A/N: Heya guys! According to Variable Zero's review, I'd probably need to explain how I am referring to the protagonist's identity. He was given 5 choices of who to be since he lost all his memories at first and his name (CRUCIAL SPOILER IF YOU CATCH UP FAST) but couldn't decide on whom to be. He was then split into five, and send to another world while he sinks deeper. Yeah, I have a lot of places to work on to give people a greater reading experience ;-; Please enjoy the new chapter!

?

_ was sinking again into the endless darkness. _ figured that, in the memory banks that exists within _ contained memories and details of the personas that _ will eventually get split into. Since _ have time, _ figured that knowing more about them won't hurt. It's also to pass time anyways.

Araki Tachibana
The hero of the setting sun; a bubbly and happy person. He was a kind and considerate person that most people would like, and is a kindred spirit that would offer help without exchange. He had a quite strange standpoint in life and likes to be innocent in most aspects, making him the most sensitive to despair and people's leavings—which caused him to experience his very own downfall in life.

Makoto Yukihira
The hero of the cloudy skies; a selfless person which stays away from others. He was betrayed by a friend once and lost all trust in social connections, and preferred to be alone most of the time. Despite his excellent achievements in life, he can willingly abandon them for his pure desire to get someone in his life to understand him. He died of loneliness and lost his self to solitude.

Satomi Aikawa
The hero of the rising sun; a person who is just and fair to people. He was a man of chivalry and was a very generous man, leading all those around him. He is also a positive hot-head, seeking for things that he wishes to complete all the while being fair and kind to people and earning acknowledgements. He passed a peaceful death, and smiled while leaving his kindness down as a legacy.

Mihara Tateyama
The hero of the blazing sun; a person that is the kindest around the kind and the friendliest amongst people. He made a lot of friends due to his understanding attitude and was willing to solve everyone's problems—leaving no one to bother him and ignore what he truly feels at times. He died quickly due to depression, only people understand him truly after his death.

Kagetsu Kanbayashi
The hero of the shining moon; a person that looks from afar. He's not the friendliest person around, taking each and every step of his and other's actions into observations and thoughts. In reality, he doesn't want anyone to make a mistake that'll cause great losses. He passed away after learning of what a friend is—and what to say at the right times.

Looking at _ body, if _ were to resurrect and split _ into the five of them, _ bet that they'll end up being young man around what _ had seen, exhaustion had already taken over _ senses and _ had fall into a long sleep without _ realizing.

Araki P.O.V

"Ugh… what was I doing? That was a weird dream." I woke up, ruffling my hair and brushing away the hair that had covered my eyes and making myself hard to sleep in this situation. What was I doing just now? Oh yeah, I'm watching a book! I kept away the textbook that I was supposed to use tomorrow into my bag, and looked at my calendar.

"Tomorrow's the day when I can finally enter Mitakihara Middle School!" I smiled a little, looking at my bag that my father bought for me due to my hyperactive attitude of being transferred to a new school. I sure miss my friends back in the old school I used to be in, but people gotta move on to experience new things, right?

"Aniki! C'mon, dinner is ready!" My brother, Takumi is calling for me. Ehh, he can cook quite well and fast… "Coming!" Wearing my jacket, I ran down the stairs and looked at the dishes he prepared. Daaaaaaamn, they all look good! My mouth watered, and Takumi chuckled at how I was hungering for food.

"Dad and mom left a little while ago when you were asleep, so feel free to dig in now, aniki!" I nodded, giving him a small pat on his head while smiling towards him. Sitting on the dining table, me and brother gave each other an understanding nod while our grins started to get wider on the roulette that we usually do before we start to dig in.

Clap!

We clasped our hands and exclaimed—
"Itadakimasu!"

Finishing the meal and washing the dishes, I'm quite satisfied with how tasty the food was for my taste buds! Takumi said that he can do better than how he did today though, so I'll look forward to it when my tummy literally bursts open with the food he made filling my stomach!

Ding-dong!

Ah, was that the doorbell? I ran to the door, since Takumi's bathing now and I couldn't help but wonder who was at the door now? It's 9 P.M. now, so could it be mom and dad? No way, they just left home a while ago if I am correct, so… I dunno, I think I'll just open the door and find out myself!

"Hello, are you Araki Tachibana?" It was the postman! But… I didn't order anything. The heck? DID I STRIKE A LOTTERY!?

"U-U-u-u-um….. did I strike the lottery or something?" The postman was numb at my reply at first, but bursted out into chuckles as he handed me a parcel and asked me to sign at the form. I took the item and immediately notice something not right—

"Wait, what the fuck? This isn't a signing paper! What are you—"

WHAM!

Makoto P.O.V

Wha-… I think I just fell asleep in the classroom for the whole day. It's night time now, so I better get to my apartment quickly before the owner locks the whole building. Ahh, the cold aura and the lonely describing in town never cease to amaze me as I proceeded through one and other roads to reach my apartment.

The view of people disgusts me, as I saw clear deceiving again in front of my very eyes. It's not like I hate people, more like… I couldn't trust them. I shrug off the depressing thoughts; not wanting to remember a certain something that cause me to reject bonds. The surroundings are getting darker, so I better hurry back.

I arrive pretty quickly, thank god that the door that leads to stairs wasn't locked by the owner, so I went into my personal space to place my bag down, and relax on the bed. "What was the dream all about…? It sounded so vivid…" Yeah, I didn't forget what the dream was telling me. It's as if I lost something awake, and gained something asleep.

"Better not think too much about this. I need a bath."

Ending my random thoughts as one for passing time, I decided that I need to take a bath, refresh my body then go to sleep. I have school again tomorrow, of course—and I wouldn't like to miss it since the discipline teacher had two of those warning letters pending and I could get expelled at any time if I made another mistake.

From their view, duh.

The water trickles through my body, rinsing me of my stains. I sighed a little, and wondered what time is it. I may need to go to sleep after bathe, and I could spend some time surfing the net beforehand if I actually had the time to do that. I need some music notes, after all.

After finishing up, I was using the towel to ruffle my wet hair and opened my door, looking outside and seeing the great view of the city. It was magnificent, and couldn't be better than how I'd view it. Looking down, I suddenly noticed something—a man cloaked in black staring at me.

I was creeped out, for sure. I entered my room quickly and locked the door, going to sleep. What does the man want with me? Either way, he couldn't reach me in that state, so I'd be better off putting down these insecure thoughts and go to sleep.

Mihara P.O.V

Un. I blinked and suddenly realized that I was daydreaming all of a sudden. Must be smoking too much weed- oh wait, drank too much coffee. What was I gonna say!? I chuckled a little as I resumed my ongoing online game match between me and my clan mates in a death match.

"Miharaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa!" Oh shiet, mom's calling! But I need to finish up this game quickly, why can't she understand even once that online games can't be frickin paused!? "Coming already! Wait for a lil- YEEEEE" Yelling as I finished my match, I raced downstairs to see mom with an unamused face on.

"You have mail!" My mom passed a parcel for me—was it the high quality headphones that I bought? Wait, mom passed another one. I didn't think that I ordered that much stuff… FRICKIN ADS! Knew I shouldn't have visited websites that people had redirected me to. Buying the wrong stuff aside, I'm like—getting rickrolled a lot.

So, what would be these two items that had arrived at my doorstep? I bet one of them is my pre-ordered earphones, and one of them is packed with stuff I NEVA would've bought in the first place. Dad will suspect that I bought that kinda stuff again, heheh! I reached out to the postel in the right side of the bed that I placed the two stuff on.

"Oooh, daaang! Sweet headsets!" The yellow colored headsets, filled with black colored stripes was the one I used my money to get, and you bet that I wouldn't regret my choice! "Now what's this?" I looked to the second parcel and opened it, it had two items: one is a contract sorta thing, and one is a pretty charm! How would I describe it, umm—

It looks like a black egg and has a stand. Bakugan much? It's like something from an anime!

I figured that I should really leave the contract aside first. I need sleep! Daaamn tired.

Satomi P.O.V

"Ah." Within a blink, I return to my normal sight yet again. What was all that? What was I last doing? Oh yeah, I remembered—getting gum from my pocket. I shove my hands into my pocket, and suddenly noticed a life threatening truth that could shake my very fragile being from mentally to physically as my eyes widened—

The hallow space.
The very feeling of nothingness.
"Non-existent" represents this very moment—!

I'm outta gum.

I need to get some gum, pronto! Looking around, I try to notice if there's any convenient stores nearby to get some gum from—Aha! There's a 7-Eleven nearby! I was hyped, so I walked towards the store while checking that I had any spare change for buying some gum for myself to enjoy. I have like, 100 dollars left—so I'm quite sure that's sufficient for some gum.

"Welcome!" The staff bowed and exclaimed the catchphrase happily upon witnessing my entrance into the store—gosh, I need to come here more often. It's so cheery here. Walking to the counter, I looked around to see if there's any gum for me to purchase—aye, 5 Gum seems nice, a little expensive though.

Picking some packets of Pocky Sticks as well for some midnight snacks on break, I went to the counter to pay for what I chose. "Customer…" That's odd; never had I seen a customer that wants for a conversation before… Nevertheless, it's quite amusing. Looking at the staff, I had a look of curiosity on, wondering what the staff wants to talk about.

"There's a girl that always steals people's stuff when they made it out of the store, so better keep up your alert—wouldn't want your items stolen, y'know?" Well—it's not like me to abandon someone like that, so I might go check it out if I am pretty unlucky today. "Thanks." Bringing the plastic bag, I moved outside and somehow feel static in my head.

I saw a little lightning trickling on the ground, and walked the other way around to avoid it from zapping me unconscious—but not before noticing the girl with red hair hiding, of course! What could she be doing here? She looks homeless... just like he was before he bought a job. Shrugging, I wanted to ignore thinking of his past, it was definitely horrifying.

"Girl—" I call out.

Kagetsu P.O.V

I open my eyes from my sleep that I didn't realized I was in—the time's gotten pretty late now as of now, I sure slept for a long time… Urggh, the stretching of my body causes many places to react in pain towards my nerves—as I put away the novel that needs hours to actually complete and to comprehend.

It's night time already, I figured that I might have needed to clean up and prepare for school tomorrow, wouldn't want myself to mess up badly now. I walk around, picking up the scattered novels on the ground that I had kicked when I was sleeping—I had really made a damned mess around, jeez.

Replacing the novels that were out of place during my sleep, I gently reassembled them back to the bookshelf and categorizing them according to chapter number, series, and so on—it never bores me to have seen something so in place, I hate messy things and orders—very similar to how outer towns became with the wrong leader to guide the citizens.

"I wonder…" Yes, it's quite a habit of mine to decide what to read for tomorrow when I'm in school and I could read to pass time—"Aha, this one." Pulling out a novel named 'Revoke', and placing it into my bag, I was ready for tomorrow, but I would take a walk to at least exhaust myself a little before going to bed.

After a long walk, my legs were exhausted and I sat down on a bench that was located not far away from the entrance that leads to this garden. My house is just beside the alleyway after leaving the garden, so it wouldn't be much of a bother to me if I were to try and go back home even if I'm in an exhausted state.

…Someone had sat beside me without me even realizing—not even a creaking sound that the bench would make had appealed to my hearing. I figured that I should leave, there's something awfully wrong with the man's aura and his grin that seriously could disturb me, as my foot started to make contact with the ground and I am attempting to leave—

"Young man—
have you ever heard of Shintaro Kisaragi?"

"The eyes to never forget tragedies—"

I look back.

"How about a little deal between you and me…?"
The old man's grin—

widen.

A/N: Whew! I'm finally done with the Chapter! Until next time, ciao!
