Darkness filled the room.

71Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡq3HeOFYirj

71Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxFbwyJcGqk

Complete.

71Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsmSMa4db5i

Silent.

71Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbxqdDlbqAd

---

71Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsPc2LIEMSg

Liyana couldn’t see anything.

71Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWQ2jtkqTOS

But she could feel it—

71Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIZCSE7LX3H

she wasn’t alone.

71Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4kS2Nr99ED

---

71Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqgwFZdYY3i

Her breathing grew uneven.

71Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4lNh1krVgo

“Who’s there?” she whispered.

71Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsescbb19ky

---

71Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUNBiIP2Ssg

A pause.

71Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7GmuYyujYr

---

71Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9J26DKRfxw

Then—

71Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUCFuYMnOWK

footsteps.

71Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡeKGqMEcZqC

---

71Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpAjLAJFmlH

Soft.

71Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡurIMNyp0HS

Slow.

71Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡv6dUsAO2Rj

---

71Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUNtqI7ZCi5

Coming closer.

71Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡy3xmLRkPq9

---

71Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpWi8HEdVW1

“You heard us,” a voice said.

71Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdIS1U5sdXt

Not cold.

71Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡH0yleDm7Hs

Not mechanical.

71Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3I6LENnIXe

Human.

71Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡamSA4wKkwC

---

71Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNGpW2DILV7

A faint light flickered.

71Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡaofTgAxw32

---

71Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOlVdL2WBCM

Shapes began to form in the darkness.

71Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡu9FMeJ4Qch

---

71Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKWErdD887F

Figures.

71Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2iz16LGJrW

---

71Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpVp7MKYMzb

Students.

71Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡr4h2cJAHNe

---

71Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡydKtADaSo1

Standing around her.

71Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsTwCAXYO7E

---

71Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtqcbQ5utC6

All wearing black.

71Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkiKrF0XFGW

---

71Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsJMHNyuXTZ

No colors.

71Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLwUpL5JYk2

---

71Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLMbW5Nde6w

Just like her.

71Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBMruC9DSLT

---

71Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfGtgNxTNHj

Her heart pounded.

71Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXfnofNMj2d

“You… you’re real?”

71Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvpe7GAt12Y

---

71Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLK63ytESUL

A girl stepped forward.

71Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYDUGXNK3hp

Calm eyes. Steady voice.

71Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKSXTgXhTo3

---

71Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsLnjeP4hIc

“We were erased,” she said.

71Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYUoA4EWnhB

“But not gone.”

71Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvuG2rfP8F0

---

71Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEW9kCCDxUQ

Liyana’s breath caught.

71Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwhtqvKFCxp

---

71Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLZuDdAUDvn

“The system couldn’t delete us completely,” another voice added.

71Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvM6GYTmlyk

“So it hid us.”

71Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMVSrLtWh3T

---

71Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡum139SEUDo

“Where?” Liyana asked.

71Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWGsgGRzcWn

---

71Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0eg8MjWIdG

The girl looked around.

71Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAYT71Z3hy5

---

71Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEL2tXGr8bx

“Between its rules.”

71Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcSZY8FQNWj

---

71Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡP0OV0OCt5J

Silence.

71Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYn5uKX59et

---

71Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgyP9bCOJU5

Liyana didn’t fully understand—

71Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2GWOU19jdw

but she felt the truth in it.

71Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡL5Ry19mqFX

---

71Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5dgJlof2sJ

“You’re like me…” she said slowly.

71Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWzRG0M2f0k

---

71Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6RKC1Gk8uq

The girl nodded.

71Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIXquDbB3c9

---

71Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡziKGRk5mki

“No color. No category.”

71Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡik83tMXN6K

---

71Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPGPczq2PbL

“Errors.”

71Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcxuEeDZBSn

---

71Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOGxQYv2qFQ

Liyana shook her head.

71Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLAa42V8Jb7

---

71Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7EKLwjfXfd

“No.”

71Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXfKKqkSkvx

---

71Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡq2B9pQzs6l

Her voice grew stronger.

71Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡix4U7HA1Xn

---

71Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡE8xUYUS3c5

“We’re not errors.”

71Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9q77cGgEtS

---

71Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡyN02bQKFDg

A small pause.

71Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEUK7pCk2nk

---

71Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡuuTe1MVauu

Then—

71Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJbTVF3tsWv

something changed in their expressions.

71Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKVEKMgB1bK

---

71Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡksuL5boneP

Hope.

71Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡoXPBnUwggB

---

71Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1hPvMoSFJE

For the first time.

71Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcCvGNoisGo

---

71Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡn3Y3VE5vBU

Suddenly—

71Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlYpDfyHV0F

a loud alarm shattered the moment.

71Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMdEjyJcwq1

---

71Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqcu0oUIMfq

Red light flashed across the room.

71Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQdNdkTQO8O

---

71Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5tJr03F7vs

“System breach detected.”

71Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡM8mvm2radn

---

71Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡt6gq6GXOk9

“Unauthorized presence.”

71Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlbKKBuCyQS

---

71Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡyBIlFRzGJ1

The walls trembled slightly.

71Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYAu1LteTEU

---

71Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEyc326q4k0

“They found us,” someone whispered.

71Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTAftznVJ9T

---

71Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡp6lvLcq28a

The calm girl turned to Liyana.

71Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡN1nrCn1WzV

---

71Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡeEpXJ2Wx4p

“You broke the system,” she said.

71Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡObf9Qp3Nxq

“That’s why it woke us up.”

71Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNv28wRxZcj

---

71Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLoZQaNcBmq

Liyana stared at her.

71Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5ax7CByVgy

---

71Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTOPyWTl91i

“I didn’t mean to—”

71Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvGxwjGtZaN

---

71Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGlaxk0szkJ

“It doesn’t matter,” the girl cut in.

71Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqp111aiFOm

“What matters is what you do now.”

71Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhcpcx4ovbE

---

71Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGrfbsd8OmL

The alarm grew louder.

71Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡaE6CL4x0Bg

---

71Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡw7N94XVNy4

Footsteps echoed outside.

71Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLWgTMz7upq

---

71Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6ymoDrubJ0

Fast.

71Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUQkwiKqnkQ

Heavy.

71Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzdipSYy7QI

---

71Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAhpM0ch3lf

“They’re coming,” someone said.

71Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7puxHc0BbD

---

71Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8UELUH2FnS

Fear spread.

71Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1mkxoFiHSK

---

71Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡf6hN2PUSWy

But not panic.

71Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4cGNRiNIcn

---

71Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡyNooDvUCDL

Not anymore.

71Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDi9tf7QhQO

---

71Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDGAAAVeCCk

The girl stepped closer to Liyana.

71Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡf8ndcMuUgn

---

71Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡf6preqEMLJ

“You have a choice.”

71Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡyxLruQXqBr

---

71Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡuuYDnGU2Hr

A pause.

71Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpFR1kFJMPO

---

71Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4mAbcScUEz

“Go back… and pretend you belong.”

71Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlb3SOrq2ap

---

71Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgeZVIuDoUq

Another pause.

71Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgc4UxqPzEx

---

71Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNa0OhbpkGz

“Or come with us…”

71Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6V1P2ZwMte

---

71Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡATwQjZZZBb

The door shook violently.

71Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVObnPQs16f

---

71Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcEfmwjB54x

“…and break the system completely.”

71Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxWZYFGuzOG

---

71Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡoF0b56l1gX

Silence.

71Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhHPCM16dch

---

71Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVyYfjX5EkT

Liyana’s heart raced.

71Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡum0mK1SZGd

---

71Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7UhJd0ReH4

This was it.

71Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXeZBxCp1Wb

---

71Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡB85cP09zHw

No more confusion.

71Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡU0qfteNtC1

No more questions.

71Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡW156kodvPq

---

71Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVIA5ReSaEj

A decision.

71Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnS5Hg05fKB

---

71Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5JEVn1ZX1v

She looked at them.

71Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJ9261h06ts

---

71Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡyku7RwxGjx

At people who had been erased.

71Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6Wp04hdD62

---

71Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdvDBGz4vKu

Forgotten.

71Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡiceIK1jQ1V

---

71Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKQirYF4BzL

Hidden.

71Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡarImbffRug

---

71Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡA4IjHmrDgu

Then—

71Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡH1WtNbTecx

she looked at the door.

71Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡS3PUvm0FyD

---

71Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHKfQ2c0wjK

At the system trying to control everything.

71Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBfVGh6xUyF

---

71Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfhILYy2vtd

Her fear didn’t disappear.

71Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmAW5uzYT3J

---

71Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKk9NyyUinw

But something else grew stronger.

71Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqpppFnFonf

---

71Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjVbI5jLVew

Determination.

71Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdsoPqGtVwo

---

71Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMnx7ykFKig

“I’m done hiding,” she said.

71Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCEjfvZ9zqD

---

71Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0iCeok0v4s

The girl smiled.

71Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡM30LYsYsHj

---

71Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlRZnx7ibSF

“Good.”

71Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡel8mdAfB8A

---

71Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAit6L3opc3

The door burst open.

71Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlyO7JyYUt9

---

71Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4IUaaIfrqX

Blinding light flooded in.

71Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡi0uIVpWulU

---

71Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIkzVdO67Od

Figures in silver coats rushed forward.

71Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡW7mFqcZ25l

---

71Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡk18QvQeKQ3

“STOP!”

71Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgKv5245MRQ

---

71Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡm7uDuuQrED

Too late.

71Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjdS5cCfdIu

---

71Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡas8aAVHfSK

The lights flickered.

71Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSpCbr7fVcQ

---

71Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtZMRB3nc1F

The shadows moved.

71Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ07LU9lPZvb

---

71Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTtkmoULuA7

And in the chaos—

71Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2HpdHvKZMJ

they disappeared.

71Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwRqRYfBoZ6

---

71Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡv5QtyDemxY

Not running.

71Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡICRnmmoZK6

---

71Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZOhYD3iesX

Not escaping.

71Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6zK1H2eW1y

---

71Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYRhtvTlKyl

Vanishing.

71Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡildQ6sziA4

---

71Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlDllaM99H2

Right in front of the system itself.

71Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPUs5qW8r3s

---

71Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhrRDlgAp8X

And this time—

71Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQlVvqYyk3W

they weren’t alone anymore.71Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOCIhEnS1mM
