Zerachiel said something about hallucination?? You don't think you remember.

Suddenly you could feel cold fingers intertwined yours carefully 'til their palm pressed against yours. You looked down at your hand to find it together with Zerachiels, making a confused face.

"It's fine" Zerachiel said, quietly. He started walking again, "The hallucination are most of based on your fears,, or what bad happened in your reality. I supposed you have none of these?" He titled his head to the side, pursing his lips as he looked at your expression.

With still confused face. You can't figure out what this thing is.. as you stared down at the intertwined hands. It doesn't feel threatening and doesn't even seem like it will hurt you. Its just..so cold..but..you guess its also nice to hold hands with somebody.

"..it's really,, Really cold,," You commented after few moments of hesitation.

"Im afraid i cant feel such things to understand you but," Zerachiel paused as he squeezed your hand lightly. "I will try" He finished.

You gave him a tiny small smile then immediately frowned once again. You look down at your feets as they walks, avoiding eye contact. This time Zerachiel took this opportunity to glance at you from the corner of his eyes before smiling softly. He held the hand tighter.
