Ryuu, Fuuma, and Eiji were bored out of their minds in history class. Mr. Tanaka, their teacher, was droning on about the French Revolution, and the only thing keeping them awake was the thought of escaping to the cafeteria for a much-needed snack break.204Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡK3UWsywWVw

"This is torture," Ryuu whispered to Fuuma, his eyes rolling.204Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡof9mE8jEyT
204Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMwHf3XGTu5
"Tell me about it," Fuuma replied, burying his face in his textbook.204Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsxKtcOA0dq

Eiji, lost in his own world, was sketching a portrait of Aoi, the class president, in his notebook. He had a secret crush on her, and he couldn't help but be drawn to her quiet grace and intelligence.204Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRpo2cq95fQ
204Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNgEJtvGP7Y
Suddenly, a loud BANG echoed through the classroom, followed by a plume of smoke billowing from the back of the room. Chaos erupted as students scrambled to their feet, their faces contorted in terror.204Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7Oo3Jk57Bw

"Fire! Fire!" someone screamed.204Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZdBIglmQmM

Ryuu, ever the prankster, couldn't resist the opportunity for a good laugh. He grabbed a handful of papers from his desk and threw them into the air, yelling, "Run for your lives!"204Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTGptMMIs47
204Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1p7oU2Y4ID
Fuuma, realizing the situation was far from funny, grabbed Ryuu's arm and pulled him towards the door. "Ryuu, this is not the time for a joke!"204Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbXBLmUhGZy
204Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ489ej5daTN
Eiji, still lost in his own world, was oblivious to the pandemonium around him. He continued to sketch Aoi, his eyes fixated on her as she calmly led the students out of the classroom.204Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsK3lyzGYgY

As they made their way down the hallway, the fire alarm blared, its shrill sound filling the air. Ryuu, unable to resist the urge to add to the chaos, started singing along to the alarm, his voice a high-pitched, off-key rendition of "Smoke on the Water."204Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡuY3hSSg9Ew
204Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡl1Ob5lImTR
Fuuma, exasperated, slapped his hand over Ryuu's mouth. "Will you be quiet!"204Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmXHEJ0teI7
204Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJS4998qyYi
"But it's a classic!" Ryuu protested, his eyes sparkling with mischief.204Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡaaONPRG7dd
204Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLOBWAOmHRp
They finally reached the schoolyard, where the students were gathering in a confused mass. Ryuu, still chuckling to himself, pointed at the smoke billowing from the classroom window.204Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQHxolHBiKY
204Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsbcdCHXNos
"I told you it was going to be epic!" he declared, his voice filled with pride.204Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpgAL1St00u
204Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡaSdwtouedp
"You're a menace, Ryuu," Fuuma said, shaking his head in disbelief.204Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdtYvlNwi2P
204Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEXvCMW0SX7
But as they looked around, they noticed that Aoi was nowhere to be seen. She had disappeared into the smoke-filled classroom, and no one knew where she had gone.204Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXFWNqGp7CE
204Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtn5EjlGpIM
"Where's Aoi?" Ryuu asked, his voice suddenly serious.204Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6KwhgKap87
204Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVHVKQMwvos
Fuuma scanned the crowd, his eyes searching for their friend. "I don't know," he said, his voice laced with concern. "Maybe she went back inside?"204Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDVPlabPKHO
204Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZeZ2XHGvqC
Ryuu, his sense of humor momentarily forgotten, felt a pang of worry. He couldn't imagine Aoi being in danger, and he was determined to find her.204Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3IXDdta134
204Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbwyZOyzFZg
"We have to find her," he said, his voice firm. "Let's go back inside."204Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTgNH1ppd8H
204Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYPaWW0a7QN
Fuuma, sharing his friend's concern, nodded in agreement. Together, they made their way back towards the classroom, their hearts pounding with a mixture of fear and determination.
Ryuu, Fuuma, and Eiji stood outside the classroom, the air thick with smoke and the sound of the fire alarm ringing in their ears. Aoi was missing, and a sense of worry settled over them. They knew they had to find her, but what had happened to her, and why had she gone to the library? The mystery deepened, and the trio knew their adventure was just beginning.
