The holographic sky of the Anakt Garden compound was oddly serene compared to the eerie silence. It's been three days since Hyun Woo's death. You have taken the news roughly, initially not wanting to believe it, as any ignorantly blissful child would have.

Since then, you've grown callous to the duo of Hyuna and Luka. The former was suppressing the event and continuing on like Luka, of all people, hasn't killed her brother. While the latter is still as clingy as ever, if a little nonverbal at most. It was a shock to your system, and you were understandably upset at them. Giving them the cold shoulder as of late, though it doesn't seem to affect Luka.

You were deep in your own head with racing thoughts and bitter reminders, but the snapping of a stray twig caught you. There should be no one here other than yourself, so as you slowly turned, you felt your heart in your throat. A feeling of dread overtaking you. Settling into a deep pit in your chest as you come face to face with a familiar silhouette.

One you didn't think you would be able to see again.

Hyun Woo's figure was scuffled and slightly blood, prominently dripping from his head down to his face. A few sticky blotches of red gluing his hair together. His blank, lifeless gaze is what petrified you. Nearly causing you to shrink away in a mixture of nausea and fear.

He approached slowly, at a snail's pace. Walking out from the shadows of the artificial trees and in better range of your sight. His steps were unhurried as he closed in on you. Shortly stopping in front of you. The ghostly boy's presence interfered with the electronics of the compound, causing the sky to start blinking between static and the starry-night sky. Hyun Woo was unbelievably warm as well, as if he wasn't deathly cold when they had to pry you from his body.
