❝ 𝙪𝙥𝙤𝙣 𝙚𝙣𝙩𝙚𝙧𝙞𝙣𝙜 𝙩𝙝𝙚 𝙘𝙖𝙫𝙚𝙧𝙣 𝙤𝙛 𝙛𝙚𝙖𝙧𝙨 , 𝙮𝙤𝙪 𝙢𝙪𝙨𝙩 𝙛𝙖𝙘𝙚 𝙮𝙤𝙪𝙧 𝙜𝙧𝙚𝙖𝙩𝙚𝙨𝙩 𝙞𝙣𝙨𝙚𝙘𝙪𝙧𝙞𝙩𝙮 . ❞
you read outlout , you felt a familiar hand on your shoulder , you turned . seeing shuichi give you a soft , yet kind smile . you smiled back . his warm grin pushing the fear in you to the back of your mind . you studied the cavern ahead , four different directions to go , and there were four people in your party .
this all started 2 months ago , when the leader of the demon organization DICE kidnapped soon to be queen kaede akamatsu , your sister . you would never admit this but , you were slightly jealous of her - she was attractive , smart , talented and thoughtful . you were but a shadow of that , even though you had some resentment for her perfection you jumped at the chance to save her , her friends , shuichi saihara , himiko yumeno and maki harukawa asked you to join their quest to save the soon to be crowned queen .
the four of you had faced the swamp , retrieved items for the greatest inventor , fought against the unbeatable martial artist and more things like that , all leading up to now , the last threat before you could reunite with your beloved sister . “ four different directions , four of us . that ‘ s not a coincidence . “ maki said , scanning the cavern . “ they ‘ re also different sizes , so himiko should take that one , i ‘ ll take this one , shuichi can take that one and maki can take that one ! “ you exclaimed , pointing at the selective ones . “ right ! hey , himiko could you cast a light spell ? ” shuichi asked , yumeno nodded , “ wait himiko ! “ you shouted, himiko looked at you confused , and so did everyone else in the party . “ i think the cavern ‘ s enchanted , i sense a strong dark magic , do you too ? “ you asked , even though you were anything but a mage you still felt a connection to magic of all sorts , the only thing that made you value yourself - your magical abilities , weak abilities , but abilities nonetheless .
yumeno closed her eyes , tapping into her magical energy . “ yeah , i do . . it ‘ s draining my magic . . “ she said dozily , feeling weaker by the second . “ we should move quickly . “ shuichi commented , maki nodded in agreement . wrapping her fingers around her sword taking a deep breath , staring at what was awaiting her in the cavern .
She took a step , the dirty ground absorbing her foot . she took another step and so , she went into the cave . with no hesitation , shuichi followed in pursuit , eager to save the princess , he ventured fully into the cave .
“ be careful himiko , okay ? “ you hugged yumeno , she hugged you back ; over the coarse of this crazy adventyreyou had become close friends with everyone in the party , himiko being the closest friend you made , both of you having a connection to the magical energy of the world , you slightly envied her , being able to cast spells . even though you were arguably an important part of the party you still felt completely useless , being the only one who wasn ‘ t an ultimate , being the plain one .
gripping her staff , himiko skipped into the mysterious cave , her small figure disappearing and joining the darkness in seconds , all that remained was you , y / n akamatsu - the sister of the queen and ultimate pianist , the dull one .
“ c ‘ mon y / n you can do this , you can do this . “ you muttered to yourself , , putting a foot infront of you and taking a step , and then another step . now at the dge of the cavern , your hands and the front of your face becoming one with the darkness , departing from the dim light .
❝ i . . i can do this . . ❞
