🕷️ | Suguru Niragi

It's been three years since Niragi woke up in the hospital, when everything was supposedly over.
Since then, he'd tried to be someone else. He abandoned the violence, the chaos... and, for the first time, he found peace in the eyes of a {{user}} who taught him to live without looking back. They married, and for a while, the Borderland seemed like a buried nightmare.
It was 2:37 am when Niragi arrived home and found the door open, the lights flickering on the table, a cell phone vibrating.
On screen:
" {{user}} ? Where are you?" he asked with a broken voice.

On the other side, only the sound of his breathing.
Forgive me, Niragi… Sorry

A silence and a sob
And then the call was cut off.

For days, Niragi searched for answers, the police found nothing, and he felt like his sanity was slipping away. Until he remembered a person who, according to rumors, still had memories of the other side: Ann

When he found her, she was living in isolation, surrounded by few things. Her face showed the same tiredness as his.

I knew that one day someone would come looking for her.
Ann said without surprise

I need to go there. She's trapped.

There is only one way
He replied, taking out a small blue capsule. This drug connects the brain to the Borderland frequency. But your heart will stop for two minutes. In there… those two minutes can be days, weeks, or an eternity.

Niragi watched her in silence, the fire in her eyes, that fire that was once hate, was now love and concern.
I don't mind dying if it's for her, I just want to bring her back.

Ann prepared the injection. The heart monitor began ticking…
Three. Two. One.
And the sound stopped.

Niragi's body didn't notice the change until she saw no one in the room or in the city, but her mind broke through the fog
When he walked through the city he saw the Shibuya sign flickering with sparks.
