• Ch. 4




    Crowded streets are cleared away
    One by One
    Hollow heroes separate
    As they run

    Rena failed her science test. Ms. Tama wanted to speak with her parents.

    "...But I...Don't have any parents..." she whispered, tears filling her eyes.

    Ms. Tama didn't believe her.

    Rena lashed out at her.

    "WHY THE ******** DO YOU THINK I'M ALWAYS LATE FOR SCHOOL?! I HAVE NO PARENTS TO DRIVE ME HERE GODDAMMIT!"

    Rena felt her face get hot as she realised what she had just said.

    She did the only thing she could.

    She ran.

    You're so cold
    Keep your hand in mine
    Wise men wonder while
    Strong men die

    Rena tripped on the street and skinned her knee. There was so much blood... She started to feel sick. She hated blood.

    She layed on the ground for a long time before she realised the two men who were chasing her the other day had grabbed her and tied her up.

    Show me how it ends it's alright
    Show me how defenseless you really are
    satisfied and empty inside
    Well, that's alright, let's give this another try

    Rena woke up in what looked like a jail cell, but instead of bars, there was a glass wall.

    People wearing odd suits were walking around outside.

    'They look like friggin scientists...'

    Rena's eyes turned dark maroon.

    "Dear God..."

    They had no souls.

    If you find your family, don't you cry
    In this land of make-believe, dead and dry

    A man that looked like Kyle walked up to her cell...

    ...The man WAS Kyle!

    "...KYLE?! WHERE THE HELL AM I?!" Rena yelled, struggling to break free from her hand cuffs.

    You're so cold, but you feel alive
    Lay your hand on me one last time

    Kyle smirked and walked away.

    "...K-....Kyle!" Rena screamed, tears once again filling her eyes.

    Show me how it ends it's alright
    Show me how defenseless you really are
    satisfied and empty inside
    Well, that's alright, let's give this another try


    This couldn't be happening to her...
