Chapter 19: Stiffle

Jirou's POV

It has already been some time since I have arrived to the party that was thrown to celebrate those who made it into the cut and since this is a party, it wouldn't be fun without drinks. I do admit that I've already drank quite a lot but that doesn't make me fully drunk, I'm still tipsy. Even had the time to play cards with Ethan and Joseph. It was addicting that I even asked for another round which we have now played with rules.

"This time, whoever wins, will get a chance to adjure the loser," it was Ethan who set the rule before we start with another round of the game which soon have ended with me being the loser. Also the one who set the rule, Ethan, commanded me to get them food from the kitchen. Tch. Them and their lazy ass. I have no choice though, I need to obey since I lose in this round.

I stood up from my seat and saw all the people in the party, dancing randomly. My feet stopped on its track for I need to think of a way to the kitchen without bothering them in their dance. My steps resume after I saw a space where there are only few people which can be a way for me. I took that path and after reaching the kitchen, my hands got a plate and looked at the foods to see which of those I could place in the plate. Grabbing the kitchen tongs, I used it to get a food.

But I stopped when I suddenly felt a pang of pain inside my head to which results to the dizziness I had after. I've also already lose focus that made it hard for me to maintain my balance. I still had myself standing on my feet, with one hand holding on the table for support and the other hand had some of the foods on the plate poured out on the floor. My hand that was my support weakened that's why I fell on the floor which was just next to the foods. After minutes of trying to gain back my strength, I successfully get myself stand again.

Why did I feel dizzy though? Where did the pain came from?

I've wondered as I decided to get some fresh air outside. What happened might be the result of being suffocated in this place full of people. This might've been what Joseph felt way back on the first time we met. I did get a fresh air outside as I've planned to do. But not until I heard a fire alarm break out and people come running towards my way, looking desperate to come out of the place.

Remember all my friends, even when I have not fully gained the strength that I need backㅡ I run, going back inside, towards where my friends were earlier sitting altogether earlier but they weren't there earlier. I heard some arguments and my feet moves, following where I was hearing the voices. I stopped when I clearly see them, feeling my knees weakening that I don't think I can still move any more steps. They are now screamingㅡ turns out there were no fire at all but Shawn kept on saying things about his vision and how he did what he did on the fire alarm to save everyone.

I couldn't help stop their fight since I really feel weak now.. my body feels cold..

Their fight had ended, the place became quiet and now, I see Shawn was about to walk out when he saw me.

He then asked me which I heard clearly,

"Are you alright, Jirou?"

"Yes, I just feel dizzy."

I answered nonchalantly but honestly, the impact of my dizziness have gone worst now, my visions are becoming blurry. It was too blurry but the last thing I could see was Justin, Ethan and Shawn was about to move towards me.

That's when it all became black together with my body falling but I haven't felt the pain of my body bumping on the floor, all I have remembered was my body falling.
There was like a transition. How my visions have turned from black to dark blue, light blue until it became a clear color of the sky. The day seems bright and it feels like only good things will happen on this day.

"Jirou!" Someone called my name followed by a finger poking on my shoulder. I looked at the person and saw that it was Joseph with our training outfit. As I looked around, I realized that we were at the field.

"You're spacing out man, come on, we have to start training now."

Even without knowing what is happeningㅡ since I was just at the party earlier and now, I'm already here at the field back on the same routine as I can tellㅡ I still followed Joseph.

"Who runs faster will get a prize, better do well mates!"

Hanz told us, looking at each of us with a smile before getting into position.

After meeting his eyes and returning his smile, I wanted to see each members one by one. While doing a head count, I kept on repeating since I seem to forget to count someone but no. There's one person missing on our team.

"Someone's missing," I told Ethan who was just beside me, all he gave me was a confused look before turning into Hanz whom he was talking to earlier before I ask him.

While in my peripheral view, I saw something dark. No, scratch that, it was a person that comes with a dark aura. Out of curiosity, I straightly looked at it and met its eyes. The eyes that are too terrifying I just wanted to get myself out of that moment and I think, the force of inside me became the way for me to wake up.

I realized it was just a dream. My eyes were finally open after some time, all I see was white. I was about to think that I'm already in heaven, killed from two pair of terrifying eyes when my very own eyes met another two pair of eyes which belongs to Joseph.

"Ethan! Shawn! Jirou's finally up! Wake up!" Joseph exclaimed at the two who looks so tired.

"Ethan, hurry up and call the doctor." Shawn commanded and ethan nods, following what shawn told him to do.
"...why am I in the hospital?"

I mumbled, asking the two.
