Leaving behind her typical regular life, Rebecca leaps in to untangle the conundrum of her new immortal friend, accompanied by her high school mates- all six forced into a team of purely coincidental situations, each identified by their own spirits.

For her, it's her best friend that made her accept herself or that provisional world.

But for April, once she knocks-there's no turning back. ⟡𖤐⟡✧⟡𖤐⟡✧⟡𖤐⟡✧ April had always been curious about the new boy named Gregory, who had moved into her neighborhood.

Her dreams became disturbed, filled with flickering shadows and haunting whispers that spoke his name. Unexplained disappearances and brutal attacks from a mysterious creature started happening. Victims were found torn apart-no trace of the attacker, only claw marks and eerie silence. And April happened to be stalked by something lurking through the shadows.
