Amano Yukiteru's father sat at the kitchen table reading the newspaper as his mom was cooking something in the stove. His father noticed him standing with an awkward expression and said, "What happened? Sit down Yuki; aren't we going to make our plans to see the stars?"

Yuki's mother added, "I'm preparing your favorite meal today Yuki, hamburger!"

Realization struck into his mind, 'Mother?! Father?! But I was with Yuno at the school right now … andthen that strange sphere swallowed me…' He couldn't understand what was happening; he got out of the table and decided to head upstairs.

He arrived at his bedroom, turned the lights on and got even more shocked, 'The jacket that I always wanted, a new dart board and darts… even my favorite bird, the Sri Lankan Hill Mynah… what is all this doing here anyway?'

A voice called out from nowhere, "Because these are the things that you always wanted, you are inside my sphere now…"

The ceiling split up in two and was opening slowly; Yuno was standing at one of the sides using a black cloak.

"My 'Illusionary Space', I created it using Deus' core. Inside of it, you can have anything that you ever wanted; it's a 'Dreamland'."

Yuki tried to scream Yuno's name but he couldn't, he tried but her name have strangely disappeared from his mind, 'Why I can't speak her name?' he thought.

She had a blank expression in her face as she continued, "I had lost Yuki… I can't kill you."

"What have you done?" Yuki asked.

"Oh that's nothing big, I just created a world where my being and name never existed… you'll get used to it."

Yuki tried again to say her name but it was in vain. Why he couldn't remember the name of the one that he loved he didn't knew, but he never felt so much despair in his whole life. He felt as if a piece of him was missing.

"Yuki… I am afraid that this is a goodbye…" the ceiling began to close, the two pieces of it began moving towards each other as Yuno continued, "I was with the wrong idea all the time; I thought that I could live normally in the third world after I killed the 'you' from the second world but it isn't true! My mind was so confused… so I didn't know what to do with you… what we had done was only a 'love simulation' and…"

"No! I was being serious about it, I love you ****!" Yuki interrupted, he couldn't say her name again.

"No… we were using each other all the time…"

"No, you're wrong! You saved me from the 'ninth' at the school remember?"

"You were just using me to survive and I was glad to be used."

"But you had saved me that time in the Omekata's Temple!" he replied.

"Yes that was dangerous…"

"You had even tried to explode yourself to save me!"

"I had the false idea of dying for someone…"

Yuki struggled to scream her name but his efforts were in unfruitful.

"I would be fine with any one while I can depend on him emotionally. And you would be fine as long as he or she protects you…"

Yuki couldn't believe in Yuno's words, at this moment his bedroom shifted into his classroom and Wakaba appeared by his side, "Amano… I love you…" she said.

He understood that it was only Yuno's creation, even though he always felt attracted to Wakaba he knew who he love and he wasn't going to give up.

"Stop! Stop! Wakaba is not the one that I want! I love **** and only ****!"

He tried once again to say Yuno's name but it wasn't anywhere to be found in his mind.

"Goodbye Yuki…" the ceiling closed at this moment and everything went dark for a brief second until Yuki found himself again inside his bedroom.

"NOOOOOOOOOOOO!" He screamed with all his might until he ran out of oxygen, "Why did I have to in love with her?" he had a sorrowful expression in his face, tears began to pour from his eyes making their way down his cheeks.

In a blink of an eye, Yuki found himself once again in the kitchen sitting across his father, his mother still in the stove.

He was staring into nothing with tears in his eyes; his mother noticed his expression and stopped what she was doing, she turned off the fire, came closer to her son and asked, "Yuki, love, why are you crying?"

"M-M-Mom…" he said between sobs, "I had dreamed that I fell in love with a strange girl."

Yuki's mother came closer and said, "Oh that's weird, I thought that you would fall in love with a normal girl… why have you fallen in love with this "strange" girl?"

"Because she was always by my side! But I can't remember her name!" He said with a grievous expression.

His mom hugged him and caressed his hair softly comforting him, "Don't worry son, you'll remember it soon enough."

"I hope mom… I hope."

By this time his mother had already packed all that they would need to stargaze, his father folded the newspaper and put it at the table. He got up and hugged his son, "Yeah son, don't worry about it."

The trio was almost arriving at their preferred spot for stargazing; Yuki couldn't stand his thoughts anymore. He needed to remember that name. He stopped and looked tenderly to his parents.

A series of thoughts were running through his head, he tried to sort out but it was useless, his parents noticed that he had stopped walking and turned to face their son, "Yuki my dear, is there something wrong?" his mother asked.

He finally understood what he had to do, his expression changed to a determinate look as he said, "Father… mother… I need to remember this name… I need to remember why I love this girl so said.

"Son…" his father said putting a hand in his shoulder, "Do what you have to do…"

"But what if I never come back?"

"Don't trouble yourself son…" now his mother said, "Anywhere you go… we'll be always with you."

Yuki had tears in his eyes as he began to think about the subject that has been grieving him.

"Don't worry about us… as your mother said… we'll always be with you."

Yuki concentrated in his thoughts, he tried to sort the feeling that were somewhat repressed inside his head. Suddenly a flow of memories started to run through his head. The memories of the pink haired girl appeared several times in his train of thought.

"Yu**… Yun*… I must remember. WHY I CAN'T REMEMBER?!"

The images of Yuno flowed back into his mind; he remembered every single moment, the good and the dangerous ones. All the times that she saved him, all the times that he needed her and she was there to help him.

Even though he knew in the deepest part of his heart that he wasn't completely happy with her, he knew that he was the only one that could help her. His head began to ache heavily when something seemed to snap back into place like a cogwheel that began to work again, "YUNOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!"

The sky parted in two like a double door, Muru-Muru came into his view using a black cloak similar to the one that Yuno was wearing and said with a mockingly tone, "Not so fast Yuki! You have remembered her but this doesn't mean that you can get out of here"

"What is happening?" Yuki asked dumbfounded.

"Don't worry Yuki it'll be really fast, I promise"

"What do you mean?"

"You see, I don't want Yuno to be traveling around endless dimensions always seeking for you, it'll be useless, she is too crazy to do something right… she will keep destroying infinite dimensions without an ending and this bothers me! So I'll just put my creation to work without her acknowledge and let's see how much fun I can get from it…" she said with an evil smirk.

Yuki couldn't understand Muru-Muru's arguing and before he could say anything she shouted, "Farewell Yuki! Hope you enjoy your staying at MY creation!"

Darkness started to engulf reality; soon Yuki was swallowed by the shapeless void.

"What is this?" His last words rang in the air without reaching anyone. He felt as if floating into space until his mind finally drifted to the unconsciousness.

A.N.: This fanfic will have 5 volumes, each one focusing each year that Yuki spends in the "Nightmare World". As the story progresses, new characters should be added to the story so stay tuned for updates :D
