«Heartseed» had transported him here, to the place it referred to as the Isolation Zone. He clutched his head, fighting the heat and pain. Then a sharp, burning pain rose up the back of his skull, almost like an electric shock. How was such a thing possible, when he was apparently sprawled out on the athletic field for some indeterminate amount of time? And for another thing, why was he sprawled out on the athletic field? What was he doing here.?

Next he checked his back, then his legs, but couldn’t find any dirt. After lying facedown on the ground, surely his clothes were filthy-Īnd yet his overcoat remained perfectly spotless. though it still felt a bit surreal to be on campus at night.Ī sudden realization occurred to him, and he started to brush himself off. Outside the school gates, everything appeared to be perfectly normal. Then he turned and looked over his shoulder. Through the windows, he could see lights on in several of the classrooms. Yaegashi Taichi was standing in front of Yamaboshi High School in the middle of the night, looking up at the main building from the athletic field.

Using both hands, he pushed himself up onto his knees, then sprang to his feet. He could feel something hard and immovable, uneven and gritty, pressed against his hands, his arms, his legs, his cheek. It was dark, and cold, and his eyes wouldn’t focus. His mind was fuzzy, and he couldn’t think straight. Everything felt off in a deeply unpleasant way-as though his whole body was melted into a viscous liquid and then flushed down the drain.

The first thing he felt was intense disgust. This is not the real world-but it’s still a world in its own right.
