The door opened…
WHOOOOSSHH!
"Gaaah!" The woman's hands covered one eye each, as she spitted down.
"Huh?!" Hun closed his mouth, while his right arm was covering his eyes.
Sand and dust were flying towards the two Inklings, by the loud wind.
"Wh-what's happening…?" Her right forefinger moved slightly to the right, as her right iris was looking in between the two fingers.
A table's face was pointing at the woman, with several test tubes crashed on the sand. A chair was almost covered by the sand, while pages were spread around the area.
"Noooo!" Her right iris shrunk. "My workshop!"
The wind became quieter: her hands went down, as her mouth was wide open. In front of her, mountains of sand and a sky colored in a light yellow: giant, outlined only Squids were swimming upwards.
"What's happening?!" Hun frowned, as he walked on the woman's right side. "Why there is sand all over the place?!"
"… I should had believed the voices…"
"Voices?" Hun's head turned to his left, watching the woman keeping her expression. "What did they said?!"
"… they said that the world was about to forget itself…" Her head turned to her right, as her mouth downturned. "I did believe in what they said… in fact, I got used to not get out of my house because of such believe." Her head shook. "The same voices told us that a huge disaster would had shown up… under the form of this huge pile of sand you are seeing."
"They even said when this sand would come?!" Hun frowned a bit more.
"They couldn't know… and I, as a fool, just ignored their prediction." She nodded. "It was too exaggerated for my tastes… ju-just look what the sand did to my workshop!" She turned forward, as her knees bended down. "Years of work… years of dedication… y-years of passion…"
Her eyes went a bit watery, as her head lowered down a bit.
"Gone… th-they are all gone!" Her teeth gritted. "It's all lost… the sand is coming to wipe us out."
"NO! Don't say that!" Hun went in front of the woman, as his eyes went a bit watery. "I'll get rid of this sand! I swear!" His right fist clenched.
"… Hun, I admire your courage…" Her head returned upwards, as she smiled a bit. "Unfortunately, there is no way to stop this desert… it's too big to be stopped."
"Just tell me what I need to do!" Hun nodded. "I'll do it in a jiffy!"
"I don't know… I don't know…" Her head shook a bit, as her eyes went even more watery and her eyebrows went up. "… I don't even know if we will meet again, at this point…"
"Don't even think about it!" Hun's hands went on her shoulders. "I'll get to the bottom of this… you get inside your home and wait for me."
"… thank you, Hun…" The woman smiled, as she left a sob.
WHOOOOOSSH!
"Go! Go!" Hun pushed the woman a bit.
She stands up, rushing towards the door.
"Good luck, Hun!" Her left hand grabbed the door handle, pulling the whole door with her.
Clic.
The boy turned forward, as his right arm covered his eyes.
"I swear, I'm going to put things into normality." He began walking forward. "No matter how many days of sleep I need!"
Hun's feet were stepping on the sand, as the wind kept whooshing towards him.
"I wonder who's behind this… that monster perhaps?"
The wind went silent: the boy's right arm went down. His eyes were seeing outline of clouds and one depicting a Sun.
"Wow… is it me or those ones are drawn?" Hun's mouth opened a bit. "That's so odd…"
The boy kept walking forward…
… his tongue was sticking out, as his eyebrows were up: he kept breathing loudly, as his whole face was covered in sweat.
"Uff… uff… I must have been walking for hours…" His eyes squeezed for a moment. "I'm so tired… I'm so sick of this sand…"
From the distance, a shadowy Inkling girl was standing still.
"… huh…? Who's there…?" Hun's eyelids went to the middle. "… hopefully, someone friendly…"
The boy's pace increased in speed, getting closer and closer towards the girl: slowly, the darkness faded away from the Inkling…
"… uh… … HUH?!" His eyes expanded.
An outline of an Inkling girl was standing still, with her arms crossed.
"Mirii?!" His jaw dropped.
"Get out of here. Now." Her head rose. "You are just wasting your time…"
"Wh-what happened to you?!" Hun's head went up and down.
"None of your business: think to yourself and walk back." Her head nodded.
"… are you even the real Mirii?!" Hun frowned, as his fists rose a bit.
"Why that would matter? You walked for nothing: get back in your ink already." Her right arm and hand tilted to her right.
"I will not!" His eyes squeezed a bit. "Are you responsible for all this sand?!"
"… I thought seeing a gentle girl would had changed your mind…" Her eyes closed. "Aaaaah, why I always have to do things in the hard way?!"
The outline melted into the sand: Hun gasped loudly. Suddenly, black lines were appearing from thin air, connecting with each other: quickly, the lines formed outlines of walls surrounding Hun, platforms which were moving back and forth and water waves below the platforms.
"What are your plans, fiend?!" Hun's head rose. "Why do you want to destroy a world?!"
Who told you I want to destroy a world?! My nice, dear desert is ALL I ever need! I wouldn't even spend a single sweat, caring a bit about the other worlds… except when they become part of my desert.
"That's so low!" Hun growled. "You are destroying entire worlds, just because you want to expand your sand?! That's very low! You can't be this egoistic!"
… so? Is that the reason why you are here? Pffff… how about you get in one of those worlds and disappear along with them?
"Never!" Hun frowned a lot. "If you still keep acting like this, I'm forced to stop you! N-no matter what kind of illusions you are throwing at me!"
Sigh… I'm just asking to get away with this, by acting easy and cool… especially now that my friend is here to play with me.
"Your friend…?" Hun's mouth opened a bit.
Yes, because I have a social life unlike you! I mean… uuugh, you are just too boooriiing. You must be the King of Generics: you are so generic, that even a guy who keeps talking about how "average" he is, manages to be more unique than you will ever be.
"If having a social life means to have friends like you, then I prefer being alone!" Hun's right thumb pointed at himself.
You pretty much live alone, numb-nut… but hey, perhaps you might have some interesting skills to show.
"I don't care about it!" Hun bended forward. "I just want you to stop acting so mean!"
… you forgot to say "Please" to me.
"… please." Hun's eyes blinked.
Uuuuugghh, you are so numb-nut! I have enough of you… do you see those walls? That's your new home: as barebones as your brain. The platforms you see are just decorations for you… it's not like you will pass this course brilliantly, anyway.
"Course…? Wh-what's she talking about?" His eyes were staring back at a floating platform. "… maybe I can jump on that black line…?"
