"Hey, wake up. Wake up, the teacher is calling!"
Someone's call woke the girl up, it turned out that she had fallen asleep, she found herself sitting in the classroom, it seemed that it was still in class. The students in the class and the teacher were looking at her.
"Is something wrong, Author?"
"It's okay, teacher"- Author
"Then read the next part of the lesson."
"Yes, teacher"- Author
After school was club time, in the gymnasium where there was a large stage dedicated to performances. The students of the club are practicing for the upcoming play, Author is sitting in a corner reading the printed script, because she is in the equipment group, she can only stand behind the back of the stage to ensure that the play is performed. out smoothly.
"You made the wrong move again. Please don't arbitrarily change the lines in the script!"
"But I don't want to answer Mad Hatter's pointless questions!"
"If the script is written like that, then just follow it!"
While the acting team was arguing over the script issue, the Author took the pen to correct the wrong parts in the script.
"They're starting to argue again. It's annoying, even though I knew Mary-san was talented in acting back in America, her temperament always changed depending on the situation. convenience doesn't match the script"
A girl in the club leaned on Author's person, looking at the printed script that was full of deletions and then re-edited.
"Are you re-editing the script again, Author-chan? Your hobby is really strange"
"But sometimes I think Author-chan's script is pretty good. Sometimes I have to change the script to follow yours."
Author used her finger to lift her glasses and carefully edited the printed script.
"Is that so? I think it will be troublesome for everyone"- Author
"Tell me Author-chan, have you ever written a script for a famous publishing house?"
"No, I've never written for anyone. It's simply my personal preference"- Author

[That's right, it's simply my hobby. From a young age, I was told fairy tales by my parents, most of which have a happy ending for the main character]
[I remember I was very interested in similar fairy tales, but then....]
[The more I get to it, the more I find those fairy tales fake. The main characters are all honest and pure people. And the villain has an evil mind that harms the main character]
[Is the author merely writing for children about pure things, to hide the truth behind?]

When the pedestrian traffic light turned green, Author followed the stream of people across the white line, wondering what to eat when she got home for dinner tonight. It seems that every day is the same as every day when things keep repeating themselves, life just goes on in a normal way.
When she got home, she put the key in the lock and went inside.
"I'm Home"- Author
Her response was silence, which was merely a routine when she returned home to compensate for the loneliness. She doesn't know why her parents left her here and moved abroad, they only give her monthly allowances so that she can live through the day.
She rummaged through the overhead cupboard to see if there was a box of instant noodles just for the sake of emptying her stomach. Living alone, she had no interest in making a proper meal, simply eating what was available at the grocery store to take home.
"It's gone, maybe I should go buy it"- Author
At night the street is crowded and noisy, this is the reason she hates it most when shopping in the evening, people passing by, sometimes a loving couple who like to show their love makes her feel depressed.
Gotta get groceries quickly and then do a lot of work, she told herself as she hurried to the grocery store.
While waiting for the red light to turn green, Author looked up and saw that on the other side of the road, there was a person in the middle of the line with something very strange. The person's face was like a screen with interference, she rubbed her eyes and looked back and saw that the person was completely normal.
Was she hallucinating?
Passing by the mirror shop, suddenly the reflection in the mirror had something big behind her. Author turned to look and did not see anything.
"Maybe I'm so stressed that it's a real hallucination"- Author thought
As soon as I went to the grocery store, I happened to see Mary with a group of friends, who didn't seem like a student. When she saw Author, she was friendly.
"Is that author-san! What a coincidence, are you going to buy food?" - Mary
Author felt frustrated when she kept acting like a cheap, really annoying donut. She ignores her to go into the grocery store when Mary holds her back.
"Wait, you live alone right? Or should we go out, I know this place is fun" - Mary
"Sorry, but I have work to do. So let's go"- Author
"Come on, studying too much is stressful. Come with us, it'll be fun"- Mary
"Let go of my hand!"- Author
While the two were struggling, suddenly there was a strong earthquake, causing everyone to panic.
"What is this?!"
"Earthquake, let's run!"
The ground began to crack open, and they all ran for their lives. While running, Author lost her balance and fell, she raised her hand to Mary to ask for help, but she threw her hand away in a panic and ran to save herself.
That moment suddenly stopped.
Author realized something, she didn't fall but her body was sitting on an invisible pedestal. When she got up, she immediately got out of the cracked ground just in case everything worked as it should.
Gently waving her hand in front of Mary's face, she didn't react, it seemed like everything had really stopped. Author probes around, she realizes, everything including humans is frozen.
"I'm definitely dreaming, that's for sure. I just need to hit myself and I'll wake up"- Author
Suddenly something was so loud that she had to cover her ears, the strange sound was so loud it shook everything, the glass panes from the shattered buildings fell like rain. Author immediately dodged away as shards of glass fell through the physical bodies of the others.
She was surprised, then tried to pick up a piece of glass and accidentally cut her finger, causing blood to leak.
"This is real blood, so that means...this isn't a dream"- Author
Suddenly her pocket vibrated, apparently her phone. She hoped someone would respond to her plea for help, but strangely enough, it wasn't her phone from her pocket. It's a modern touchscreen phone with a book-like case.
Since when did she get a new phone? Her old phone has completely disappeared.
She pressed the power button to start the phone, it showed a butterfly image, not a picture of any phone company logo.
After the phone entered the home screen, Author noticed that it was no different from a normal touch phone, just there were quite strange applications never seen before. There is an application with a red dot that caught her attention, it seems that there is a message that has not been checked, Author clicks on that application, it immediately downloads the application.
It only took a moment, when the application had finished loading so she could check it, it showed a list but only full of question marks.
"What is this? It doesn't make any sense!"- Author
"Doesn't that make any sense?"
"You really are a silly girl!"
Suddenly, two voices startled her. She looked around to see if no one was there. Did she mishear?
"Where are you looking, we're in the sky!"
Author looked up to the sky and saw two very strange puppets, they were dressed in European style, they did not look friendly but very suspicious.
"Who are you? Where am I?!"- Author
"..."
"..."
"Hey Noya"
"What's wrong, Parrah?"
Suddenly the two dolls giggled mockingly at her.
"This girl is really stupid!"- Parrah
"That's right, asking a question is really stupid!"- Noya
"Doesn't see herself alone in this ruined world" - Parrah
"This type of person is really easy to die early" - Noya
They kept saying sarcastic and unpleasant things, making her feel very uncomfortable.
"Kee-hee-hee"- Parrah
"Kee-hee-hee"- Noya
"What are you guys laughing at?"- Author
"They're here, if you don't run away you'll die" - Noya
What is "Them"?- Author
"It's Nightmares!" - Parrah
A sudden strong tremor caused her to lose her balance and fall to the ground. Cracks in the ground spilled out a thick red-black liquid. Then emerged giant monsters, Author immediately saw the danger and ran away quickly, the monsters saw it and chased after.
