I felt the rough dirt rub against my face. No, it wasn't dirt... sand. I felt the sun's rays all pointing at me. I was on a beach... but where? I opened my eyes and saw the sea.

I sat up and found myself on a deserted island in the middle of nowhere. I saw purple leaves on trees and grass ahead of me. I stood up and rubbed my head. Without thinking, I headed straight to the forest.

It was dark, damp and cold. I carefully stepped over mushrooms annd rotting wood. My ear was ringing. I didn't know what it was or why it was ringing. For some reason, it really hurt. My school uniforn was full of stains and I felt pain in my cheek.

I looked up at the sky and figured that it was noon. I felt my stomach rumble and I decided to look for food.

I had not realized it but I had a backpack with some supplies and a watch. I looked at my watch but there was no time. My watch's hands turned like crazy, never pointing at a specific time. I got my backpack and opend it. There were 2 sandwiches. I opened one only and placed the other in my bag.

I sat down on a rock, eating my sandwich. I stared at the new environment I was in. I felt like something that wasn't human was controlling the forest. I saw something fly in to a tree and then fall on the ground. I stood up and looked at it. It was a dove.

I stood up and started walking again, hoping that I would be able to find something. I heard the leaves rustling near me. There was no wind so I wondered what could be here? Could it be that someone else was here? I shivered in fear.

A few hours later, it was starting to get dark. I remembered that there were matches in my bag so I got them. I found some sticks and made a bonfire. I lit it up and tried to stay warm. My eyes closed and I fell asleep.

When I woke up, the fire was exthinguished. I rubbed my eyes and drank from the water bottle I kept in my bag. I splashed some water on my face. I continued walking in the very hot sun.

The rustling of the leaves always grew loud and accompained with some shouting. I had been walking for some time when it grew particularly loud. I heard it right behind me. So I ran.

I ran. Past the logs and the poisonous mushrooms. My ears continued to ring as I ran as fast I could. It distracted me but I was still able to run. I saw an opening from the forest and I made a run for it. i ignored all the sounds that entered my ear.

The opening led to a beach with an abandoned train track. I accidentally tripped on a rock and fell right on the tacks. I heard a horn from an oncoming train. Wait a train? I struggled to get up but something pushd my to the other side of the tracks. The train passed within seconds, crushing me if I wasn't pushed by whatever it was.

I stood up and I turned around. The train's carts passed and the train was gone. I saw something on the other side, panting. It was a tall figure of someone wearing a school uniform like I did. I realized it was Soobin. I collapsed.

I heard his foosteps go closer to me. I felt his fingers lace into mine. I felt his heavy breathing an inch away.
"Yeonjun hyung," he panted. I opened my eyes again.
"S-Soobin," I struggled to speak, unsure if I was seeing a ghost.
"How did you get into the Magic Island?" he asked, hugging me tighly.
"I don't know..." my voice trailed off.
