The man coughed up blood, staring at me eyes wide open, and uttered one last word before his crystal vanished and all his life drained. "Y-you.." I wanted to scream, but i still couldn't move, or breath that well. I tried moving but my eyes slowly closed as i passed out with the last glimps of a guy and a girl, the guy in blue jeans, the girl in a long blue skirt, both in pitch black hoodie's the only other thing i could see clearly was a chrome skull on the guys hand, and the girl's leg. Then it all went black.

What felt like seconds later i awoken in a strange place, as i slowly opened my eyes i felt a burst of pain in my chest and i tried looking around, seeing a bunch of people all talking, and i turned the other way, only to be face to face with a pink haired, silver eyed girl who jumped back as she made eye contact with me. "EEP!"

"H-huh?.." i looked at the girl as i tried sitting up, but she pushed back down then stepped back. "Nuh-uh, you are not ready to get up...you are still injured.." "E-Ellie.." I tried again..i had to find my sister, i have to save her. "My boy...rest...you needant worry, we wont hurt you.." i struggled to look over to see an older looking man, it was him, they guy i saw before i blanked out, his clothing was the same. That skull, now staring at it i could see, it was a gem, almost fully engulfed in his body. He pulled over a chair and dismissed the girl tending to me. "I know you must be confused, scared...angry...worried..truth is i can't blame you, im guessing you where with the female we found dead?..." I could feel it, anger, but despair..it was like i could feel my blood rush. "Ellie..." I put my hand on my chest, it felt different..shallow, but filled by something.

"Oh...I dont believe we have been properly introduced, I am Hurimu, a higher up staff of this fine group we have." The man seemed to lean on the chair as he pulled out a cigarette and lit it with his breath. "I..uh..I'm Shiro, w-what was that you just did?". "Hm?" He seemed to look at me strangely as he puffed out some smoke as spoke. "Gems, don't tell me you don't know?" "I..I do, but only that a gem is a special privledge some worthy people can get, giving a wide varity of strengths.." Hurimu glared at me, "While im glad to hear some knowledge, you are only scratching the tip of the ice man, and to think, that gem you have.." "T-this?..it hurt but i forced my body to sit up and i put my hand on my chest feeling a smooth surface.
