7 Chapter 7

Life is a number of lines that intertwine together, forming many networks ...

Everyone was busy eating food and side chatting ... But I was feeling strange all this time ... Something I shouldn't remember

"Or should you?"

I turned after hearing this voice to find that I am now sitting alone. The others went to see if the rain stopped or not, and it was clear that it was kir's idea to leave here alone ..

"Damn that ..." Yu said fretfully, "Wait a minute, what is this?" He added, as he examined the floor on which a stain of bright red substance was on it .. "Isn't that the place where everyone sat to eat ... Was one of them injured?"

I really wished then that one of us was injured..

*******

After 10 minutes have passed at the entrance to the cave

"Oh man, it's really raining! Why don't any of us have the strength of an umbrella?" Ito said despairingly.

"Why don't you try your fire against the water and see who will win as an amusement?" Ki answered him while he was drying his dark strands of hair, because it was raining a little while ago.

"Why did you all leave me there?" yu said while looking at the faces of the other five.

Well .. that- "said Megumi, but then Kir interrupted him and continued," You haven't been yourself for a while so I told them to let you rest a little. "

"Yes, you looked a lot erratic even I noticed this.. even though I hadn't recognized you for a while," said Megumi.

"You also know each other ..?" "Actually the three of us also know each other," Yuno asked.

"Yes, we are all in the same high school ... and I happened to catch someone setting up a riot with a lighter without gasoline, and I saw another shiver from the scene, so I felt that he also knew something."

"But I was defending my right then I wasn't rioting!" Eto'o protested, angry.

"new information.. If we gathered the three weapons together, we would transfer to this place .." Yu said this phrase in a loud voice, but no one answered him. Is it because the rain had dried up at that time so this caught their attention, or because there were many possibilities that took place in their minds and threw it within A deep sense of fear? ...

***

The six came out of the cave and were assigned a different task to each two of them so that they could secure their daily sustenance and life in this new place where danger enveloped them from every side.

Yu was accompanying Kir on a mission to gather some wood in the relatively small and sprawling forest near the cave's front entrance.

"kir .. There is a dangerous person or people here," yu said anxiously as h turned around in order to expel the specter of anxiety ... or to expel someone h felt was following him.

"… What made you think of this? " Kir asked, picking up a few woods from the ground near a tree whose branches spread high in the sky.

"I found blood, Kir! .. It was on the floor of the cave .. This means that there was someone from them who had at least a few drops and we do not know what their source was." yu said with all his feelings of suspicion, anxiety, confusion and fear.

"You mean," us ", dear" Kir said with the same disinterest.

"You mean that one of us had hunted an animal or something similar, right?" I said, trying to explain his vague phrases.

"Yu .. I don't understand what really happened to you or what was wrong with you .. I tried to ignore this topic for a long time, but you really changed ... How and why did this happen to you ... Are they the ones who did this to you? Tell me ??!"kir said while raising his voice a little Then he was distracted and tense as he was sweating profusely and was holding my shoulder so tight that I felt that he was going to snatch it out of place.

"I don't understand ..?" I asked.

"I don't really know what your intentions are…" "The only reason why I keep this... is because I trust you .. I hope you know that at least." When Kir ended the dialogue with this sentence, he refused to talk about this topic again and a lot of things happened That made me can't talk about it ...

"Many, many, many and many ........"

When we returned to the cave again, the atmosphere was different from usual, as it was a dark atmosphere hanging over the place and the reason was ~

Where is Ito? Yuno asked cautiously.

"He was supposed to be Megumi's partner ... but Megumi is back and he is not," Ki said.

"He told me he wanted to go exploring the place and insisted that since he had this lighter he would be fine ... You saw me leaving him and joining you," Megumi explained.

"I think we should look for him before the sun sets," said Yu , inspecting the large sun disk that was announcing his approaching departure.

"Okay let's go," said Kir , getting up, urging the rest to do so.

****

After an hour of searching and before sunset, a shriek rang out in the place ... it was mixed between panic and panic ... when Yu found that body.

Free from all traces of life

.....

The rest ran to his side, and all of them began to turn their gaze between that hideously burned corpse ... Meat had burnt flesh, but the features of fear and panic that were on his face did not disappear ... and Yu's face, in which panic appeared in a hideous form.

It was the corpse of their companion ... Ito.

"I felt it was him," Kiir said this phrase that no one else but Megumi paid attention to, as the rest of the people were busy trying to banish Yu and really making sure that their companion had left ..

"... interesting," Megumi said with a smile.

This was a very long day that carried many mysteries that were locked inside a box ... but the owner of the key would have preferred not to open it ..
