Awakening From The Dream

The Students Arrive inside and class begins at 8:15

A male teacher comes in, their homeroom teacher Sasaki.

He introduces that a new student was gonna enroll today.

The teacher turned his head towards the door. Everyone else followed.

"Come in, Ayumi."

`foot steps`

"Hello everyone, I'm Ayumi Hoshino."

Ayumi seemed to be a normal looking girl but Ninomiya smelled something wrong.

The teacher saw an empty desk at the side of Ninomiya and asked Ayumi to sit there.

Ayumi sat there and Ninomiya tried calling her out but she didn't respond. Ninomiya thought of her as this weird gloomy girl.

But Ninomiya kept staring at her like something isn't right.

Akise began to take notice.

After the lunch break started, Ninomiya and Akise went to the roof to eat lunch.

Akise keeps eating while Ninomiya is looking at the sky, he fell into another illusion.

Ninomiya kept looking, Akise begins to panic.

Akise goes in front of Ninomiya and shrugs him off.

"Hey! Wake up."

`Shake`

Ninomiya in his state says, "Why do we keep losing mom?"

"Wake UP!"

Ninomiya snaps back to reality,

"Was I gone for a second?"

Akise, "A second? You were gone for a whole 2 minutes my guy."

Ninomiya sits on the bench, "Why am I like this?"

Akise looks at him and offers him some food.

A far,

[Radio]

"Come in C1."

A guy in a building surveying Ninomiya tells,

"Subject went under another illusion. Recovery success."

The person behind the radio,

"Ok, over!"

A hooded figure appeared behind the guy with the putting a bullet to the head with a suppressed handgun.

"Commander, Position Confirmed."

,

Commander replied,

"Good, get a good shot of the chest slightly above the heart. Make sure you don't hit the head, Alice."

Alice,

"Affirmative."

…..

Time 4:07 pm

School ended at 4:05 pm

Akise and Ninomiya pack their bags,

"Where you headed to Ninomiya?"

"No where I guess, you?"

"I got some work at uncle's place."

"Good luck I guess."

Ninomiya leaves the building,

Akise looks through the window, he takes out his watch and presses the screen 3 times.

`Broadcasting`

Akise speaks on the watch.

"All units advise, Ninomiya has left the building. High alert."

.

.

[Somewhere]

`Lightning strikes`

`rain`

`Wind Breeze`

A blond woman speaks on her suits left hand,

"Alice, follow the Prototype."

..

She looks at the rain,

"It begins, doesn't it."

Someone in the room puts down the pen.

"What begins Commander?"

….

She smirks.

—----------------

Hiori wakes up, "Huh? Did I over slept?"

[Phone Ringing]

[Akise Calling]

"My phone is ringing? Hello, Akise."

Hiori pauses for a while.

She puts the phone down.

Time: 4:12 pm

Ninomiya, "Fuckin driver, why isn't he here yet?"

Ninomiya is on his phone texting the driver to get to the school soon.

At the side he sees Ayumi taking a soda out of the vending machine.

Ninomiya tried to start a conversation but she denied.

"Why am I getting denied?"

...…

`Scene Change`

Hiori with a dead look goes under the mansion basement.

`Back to School`

"Let me introduce myself cause you didn't let me talk.", said Ninomiya

"I know who you are idiot, everybody in this world does. The only son of Akito Hotaru, the richest successor. I'm looking for someone and you are the least of my issues. Please stop talking to me.", replied Ayumi.

Akise gets himself out from the back of school.

At the top of a tower, a sniper gets ready.

"All preparations complete Commander."

Eyes on the scope, the rifle powers up.

[Core Reactors Max Output]

[Energy Transfer Ready]

[Reactor Stable]

"Target Priority, Prototype #1, A.K.A.M.E."

`Tower bell rings`

Ayumi is talking to Ninomiya,

She sees a flash of light behind Ninomiya just in time to react and dodge it.

She tosses Ninomiya to the side.

"Eyes on the prize."

"Boom."

[Projectile Fire,]

`A gust of super heated plasma surrounds the barrel as a flash of light strikes the leg of Ayumi.`

The ground cracks open, and the energy from the bullet shakes the whole area like an earthquake.

The impact area melts away and all that remains is dust.

The people inside the building get killed on the spot.

"Woah, new weapon tech is amazing Commander.

Reclaiming would be so easy.", Alice is amazed.

She kisses the rifle.

"Hot", she comments.

,

"Easy there Alice, they aren't dead.", said Commander

,

"Wait she tanked a whole load?",replied Commander

Alice gets her rifle and prepares another shot.

[Cooling Required 20 Seconds]

[19]

[18]

Ninomiya gets up from the rubble.

He sees Ayumi and tells, "Hey, what's happening? Is this an illusion?"

Ayumi grabs his hand and gets in cover.

"We're under fire, a gen 7 sniper it seems."

"What's a gen 7 sniper?", Asks Ninomiya.

Ayumi is pissed.

"It's a fucking nuclear rifle. It shoots rounds powered by a reactor.", replied.

Ninomiya calls it a day,

"I'm imagining shit right now."

She punches Ninomiya and tells him, "This ain't an illusion, it's reality!"

Ninomiya begins to panic thinking he would die.

"I must survive, hey hey hey why am I even in this mess.", Asks Ninomiya.

"The hell should I know, go fuck yourself.", replied Ayumi.

[Charge complete]

"Commander visibility is zero in this smoke. I'm switching to instruments.", said Alice

[Switching To Instruments]

[Refined Thermal]

"Tch everything looks red except for one spot, that seems a bit cold than other. Here goes nothing."

[Bang]

The cover gets blown to bits, Ninomiya is very scared.

A faint voice asks him,

"Why are you scared? Can't you remember? These hands saved me one day. You scared you would lose me like your friend?"

Ayumi looks at Ninomiya, he seems different and he is quiet now.

Ninomiya grabs Ayumi on his back and begins running through the smoke.

With a evil smirk, Alice screams

"Where are you GOING!?"

[Charge Complete]

"I must survive, no matter what. No matter what I've been through."

"These dreams, these people are my illusions. Are they real?"

A Bright Flash Of Light is seen by Ayumi.

"Oh no….."

A bullet pierces Ninomiya's chest.

The force of the blast doesn't obliterate Ninomiya and Ayumi falls 27 meters apart from him.

`swirl`

"Secondary Target is dead.", Alice

Commander replied, "Hold mission, restock ammo and proceed with plan 2."

Ayumi looks at the now dead Ninomiya, shocked that someone tried to save her and died a horrible death.

She looks at his blood,

"Black…..

Why isn't it red?"

The blood begins reversing into his body.

"Passive Active", said Ninomiya

A shocked face.

"Huh", Akame thinks.

The wounded area turns golden yellow and it regenerates.

"That's not possible, what the hell.", Ayumi doesn't believe her eyes.

Ninomiya falls on the ground after the healing, Ayumi grabs him and takes him to the sewers.

A devastated landscape soon follows above, a

school in ruins.

Half the tower broke apart due to the recoil, Alice seemed unharmed using the Gen7 Rifle.

"A suit would've been fine. Now I have a bit of ache on my right shoulder."
