"Not quite." A voice answered him.
"Who's there." Noir answered.
"Who? Oh come on, don't tell me you forgot all about me already." It answered, slightly laughing.
"You're... From before..." Noir answered with a surprise look.

The smell was the worst. It was like inhaling burning poison. His lungs were on fire, and his entire wind pipe seemed damaged.
