Dancing Promises

[[Sequel to Mōhitotsu no jikan ni]] It has been three years since that fateful year in Class 3-3. The remaining eight students of Mr. Sakakibara's class have been asked to help mentor the newest Class 3-3 students. Yet, something's wrong. Silver can't help but be distracted by this one kid with golden eyes... Rated M for character deaths and swearing.

1. The Start

The curse of Class 3-3 had come and gone for Mr. Sakakibara's students. Yet, here they were again. The surviving eight students were asked to come to Yomiyama Middle School and help out with the new Class 3-3. Silver had almost refused but then he remembered what had happened when he was a student. It had been so only a few years ago, yet Silver remembered it perfectly.
He hated what happened. But he had vowed that he's prevent it from happening to anyone else. He wanted to protect these kids. Silver, like most of his fellow classmates, had stopped going to school after Grade 12. No one wanted to continue, it was stressful for them. And now Silver was back in the place he hated the most. Yomiyama Middle School...

Silver said a few greetings to his old classmates before making his way to his seat. He really didn't want to be here but yet, here he was again. He glanced over and saw Red fidgeting. He wasn't that much better than the others. Yellow was chewing on her hair, Platinum was staring at the ground, Ruby was staring off into space, Black was looking over his shoulder every two minutes, Whi was chewing on her nails. Diamond was the only one besides Silver who wasn't doing anything obvious.

As the opening speaker began to talk Silver stared out into the crowd. One of these kids was mostly likely already dead, someone who had come back to life to start a curse. And here he was, vowing to help figure out who was dead and return them to death. It was kind of sad actually. Silver closed his eyes as he heard the cheering begin.

Red glanced over at Silver. Silver nodded his head before turning away. "As... As the person who volunteered to be the non-existent one when I was in Class 3-3. It is very important that no one should talk to the non-existent one. Don't even acknowledge their presence. That is the best way to stay safe. It's not to be cruel. It's something that has to be done." Red told the crowd. There was more cheers and Silver squeezed his eyes shut. His head was pounding now. "Hey...! It's your turn to speak." Red hissed as he walked past.
"Um... I'm not too sure what I'm supposed to say but... Not talking to the non-existent one is very important. If not it'll mess up the protection and people will start dying, but sometimes even following these rules will not keep you safe. It is then when you must find the 'Casualty' and return them to death."
