My POV:

It was just another ordinary day in the restaurant: being a waitress, washing dishes, and making food. It had been about a year since Oniichan and I had been sucked into the Final Fantasy XII game. I'm 15 now and had grown to 5'3." I know! Only an inch! Kai-nii is 18, Fumiko-nee is 17, and Takashi-nii is 19. My siblings and I had kept the secret about the game from my mother for a while now. We still hadn't told her, and we didn't plan to. However, something happened today that just made things a bit more difficult.

"Oi! Hikari! Snap out of it! Come on, we have to clean up all the tables or Okaasan's going to go all pissy on us!" Kai-niichan exclaimed as he bonked me on my tied up hair. I grumbled as I adjusted my glasses and started wiping down the table in front of me. After cleaning up all the tables, Kai-nii and I went upstairs and met up with Okaasan, Takashi-nii, and Fumiko-nee.

"Ok guys! I'll be back! I just need to buy some groceries!" Okaasan exclaimed.

"Hai!" we all shouted as Okaasan kissed me on the forehead and left downstairs. Fumiko-neechan ran out of her room with our "Zombieland" DVD. Takashi-niichan came up to Kai-nii and me.

"Finished cleaning up the tables?" he asked.

"Yes sir!" Kai-nii and I shouted, doing our mock salutes.

Takashi-nee chuckled and patted me on the head, "You guys go on and shower. Fumiko and I already did."

"Hurry up ne? We gotta watch a movie!" Fumiko-nee shouted from the living room.

"Hai hai!" Kai-nii and I shouted in unison as we ran in our separate rooms to shower. I picked out grey sweatpants, undergarments, and my simple black shirt that has a cute, animated bunny on it, then went in my bathroom to shower. After showering, I dressed up and tied up my hair into a high ponytail. After I hung my towel to dry, I put on my Pikachu slippers and headed out of my room and into the living room. I plopped onto the couch in the middle of Fumiko-nee and Kai-nii as Takashi-niichan put on the DVD.

"I'll get the popcorn! Wait up!" Fumiko-nee exclaimed as she jumped off the couch and hurried into the kitchen to get the popcorn. All of a sudden, the lights in the kitchen went off. Fumiko-nee shrieked and ran back to us with no popcorn.

"What happened? A black out?" Takashi-nii asked curiously as he got out his phone and opened it for light.

"Hurry up and find the flashlights and candles!" I exclaimed, hiding myself behind Kai-niichan, who had paused the movie.

"This is weird." Fumiko-nee whispered. All of a sudden, we heard a thump. It came from the direction of my bedroom. I shrieked, but Kai-nii covered my mouth and I only made muffled sounds. Takashi-niichan got out a handgun from our secret hiding place under the couch and quietly walked to my room. Fumiko-nee, Kai-nii, and I followed behind him. He counted down from 3, and when he got to 1, he kicked open the door and aimed the gun directly at a perso-….people…..4...people…All of a sudden, the lights turned on and I widened my eyes at the sight in front of me. In front of us, in my room, on the ground…..were the people that went by the names of Vaan, Penelo, Sem, and Larsa.

"It can't be….." Kai-nii and I whispered.

Takashi-nii lowered the gun, while Fumiko-nee blurted out, "WHAT THE FUCK!"
