The thick fog separated the two sword-armed youths involuntarily further away from their respective positions. Thick fog that restricts eye sight, the air that is caused by the air makes them more difficult to breathe.
“Ayatoo..”.
“Irvin..”
Call each of them but no answer is heard in their ears.
“Irvin, I do not like to joke at times like this, come hide from me,” Ayato said while continuing the straight path even though she did not see the atmosphere in front of her.
Ayato screeced angrily then without wanting to beat around the bush again, deciding to leave Irvin's mark. He walked down the foggy road quickly and his misgivings around made it even harder to find a way out.
On the other hand, Irvin patted Ayato on the shoulder who had not turned her head and it made her uneasy. “Ayato, I've been looking for you since you're here. Hey Ayato, did you hear me?”
Irvin pulled back his hand on Ayato's shoulder which had been motionless. It was alarming, Irvin tried to waggle with his own hands so that the fog disappeared but unfortunately the flutter could not beat the thick of the fog.
Irvin turned his head behind him where Ayato was, Ayato was still silent and still staring at him. He turned back to face forward, Ayato was standing there behind him, then turned again to the right again when Ayato was there. Irvin gasped in surprise then narrowed his eyes suspiciously. With a quick movement he immediately turned to the left side and then returned to the back. Ayato is everywhere.
Irvin closed his eyes trying as soon as possible, he tried to guess which one was the real Ayato. He opened his eyes slowly looking down but still reluctantly looked the other way making the fake Ayato-Ayato turn to face him forcing Irvin to look at them.
“Oy...oy... Ayato since when did you have a thousand shadows, your shadows frightened me.” decak Irvin laughed forcibly as the fake Ayato approached her with lanban and the various expressions that were aimed at looked so scary. Some furrowed their eyebrows, smiled widely showing their teeth, flat faces tend to be moody, sad, even upset.
Their position was getting closer, Irvin's reflexes ran forward without thinking about having to hit some of them that were important at the moment, he could escape from that terrifying illusion. A big step was created between his two feet that were busy moving to escape from the place earlier.
“AAuch...” groans a grandmother in a fog.
Irvin fell because he hit the grandmother but not with the grandmother who was still standing. The grandmother looked at Irvin with a face full of confusion. He also lowered his head with his hands to give a help to the young man he had just seen in the neighborhood.
“Thank you grandma,” Irvin intends to take his hand off the hands of the grandmother but so difficult. Several times he tried and asked that his hand be removed but still could not. Irvin began to panic and was afraid, suddenly the old grandmother said. “Son, did you see my baby grandson, who was about 1.5 years old?”
Irvin could only shake his head at the question from the old granny who was still holding him strong. Of course, the grandmother knew that her arm was the answer no, she immediately let go of Irvin's hand violently until he fell back. While Irvin grimaced in unexpected pain an old grandmother was very strong like that in addition to the hand that had been touched with the skin of the grandmother became slimy, slimy, either the grandmother had finished holding what was clear Irvin's hand felt very sticky and made Irvin himself keep his hand away from him.
“My grandson Irvin, where are you?” the granny's scream made Irvin shocked and then stopped the grandmother.
“Sorry Grandma, introduce my name is also Irvin the same as the name of the granddaughter of the grandmother, if you may know whose full name?” said Irvin trying to ask politely to the strange grandmother.
The old grandmother replied. “Name Irvin Forke.”
The reply from the grandmother made Irvin shudder. With a little stammering Irvin muttered small but still heard in the ears of the grandmother. “A~aku Irvin For~ke.”
The grandmother moved suddenly almost managed to hug Irvin if only Irvin was not aware of the grandmother's rapid movements. The old grandmother had a lethargic expression on her face after Irvin refused the hug for real.
Irvin felt a little sorry for that grandma. “Sorry grandma, but I'm not grandma's granddaughter. Look I've grown up, not a baby like grandma looking.” Rebuttals.
Irvin closed his eyes while struggling. “Tidaaaaak..”
Ayato turned towards the door of the room, she seemed to hear something but the sound of water rustling could be heard disguising her hearing. Not knowing where he was now, Ayato was still walking confidently even though the falling water was further submerging her feet. After passing through the fog of doubt at the beginning, Ayato had reached a large, but seedy, mansion, dirty filled with dust and cobwebs, although the unique design makes the flaws as an enhancer of the dark atmosphere in the house.
Not enough for a few minutes, the water that came down began to harden and now only half his chest is left and it was getting harder for him to walk and finally decided to swim alone. There is nothing to worry about because he thinks Irvin knows how to swim well.
The chairs and other items in the room also floated, it made Ayato a little difficult to move but her strong determination continued to act back and forth while the space narrowed.
Finally without waiting for a long time, Ayato did not have enough space because this water had reached the roof of the house so there was no other way but to dive into this room full of water. He immediately drowned himself which at that time his eyes immediately caught 15 shadows of himself making him astonished.
“Ayato..” call them together.
Holding his breath, Ayato watched a small drama that was done by her own shadow.
One of them said. “Ayato, one day you will become stronger than your father, enter the front line of fighters in order to be able to boast of your parents.”
One of them suddenly denied. “No, you should hate your parents who so clearly used you.”
The other Ayato was determined. “Well as your mother wishes, I can definitely.”
“No Ayato, Harina is ready? Why do you want to protect her?”
Then his childhood moments are seen. “Mother, I want to be a big man someday.”
“Dad, look I'll be a different person than you guys, certainly more great.”
Back to himself who was in the midst of emotions punching a wooden rod that was no longer sturdy.
“Ayato you are too confident, you will not be able to be Harina's bodyguard because they in the future not necessarily Harina needs you.”
“Ayato... Ayato's... People hate you, even your parents don't want your birth. Stop wishing someone could stand by your side. Irvin is also now uncomfortable with you.”
“Ayato, don't you see me?”
Seeing himself who was always worried, he moved to close his eyes and ears could not hear the babble that had stopped in his little heart. And because of that, he was increasingly confused about what he really was.
Ayato was increasingly distressed by questions about her identity, while Irvin was increasingly distressed by her doubts about taking steps so that it was difficult for her to get through the illusion of fog.
They both opened their eyes. “Hey, is that scary for you?”
