     Hiro's eyes were stuck together with fatigue. It was a little hard to open his eyes. Why was it a little chilly? He felt super sore, too. But... Why? He got up, and stretched, eyes still shut. What a nice thing to wake up to... Birds chirping. --Wait a second. Is the window open? Hiro opened his eyes- Waaaaiiit a second. This wasn't his house. Why was he here?

     ...His brain wracked for an answer. Right, Ashi, looking for clues, confrontation... Separation. Hiro immediately began growling, fists clenched shut. His knuckles were practically white. You were gone. Because Hiro couldn't catch up! ...Why did your body fall limp? Were you drugged? When could you have possibly been drugged!? So many questions ran through his mind. What was Ashi going to do to you? --Hiro shouldn't just stand there. Right. Hiro put on a bold face and limped home. 

     He had a better idea than calling the police.

--------------time skip brought by The New Year! happy new year.---------------------

     You had a dreamless sleep. A deep fog clouded your mind. It felt a bit... Mucky. Certainly uncomfortable. You had to get up, whatever was pulling you down. You began slowly regaining consciousness, beginning with moving your stone cold, numb fingers, to cracking your toes against the edge of your shoes (or boots). The memories of the previous events flooded back immediately. You took a moment to recollect, as there wasn't much to do in your situation.

     ...Your situation. You looked around. You were in a desolate, dull brown room. There was a door in the distant corner of the room. You began to walk to it- You couldn't walk. What? You took a look at yourself. Oh, that makes so much more sense. You were chained to the wall! Absolutely fantastic. Not. How did you get into this situation? You remembered asking Ashi about the pictures, then passing out. ...How did you get here? Did someone take you!? 

     You groaned, stomach rumbling. You could really use one of Hiro's perfect sandwiches. ...Hiro! Is he here too? No, you already looked around the room. Could he possibly be in one of the other rooms? If so, you had to save him! The thought of saving Hiro filled you with... Determination. (I'M SO SORRY. THAT'S AN UNDERTALE JOKE. SORRY IF YOU HATE UNDERTALE. HATE ME INSTEAD.) 

     The door handle began jiggling. You instinctively went limp, slowing down your breathing. The door opened. Your heart was thumping loud with fear; you almost couldn't hear the clumping of footsteps that got louder and louder. A flashing noise was heard. Yeah, this was probably Ashi. Chuckling was heard. You nearly flinched as you felt thin fingers began stroking your hair. Ugh-- Creepy! ...Your mind quickly imagined Hiro lovingly stroking your hair. You tried your best not to blush. Now was not the time for thinking about that.

     More chuckling. It sounded more insane by each second. Yes- that sounded much like Ashi. But the creepiness only escalated higher. He kept repeating "soon" in hushed whispers, over and over again, rapidly. You were EXTREMELY uncomfortable. You dared to slightly open your eyes. You were greeted with the sight of baggy denim jeans, and a dark brown peacoat. (Is that what Ashi wore? Whatever. This is now what he wears.) Yeah, that's what Ashi wore today. Along with that scarf. This was DEFINITELY Ashi.

     You somehow became more uncomfortable. You spied a key loosely secured in the pocket of his coat. Okay- Quick thinking! Think fast! Get the key! Ashi was relatively close to you, hovering over your head, stroking your hair. Okay... Okay, now was the time to act! You violently jerked your head upwards, headbutting him in the nose VERY harshly. You prayed to the author that the action would be enough to make him pass out. 

     ...Ashi collapsed to the ground, knocked out cold. "Nice," You said to yourself, giving yourself an imaginary pat on the back. ...Okay. How were you going to get to the key now? Both your legs and arms were restricted to the wall. You sank lower on the chains, getting your left foot as close as possible to Ashi's pocket. If you were lucky... Yes! You SOMEHOW managed to get the key on your foot! And now... If you were STILL lucky... You mustered up all the strength you had, and kicked up against the metal restrictions. The key went flying in the air, and caught it with your hand. 

     Does physics even allow that? (Whatever, this story is badly written anyway. Anything can happen, only on the hub.) You didn't really care. You had the key. It took you a while, but you finally got the key in the lock that restrained your wrist. It took a lot of pain on your fingers, but they finally managed to twist open the lock. It snapped open. Good thing there was no restriction on your elbows, or else you'd really be stuck between a rock and hard place. (Or between a wall and metal bounds.)

     You unlocked the upper arm bounds, and then moved on to the rest. Ah-- Much better! You rolled your wrists around and stretched. You decided to reach into Ashi's pockets, fishing out whatever you could. You needed all the resources you could get. You obtained Ashi's phone, a few more keys (Ashi, get a keychain, please), and set foot outside the room.

     Your jaw dropped at the sight beheld to you. 


may or not make another chapter today. PS I am horrible at physics I literally tried to kick something up like reader did with the key IT DIDN'T WORK AT ALL. I DON'T CARE THOUGH. SORRY. NOT SORRY. JUST KIDDING I LEGIT AM SORRY.
