Tsukasa Pov

I groaned as I got out of my bed, I was sore and tired, I was standing around for so long yesterday. I got changed and headed out to the court yard.

"Tsukasa!! There you are  I've been looking for you!" Mizuki scoffed.

"Sorry, Mizuki, I guess I got up late." I sighed, Mizuki smiled and waved as she walked away.

I sat at a bench, I don't how to explain it. I just feel off... Like something is wrong. But what...

"What's wrong?" I hear a voice say  I didn't recognize the voice, but when I turned around no one was there.

I'm so confused, I swear I heard something, maybe I really am being haunted. I lean back and look up at the sky, it was clear, not a single cloud. I sorta wish there was cloud, it's to bright out. Way to bright. I turn around again to double check, no one again, of course no one, why did I expect it to change. This is stupid, so stupid, I just want to relax, not deal with this weird, crazy shit. 

"Are you okay?" I hear the voice from behind me again, but of course when I look no one. I look at the ground, at my feet. That voice... I've heard it before, I know I have, but when. When. When...

Then it hit me. Rui. That voice was Rui's. But we killed him, we did. We- I.... I saw his dead body, not moving, not breathing. So how... How am I hearing him right now. Either I'm being haunted, I don't believe in ghosts and stuff... So I guess I'm just going crazy.

Rui sigh and look up. I'm crazy huh.
... Or ...
He.. Never died.

We didn't kill him, he faked it! But that means if he did fake it, and I'm hearing his voice. He would be here. In the kingdom right now. I quickly stand up and quickly glance around the area, then I starts looking around, so... I am crazy. He's not here. He couldn't have gotten that far, could he? I don't want to think I'm going crazy, but I probably am... I hate even having that thought, that thought that I am going crazy.

-

For the next for days, maybe a little over a week, I keep hearing the same questions repeat, over and over in Rui's voice.

"What are you doing" "are you okay" "what's wrong" "how are you"

It's so annoying. Everyday, I feel like I hear them more. I want it to stop. I don't like Rui, I don't like his voice, I don't how he looks.

And I almost forgot to mention... His dead body. I can't get that image out of my head. Him laying there... Lifeless.. Maybe I really am being haunted, he's probably laughing his add of right now.

-

It's been 2 weeks. And it stopped? I haven't heard him at all today, it amazing. Silence. Maybe he got bored, after I stopped reacting to it, I just started ignoring it, I got used to it I guess. I looked up and smiled.

I get up and walk to a clearing in the forest. It looked so pretty. The way the sun lit up the area my shinning through the trees. The patches of flowers a over the place, the sound of birds chirping. And the clear and beautiful river that near by makes a beautiful sound as the water moves down the stream and splashes on rocks.

I've always admired this place. Rui showed me this place, years ago, this is also the place where we killed him. But still, some how this place was still relaxing. I will admit, it felt better with Rui.
But Rui is a monster, a traitor.

"That's rude." I turn around.

Akito Pov

Mizuki wa laying down on a sofa.
"Tsukasa has been acting weird lately, don't you think?" Mizuki looked at me when she said that.

I nod. "He has been, maybe we should ask him."

"No use, I tired, he convinced me that he was fine, just tired."

I look at Mizuki and sigh. "Typical." I looked down and grunted. 'Tsukasa what's wrong?' Tsukasa is strong he is probably fine. Probably... Most likely. I don't blame him. Something about the kingdom, has just seemed off lately. I'm sure it'll be fine tho. What could possibly be wrong.. Right? I sound stupid. If course something is wrong.

"I saw Tsukasa heading in the direction of clearing last time I saw him, maybe we should head over there?" Mizuki stood up. "Akito? Hello? Should we?" I sighed.

"Okay.. Sure. Do you remember how to get there? Because I haven't been there since... You know. Rui."

Mizuki looks down but responds. "Yea, I know how to get there, don't worry!"

And with that, me and Mizuki exited the castle, had started heading for the clearing. Hoping to find Tsukasa, and maybe even what was wrong with him.

Tsukasa is strong. I know that nothing small would bother him, so it was something big that was bugging him.

Me and Mizuki made small talk when walking there. I ended up ignoring them half way through the walk. They poked me and called me annoying and rude, but I'm used to it. Tsukasa and Mizuki will always say stuff like that time me. It's usually a joke. Usually. I feel sometimes it's probably not a joke, but I don't really care, they're my friends. I feel myself smile a little. But quickly stop.

Me and Mizuki made it to the clearing, but what we saw. Wasn't good.

A tall figure standing in front of Tsukasa, Tsukasa was frozen in place, his back turned to us, he was facing the figure, once we were able to get a better view of the figure we saw..

"Rui...?" Tsukasa's words were so quiet, that we were barley able to hear what he said. But the way me and Mizuki looked at each other, we knew, we both knew. What Tsukasa said, and the figure was.
