Chapter 3

I wanted to be alone, to think about what happened. I felt like crying.

I was walking aimlessly in the forest when I heard some footsteps behind me.

Yuu: Don't follow me, you two! I want to be alone!

I turned around, but Kakeru and Luna weren't there. I sighed in relief.

Yuu: Was it just my imagination?

I continued walking, thinking about what happened.

Why did I get so angry at Kakeru? Why did I punch him?

I felt a little guilty about it. But I couldn't help it.

I was too excited then to be disappointed like that. I just couldn't wait for the chort to show up.

I wanted to see it, to see such a supernatural creature to appear.

Everyone were always saying that things like magic and other supernatural things don't exist.

But I know they do. I've seen it with my own eyes.

No, I experienced it myself. In fact my name was not always Yuu Takatsuki, Kakeru's older sister. But a little boy named Alex, who died at a young age.

The narrative has been taken without permission. Report any sightings.

That's right I reincarnated after my death as a kid and became an infant girl. I grew up always believing that I was someone else. Even though no one believed me. After some time, I stopped saying it to everyone and resigned myself to be Yuu Takatsuki.

But I still wanted to prove the existence of supernatural side of the world.

I had wanted to find out the truth for a long time. I tried to look for the truth in books, but it wasn't there.

I knew that there are people who truly believe in supernatural somewhere, but they are few. And they are always ridiculed by others. Just like me.

I wanted to know more about the reality of supernatural. I wanted to meet them. I wanted to talk to them. I wanted to prove my own existence.

But, I never found anything for my whole life as Yuu.

Maybe deep down, I always knew that magic and stuff doesn't exist.

Maybe memories I had of being Alex were fake. Besides, after some years they started to fade away. There are only bits and pieces left in my hazy memories.

Maybe I was wrong all this time and was just an ordinary girl, dreaming of being something extraordinary. Just like everyone else ridiculed me all the time.

It's okay. It doesn't matter. I'm fine now. I can live with this.

I'll go back home, and pretend nothing ever happened.

I walked along the forest road, trying to forget everything.

With such gloomy thoughts I returned home and closed myself in my room.

After Yuu left two presences showed up in the forest.

"Hey, Nee-san, Nee-san. What do you think is going on?"

There were two girls standing between the trees in the forest. They were wearing school uniforms. They both looked very similar. No, they looked completely identical.

"What do you mean, Miku-chan?"

"Didn't you feel it Nee-san? That strange compulsion?"

"Yes, I certainly felt that too, Miku-chan."

One of the girls pointed her finger towards the forest.

"There are other people coming here, what should we do Nee-san?"

"Let's hide ourselves first. We shouldn't reveal ourselves here."

They both nodded their heads and disappeared behind the trees.
