Noir, Lidya, and Iris' footsteps quickly followed, there was a crash behind them but they ignored the situation and conditions behind them. The place they used to rest had been covered with smoke.

Running continuously didn't seem to save the three of them from the smoke. Dense black smoke which if humans are exposed to the smoke, it makes the human visibility almost 0 meters. The smoke was rapidly approaching them, it suffocating the three of them.

"cough cough cough." Iris has trouble breathing until she coughs. Iris then couldn't maintain her position and she fell and was supported by her hands and feet, Noir who heard the sound of Iris falling amidst the roar, immediately grabbed the hands of her two friends. And pulled Lidya who was already squatting.

“PRONE” shouted Noir.

It was the best thing to do at this point because the smoke had covered their visibility and if they ran, the gusts of the gusts of wind of smoke would make them fall even harder.

Fortunately, the water in the river wasn't affected much by the waves of black smoke, so Noir and his friends didn't worry about anything other than the black smoke… and avoided collisions with rocks or vegetation that might be in front of them.

"Hey, Noir. Is this safe?” shouted Lidya who sounded faint.

"I don't know, but there is no other choice, we must join hands so that we are not too far apart and don't hit the rocks that may be dangerous up ahead."

The three of them held hands with Noir at the center of them. Iris and Lidya in one of their hands are holding on to Noir and one of them is holding on to the river rocks.

The black smoke became stronger and stronger as the current made the rock that Iris was holding, fly off the ground. And because of that, the grip of the iris with Noir was released and she was swayed by this black smoke.

The impact of Iris being carried away by the wind made Noir lose his place, and was carried away by the current of smoke. Before he let go of the handle with Lidya.

“Stay in the place,Lid.”

After Noir was also carried away by the current, Lidya, who was hugging the rock that looked solid, covered her face so she wouldn't get hit by small rocks or sand that was carried away by the black smoke.

After a while, the current of black smoke subsided. Lidya raised her head to see the condition of her two friends who didn't know where they were.

If you spot this story on Amazon, know that it has been stolen. Report the violation.

Then she stood up and cleaned the clothes she was wearing. Dirty from the soil.

Speaking of which, about the black smoke earlier, as soon as it subsided, it completely disappeared from the ground so that a normal person's visibility would return to normal.

“Iris, Noir, where are you? are you all right?” while looking for the whereabouts of her two friends, Lidya asked.

“umm… I guess so, but can you guys help me?” Said Iris who was hit by a fairly small tree branch not far from Lidya.

Meanwhile, Noir, who had recovered from yesterday's bear wound, sat leaning against a fairly large river rock.

After removing the branch that fell on Iris, then Iris and herself went to see Noir who looked tired.

"This world is very dangerous." Noir said.

Having previously been injured by a horned bear, now he was blown away by the smoke.

"Are we going to be okay?" Iris asked.

The two of them remained silent because they did not know what danger lay ahead.

The condition of the three of them was not bad compared to what was around their area.

The clothes they were wearing were not badly torn, but only torn by the debris carried by the black smoke that they had encountered earlier.

The bag that Lidya was holding was also undamaged and when she checked its contents. The HP that is in it has no problems. It's just that the time on the cellphone clock, has been damaged from the start.

The trees that were previously standing firmly have now fallen down as if they had been hit by a terrible flash flood. However, what swept through the trees was black smoke, not water. In fact, the river beside the three of them did not experience any tides, and tended to flow calmly.

Even though the current was calm, it seemed that the only thing that was not affected was the water. Fish-like aquatic biota, grass that lived underwater that Noir had never seen before, floated in the river.

Not only aquatic biota are helpless, but there are birds that fall from the sky, squirrels lying on the rocks at the edge of the forest. Many grasshoppers gathered and died from the brunt of the waves of thick black smoke.

When they looked around. Lidya's gaze saw something that looked different from its surroundings.

"Hey what's that?"

Noir and Lidya looked at the area that Lidya pointed to.

The three of them moved simultaneously towards that thing. And found that it was the same powerbank as the one in Lidya's gift.

Seeing that, Iris became shocked, and thought that all the objects in the world transfer area, would be sent in the same world but in different places.

"So, there's a possibility that our bikes are in this world right?"

"Yeah, you're right."

After taking the powerbank. They continued on their way, avoiding areas covered by fallen branches from the previous black smoke.

Suddenly…..
