Gold had heard Crystal scream and raced outside. He saw her still body and his eyes widened. There wasn't anything he could do. He turned to leave when he heard Mr. Sakakibara call out to him...
"Gold Izuna! What are you doing out here?" Mr. Sakakibara asked. "I was... I was just..." Gold said as he backed away. "Wait. Kouichi. That boy. He... He has the colour of death!" Mei exclaimed. "The colour of death? But that would mean...!" They two adults stared at the scared boy was who also another 'Casualty'. Tears were streaming down Gold's face and Mei and Mr. Sakakibara knew what had to be done, they hardly even noticed when Silver came out...
It had been just shortly after the school year had ended. Gold had been excited to finally be in Grade 9. He was excited and wanted to celebrate. He and his friends went off. The group was Gold, Silver, Crystal, Sapphire, Emerald and Ruby. The six of them were off getting treats and just hanging out at the beach. Sapphire had been the one to suggest swimming.
No one thought it was a bad idea. In fact it was pretty hot outside. So they went into the water. No one thought to make sure that Gold could swim safely. He was an okay swimmer and liked to show off. Sapphire swam out to bring him back to shore, she only had gotten about halfway before the boat came speeding by. It separated her from Gold and caught her off-guard. She went under and didn't come back up. Silver hurried in to save Gold, he had always been a good swimmer. By the time he reached Gold the other had gone under. Silver managed to drag Gold back but it was too late...
"No." Gold said as he backed away. "Please don't." Gold begged. Silver reached over and grabbed Gold. "You shouldn't be here! I remember now! I remember! You died!" Silver screamed. His stomach felt so sick now. All this time he had been hanging out with a dead person... "...You drowned! You drowned! I tried to save you but I couldn't! You and Sapphire died that day!" Silver exclaimed. "Silver...! No! I don't know what you're talking about!" Gold screamed as he struggled to get away.
Mei walked towards the two struggling boys. "Silver. To end the curse you must return the dead back to death." Mei stated. Silver looked at Mei slightly shocked. "You mean... We have to kill him again?!" Silver exclaimed. Mr. Sakakibara nodded his head. "It's the only way. Back when I was a student in Class 3-3, my aunt... She was the 'extra'... I had to kill her to end the curse." He explained. Silver looked at Gold and felt the tears stinging his eyes. "Okay... Okay..."
