/Dark Hour\
---------------  

[(Y/n) is in her room waiting for the hidden hour to pass.  She decides that the best method of keeping track of the progress that the game has made; writing the events down in a composition notebook.]

"Good evening my dearest (Y/n). Its great to see you again." 

>Pharos has appeared before you, perched in the middle of your bed.

"Pharos! I was wondering when I'd get to see you again! You always give the best advice! What should I do now that I am here?"

[She moves to envelope him in a hug, startling him.]

>Pharos chuckles in delight and wraps his thin arms around the girl slowly.

"That's what I came to tell you! Tomorrow is the day that Fuuka will be locked in the gym and become trapped in the tower. I've been watching you closely and I've seen that not only have you been trying to help Fuuka with the bullying as much as you could without getting directly involved with her, but you've also been avoiding the group that you are supposed to be helping. What are you doing?"

> He slowly leaves the embrace, looking up at the young woman with glowing eyes.

"Well...I don't know how my being here will effect the course of events...and I don't know how to introduce myself. I can't just walk up to them and say:"Hello there, the name's (Y/n), I'm not from here and this is one big video game. I'm here to help prevent the end of the world"...?

>Pharos is silent for a moment and then double over in full body laughter.

[(Y/n) folds her arms over her chest crossly.]

" I asked for you to help me, not to laugh at me! What am I supposed to do...!?"

"Heehee, It was always a delight to see your reactions ...I think that the best thing to do is follow Fuuka into Tartarus and let things flow from there."

"Ah! You're so smart! Thank you so much! "

> Pharos disappears and reappears at the foot  of the bed.

"The Dark Hour will end soon. I will come see you again soon... my dearest."

>Pharos disappears.

'He always leaves so abruptly...'

[The Dark Hour ends and (Y/n) finishes writing down the progress before turning in for the night.]

/Early Morning\
---------------

[(Y/n) arrives at the school gate. A pair of students are talking.]

> You overhear a conversation.

Listening Student: I heard from a younger guy in my club yesterday that the
10th-graders are teasing someone.

Gossiping Student: What, like bullying him? Poor kid... What's his name?

Listening Student: I don't know... All I heard is that it's really a problem.
I thought our school was peaceful, too, but I guess it's not so much.

' I've a long day ahead of me. I hopefully packed enough supplies  to survive ten hours in Tartarus.' 

> The first bell has rung.
