Pain and Regret

Hiro held onto the wall aimlessly walking along the hall, having no idea where he was going, he tripped and fall and stood up several times, he was getting crooked up in the room all by himself, he regretted his actions a bit of not taking Ten's help when he offered it to him. But still, though, he wanted to get out of here so badly, he wanted to find his parents, he had to try no matter how helpless he was right now, his teeth clenched just by the thought of him being helpless. 

He imagined his mom and dad's face smiling at him, calling him to join their play at the amusement park, how he ignored them. Regret overwhelmed his body, he never got the chance to tell his dad to thank him for the late birthday present, a present he no longer had and wished with every fiber of his bone he did. at least that would make him feel closer to them. His head kept playing the explosion, that single moment he wished that never happened, when his eyes could see everything, his parents, his childhood friend, the colorful places but now it was nothing but darkness for him.

"It has been 2 years since black storm day. Every one of you has been asleep until yesterday, we kept you in cryonics long enough to produce the SPS" Kiyoshi said.

"In order words, you're kids ranging from 11 to 14," Touka said.

"WHAT?!" Kaneki shouts in extreme shock.

"2... 2... 2 years?!" Shino stammers as his teeth clenched, he rises to his feet.

"You kept us in cryonics for two years!" Shino hissed.

"It was the only way to save your lives, I do not regret my actions" Kiyoshi with a stern look.

"2 years have passed?! 2 years!" Asano said with terrified looks.

Yuki beside her kept a neutral expression, her looks darken.

"What's all this," Yuki said with a dark expression, rising to her feet, gaining the attention of Prime Minister Kiyoshi, Touka, and Hachiro.

"Bio-genetics, survivors, the end of the world, 2 years passing!"

"Yuki-chan," Asano said with trembling eyes.

"It all sounds annoying to me!"

Her neutral expression is unwavering.

Yuki walks out of the classroom hall. Their eyes linger on her as she leaves. Kiyoshi sighed, facing the rest of bio-genetics. He knew right from the start the kids won't take the news well. This was practically a big discovery to them, a whole 2 years of their lives taken from them without them even knowing, they still looked the age they were 2 years ago.

Kiyoshi closed his eyes. 'But still'. He thought, rising to his feet, opening his eyes.

*Sounds oF Shoes On Iron*

Yuki walks along the hall, her gaze on the floor as she did. She halts looking sideways that lead to different paths, and she remembered the straight one leading back to the room hall. She followed the straight path.

Up ahead she heard footsteps, she halts as she blinks. Seeing Hiro coming forward, holding onto the wall for direction, she froze seeing him as her eyes widened, her brain sparking like an electric circuit, as a memory flooded in.

The Amusement Park

Black Storm Day

Yuki's eyes stared at the bright blue skies, she blinked as her gaze averted downwards observing the busy amusement park filled with joyous parents and kids, the colorful sight to behold with many exciting activities to partake in. And then her eyes averted to a spiky dull red-haired boy, a distance away from her, she got a better look at him, and then her eyes widened in total bewilderment. Her eyes trembled just by staring at Hiro whose gaze was at a distance.

Yuki's brain spark, she held her head groaning. 'Why?' She thought as her eyes trembled, her brain spark again, vibrating correspondingly. She gasped as her dark violet eyes with no life in them, lightened a bit. 'Kimura Hiro!'.

Yuki's light violet eyes stared at Hiro, she held her head in pain.

"Kimura Hiro" she groans in pain.

Hiro halts in his steps on hearing his name.

"Who's there?!" Hiro demands, his head turning sideways.

Yuki was silent, she kept observing him. She removed her hand from her head, the pain stopping.

"I asked who's there?!" Hiro hissed, getting impatient, she blinked.

"Nagami Yuki,".

Hiro stiffen.

"Nagami Yuki?" Hiro said, puzzled, the voice sounded like a girl's, so he figured she was one. 'She could be from the room too'. Hiro thought certain.

"How do you know my name?!" Hiro demands once more, he didn't remember telling anyone his full name.

"Where do you think you are going?!" Yuki asked with a neutral expression.

"It's obvious I'm getting out of here and besides I asked a question first. How do you know my name?!" Hiro asked as his features formed in a scowl.

Yuki was silent once more.

"Tck!" Hiro made an annoying sound at her silent gesture.

"There's no getting out of here Hiro," she said walking up close to him. He froze.

"The world has ended, a virus spread along with the explosion, there's nowhere to go!"

"What?!" Hiro was bewildered.

"Wha...what...What are you saying?! The world has ended?! A virus?!"

"Yes, and we are orphans!"

"You're lying, I'm not an orphan, my parents have to be alive, they can't be gone!"

"The Prime Minister said it himself. It's been 2 years since that day, they kept us in a cryonics state!"

"LIAR!" Hiro shouts coming forward but he misses his step falling on the floor hard.

"YOU'RE LYING!"

"You kids have every reason to be angry and hurt," Prime Minister Kiyoshi said, seeing their solemn expressions.

"Your awakening will be the birth of a new generation, not just that!" His hazel eyes fixed on the kids.

"But the future!"
