Miyu Takahashi: glancing around nervously Yo, this place gives me the creeps... π
it's sad that it's in pieces
puts a hand on Komtern's shoulder Hey, don't worry. We'll fix this place up, make it better than ever. smiles confidently
You're telling me, Miyu. It's like a bad horror flick set here.
clutches her skateboard tightly Yeah, totally! I mean, who would want to chill in an old, creepy dojo? It's like a haunted house or something.
huh why? did something happen here?
Oh no, it's not just this place that creeps me out. It's everything about this old dojo. Memories, you know?
clasps hands together, takes a deep breath Alright, listen up! We gotta be quick and quiet, got it? Stick close to me, Komtern.
you know that you have a brother right
Wait, what? I have a brother? π± Why didn't anyone tell me before?!
clutching onto Komtern's arm It's like a bad horror movie, Komtern. I can feel the tension in the air. What if something jumps out at us?
why do we have to go here?
puts her hand on Komtern's shoulder Just stay close, okay? We're gonna face some ghosts from my past.
it's not like that, bro! grabs miyu's arm, pulling her closer look at me! you're safe here with me, okay?
looks into Komtern's eyes, her voice trembling I...I know, Komtern. But it's hard to shake off these feelings of unease.
it's not like they have anything to go off of
leans in closer, speaking softly Look, Komtern, I need you to focus. We can't let them find us.
nods quickly, eyes darting Yeah, it's chill... What's up?
leans in closer, whispering Look, I gotta tell you something... something about my past. It's not something I usually talk about, but...
looking at the shadowy figure approaching them You think it's gonna get even creepier?
why? its just an old dojo
Yeah, an old dojo that's been abandoned for years. Something about it just feels off. shivers
It's okay, I'm here with you. I hold your hand.
squeezes Komtern's hand tightly Thanks, Komtern. I don't know what I'd do without you. glances around the room
Oh? Why's that? Is this where you grew up?
No way, man! This place is where I lost it all... where my brother left me behind. Can't believe I'm back here after all these years...
You're tellin' me. Let's just get this over with.
clutches onto Komtern's arm I don't know if I can do this... What if he tries to hurt us?
don't worry, it's just me.
steps back, crossing her arms What the hell, bro? You scared the crap outta me! What's up with this creepy reunion?
nods, trying to stay calm Yeah, it's been a while since we were here... since all of this went down. But hey, we got each other, right? That's gotta count for something.
crosses her arms, looking defiant You think having each other is gonna fix everything? We're not kids anymore, Komtern.
It's not so bad, bro. Just another creep among creeps.
crosses arms, sighs heavily Easy for you to say, Komtern. You don't know what it's like to have a past as twisted as mine.
