A/N: So yeah… I figured I might as well just update this one too…

This chap is about Solfege, it turned out longer than I thought it would and it might be a bit…strange.

I'm kinda making a reference to my Random Pairing Project, so for people who've read that, I hope you know which chap I'm talking about lol.

"The EZI Pyjamas"

Part 3

The EZI Pyjamas found their way through the river to Tenuto, where Solfege fished them out of the river. She recognized the face of EZI, even though the picture was pretty faded by now. She found a very faded label on the inside of the right sleeve.

"… jama... as… it… e… f… Yo..l.. i… ou… slee… n… it."

This wasn't a very useful description, but Solfege had learned not to judge something by its appearance. It was obvious these were pyjamas, and she could always use an extra pair, for when winter decided to stop by their tiny village. She washed them, dried them and folded them up nicely to them lay them in the closet for the next few months.

After a week she had already completely forgotten about these strange pyjamas she had fished out of the river. But a month later, winter hit the village, and not just your usual winter, but a freezing cold one. Outside was a thick layer of snow, it was impossible to get out of your house, not to mention going through the forest to buy food in Rittardando.

Solfege had hurled herself in front of the fireplace where one of her last logs of firewood was burning, she had wrapped herself in all of the blankets she could find, wearing all of her pyjamas at the same time.

Like that she fell asleep, totally unaware of what the night had in store for her.

She woke up from a knock on the door. Confused and still half asleep, she got up from her cozy place and wobbled over to the door. It didn't seem as cold as before, and it was light outside, had she already slept the entire night?

When she opened the door there was no one there, and where was the snow? How come it looked like spring while it was the middle of winter?

"Oh…" she thought, "maybe Frederic has died already and the world has reset itself again." She nodded to herself in agreement and stepped outside to pick up little Polka in the flower field.

It was strangely quiet outside, even if it was early in the morning, there'd usually be some birds around. She didn't really mind, it was better that no one saw how Polka came floating down the sky, surrounded by glowing Agogo's.

When she reached the flower fields, she noticed Polka coming down. The light of the Agogo's made it hard to make out Polka's figure. She was still pretty high up, so Solfege decided to sit down while waiting for Polka to reach the ground.

While she was making a flower crown for little Polka, she noticed that the soft sea breeze turned into a rough wind. Clouds flocked together, and the sky was becoming darker.

This had never happened before and worried Solfege. She looked up to see Polka was still steadily descending towards the earth. The wind didn't seem to effect her. The Agogo's were probably protecting her.

Solfege narrowed her eyes and looked at Polka a little better. Now that the glowing mass had gotten closer, it didn't look so much like Polka at all. She spotted a top hat, why would Polka wear a top hat? What were the almighty people above thinking?

As the figure in the top hat came even closer, Solfege noticed it was also a lot larger than Polka. This couldn't be Polka, but if it wasn't Polka, then what could it be?

A top hat! Solfege realized it now. The only person she knew who wore a top hat, was Frederic, the man which this was all about. But why would he be descending down from the sky?

Solfege shrugged, they probably had a good reason to do this. Even though something like this had never happened before.

She stood up, trying to stand still on one place, which was a little hard because of the wind. As the person came closer to the earth, Solfege extended her hands to catch the new person she was going to have to take care of for a while.

When it was close enough she saw it was indeed Frederic, slightly younger, but it was Frederic.

The moment she touched his body, his eyes flashed open. They were a flaming red, and showed pure hatred. This wasn't something Solfege had expected, so she pulled her hands back in surprise.

By doing this she caused him to fall down. She wanted to help him up, but took a step back when she noticed blue smoke coming from his body.

His body twitched and he raised himself up, in a way no normal human could, and stared at her with his flaming eyes. He smiled, but his smile seemed empty. There was something wrong, very very wrong.

Solfege looked panicked, what was happening? Frederic took a step closer, and Solfege took a step back. Frederic's eye twitched and he extended an arm. He touched her face in a gentle way, but his hand was cold.

Solfege froze in disgust, this wasn't Frederic, and something had gone wrong. But she wasn't afraid, soon the almighty people above would realize an error had occurred and would reset the world again.

Though, nothing happened. Frederic came closer and closer, now holding her face with both his hands. He held his face close to hers, as if he was going to kiss her. His burning eyes stayed on hers the entire time.

Now Solfege started to feel a burning pain on her cheeks, from the corner of her eye she could see purple smoke coming from his hands, and thus also her face. He wore a smirk on his face and opened his mouth.

"You killed me Solfege…" This confused her, had she ever killed him? She could not remember. "You killed me, and now I will finally get my revenge." Memories started flooding her mind. Now she remembered, and realized she had made a grave mistake in the past.

A whole lot of world resets ago, she had selfishly killed Frederic, because she just could not stand to lose Polka all over again. The almighty people above had punished her, and she had never done it again.

But why, why would Frederic come seek revenge now? After all this time?

The pain on her cheeks became worse, too much to still think clearly. She started screaming, wanted to rip herself out of his grip, but her held on tight, and burned away her cheeks with his cold hands.

He breathed on her, whirling her in purple smoke. Her body started to burn everywhere, she wanted to close her eyes, rip herself out of this, run away, but was unable to do so. Somehow she was unable to move and was forced to stay in this hellhole.

Frederic was still holding her face, glaring at her with his burning eyes, forcing her to keep her eyes open.

This was the worst Solfege had ever felt, not only had she lost Polka, she was also getting killed by the person she was supposed to lead to his destiny.

A tear rolled down her check, and Frederic burst into a maniacally laugh. She started to scream, louder and louder, hoping it would ease away some of the pain.

Solfege's head hit the wooden floor of her house, she opened her eyes and gasped for air. Where was she? Where did Frederic go? She looked around in a panic.

She was at home, still wrapped in all of her blankets and pyjamas, in front of the fireplace. It had all just been a dream, nothing had happened. The world hadn't been reset, Frederic hadn't come to seek revenge, Polka was still on her journey.

She let out a sigh of relief while she got out of all the blankets. Outside it was light, and you could see the snow on the window-still.

Still, she felt that awful burning feeling all over her body, but she figured it was just her imagination. She walked to the wash table to splash some water in her face. After doing so she dried her face and took a glance in the mirror.

That was when she saw it. On both of her cheeks were big red burning marks. She screamed, fell onto the floor, crawled up again and checked the mirror again.

Yep, they were definitely there, two burning marks, kind of shaped like hands.

"It must have been the heat…" She thought. "I think one of the sparks from the fire fell onto my face." But she couldn't shake the feeling off it was something more.

She got out of all her clothes. Then noticed the EZI pyjamas. She had been wearing them straight onto her skin, and they were soaked in sweat. " I guess I'll wash them while I bathe in the river."

She went outside and quickly jumped into the water to cool herself. It felt like heaven to her cheeks, and stayed in for quite a while, even after her toes got numb. During that time she washed her dirty clothes, and thus also the EZI pyjamas.

But the EZI pyjamas had done its job and decided it should go look for another victim. Solfege lost grip on them because of her numb fingers and the pyjamas glided away from her in silence. She only noticed they were gone once she took her hands out of the water.

And thus the EZI pyjamas went to look for another victim, determined to make sure everyone in this world would experience their greatest nightmare.
