Starry Worlds ~OtherSide~ [I]

He yawned lightly while stretching his shoulder as he walked around the school campus. Somehow, Aozora felt his tiredness still didn’t fade away yet since he just arrived to his world yesterday and not only that, it’s because of his new room. Yes, his room inside the girl’s dorm. He always heard that female is a clean creature but after seeing yesterday… he still doubt that theory. Nevertheless, not every girls like that, right? But one thing he could say are; his room which was full of dust, spider-webs and uninvited creatures are inside that room after the previous owner just left the room only a month ago. What a clean previous owner of the room had…
Scratching his head, he recalled the sound of the girls screaming of terror last night still inside his mind; the scream when something small, black called cockroaches, flying out from the room. So, in the end everyone who is brave enough helped Aozora clean his new room including Anya; his new friend. For today, Anya won’t be around him because she has something to do inside the library. Oh, yeah. New information, Mutsuki Anya is a librarian. Perhaps she needs to do some cleaning for this new semester.
Anyhow, he shouldn’t disturb her doing her works. He can manage and get used around this academy alone. It’s not like there’s something dangerous going to happen to him, right? So, he can just walks around, feeling the wind gently blo—
“Ah! Sorry!” a voice apologized after the owner just bumped to Aozora.
Blinking, Aozora looked down to the smaller boy who has a scar at his left cheek and carries a guitar or maybe a violin case behind him. “Nah, it’s alright. I didn’t notice you are in front of me. Plus, it’s didn’t hurt at all. Feels like a small pebbles thrown toward me.”
Suddenly, the smaller male smiled brightly at Aozora. “Are you trying to be sarcastic toward me?” he said or more correctly like a retort to a sarcastic person. “Unfortunately, time is gold. So, I hope we will meet again and there’s something interesting behind this building. I advise you to go there~” he continued being talkative and said his final words before running to the opposite of Aozora. “You are fated to see ‘that person’.”
“Wha—?”
“NATSU!! COME BACK HERE!!”
A sudden shout can be heard in front of Aozora, successfully snapping Aorazo from looking at the male, gakuran-uniform student. “Tha—tha—THAT! NEKO!” a young female student shouted as she panted heavily, tired of chasing the previous male student named Natsu. Stopping her running, she tried to catch her breath before meeting her navy-blue eyes with Aozora’s pure-blue orbs while still panting. She took off her glasses, wiped her sweats with her sleeve before wearing the glasses back, looking directly at Aozora with crossed hand.
While that, Aozora just stared at her, waiting for her action. He still didn’t register anything about the chibi-student and now, there’s a nerd-student looking or analysing him right now. It’s kind of too much weird thing dropped on him in such a short time. Without warning, the female student chuckled before passing through Aozora without a single word except for three words before she’s slowly disappears from his sight.
For a few minutes, Aozora remained in the same position. He tried his best to register what just happened to him. He just meets this chibi-student who told him to go behind this building and then, the nerd-student or like a pervert student who looking at him from top to bottom, chuckling before disappearing without any explanations. Who are those students? Is this means there’s something going to happen to him soon? Who is ‘this person’ that chibi-student mentioned?
“Tch. So much for having a normal school’s life…” He mumbled as he snapped from his thought, ignoring the previous incidents. When he took his steps, he didn’t realize his feet are taking him behind the building where the chibi-student just told him. Only after a few minutes later, he noticed it which made him stopped him movement completely. Staring down at his feet, he realized his heart is filled with curiosity although he knows something is going to happen soon that will effects his life. This means… after being in that ‘merciless world’, he still will be in abnormal life no matter where he goes… even if he just barely survived that world.
Following his instinct, he just goes on with the flow and be on his guard if there will be something dangerous going to happen soon. A mysterious grin curved on his lips before turning to the right corner, calmly and cautiously. Then, something caught his sight. Swiftly, he snatched it before saw countless of them flying in the sky.
He knows what those things are.
Surely, everyone will feel lucky if they saw this scenery.
It is one of the most beautiful scenery in the four seasons.
Slowly, he extended his hands, looking at the pink sakura petals flying away from his palm. Aozora suddenly feels like an idiot because he was thinking abnormal things will happen in this peacefully academy. Maybe this is what the chibi-student wanted to show him but he was being chased by that female student. There’s nobody around this area, meaning only few peoples know about this place. Now, he doesn’t feel a regret at all coming to this school because the previous thought just a useless action to do.
Step by step, he proceeds forward while feeling the wind breeze running through him; the warm and gently breeze, also the beautiful sakura petals flying around him. In the same time, he tried to clear his mind and reminiscences of the things happened in his life before reaching ArCiel and after reaching here. He already meets his first new friend named Anya and had a room. Though it’s in female dorm, he doesn’t mind. After that, he encounter the left scarred cheek chibi student and—
Once again, without warning, something just covered his face. He was startled and that is the truth. Quickly, he grabbed the thing that covered his face which is just a piece of paper written something on it.
[The Spring time is a sign of an ending and a new journey has begun. The first recycle of life. You will say goodbye to the one who left and hello to the new peoples you’ve meet. After parting, a new meeting will come to your life soon. It is always the recycle of life, living under the sky. It is a recy
The Su ]
The Su ]
Right after he finished the first paragraph, the paper is snatched by a student. Behind the piece of the paper is a student with along sienna hair that hides the orbs. The student looked like a female student but has a tomboyish figure because she is wearing the Special Student Uniform. She looked cute especially when she is blushing right now. Perhaps Aozora just read something that made her shy and doesn’t often showing to everyone else. The female student just stared at him while trying to hide her blushing with her black file which made Aozora thinks she is just like a lost kitten begging to pick it up.
“Di—did you just read i-it? Please… don’t tell anyone I wrote this…” she said nervously.
Without noticing, Aozora patted her head, whispering, “Okay, I won’t tell it to another soul. It’s a secret between us.” Then he gave his most rare smile. The smile that never been curved on his lips for such a long time now. Aozora also kind of confused on why he said such a nice words to the student. It’s like the words are just willingly to comw out from him mouth.
“The-Then, it’s a promise.”
“Alright.” He answered shortly before he saw it.
As the file slowly going down,
She looked up to him and closes her eyes,
Then, the female student smiled beautifully.
It is a sincere smile from the bottom of her heart.
It is a smile can make people falls in love in first sight.
It is a smile he once saw before.
…a smile he once saw before?
Suddenly, a sharp pain appeared in his head. He placed both of his hands on his dark-blue hair, trying his best to endure the pain. However, the pain was too much for him which made him falls down on the grassy ground with the female student panicked of the sudden event. He tried to tell her he’s fine but another sharp pain can be felt once again as a few images came to him.
…An image of a girl looking at him with full of curiosity.
…An image of the same girl enjoying herself with him.
…An image of the girl crying.
…An image of the girl smiling innocently.
…And an image of a pinky-swear.
After the final imaged came to him, he found himself panting hardly, begging for air. He tried to stay conscious but his mind already felt blurry. Before his consciousness faded away, he wanted to memorize at the female student who made him recall his distance memories; the true intentions of coming to this academy, in search of the memories before he went to that merciless world. He thought he will never recall in but here, in the ArCiel Academy, he may recall it… The memories he is searching for. He really wanted those memories but it was too late. He couldn’t see her face. He grabbed her hand, wanting her to stay by his side. Nevertheless, is it a useless action?
The female student’s panicked face suddenly changed into a calm face and then, she curved a smirk on her lips. Her behaviour confuses Aozora, he thought he is currently seeing another person. And then, he saw it. The person’s eyes are crimson coloured instead of innocent orbs. Leaning closer to him, the person whispered something at his ear but he couldn’t hear it clearly.
'Me—es—er—u—ka –Y—u wi—d—e ne—year.'
"W-Wha?"
'Death Shall Fall Upon You Next Year.'

Aozora snapped out as he sat up and placed his hands at his temple. “What… was that?” he mumbled while panting hardly, trying to catch his breath. His face turned gloomy when he remembered the only five last words that he could heard. What is the meaning of those words? Who is that crimson eyed person? And—“Where is she?!” Aozora asked in loud tone. He looked around, founding himself on his own bed and his feet still covered by his blanket and he is still wearing his pyjama. “What is happening here?” he questioned himself.
A soft knocking sound can be heard outside his room. “AozoraKun, we going to be late for classes! It’s your first day~!” Anya called him with gentle tone.
“Anya?” he murmured her name and burst his door opens to see the silver haired female student.
With a question mark on her head, she asked, “What is it, AozoraKun? And why are you still in your pyjama?” Smiling, she giggled lightly when saw Aozora in confusing face like hers a few seconds ago. “You must be tired. Oh, and I see your room already clean. Well, your yesterday’s hard works paid off!”
“What do you mean? …Yesterday’s hard work? Didn’t I …collapse yesterday?”
Blinking, Anya titled her head with another question mark on her head. “Sorry, I don’t understand. Yesterday you didn’t come out from your room at all after cleaning your room. You said you going to doze off. Plus, you never collapsed yesterday. I would be panicking right now if you do.” she said as she recalls her memories of what happened on the day before today.
Now, it’s Aozora’s time to be blinking as he scratches his messy dark-blue lightly. He did doze off after cleaning his room yesterday but he woke up in the evening to take some walks around the campus. So, it didn’t happen? …But the scenery of the sakura still clear in his mind. He still remembered clearly he meets these two peoples and then, he meets this girl who has a connection to his forgotten memories. ‘Is it… just a dream? …An illusion?’ he thought as he looked down. Somewhat, he is glad because it means the crimson person said that he will die next year isn’t true. It’s just a dream. However, he still upset because he thought he could finally find a clue toward his missing memories. He has already given up on it and now… he thinks he should continue on looking for it starting from his first steps to this academy.
“Anyway, hurry up, AozoraKun! You’ll be late for your first class!” Anya reminded him. With that, Aozora closes his door and get ready for his first day and his first class although his mind is still confuses about the dreams he just had.
In front of the door of Aozora’s room, Anya hummed a song while waiting for her new friend to get ready. He is a guy so; it shouldn’t take long for him to get ready, right? While that, nobody noticed they are being watched by one of the person he meets in his so-called dreams. “It’s such an unfortunate you believe yesterday was only illusions.” She mumbled silently before smiling mischievously. “No matter~” he uttered before replay her words which she whispered to him yesterday by throwing away ‘will’ (verb) and adding one word.
“It has finally begun.”
