A teenage girl jolted awake from a strange dream to find herself lying on the beach not far from her house. The girl's name was Chie Ayano and she was sixteen years old, with long, wavy brown hair and tanned skin. For a moment, she pondered over what she had dreamt about.
It had certainly been very odd and scary, an enormous dark monster had swallowed her up, which had also been the reason she had woken up. Was it a dream? It most likely was. Whatever, she was awake now and she needed mushrooms.
Chie walked into a place that she was sure only she knew about, she had dubbed it 'The secret place'. She'd hung out there all the time from she was little, so she knew the place like the back of her hand.
The cave was covered in drawings she made. At the very end of the cave, there was a strange door. She frowned. "That wasn't there before…" She muttered as she walked towards it. She then thought better of it and went to check on her raft.
That had been what the mushrooms were for, she had always wanted to see other worlds and this raft could just grant that wish and she needed food for later. As she thought of it, she decided to go and check on it.
She went to the cove and ziplined down to her raft after eating some fruit. She had decided on calling it Excalibur, she liked that name. She had long put a water bottle, Trout, Papou fruit, a towel, logs, and a few coconuts. She went to go and find some coconuts and suddenly found a man standing there, his face hidden and jumped back, startled, having not expected him there.
"I've come to seek the door in this world." He said in a monotone. "This world has been connected." Chie noticed he had a large 'X' on his coat and just stared at him. She still could not see his face.
The man crossed his arms. "Tied to the darkness, soon to be completely eclipsed. You do not yet know what lies beyond the door. There is very much to learn you understand...so little." As Chie looked on, he continued. "A meaningless effort. One who knows nothing can understand...nothing."
The man chuckled and moved his hand, swishing it almost like a cape. A dark portal appeared and he stepped through it, disappearing and suddenly, it seemed he had never been there at all. Chie stared at where he had been, before walking away.
She sat down on the raft as it bobbed up and down in the water, working on a shell necklace, watching the sun sink behind the trees in a reddish-orange glow.
She abandoned her necklace, collected her water bottle and climbed up on a tree so she got a better view. She loved watching the sunset, it was part of her routine for as long as she could remember.
She plucked a coconut from the tree and began to eat it and sipped her water. She planned on getting up at 7 am sharp the next day and set sail, finally fulfilling her dream to see the world.
The sun set behind the trees and it started to get dark. Chie scrambled down from her tree and placed a cover over her raft, before racing off to her house. She planned on getting a good night's sleep tonight.
She went into her house and up to her room, before switching on her TV. She wasn't tired yet, so she decided on just watching TV until she was. About an hour later, the power shut off and her TV switched off, but that was the least of her worries.
A thunderstorm had begun outside and she heard people screaming. "The raft!" She cried out before she jumped out of her window and onto her boat, going over the waves and on to the island.
As she neared the island, she heard soft growling, before tiny black creatures appeared and started to attack people, some ran away screaming, while others stayed and fought them with whatever they could get their hands on.
As Chie's boat reached and she jumped off, there was an army of the black creatures, all scratching at dead bodies on the ground. Chie panicked and ran off to the secret place.
Once inside, she pushed a boulder in front of it, so none could get in and leaned against it, trying to calm herself down. "That better hold them off!" But, what...were those things? She thought to herself.
"They're my minions," A voice said from behind Chie, making her scream and jump. Behind her was the hooded man from before.
"What do you want from me?!" Chie demanded. The man, however, didn't seem to hear or care what she said.
"They're people who have lost their hearts." Chie looked through the crack and was horrified to see that all the tents were torn and the raft she had worked so hard on was destroyed.
"No! Who are you?! Who do you think you are?!" Chie yelled.
The man simply laughed and snapped his fingers, disappearing again.
A black hole appeared, sucking Chie into it, oblivious to her fighting to get away from it.
She woke up to find herself not in the secret place anymore, but in what looked like a very bright alleyway...with a dog right in her face. She screeched, shocked and the dog retreated quickly. She looked around, bewildered.
"Where...am I?"
