Who is the one you see now?

Who is the one you seek?

(What? What is this?) I think to myself.

Are they really different?

Will they save you when things look bleak?

Time is but an illusion.

For friends are always here.

Forget not those you've trusted.

To all, memories are so dear.

"That sound!?" I hear Selot say in astonishment.

With each passing word, my body feels lighter. My breathing becomes slightly easier as well. Is this...rhime? Whatever it is, I've never heard this rhythm before.

The world is but an illusion,

A dream that we all take part.

But no matter how you see me,

You're real to me in my heart.

"Stop it! Stop playing that song!"

Selot begins to writhe in agony.

Unknown to me, he is beginning to remember things, one after another. A beautiful girl smiling at him, just to be carried away unconscious amidst a sea of flames. The bodies of children riddling the premises of a burning orphanage. A young girl, lifeless in his arms.

"STOP THAT AT ONCE!!!" he yells, slowly raising his sword.

"Desist!" I hear someone else yell.

At that moment, ANOTHER Selot rushes towards this one and knocks him out of the way.

(What in the!?)

I rush towards the alleyway where the two Selots went. They are nowhere to be found.

"What's going on?" I say out loud, waiting for an answer from the voice.

I get no response.

What's going on here?
