Kuroko P.O.V

I slowly open my eyes and look around the dimly lit room. I slowly sit up on the soft mattress and look around at the familiar surroundings of my bedroom. What the fuck? How am I in my room? Last I remember I was in the woods, With Akashi holding me. Oh god he was holding me...Eww. I shake my head, Must have been something crazy I just imagined Yeah that's it. I slowly walk down the stairs and expect to meet anyone, Or a note to tell me where they've gone. Nothing. There's nothing. The house is full with an eerie silence. I Pick up the phone, Maybe I could call them. I place the phone to my ear and hear nothing but static, I look around and try to turn on the light. Nothing, It doesn't work, I flip the switch a couple more times but the bulb just wont light up.

I panic slightly and rush to the front door, Grabbing the handle and swinging it open. I close my eyes quickly and groan a little as blinding white light blinds me a ringing fills my ear and I slam the door shut. Leaning against it and breathing heavily I close my eyes and gulp softly.

"This is A dream. It has to be" I mumble. Covering my ears as the ringing gets louder I groan and scream in pain. I fall onto my knees. My vision going form blurry to clear My body getting covered with a cold. A cold that I cannot get rid of. I shiver a little and try to crawl away from the door. 

"All I have to do is wake up" I mumble and rest my head on the floor. I close my eyes and shiver softly. "Mirai?" I ask Maybe that bit was the dream. No, I already accepted that It was real. And I was to blame. My foolishness and stubbornness got me and everyone else I care about in trouble, It's all my fault. All my fault and now everyone's death will be on me, Like Ogiwara's. Maybe I should Just, give up Yeah, Ill give up. I breath out and relax my Cold body. 

Akahsi P.O.V 

I place his shivering body next to the fire as I look around at everyone else. Some looking at a sick Tetsuya and some observing the area. I see their worried faces staring down at him as I bite my lip a little. "Not again" I whisper. why is it always him? he's constantly getting this.

Rīdā Kneels down next to him, Worried Look in her eye as she bites her own lip. "The drink he got given. The one Akuma gave him. Was something made to break the connection between him and his brother. But it seems breaking the connection must be killing them both. Or making them weaker." She whispers. She sighs softly and looks around the woods

"Isn't there anything you can do. You have to help him" I say.

"He'll just keep getting weaker. There's nothing I can do" She whispers sadly I go to say something. He can't just be left, They can't give up on him when hes never given up! I open my mouth but get cut off by a hunter

"They're getting close" He says while drawing his bow "How did they find us?"

"Smell." Rīdā whispers "The smell of death"  

I jump and quickly scan the forest as I hear twigs snap all over, The yelling wouldn't have helped either, How could I be so stupid? I look down and the one man who ever dared to go against me. His shivering body, His lips slightly parted as he breaths softly. I was so lost in my head at the thought of losing him that I was completely oblivious of my surroundings. When I come back to reality I see we're surrounded by blood thirsty monsters.

I look around seeing how they condensed us into one large huddle as I immediately stand to protect tetsuya. I look at their smiling and snarling forms as they bare their teeth and laugh loudly as they Kill a few people who try to fight. I quickly look around seeing how we were surrounded I look over at Rīdā. Who looks back at me and slowly lifts her hands up in surrender,How weak. I frown and Open my mouth to say something but a hard hit to the back of my head makes me lose my footing and I collapse to the floor. I watch as they all get hurdled My vision slowly getting darker and darker before I close my eyes
