Night fell like black silk over the ruined train station.Null sat alone on the platform edge, staring at the flickering neon light across the street.His head still throbbed. His memories felt like broken glass grinding inside his skull.
But something else was happening now…
He was starting to feel emotions he thought he didn't have.
Fear.Sadness.And a strange warmth whenever he remembered him…
His older brother.
His blurry smile.
His voice calling his name— the name Null still couldn't fully hear.
Hyung watches quietly
Hyung leaned against a concrete pillar, arms crossed, eyes narrowed.
He wasn't just watching Null.He was protecting him.
Hyung (thinking):If the Order sends the Mind Reaper here… Null won't survive another break.
The air shifted.
A cold wind blew across the tracks.
Hyung stepped forward.
Hyung: "Another memory spike?"
Null didn't answer at first. He just pressed a shaking hand to his temple.
Null:"I saw… someone.Someone I loved.Someone who died because of me."
Hyung's eyes widened at the last line.
Hyung: "You don't know that yet. Memories can lie."
Null shook his head.
Null: "Not this one."
Cut to: Gray & Vyra — The New Duo
Inside the main hall, Gray tested his newly wrapped arm while Vyra leaned against a broken train seat, pretending not to stare at him.
Gray caught her.
Smirked.
Gray: "You know, if you stare any harder you'll cut me with your eyes."
Vyra's ears went red.
Vyra:"Shut up.I'm checking if the bandage is holding."
Gray walked closer, lowering his voice.
Gray: "You worry too much."
Vyra's eyes softened just a little.
Vyra: "Only about the ones I don't want to lose."
Before Gray could reply—a loud, cold metallic echo rang through the station.
Both turned instantly.
Something was coming.
The Mind Reaper Arrives
Far across the empty tunnels, a figure hovered silently above the tracks.
A cloak of threads.No footsteps.Just a whispering void around him.
The Mind Reaper.
Sent to erase Null's memories permanently.
He raised a hand, and all the lights in the tunnel bent toward him, sucked like breath into a black hole.
Gray stepped in front of Vyra.
Gray: "Stay back. I'll—"
Vyra grabbed his wrist.
Vyra: "No. We fight together."
Gray nodded.
This time, no jokes.This was real.
Back to Null — The Final Crack
Null's vision blurred—
FLASHHe and his brother training under the broken moon.
FLASHA voice:"You'll surpass me one day.Just don't forget who you are."
FLASHBlood.A broken hand reaching out.
Null fell to his knees.
Null: "Hyung… He didn't just die… He died saving—"
And then the temperature dropped.
A shadow fell over him.
Hyung stepped in front of Null instantly.
Hyung: "Null. Get up.The Mind Reaper is here."
Null slowly lifted his head.
His eyes were different now.Not empty.
Full of something awakening.
Final Scene — The Clash Begins
The Mind Reaper extended both hands, threads swirling like living serpents, ready to tear the memories from Null's skull.
Hyung took his stance.
Gray and Vyra charged from the hall.
Null finally rose, eyes shimmering with broken and newborn identity.
Null:"If you want my mind…come take it."
The station cracked as the battle began.
