Hope - “ a feeling of expectation and desire for a certain thing to happen.” . . . Akari’s Reaction . . . . ‘hmmm..- I wonder what Sona’s plan will be..’ *Akari was walking down the hall near the room(?) that the fire was in* ‘wait… this smell..’ /?!/ *she felt that something was very wrong. This.. This was the smell of smoke.. and this much smoke.. means.. a fire..?* ‘wait.. why is there..’ *she finally got near the door, quickly attempting to fling it open. Once she manages to get the door, she sees… SONA-CHAN?!* ‘ ‘ S-Sona…? ‘ ‘ *Akari knew this would happen.. well not really.. *this*. Sona’s laughter “scared” her a bit, these scars bothering her aswell* ‘ ‘ ..S-sona-chan.. ‘ ‘ *she saw a long haired brown girl already in the room* ‘ ‘ …T-this is.. a bit much.. ‘ ‘ *she said this under her breathe, so low, the others couldn’t hear it. They hear Sona start to laugh a bit, telling them it was weird to be scared, as well as that they agree to this.* ' ' ... ' ' *Is this.. really Sona right now-?!* ' ' Sona-chan.. Don't you think this is a bit- much..? ' ' *she cringed at the smell of smoke* ' ' ..Everyone might.. "hate" you now.. ' ' *She wasn't gonna lie, thus version of Sona *did* intrigue her. The stuttering was meant for her hesitation* ‘Sona.. why.. why are they saying this..? Is this some.. /twisted version of hope-? They’re talking about their goals.. it mine too though../ ' ' Sona-chan... ' ' *This was to much.. She clears her throat, before leaping into a fit of coughs* ' ' urg.. Sona.. someone could get *really hurt.. ' ' *the longer she stayed in there, the more they felt like passing out.* ' ' A-and.. ' ' *her breath was shaky, trying to get more air* ' ' It's.. *our* goal.. I- wanted to help you.. ' ' *she stumbles, almost falling down* ' ' .. ' ' *the last words were whispered, but they were heard. "I.. !0()3 you.. ' ' *after that moment things were a bit of a blur. She remembered telling Sona that she was sorry, and that they had carried her to their room leaving a note. A note..?* /?!/ *they suddenly woke up, heir chest exploding into a huge coughing fit. W-what had just- oh..* ‘so that really happened..?’ *they get less nauseous, remembering what happened before. A tear fall down their cheek.* ‘ ‘ A-ah.. I’m.. I’m so sorry I couldn’t help you Sona-Chan.. ‘ ‘ *she didn’t try to get up, not trusting her legs enough, and saw the note in the table.* ‘oh right!! The note..’ *she picked it up reading it* “I’m sorry. I’m so sorry. I took it too far” *after reading the note, she began to sob. Sona didn’t deserve to feel this way…* ‘ ‘ I’m sorry too.. ‘ ‘ *she whispered it into the darkness, knowing no-one would ever hear it* . . . Fin. . . This was so fun to make tbh- I do love some angst ⭐️ I hoped you liked the reaction- I did my best!! <3 Have a nice day, and drink water!!
