 [ There is silence for a long, long time--He'd died, on that trip. He should be dead. Yet...here he was, a-ok. Breathing. Alive

The hell... ]

Hey...is everyone who went on that exploration trip okay? I--[ I died. I should be dead. ]--wanted to make sure those skin stealing bastards didn't get their hands on [ sakura ] anyone else, yeah? Just...let me know everything turned out okay. 






Heh...they couldn't keep me down for long, huh? Yeah yeah, I'm too cool to be gone for good. [ He tries to sound boastful. Obnoxious.  Like himself. It sounds forced, though. He's too worried about Sakura and the others.




If they had died...would they come back, too? ]

[The video feed blinks on, focusing on a pair of legs before suddenly being moved to focus on a white-haired girl. She's looking at the note in her hand, frowning.]

'Use this.'

What is this, exactly..?

[Not knowing the video had turned on, she turned the device in her hands, the camera unable to focus on anything for very long before she points it back to herself.]

'This looks like a cell phone. I wonder if it works the same.'

Hello? Is anyone there? Where exactly am I?
