Tragedy 101 - Home

It doesn't make sense, how the water moves when I've stopped the time, Joe's mind standing in limp. The water had just receded as soon as Rei got out of their place.


"Whatis that? Can he fly?" One of the evolvers looked at Rei who was able to fly.


"Why does water move? Didn't you stop time?" Another Evolver looked at Joe with a confused look. Joe was silent without answering his sentence.


"Cursue! Either way, we have to catch him!" Joe was followed by some of his men in the back.


They attacked Rei with his strength. Trying to stop Rei who is now drifting away from the ground.


Rei kept moving. He moved his legs and continued to fly somewhere. Rei did not even realize that he was currently floating in the air, all he thought about was a way to be free from the pursuit of them all.


"Argh.." Rei grimaced as soon as one of Joe's attacks, successfully hitting a part of his body. Rei almost fell down, lucky that he could survive and continue to fly away from the people down there.



Bzzz!


Joe again attacks Rei with his strength, and his attack again hits Rei.


Rei stopped his steps. He landed on one of the rooftops of the building not far from his place.


Rei held onto the part of his body that felt so painful from Joe's attack.


It hurts so much, he hurt my body, Rei's inner. He was silent for a moment while enduring the pain.

William opened the door slowly. "Rei, I've come home" he shouted as he took off the shoes and socks attached to his feet. William put his shoes in a shelf near the entrance.


William stepped in. His eyes circled around, looking for Rei's whereabouts somewhere.


"It's really quiet, is Rei sleeping?" william muttered as soon as he arrived at the living room in the usual place Rei spent his time.


There the television was dead, and the room was completely silent like no one was there at all.


William, who could not find Rei anywhere, stepped towards the second floor to look for him.


William looked for Rei in his room, but the man who became his cousin was really nowhere.


"Surprisingly, he's nowhere, did Rei come out? But there's no way he's out, Rei doesn't even know the streets around here, and he has no other purpose." William was silent for a moment thinking about where Rei had gone that he could not find.


His attenuation suddenly shifted when William heard the sound of the door being closed.


"That must be Rei" he said slowly.


William immediately moved down to check who had just closed the door.


"Rei, where have you been. I searched.." William stopped his steps as soon as he saw who had just arrived.


"Will, you happened to come down, let's eat, I brought food for us. Oh, call Rei too." Elvina looked up at her sister who was standing there. The woman arrived with several large plastic bags filled with food which she then placed on a table in the living room.


"What are you doing? Why just shut up?" Elvina again glanced at her sister who was just silent.


"I guess, you're Rei," he murmured.
