Ajax lives a mundane life.
Then, one day, he meets North.
And, it seems they are starting to fall in love.
The problem is that only Ajax can see North.
A supernatural boy's love story.
Ajax ran as fast as he could to reach the flashing light, however, it seemed that it was moving farther and farther away from him. Ajax was all sweaty, tired and dehydrated. He fell on the ground and he began to cry.
It was the first time he cried due hopelessness which began to enveloped his entire being.
"Anyone, please help me!" He cried out loud. "Please!"
Suddenly, he heard the voice that he had heard earlier.
"Do not cry." The voice said that sounded it like it belong to a boy.
"Where are you?" Ajax replied.
"I am here."
"Where is here?" Ajax asked confusedly.
"Here."
The boy answered. Then, Ajax felt someone touched his shoulder.
"Can you feel my hand on your shoulder?" The boy asked.
"Yes."
"Will you trust me to lead you out of the darkness and into the light?" The boy asked Ajax.
"Yes." Ajax replied without hesitation.
"Please, give me your hand."
Ajax just lifted his right hand and felt the child's hand grabbed his hand. He, then, got up from the floor. When Ajax did, he felt the child tugged his hand and pulled him to follow.
"Who are you?" Ajax asked as they continued to walk.
However, the child remained silent.
"Where are we?" Ajax asked.
"We are in the Land of Hypnos."
"Hypnos? What is that?"
"Hypnos, you do not know the Land of Hypnos?" The child asked.
"No. Should I?"Ajax replied.
"You are funny. Everyone knows the Land of Hypnos." The child giggled. "You sure are a strange one."
"I really do not know what the Land of Hypnos is all about. Can you please tell me?"
"Okay." The child paused for a bit. "The Land of Hypnos is everywhere. It is here and there. It is a place where anything you want it to be.
"That's sound confusing."
The child laughed. "You are weird."
