"A Walk Down A̶m̶a̶h̶a̶r̶a̶ ̶R̶o̶a̶d̶ a Rollercoaster"

Chapter 29: "A Walk Down a(n emotional) Rollercoaster/memory lane..." (Not really inspired by the 15th episode of OHSHC but somehow was converted into the ending of the peanuts movie)

The friends make it safely back home well...

"Where is Akazari?!" Akiko asked, eyes all puffy and she seemed tired... frustrated? Besides that, Thomas wasn't even in the dorm. "Well, we left her," John said stoically. "And why?" Akiko asked. 

"Well, she wouldn't believe Eric and left on her own," Jonghyun said as Akiko turned to Alicia. "And is this your fault?" Nigel and Finn became a little worried for her as well, not realizing the dangers that might've happened already.

"Why, no. Blame her for leaving all on her own."

"All on her own? Are you crazy?!"

Just then there was a ring tone coming from someone's pocket. Everyone looks on their phones and it seems like it's coming from Akiko's. "Hello?"

"Kiki... Maggie... okay?"

"Yeah, just a little... scared?"

"Oh... Akazari... dark... the forest... phobia..."

"Yeah and?"

"...Run."

Akiko turns to Alicia, hanging up with Maggie. "What in the world happened. I thought both of you would never even fight, you two have got to be kidding me. Go and get her right now!"

The boys were shaken after hearing Akiko's angry voice. "And why should we?" 

"Because she's freaking claustrophobic. The air at night in Bluebell forest is so dense that you can't breathe, Akazari doesn't know that! Go save her!"

"She wouldn't listen to me!"

"She was your friend and still is! You know, Alicia, I thought you were the responsible one in the group. Listen to me carefully, if she gets to the part of the forest where the air is so dense that she couldn't even breathe, I don't know what I'll do." 

Tears rolled down Akiko's eyes. "Just go. Don't even imagine what it's like to lose a member of the friend group. Birds of a feather, flock together."

And with that, Alicia, John, Finn, and Nigel leave to save the poor Akazari. "You okay?" Jonghyun, who didn't seem to care, sits and asks Akiko.

"I hate crying." She mumbled to herself. "Why are you crying, though?" Jonghyun asks as Akiko looks up to Jonghyun. "Because I don't want to lose a friend, a sister, a duck. Seeing a friend die is the hardest thing, especially if they were a sister."

She turns to Jonghyun, tears flowing down her cheeks and snot down her nose... ew, I mean, it's realistic. "Don't you know it's hard to see a loved one leave you... twice?!" 

"What does that mean?"

The scene shows Alicia and the others running across The Bluebell campus as students look out their windows one-by-one, repeating the same connotation.

"Woah,"

"Amazing."

"Are those high-schoolers?"

"They're gonna get in trouble!"

"Where did they come from?" 

Akiko and Jonghyun continue their conversation. "I lost Akazari once. We were separated since we were 1, finally meeting each other when we were 6. I still remembered the separation but she didn't."

Alicia and the others get to the forest and run, running as fast as their little legs could go as Maggie and Eric smile to themselves, seeing their friends save the day. 

"It was sad, patiently watching her drift away. I didn't even know we had 2 fathers. I was alone and I never wanted anyone to feel alone again."

"Akazari?" Finn and John call out. They were out of breath, the area was foggy and everything was silent and still. "This could be a perfect area for a horror film, doesn't it?" Nigel asks the group as Alicia sways to turn to him. "We're here to save a friend, not some kind of monster!"

"Guys?" They hear a voice behind them. "Ari!" Finn and Nigel hug her as she hugs back. "I was so scared, I couldn't breathe." She hugs them tightly, whispering those words to their ears.

Alicia frowns, looking down as Akazari smiles. "I forgive you. But, honestly, it was my fault for not listening." Nigel and Finn stop hugging and Alicia takes their place. "It's not, don't worry, Kazi. I won't leave you alone."

...

"Did you get 'er?" Jonghyun was sitting on the couch as she watches the people walk in one-by-one. "Yup, we surely did." Alicia smiles at her as Jonghyun smiles back. "Great." 

"Where's Kiko? I bet she was worried sick." 

"She's fine, you want to talk to her? The door's open." Jonghyun cocks her head to the door as Akazari slowly walks in. She sees the little blanket she covered herself with, sitting as she looks at her phone. 

Akiko looks up and a bigger smile, not a fake one, creeps in. "Akazari!" Akazari hugs back. "I was so worried, did you die?"

"Yeah, your hugging a ghost." 

"Well, at least you're not dead in the inside."

"Why? Are you?"

"May~be."

The two hug each other tightly as Akiko finally escapes the room. She sighs in relief and everyone sat in a circle, watching a little movie to calm down their nerves.

"Say, is the Amahara garden real, Akiko?" Akazari asks Akiko as she smiles. "No." Everyone perks up. "What?!" 

"What? Thomas told me not to, didn't he?"

Flashback to the beginning of A Walk Down Amahara Road 2:

"You think we should tell 'em?" The boy thinks after the girls' question. "Nah." He says bluntly as we move over to the kids who trying to find The Amahara Garden.

"BS!"
