Chapter 8:The Space Between them

The world didn’t change.

77Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAn2OKUP3l2

---

77Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡU36yhcOTsI

It… shifted.

77Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4L9sQBXZcH

---

77Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlSjaxH3tQy

One moment—

77Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYhDDYXFcRs

the room was filled with blinding light.

77Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7Q6TZnR45S

---

77Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgRVnGqzxiv

The next—

77Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEAoG4E3A6E

everything was silent again.

77Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡeQ9UgcN4EY

---

77Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUunykdeemf

But different.

77Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡr0VpjM6fAq

---

77Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIxIRrm0YEY

Liyana opened her eyes slowly.

77Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8WYdez1rHK

---

77Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡG3Bxc82KT5

She wasn’t in the chamber anymore.

77Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvpEl9sgIfv

---

77Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxvk8vHiXUK

The space around her felt… unreal.

77Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDYvUFGWM1f

---

77Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ10zKUfBGHw

The walls weren’t solid.

77Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZxRI5or6Yb

They flickered.

77Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZe1KDGP2s7

Like they weren’t fully there.

77Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5VJA3ak2sP

---

77Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5hV1gE1mFY

“What is this place…?” she whispered.

77Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrcyTwF0Lm7

---

77Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzggVXWdKFH

“The space between.”

77Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8IxMDvK9I2

---

77Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFFU6O6f66K

She turned.

77Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnfYE76ZPPU

The girl stood beside her.

77Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpjGigIYANQ

---

77Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgE8jU9zN4k

“Between what?” Liyana asked.

77Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡoYgmvqlGnf

---

77Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHzsbnmutHS

“The system… and what it tries to hide.”

77Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡuF90rB0yRG

---

77Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhF43FhvIK0

Liyana looked around.

77Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnUVBigxD45

---

77Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3PvQ7RuvLK

Shadows moved along the edges.

77Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡp7wp8Pv262

---

77Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ30eA5DPQYl

Not people.

77Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfZzNSPxPaQ

Not exactly.

77Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdpNYQiKCtS

---

77Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWHv5zv7tyK

Memories.

77Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOLlqNjkpbq

Fragments.

77Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMTd4YJOTf7

---

77Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGa2JZ8agOr

Students.

77Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0O1tY61b0h

Voices.

77Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSLE4uEHfyt

Moments frozen in time.

77Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡodOG4Y7cQv

---

77Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡoQ64pGYR6O

“These are the ones who were erased,” the girl said softly.

77Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHeX2cJaEF2

---

77Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0PZXiskRHL

Liyana’s chest tightened.

77Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡK8ybEv9rVh

---

77Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIL1uc5k1R9

“They’re still here…” she whispered.

77Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqlMDlrtzyG

---

77Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7FoHkXmdQS

“Not fully,” another voice replied.

77Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrtJlyKmnRD

“But enough.”

77Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCGtyFl3iJT

---

77Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvdqXmLfjks

The ground beneath them shimmered.

77Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwonoiToFNZ

---

77Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8i44l4BF2X

Like it couldn’t decide if it existed.

77Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡX6q8SYmwr6

---

77Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwXxVie5JSa

Liyana took a step—

77Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIS5OKyI0dk

and the space reacted.

77Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDXIIG8OlwX

---

77Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6RoPBPGq1Z

A ripple spread outward.

77Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJTLIw1owkL

---

77Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2HE0ZxZucQ

The others noticed.

77Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡuufKn9yJtT

---

77Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡexqmfdBBU1

“You feel it, don’t you?” the girl said.

77Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsP4Jzstfxd

---

77Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnsqPCHWrXa

Liyana looked at her.

77Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4hJbfvZvrA

---

77Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡY48PDu6lLG

“Feel what?”

77Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡO1DwfrJl9G

---

77Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZMuNfMzDls

“The system.”

77Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfOG8W5MhzN

---

77Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZ8pLYS7OYt

Silence.

77Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡN1W96UZhjY

---

77Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡi70eUYoyS4

“It’s not just around us,” she continued.

77Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUOY6Q8eDyD

“It’s connected to us.”

77Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKrwtaAf7Zi

---

77Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLVQ9G8DgyX

Liyana frowned.

77Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡX7TujFMBw2

---

77Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjNTNyYegpv

“I don’t understand.”

77Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡR7pHSguPeJ

---

77Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡoV3ZYILzDt

The girl stepped closer.

77Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrN2AWN32Pj

---

77Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTqxqXdIj9z

“That’s why you’re different.”

77Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRLkHlq8LEd

---

77Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0trVrigzmo

A pause.

77Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡx9M8rnQBbi

---

77Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGsVMJNEoSM

“You’re not just outside the system…”

77Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTNgHoFgzuS

---

77Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6goNqJjqKC

Her voice lowered.

77Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmt1K32OBcz

---

77Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqXEtya7pO5

“…you affect it.”

77Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ34cfOsPJH4

---

77Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4ZYmFV9Ne6

Liyana’s heart skipped.

77Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡV9pxZ7jqpg

---

77Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDIwUw1As6e

“That’s not possible.”

77Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡP7WKCycMlT

---

77Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1OkcFxFJPK

“Then explain what happened to the Emblem,” the girl said.

77Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCNvO0UZDzD

---

77Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjAimgpD0pa

Liyana had no answer.

77Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9eQ6lE75LW

---

77Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPAtX8MKjF9

Because deep down—

77Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqlqX26HKQm

she knew it was true.

77Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhY76McaJMg

---

77Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRBC2Bl8Hdo

Suddenly—

77Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYo5QrVAmV4

the space trembled.

77Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIVsNYvyXUp

---

77Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrVnDT8ZRKN

Harder than before.

77Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqwhgHkZM2t

---

77Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxebCigpj3Y

A loud distortion echoed everywhere.

77Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡm4N3SCRBv3

---

77Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡidzAaKeGCK

“They’re trying to reach us,” someone said.

77Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCdXpso47ZB

---

77Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvIbDToOkBe

The flickering walls began to stabilize.

77Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡll1f8iiOiw

---

77Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXvZKBk2tYF

Forcing themselves into solid form.

77Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡu9ZYEA4srl

---

77Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡURoTqO1r4P

“They’re locking the system,” another voice warned.

77Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡt6pVKu8Su6

---

77Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbWfRyskRQh

The girl turned to Liyana.

77Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡg3ZKU5crtH

---

77Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlfn8P2yu8l

“If they seal it completely—”

77Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡaptNqvpBko

---

77Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgJHk9OI84a

“We’ll be trapped,” Liyana finished.

77Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpDA2pIzUa2

---

77Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKjrVLfz2Ay

A nod.

77Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡq1xWAzVEgz

---

77Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYAYeQ1mrli

“For good.”

77Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQ2UrJKs9bw

---

77Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHB70KYNsey

The tremors grew stronger.

77Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRwSirZ7ljS

---

77Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsxk2EAYUtZ

The shadows around them began to fade.

77Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPxG5h8KHl6

---

77Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡet7Hgh3HXU

The erased students—

77Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpRDCkcKxUe

disappearing again.

77Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡa5kdCC45I7

---

77Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpMxJaV547d

“No…” Liyana whispered.

77Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvtMyxoblAw

---

77Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvNXxkxFESz

She stepped forward.

77Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmcZIVw9RED

Reached out.

77Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdkWIvtB11F

---

77Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡo01K2WZYqr

“I won’t let this happen again.”

77Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡiX7w9xtbCq

---

77Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAkLnd0q0Pd

The moment her hand touched the flickering wall—

77Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUQmxROJAtN

---

77Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNqlCOrHCnW

Everything stopped.

77Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2OIsqP0iGf

---

77Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOpKHWdyc72

Silence.

77Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsSmNkitHV7

---

77Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUUgHH49gSz

Then—

77Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4JgSAshdcC

a surge.

77Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlfBT4EO1Ki

---

77Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBlT62jcbeV

The space exploded with light.

77Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWEsWEghgiR

---

77Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡg4WoF7uxZi

Not from outside.

77Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfJhkL8CQHW

---

77Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHTBkxEgan1

From her.

77Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLjcnZjOb7P

---

77Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfzEqje1G6c

The system reacted instantly.

77Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡM5vST1u4Qb

---

77Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1QRx5l4QOe

Alarms.

77Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡieMqI6FHqP

Errors.

77Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIO6rIIj052

Distortions.

77Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwGrdbgdNsy

---

77Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqGEyLZgnzZ

“System instability detected.”

77Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡoyb2Gg761T

---

77Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHRWmQDZnIi

The voice broke.

77Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡirK6wi0FVH

Glitched.

77Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ70gdZpcMsb

---

77Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBdlCENik34

The girl stared at Liyana.

77Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmndDv12Ht0

---

77Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLoZWdRQvTK

Eyes wide.

77Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6jLnJWSTJB

---

77Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmffTlFqM2P

“You’re not just a flaw…” she whispered.

77Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1kByAfNXVW

---

77Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6805rbn18J

“You’re the break.”

77Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNIcjIfcyXl

---

77Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNlrheRiWh4

Liyana stood there—

77Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6Mzvk9E94m

breathing hard.

77Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbomObbiWbB

---

77Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGLXC6iec7y

The space around her bending.

77Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9wukd02eIK

Shifting.

77Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDXLS6Iy6lt

Responding.

77Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡd77fw6BWxC

---

77Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxzd5IwdlDh

For the first time—

77Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwix3c71LmR

the system wasn’t in control.

77Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡneFQTYTh8Y

---

77Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJ7IGD5DlNA

She was.77Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqUhgu2pKQg
