The one year curse

Percy had wished the Dream would just end and they would be pulled back into the real world, but that didn't seem to be happening. He sat next to Tiara on the ground and stroked her hair slightly, wondering if he could control manually on how to get inside and outside this Dream. He tried telling the System many things. 

"System take us back."

"System return!" 

"Is there a way for us to go back, system?" 

No replies were offered to him for any of the questions. Maybe the system wasn't a human soul after all, like Percy had suspected. But after hearing that Ichika was here in this world somewhere, his suspicion regarding this grew. He decided to put this thought to the back of his mind again. 

Tiara was down for now, but his mind and body didn't want to stop. His fingers tapped the side continuously restlessly. The fact that there were hundreds of dramons more inside those caves lit him up inside.
