Once again, I was back in that dream. I was floating above that empty blue wasteland where shards of glass fluttered. I still couldn't figure out what it was. Possibly hell or limbo, I thought.

From the black mists, familiar figures began to emerge. The first was a boy with orange hair. Obviously, it was Shirou.

"Senpai!" I shouted with joy, rushing towards him to hug him. "I'm so glad you're here!"

"Yes," he responded coldly.

"That's not like you, Senpai," I said, surprised.

"You see, Sakura, I'm no longer interested in you," he said, leaving me frozen at his words.

"S-Senpai... why would you say that?"

"Because I have someone better now."

"W-What are you talking about, Senpai?" I started to feel scared.

"She has me," Rin appeared on the scene to my dismay.

"I don't need anyone else," said Shirou.

Then they kissed passionately and walked away into the distance. I tried to follow them, but for some reason, I couldn't keep up with their pace. They disappeared into the mists.

"WHAT KIND OF JOKE IS THIS!?" I asked myself in desperation.

From the same mist, Kariya and Klaus emerged.

"I'm so glad you're alive..." I said, somewhat relieved, although their faces didn't look very friendly.

"You should stay away from us," Kariya said sharply.

"W-What are you saying!?"

"We died because of you," Klaus said, leaving me completely speechless.

"Just wanting to save you, just being with you, brings anyone into misfortune," Kariya added.

"It's all your fault," said Klaus.

"Why are you saying that!?" I screamed through tears.

"Because it is so," Kariya retorted. "Look what happened to me and Klaus. We fell into misfortune because of you."

"That's not true!"

"Because of you, because of you, because of you..." they began to chant in unison.

Suddenly, from behind, a chorus of children started chanting the same. I recognized every face. They were the children from the orphanage I couldn't save from Rosenberg's clutches.

"STOP!" I screamed, falling to my knees, begging for the torment to end.

"I see you're on the brink of collapse," someone said mockingly, caressing my face with a cold hand. It was obviously Angra Mainyu.

"Why are you doing this to me!?"

"Always deceiving yourself... I want it now..."

"I don't understand..."

"I want it now..." he said in a lower tone.

"What?" I asked, my voice breaking.

"I WANT IT NOW! GIVE ME YOUR HEART AND YOUR SOUL!" Angra Mainyu shouted, lunging at me, clawing my face.

"After all this time... I see the moment has come... to see who will control this body..."

"You have nothing left; everyone has died or left you. Everyone runs from you or dies around you."

"That's a lie... Do you think you could do better?"

"Of course! All the power you have is thanks to me!"

"But without me, you can't live, which makes you a parasite."

"Exactly," Angra Mainyu laughed.

"I appreciate you've helped me all these years, albeit in your own way. Both you and I know this situation is untenable."

"I see you're beginning to understand. From now on, I will take your body, and your consciousness will cease to exist..."

"I'm sorry, but from now on, I WILL BE THE ONE IN CONTROL!" I grabbed Angra Mainyu's head and began to tear him apart.

"WHAT ARE YOU DOING!?" Angra Mainyu screamed.

"Absorbing your powers. I can't guarantee if you'll disappear or not. But from now on, you'll be an obedient little dog. Do you understand?"

Once Angra Mainyu vanished, a white light enveloped me. I opened my eyes and returned to the real world. A ray of sunlight hit my face; I raised my arm to shield my eyes and realized there wasn't a single mark of possession left. I got up to inspect my naked body, seeing no marks on my legs or anywhere else.

I stood slowly among the rubble. I doubted if anyone had survived, but I had to get out as quickly as possible. I walked straight ahead, and by some twist of fate, I exited through the conduit where Klaus had hidden the suitcase. I put on some clothes from it and left without leaving any evidence.

I didn't know what fate had in store for me, but that "hysteria" attack had marked a before and after in my life.
