Strange dreams and voices

She felt like she was floating in her sleep. She opened her eyes to see herself in the middle of space. Suddenly, she found herself in the forest. The trees were line up, its branches resembling an arc. Awed at its beauty, she walked further deep into the forest only to end up in the meadow.

In the midst of a meadow full of tall grasses and flowers, a couple stood there smiling at each other. The little girl didn't how she got there but nonetheless she watched what will happen.They exchanged vows under the birch tree and kissed.

It was all peaceful until the scene around her changed. She was no longer standing in the meadow. Instead, she was in the middle of the burning village. She could hear the blood hurdling screams in the air and the faint smell of iron. There were people fleeing as some strange creatures kill them and some devouring them. She then walked further in the burning village. Strangely, the fire didn't burn her. She noticed a huge pile of dead bodies in the middle of the townsquare.

There stood beside the pile of bodies, a voluptuous woman with long white hair streaked with black that is tied up into a ponytail braid. She wore a long sleeved turtleneck black dress, its sleeves resembling a furisode, that has a diamond-shaped opening on the middle, exposing her chest and a portion of her breasts, its skirt that ends in the base of her foot. From black, the color turned into dark violet from her waist until the end and has a slit on the right side which showed her right leg. She also wore golden necklace that has ruby in the middle.

The little girl could feel enormous aura that tells her to stay away

In the hand of the woman was a dagger, its hilt decorated with metallic vines and roses, covered with blood of the victims.

The little girl's head began to hurt. It was like a someone is pounding her head hard so much that it could explode any minute.

Slowly the woman turned to her, only for the little girl's headache more worse. The woman's lips curled up into a wicked grin.

​​Shira sat up, now awake and began whipping her head around. She was still in her room but her headache suddenly disappeared.

"What the heck was that?" She asked herself.

Sighing in relief, she turned to see Reiji at her bedside. She shrieked seeing the tableware otaku inside her room standing there, watching her every move. He narrowed his eyes on her.

"You are late." He glanced on his pocket watch and the little girl tilted her head.

"For what?" She asked Reiji.

"Isn't obvious? Your classes." Shira stared at him for awhile and her eyes slowly widened. She took her clock to see it was already time for her class and it should have started 5 minutes ago.

"Dammit! I'm late!" Shira jumped from her bed and dashed to the closet. Reiji was no longer there so she can change with no problem. She undress her sleeping clothes and wore a gothic dress and black shoes that goes with it.

She then dash out of the room in hurry. After a few minutes, Shira arrived in the office to see Martha about to leave. When she saw her, the older woman merely took her clipboard and glanced at the girl.
