The Awakening

The three people walked into the cemetery with thick raincoats covering them. The hoods were pulled up, hiding their faces from curious eyes.

When they came across the old man who was walking out of the cemetery, for a moment the old man seemed to want to say something. But then when he caught the glaring eyes of the tallest one in the group, he scurried away in fear instead.

Free from any disruption, the girl marched to her destination with light footsteps. Although it was her first time walking through the rows of gravestones in the St. Peter cemetery, she acted like she had done it more than a hundred times in the past.

Behind him, her two companions struggled to keep up.

Eventually, the boy lost his patience.

"Aria, wait!!!" he shouted while grabbing the girl's wrist and yanking her backward.

Having expected the sudden pull, the girl ended up pulling the boy forward instead.

"Aaaaaaaah~!!!" the boy yelped in surprise.
