       "ACHOO!"

      Ayaka flinched at the disgusting noise that came from the bathroom stall as she leaned against the sink. Nana had had to go to the bathroom, and she could be a little annoying when she had to go. Lucky for them, there was a library near by, and all three had no trouble finding the girls bathroom.

        Well, Naomi was busy reading manga books in the teens' section. The minute they walked through the library's automatic glass doors, she was already making her way towards the shelves; telling them that she used to always hang out at this particular library.The librarian was busy checking out books and whatnot, so her and Nana went unnoticed.

          Nana was taking her time in the biggest bathroom stall, occasionally sneezing and sniffling. Had she come down with a cold or something? She's been doing it all morning. Well, it kinda was cold that morning, and winter was on its way there. The thin jackets they wore would barely keep them warm even now! And Naomi didn't even have a jacket, she was still dressed in her school uniform.

         Ayaka looked down at her stolen, black watch. It was about 10:30 AM. When they had escaped the abandoned building from that monster-girl-thing,  it had been around 4 or 5:00; the dawn slowly creeping up on them. So for the past hours they've been through before they came across the library, they had been wondering the streets that were slowly beginning to get busy with cars and pedestrians within each passing hour. Occasionally stopping to huddle together to keep warm in places that nobody would look and find them, shivering as if they just emerged from the North Pole. So no doubt one of them had caught a cold, and it just had to be the youngest of them all.

         "ACHOO!" Then what followed was another sniffle and the flushing sound of the toilet. Ayaka sighed with relief, finally she was done!

        "Geez, Nana, what were you doing in there?" Ayaka complained, covering up her nose with her shirt.

        Nana only sneezed in reply as she came out of the stall, and slowly walked up to the sink and began to wash her hands.

        "Oh my God." Ayaka ranted, slightly coughing from the apparent odor coming from the bathroom stall. She quickly made her way out the bathroom. "Hurry up and finish, I'll be out here!" She called over her shoulder as she ran for the hills. Nana only rolled her eyes and yawned tiredly.

          Naomi had her face buried in her book as she comfortably sat in a bean bag chair. There was not much people in the library at this time, considering how early it was. Only a few people were on the computers downstairs and one or two quietly shuffling through the bookshelves on the first floor, where she was, but outside the teens section. Where she was silently reading a Shugo Chara manga in peace. She always loved going to the library.

            Just then, she heard a small commotion coming from the front. She dismissed this and kept on reading, until she heard two familiar voices coming from the front. Two oddly familiar voices.

         Naomi gradually lifted her face out of the manga she was reading and looked around her. She was in a closed space, four long shelves of books surrounded her and three comfortable seats and a rounded table. The voices were very familiar, as if she had heard them all her life, but they were slightly faint and she couldn't really make them out much. Curiosity getting the best of her, she crawled, yes, crawled where she could peek through one of the book shelves. She had a habit of crawling to places inside the library, she had a weird fondness of the soft carpeted floors. This made her look like she was nothing but a small child and she was often given weird looks, and despite the fact that she was beaten by her parents because of this, she still liked to do it.
