monochrome blankness.

[Side Story 2, Chapter 15: Mother] Meriku, Raiyumi, and Kang go looking for Kasuri. The first place they decided to visit was Kasuri’s room. There was no one in Kasuri’s room at night. (Roza and Akaya were having a lovely date with each other.) But Kang was skeptical, so they decided to investigate the room. They found a diary placed on the table, and it seemed like it was read some hours ago.  The last page with anything written on it, was the one with the most tears. The page was wet from all the tears, but it seemed like it dried out hours ago. [This is probably my last day of writing this page. Kang, Meriku, you were good friends, but I’m sorry I had to leave you… We had a lovely time, I really appreciate that, but it’s about time I wanna stay with my mama…. I hope Naiko’s Chromatia is restored after I leave this place for good.  16 July 2028] Meriku and Kang cried after reading the letter, even though Kang has been with Kasuri for only one day. Kasuri died. That’s about i...

[Side Story 2, Chapter 14: Sweetness is Pain, Bitterness is Bliss] Roza entered the Naiko Apartment with her keycard, and Kasuri’s clothes and belongings. She walked towards Apartment 101, and the landlord asked Roza, “Who are you? I’ve never seen your face in here before.” “I’m Roza Fedorov. Do you know Kasuri Mano?” “The purple-haired girl? What about her?” “...I regret saying this to you, but…” Roza pauses, as she gets sad. “...I can wait. Go ahead when you’re ready.” The landlord is surprisingly patient. “She died.” They both go into a moment of awkward silence, until Roza suddenly bursts out crying. The landlord walked to Roza, and patted her back. “There… Calm down, you’re making a scene here.” Roza slowly stopped crying, and apologized, while some strangers were looking at her. They appear to be the apartment’s residents, and they feel bad for Roza, even though Roza just killed everyone. The thing is, no one knew Roza killed anyone. They were suddenly killed by Roza’s Mega Soul ...

[Side Story 2, Chapter 13: Wintery Day] Kasuri woke up, and stretched herself. She pointed out that the people were gone. Out of panic, she looked outside, and the people were still there, happily eating breakfast outside.  She walked outside, and greeted the squad. "Hello!" Raiyumi smiled, and patted Kasuri. "You woke up late today… We actually beat all of the attackers, and we're just finding the Naiko Chromatia."  "That's great!" Kasuri cheered in happiness. "That's really great, I hope we can restore Naiko, she's the most powerful!" "I wouldn't say she's the most powerful, Aokane is more powerful, she can manipulate space!" Sephine interrupted. "Oh yeah…" Kasuri didn't think of that. She blinked her eyes, and suddenly, everyone in front of her… They were dead? It's like their souls were absorbed. Everyone is dead.  Out of terror, Kasuri started running away, and there was someone grabbing Ka...

[Side Story 2, Chapter 12: Wintery Night] The food truck was eventually a shelter for the entire squad. Here's a memo for who's in this squad (and not the squad in the main story): Kasuri Mano, a purple-haired girl who hates death, alongside her yellow-haired lookalike, Naiko. Meriku Kitsuri, presumably Kasuri's girlfriend, just because Kasuri found her and picked her up. Sephine Pancakes, a famous sorceress of Naiko, who escaped from Reqrania. Ariel, the coolest person in all existence. (If the owner of this character is reading this, sorry, but I am not killing Ariel. The world will lose its coolness. Ariel is the spirit guardian of coolness.) Luca, the owner of the food truck. Derie, a scaredy foreigner who controls the wind. Inazuma, a child raised by someone her age from the Rosewood family. Chris Azalea, dead as fuck. Might come back someday and haunt Kasuri. Yuguwa Tsugo, useless as fuck. He does nothing. Dumb dumb. More dumb than Ariel, but supports Kashor- No, I me...

[Side Story 2, Chapter 11: Vacuum] While sitting around, with nothing to do, Kasuri thought:  "What should I do?" "Chris is dead, but I’m convinced attackers absorb the life energy instead of letting it go, which makes it impossible to revive Chris at the hospital. The attackers are clearly trying to purge the entire population." "Mom wasn’t attacked by those people either, but why wasn’t she able to be revived at the hospital?" Then, she asked Sephine exactly that. “It’s because her life energy was also stolen, and was used to restore someone’s life, illegally.” “How do you know?” “If it isn’t that, then I don’t know what is. Hospitals in Mokkato usually make life energies gravitate towards the hospital, which makes the souls easier to find, but I assume the person was a criminal who died, so to save the criminal’s life, they had to take your mother’s life.” “Really…?” “I don’t know for sure. When we retrieve the Naiko crystal, we’ll go to where your moth...
