Start part A
Akiko: Alright, since this city takes place inside of your own mind, you're free to stay wherever you want.
Zack: Are you sure this is okay?
Akiko: Of course! Live wherever!!!
Zack: Okay... See you...
Akiko: Indeed!
Akiko walks away.
Zack: Damn... Where should I go?
*Walking*
Zack observes his surroundings, looking for a comfortable place to stay.
Zack: "Wait... If I'm in a coma... Does sleeping really matter here? And what about food?"
He thought.
...
???: So many... There are so many unanswered questions...
Zack: What the...?
Zack looks back and sees a girl with brown hair.
Zack: Who are you?
???: My name is Ashley. What's yours?
Zack: My name is Zack Costa. It's nice to meet you, Ashley.
Ashley: Yeah. Anyway, you're human, aren't you?
Zack: Hm? Of course... At least I think I am...
GRIP!!!
Zack: The hell?!
Ashley: Thank God.... This place is horrible... It's full of monsters...
Zack: Um... Are you okay?
Ashley looks up at Zack with tears streaming down her face.
Ashley: No... I'm not okay... Because I just died...
Zack: You... Died? But you're right here...
Ashley buries her face into Zack's chest.
Ashley: No... In the real world... They unplugged me...
Zack: What?! How long have you been here?!
Ashley: I don't know how long I've been here, but... I guess... Seven years?
Zack: Seven years?! But...
Ashley: I'm grateful to you... Zack...!
Zack: What do you mean...? We've never met before.
Ashley looks back up at Zack.
Ashley: No... You saved my life. Because... If I committed suicide... I really would've died...
Start part B
Zack: What do you...?
Ashley: A few days back... All I saw was darkness... It was so dark and quiet... And I had no one to talk to... It was horrible!
...
Zack pulls Ashley into an Embrace.
Zack: It's okay... You're not there anymore...
Ashley: But... I'm dead...
Zack: Not here. You're not dead here.
Ashley: Thank... Thank you...! Oh... Were you looking for a place to stay?
Zack: Yeah, I was...
Ashley: I know about this apartment complex... It's really nice...
...
Zack thinks for a moment.
Zack: Sure... Why not? Lead the way, Ashley!
Ashley: Okay... Let's go!
