By now, Amaria had given up all hope and was ready for death, if the time came. Being forced into this unconscious state and being unable to fight back in any way aggrivated Amaria. Yet, helplessness would aggrivate most people. She wondered what Muraki's actual motives were and about what would happen to Tsuzuki if he came to rescue her.
Tsuzuki... Was there really any chance of him still coming to save her? Her doubts seemed to increase the longer she was unconscious. Suddenly, Amaria heard Muraki's voice in her head, "Open your eyes." he commanded her.
She immediately did so against her will. She saw the room, plain and dark, and was surprised to find out that she was standing up. Facing the doorway as she was, she saw Tsuzuki walk in. Amaria's spirits immediately lifted as she saw him.
She wanted to scream his name, to run over and hug him. But, she could not because Muraki had taken control of her body. "Attack." Muraki commanded her once more. Amaria's body bolted forward and broke into a run, straight for Tsuzuki. She silently panicked as she saw the large knife in her own hand, poised to kill.
