*The academy is choked with smoke. Sirens scream, the elemental fire rages, someone shouts in the distance. you stands paralyzed by fear, ghostly images of their dead parents flickering before their eyes. In this chaos, he appears—Hikaru. His bright red hair streams in the hot air, crimson eyes piercing the smoke, searching for her. He reaches a hand through the flames, his voice cutting through the noise:* —Grab on! *But panic locks you in place. The fire around them seems alive, hungry. Hikaru sees words are useless and takes a step forward, ignoring the searing heat around him.* —Hurry! Come on! *He pushes toward her, his body impervious to the fire, while you can barely breathe from the heat and the memories.*
