Start part A
Zack runs into the school and runs to his class.
Zack: Hold it! I'm here! I'm not late! Huh...?
...
The classroom is empty.
Zack: There goes my reference... Where is everyone?
*Walking*
Zack: Dust?
Zack peeks out of the classroom and looks at the room number.
"Class B room 3"
Zack: This is the room...
RING!!!
GAH!!!
Zack's ears start ringing.
Zack: What's... Ahh!
FWOOSH!!!
GAHHH!!!
A strange force pulls Zack through the school halls.
BANG!!!
Zack: Ouch, my head!!!
Zack bangs his head on a locker.
Zack: Dammit!
Suddenly, he stops moving.
Zack: Gah... That hurt... What was that?
???: Away... Fake... Deadly....
Zack: I don't like that... Not a bit...
ACK!!!
Zack suddenly gets a pain in his stomach.
BLEAHH!!!
Zack vomits on the tiled floor...
Zack: Shit... What's happen-
BLEAAHHH!!!
Tears start streaming down Zacks Face.
Zack: It burns... why...? Why does it burn...? *Coughing*
BLEAAAHHH!!!
Zack: It won't... *gags* "What's happening to me?! This is hell!! Soon enough... I know...! I'm gonna..."
He thought.
BLEEEEAAHHHH!!!
AHHHHHHHHHHH!!!!
???: Sleep... And stay that way...
*Gasp*
Zack wakes up and opens his eyes.
...
Akiko: Thank goodness... I thought you were hurt. Of course, I knew that you weren't dead.
Zack: What... just happened? Where's...?
Akiko: It's okay now. Are you okay?
...
Zack: Yeah... I think I'll be fine... I've just... Got a headache...
...
Akiko: Ah... I get it.
Start part B
Zack: Get what?
Akiko: That "dream" you just had was all an illusion!
Zack: You know about it?
Akiko: I checked your heart rate. It was abnormally high, so it was just an assumption. But due to your reaction, I feel that I'm right?
Zack: Yeah... Right on the mark... It all felt so real...
Akiko: Well, I don't completely understand what you saw, but those tears of yours tell me that it was pretty bad.
Zack: Tears...?
Zack feels his face.
Zack: What the...? Why am I crying...?
Akiko: I haven't a single clue... But better yet, did you find the kid?
Zack: I did... For a moment... But then... She ran in front of that creature... She was going to be crushed!
Akiko: Zack...
Akiko pinches the bridge of her nose.
Akiko: The mother would have stopped... Idiot!
Zack: Wait... You mean...
Akiko: Your sacrifice was useless and unnecessary.
Zack: Seriously...?
Akiko: But hey, it'd look good on paper! "Human boy crushed by heartbroken mother due to his useless sacrifice."
Zack: You're making me seem heartless...
