Strange

After entering the room she had paid for, Nessa set her bag down, then locked the door and used the last set of food they had left to feed Akio, then she ate and went to freshen up while Akio yawned and fell asleep due to being tired. 

After finishing her bath, Nessa dressed and exited the bathroom, where she noticed Akio sleeping. She patted him and went to the window, where she had a beautiful view of the strange city and the rain falling. 

"I wonder why those people were acting like that earlier," she sighed as a bolt of lightning struck the side of her window, causing her to jump back and then sighed. 

'What in the world is this?' She pondered as she shut the window, adjusted the curtains, and climbed into her bed, where she promptly fell asleep since she was tired as well. 

That night, Nessa had a series of disturbing dreams that she couldn't make sense of and made her feel very uneasy.
