A Sad Sad Day Indeed

[Chaos]

Chaos lay in the hospital bed, staring up at the ceiling. Heer eyes were slightly opened, yet she didn't appear to be awake.

Ugh, where am I? How did I get here?

To tell the truth, all Chaos remembered just before collasping was being in The World. But what had happened in There? Was she on the inside or the outside?

Am I dreaming?

She heard the beeb beeb beeb of the michinery.

No...(voice echoing 'no') I'm not dreaming...

[Akida System]

"No... You are not dreaming... You're very sad..." Akida's voice rang out.

She wasn't in the Real World but she had found some other way to reach it.

"...thread... Hanging by a single thread..."

[Chaos]

"Thread?... I.. I don't understand. Why am I here? Is this all a dream? Where am I?" Chaos asked, speaking randomly.

She couldn't understand let alone think properly. All she knew was that she didn't understand herself.
