Ryuu, Fuuma, and Eiji were bored out of their minds in history class. Mr. Tanaka, their teacher, was droning on about the French Revolution, and the only thing keeping them awake was the thought of escaping to the cafeteria for a much-needed snack break.284Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTP9NYuO6Ye

"This is torture," Ryuu whispered to Fuuma, his eyes rolling.284Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5tog61czAV
284Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡv6QYwsO90q
"Tell me about it," Fuuma replied, burying his face in his textbook.284Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjcegHsWVDY

Eiji, lost in his own world, was sketching a portrait of Aoi, the class president, in his notebook. He had a secret crush on her, and he couldn't help but be drawn to her quiet grace and intelligence.284Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSgnikv1bJq

Suddenly, a loud BANG echoed through the classroom, followed by a plume of smoke billowing from the back of the room. Chaos erupted as students scrambled to their feet, their faces contorted in terror.284Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡti1xhLjuY6
284Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrEgrAKYGtT
"Fire! Fire!" someone screamed.284Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡk2jMtzgvmz
284Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhxFghzy8ZI
Ryuu, ever the prankster, couldn't resist the opportunity for a good laugh. He grabbed a handful of papers from his desk and threw them into the air, yelling, "Run for your lives!"284Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡc9dQNIzyyq
284Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlzY4Q3EmLd
Fuuma, realizing the situation was far from funny, grabbed Ryuu's arm and pulled him towards the door. "Ryuu, this is not the time for a joke!"284Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnqEkITsMUl
284Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtzOjQGpiVc
Eiji, still lost in his own world, was oblivious to the pandemonium around him. He continued to sketch Aoi, his eyes fixated on her as she calmly led the students out of the classroom.284Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxUDv531vtQ
284Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡoPQpnxbIeL
As they made their way down the hallway, the fire alarm blared, its shrill sound filling the air. Ryuu, unable to resist the urge to add to the chaos, started singing along to the alarm, his voice a high-pitched, off-key rendition of "Smoke on the Water."284Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡiweKkqHjGM
284Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡU45hSO6Sse
Fuuma, exasperated, slapped his hand over Ryuu's mouth. "Will you be quiet!"284Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIeME9vcKup
284Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNo8OTyD7wk
"But it's a classic!" Ryuu protested, his eyes sparkling with mischief.284Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOVTu0hJxSZ
284Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNi4Xezlw71
They finally reached the schoolyard, where the students were gathering in a confused mass. Ryuu, still chuckling to himself, pointed at the smoke billowing from the classroom window.284Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBmfJPLvrcz
284Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmLVwDNWcNP
"I told you it was going to be epic!" he declared, his voice filled with pride.284Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFucTWvz7YE
284Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYLp9fO9BJ5
"You're a menace, Ryuu," Fuuma said, shaking his head in disbelief.284Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9TI34fWROb
284Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVvZ64GL3hI
But as they looked around, they noticed that Aoi was nowhere to be seen. She had disappeared into the smoke-filled classroom, and no one knew where she had gone.284Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡC3dqsacRUa
284Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSDPAiOhvA5
"Where's Aoi?" Ryuu asked, his voice suddenly serious.284Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6PMK7A9U6h
284Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGBvomoPuoP
Fuuma scanned the crowd, his eyes searching for their friend. "I don't know," he said, his voice laced with concern. "Maybe she went back inside?"284Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUa9oeGbBnM
284Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEWixpDEHLX
Ryuu, his sense of humor momentarily forgotten, felt a pang of worry. He couldn't imagine Aoi being in danger, and he was determined to find her.284Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmGh9aR9bQD
284Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡd7AwNBMaUs
"We have to find her," he said, his voice firm. "Let's go back inside."284Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvXrx54m4Cx
284Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHKtkBR9cPR
Fuuma, sharing his friend's concern, nodded in agreement. Together, they made their way back towards the classroom, their hearts pounding with a mixture of fear and determination.
Ryuu, Fuuma, and Eiji stood outside the classroom, the air thick with smoke and the sound of the fire alarm ringing in their ears. Aoi was missing, and a sense of worry settled over them. They knew they had to find her, but what had happened to her, and why had she gone to the library? The mystery deepened, and the trio knew their adventure was just beginning.
