[Your POV]
As everyone had gotten ready, your wandering began. Anna had finally woken up and, while she was sleepy, she could walk on her own. Chara however, was too tired to move, leaving him to be carried by Leo.
You would glance over at him from time to time. "Is something the matter, Echo?" Denise asked, catching your attention."I'm just trying to figure out why Chara is so exhausted" you replied, looking at her. "Do you have any ideas?" "A few, yes""Well, let's hear them""His stamina is terrible and he didn't recover well enough. He's been afflicted by a kind of disease, or perhaps just a cold. Or he's been poisoned" you suggested."Maybe he just didn't get enough sleep?" Anna suggested."Impossible, I warmed him up to a pleasant temperature" you answered."....warmed him up?" Denise asked, raising a brow."He seemed cold, so I snuggled up with him to share my heat" you replied."....ooooh.... Now we know why he's tired" Denise said, chuckling along with Anna."You do? Well then, is it dangerous?" you asked."Nono. It's very kind of you to help Chara, but I think you did it in the wrong way" Denise said."How do you mean?" "You might not feel it yourself, Echo. But during puberty, a lot happens with the body" Denise started."I know very well what happens in puberty, what does this have to do with anything?" you asked."Feelings change too, you know!" Anna put in."Yeah, that's natural with the number of hormones running through one's body," you said."And people start thinking about the other gender-" Denise started."And the same!" Karen shouted from the front."Let me rephrase. It's at this age that many start thinking about going to bed with someone else" Denise said, scratching her neck."...?""She's talking about sex" Leo sighed."Don't say it out loud! Anna is here!" Denise said in an attempt to cover her ears."What's so wrong wit-" you started."HUSH!" She kept covering Anna's ears."She's just using Anna as an excuse. Denise doesn't like that word, for some reason" Leo explained."Huh... but haven't you-""SHUT UP!""..... alright then"Denise cleared her throat."Anyways, that might be it. How old did you say Chara was?" she asked."He should be around 15" you answered."There we go. We have our answer!" Anna cheered."So, I shouldn't do that?" you asked."Yeah... not unless you get a stronger bond" "I understa-" Your world became blank.You were floating in the sea of nothing, three doors revealing themselves.They looked exactly alike, waiting to be opened.For anyone else, this would be weird. But this has happened ever since you were small. Slowly, you levitated towards the door in the middle, slowly turning the handle. It was a building, a large one at that. Windows were broken and blood was spread. A shadow patrolled on this new battlefield and a word shot through your mind. Enemy.Then, you were back. Face against the gravel and with Denise in a panic. "Someone turn her!" she screamed. "I can turn myself" you mumbled, pushing yourself up from the ground. A pair of hands grasped your shoulders, pulling you up from the ground."Why does this keep happening?? And it's so random too!" Denise spouted."I've told you before, it's nothing to worry about" you answered. She spun you around, grasping your shoulders again as she stared you down."Nothing to worry about??" she almost screamed. A hand placed itself on her shoulder."Denisella" Anthony's voice was heard from behind her. She turned around slowly. "I know Echo is complicated and rarely tells us anything, but screaming at her won't help in any way" he continued. Her eyes softened a bit."You're right... I'm sorry, Echo. I just get worried about you, alright?" she said, turning back to you."It's alright, Denise. I know you meant no harm" you answered. She gave you a smile."Let's get going""I'm afraid that won't be happening," you said. She gave you a confused look."Why not? It's okay if you don't trust them, but our groups are in an alliance!" she said."It doesn't matter. Our enemy is already there" you said."What makes you say that?""I just know it. Have I ever been wrong when it comes to danger such as this?" you asked."No...but...""Let's just be on the safe side, alright?" you said. She sighed. "Fine, we'll do it your way. But where should we go?" she asked."What if this is all a plan? They've cut us off from two different camps, which means we'll have to stay somewhere without security tonight!" Anna said. She seemed nervous about it."As long as we band together, we might be able to fend them off!" "I suppose that's all we have for now... otherwise... I'll give myself up..."

[Chara's POV]
As I woke up, I was in a completely different place. I was laying on a pair of jackets by a campfire. The sky was dark and the people around barely awake. I frowned and got to my feet. All I did here was cause trouble... Echo would have it so much easier if I wasn't here...
Silently, I snuck out of this new camp and into the darkened woods. Suddenly, I felt a hand around my wrist.
"Where are you going, Chara?" I turned around to come face to face with Echo.
"Leave me alone... I'm leaving..." I said.
"Don't spout such nonsense, this is a dangerous-"
"Will you stop treating me like this!? I know I might not be the smartest around here, but that doesn't give you a right to step all over me!"
"Chara, please be qu-"
"SHUT UP! I'm done with you all! You can all die for all I care!" I spun around, getting my hand back as I began to walk.
"Chara, wai-agh!" I turned around at this weird change in her tone. She simply stood there, eyes wide. Something was sticking out of her chest for a moment before being pulled out. Her eyes went blank and she collapsed.
"ECHO!" I rushed forward, catching her before she touched the ground. She didn't say anything or move.
"You idiot! You killed the target! Boss is gonna kill us!"
I carefully wiped away some hair from her face, placing a finger at her neck. She wasn't breathing. She didn't have a pulse. She... was dead...
"N-no... t-this is all a joke, right? N-no way you'd die like this!"
"..."
"I-I take it back!"
"..."
"I promise I'll listen and do what you tell me!"
"..."
"E-Echo I..."
"...""
I-I love you okay?! Don't leave me like this!"
"..." I buried my face in her neck, trying to muffle my pathetic sobs. It wasn't meant to be like this. Why? Just...why? This... isn't fair to me
