It was quiet.

Void.

You couldn't see, hear nor feel anything. Time has stopped in this place and you...

You... can't feel or do anything but despair. How long have you been here? Days? Months? Years? You don't know. Your senses were numb. You were stuck.

This place is the most terrifying yet most relieving experience you've gotten for a very long time. You were relieved because you didn't feel pressured anymore, no more hiding, no more secrets and no more shattered hopes. You've been seeing themsince high school. Demons. You never told anyone because you knew they wouldn't believe you, they would just brush you off or shun you or worse, kill you. They didn't bother you and you didn't bother them... Or so you thought.

Something was out there, in the darkness it lays and it's sucking everything out of you. Life and sanity.

You were dying and you have no one. Your parents never really cared about anything but getting you out and you never really have any friends because of the fact that you stare at the little critters several with fascination so no one really disturbed you and you also usually spend your time in quiet areas like a library or your room. You did know a few people from True Cross but you never really hung out much except for break time and during classes but you were pretty sure that they were like the others. They would just do nothing if you were gone.

But... But there was this tinie-tiny spot in your heart they were different, that they actually and truly cared and worry about you. That they would bring you out of this hellhole you've been calling life. You wanted to restart, live normal again without having to worry about making just one wrong move and everything will be gone...

You want to be free...

But alas, luck was never really at your side and you were undeniably stuck, dying with no one and you've already come to terms that giving up now will leave you free sooner.

Two weeks.

You have been gone for two weeks and Yukio was worried. Everyone was worried. He considered you a close friend due to the fact that you took things seriously when needed but has always a way to make people laugh. And besides, you were the only normalperson that the exwires tend to hang out with more, even Shiemi was glad she met you but everyone agreed to not tell you about what they do since they know it could leave you in danger so they kept it a secret. They tried their best to hang out when they weren't busy doing exorcist stuff and they never really had any trouble since you never really asked much about them, you would usually just bring up the enthusiastic smile of yours and ask random questions like "what's your favorite topping on a pizza?" out of blue. You always appeared to be happy but out of habit of being an observer, Yukio noticed itand only after a few months of being with you, he found out something that you've been hiding carefully and profoundly. Yukio never really thought about it but the way you handled the burden without any help made him think about how things aren't always as they seem.

You were different.

You weren't like the other girls that just fawned over him and you were certainly not like the exwire girls that had strong and determined demeanor. He could compare you to Shiemi or even Noriko but you really weren't that mellow and you seem to have broad knowledge of really specific things. Sometimes on weekends, he would sometimes find you in the library reading about 3-4 books with you with a certain topic with every time he sees you there so Yukio has made it a habit to check on you every once in a while when he's not doing anything. The last time he saw you was in the library too, you were reading about myths and mirrors. He never really understood why you read such topical books but he just guessed that you were just curious about it and he thought that it was fine since it was nice to see someone be eager to learn
