"You finally come to accept the fact that what happened yesterday wasn't a dream?" I asked Ryuji as we stood outside the school gate.
"To be honest, the only reason I denied it is because I found it..no...I still find hard to believe." Ryuji said.
"World's changing dont you think?"
"Damn right it is and it's only getting worse."
"Don't be like that Uji, I believe there's more good then evil."
"If you say so. So where's Ren?"
"Still inside. I told him to meet us here after school. What did you need to talk to us about?"
"I'll let you know when he gets here."
"What are you up to? Should I be worried?"
"I wouldn't think so."
"That's comforting. Anyway speak of the devil." I said as I saw Ren walk towards us.
"Yo." Ryuji said to Ren.
"What's up?" Ren asked.
"I want to talk to you guys about that castle yesterday."
"What about it?" I asked getting the feeling I'm not gonna like this.
"I can't keep acting like what happened yesterday happened. Plus it's all connected to that bastard Kamoshida. I wanna go back to that place."
"Your wanting to go back to where the three of us were almost killed? Now I know you've lost your mind." I said looking at him with disbelief.
"Come on Laurel I wanna find out more about that place and you two are the only ones I can rely on for this. So what do you two say? You in?"
"Sure. What's next?" Ren said.
"Even you Ren? Why? I don't mean to offend or be rude but how does this concern you? This is your second day and you barely know anything about this school, Kamoshida, Ryuji, and me. Why get involved?"
"Because after what I went through yesterday, I can't ignore that. Also yeah your right, I barely know you two and yet I saved you both. I told you yesterday I got your back and his. Hope you keep up your end of the deal. Now my question is are you gonna let him handle this by himself?"
He got me there. I hate being put down like that. I'm usually the one that does that
"Damn you...alright fine. You win."
He smirked at me and Ryuji patted my shoulder giving me his typical big ass grin.
"That didn't take long to convince you two. Now come on let's retrace our steps from yesterday. I bet we'll find the castle by doing that."
"Lead the way." I said.
The three of us walked around for almost an hour, going back to the first place the three of us met, going back the same alley making the same turn and our school still remained the same.
"We must've made a wrong turn somewhere. Let's try again." Ryuji said."
"Again..?" Ren said looking tired.
"Yeah I'd like to go home now. I do have work you know." I said
"Both of you said you'll stick with me so come on. I won't mess up this time." Ryuji said walking in the same direction again. Like last time, we ended up in front of the same school gate.
"I don't get it. You have any idea Laurel?" Ryuji asked me he leaned against the concrete wall.
"Honestly, I'm not so sure anymore." I said
