The Second Glitch ( Fujuzuki's Death)

Realizing that the figure was familiar, Fear started to course through his veins. His reasoning wasn't clear, but he still knew that the girl was involved in what he had just experienced.

"Wh... where have I seen her before?" he asked as a batch of thoughts was thrown at him while observing the Familiar figure.

Fujuzuki's eyes were soon stuck on the girl, and after moments of observation, Fujuzuki remembered the familiar figure as the girl who was supposed to die in his weird dream or vision, and with this...

his already tangled-up mind lost track of its thoughts as it tried to piece all open pieces together.

"Why are you here? why were you in my dream? Who are you?" These were all questions He wanted to ask, and as he was Blindly staring at the school girl, Fujuzuki realized that his dream or vision could have been a possible future, and it was soon to happen.

There was just one Last piece of information that was missing, The truck that had killed him. If the truck wasn't nearby, then that meant what Fujuzuki just experienced was all in his head, an ILLUSION to be precise.

A minute passed and the truck was nowhere to be seen, this let Fujuzuki experience another source of relief as he was glad it was all an illusion.

He slowly stood up from the sidewalk and prepared himself to cross the road until... The truck showed itself, and the girl began to enter the crosswalk, as soon as these two variables happened, Fujuzuki stopped thinking completely as he quickly pulled the girl by her hand.

"Uhmmm, H..hello," He said with an awkward and low tone.

The moment Fujuzuki spoke, The girl showed a sign of disgust on her face."May I help you?" The girl replied in a rude and unjustified tone, though Fujuzuki didn't care much for the girl's attitude as all he cared about was the girl's attention.

"I...I noticed that..your....( W..what am I supposed to say to her now)" Though Fujuzuki had rushed to stop the girl from entering the crosswalk, He didn't have a plan.

"Excuse me, Can you let me go pleased?" the girl asked while trying to get free from Fujuzuki's tight grip.

Even though Fujuzuki knew that what he was doing would be taken as harassment, He never intended on letting go until all the danger had passed."Am sorry but I can't do that at the moment"

"What!? and why's that?" the girl asked in Confusion, and Fujuzuki wanting to answer the girl's question honestly, realized that he seemed like a madman. He was disturbing the peace of a young girl over a vision he had, which might and might not have been true.

For Fujuzuki, Lying was now the best option "B.... because I thought you were beautiful and that I should say Hi!" was outed by Fujuzuki unintentionally.

The girl after hearing His words quickly pulled her hand away from him and continued down the crosswalk, and this time instead of nearly dying, The girl crossed the road safely as the truck had already passed.

"Few...Thank God!" Fujuzuki praised as he soon continued on his way home. Later that night as Fujuzuki entered his house, He didn't even have the time to properly sought his thoughts as such he went straight to bed.

[Location: The Cloudy Night Sky]

A familiar voice echoed continuously as many blue panels turned red at its failure. This scene continued for half an hour, till the unknown entity came to a decision.

----[6:30]---Early in the morning, Fujuzuki was woken up by the sound of his alarm, and as he woke up, His body was swallowed by pain.

While trying to find the reason for his pain, Fujuzuki slowly got off his bed and tried to seek out what happened last night as his thoughts were a bit hazy from time to time.

Soon time began to move and after five minutes of thinking, Fujuzuki wasn't able to remember anything that had happened from last night.

It was weird because he was sure that something big had happened yesterday, but it seems he was unable to remember any of it.

"(sigh) I should prepare for work, thinking about it ain't gonna solve anything." And just like that, another day at work waited for Fujuzuki.

A normal and uneventful day it was, That was until night came.

----

----[23:55]---Fujuzuki was in his neighborhood heading home, and while he didn't have a specific reason for it, Fujuzuki felt a huge amount of uneasiness.

The uneasiness he felt would grow with every passing second. He didn't quite understand the feeling he got, but he knew that the moment his watch hit midnight, Death awaited.

With the clock slowly closing in at midnight, Everything around Fujuzuki would slowly go quiet, all he could hear was the hand on his watch moving on to midnight.

*Tick-tock Tick-tock Tick-tock Tick-tock...

----[00:00]-Midnight--

The second glitch began.

Like last time, The world was hit by a glitch, but this time the glitch was different.

The glitch this time had quite a restless feeling to it as if it was rushed, it had also given Fujuzuki his memories back.

Memories he had forgotten, only a day had passed since these events happened, but Confusion, Fear and Pain Three feelings Fujuzuki was completely familiar with would continuously swallow him.

"W...why!? why am I remembering this now!? Why did I even forget in the first place?"

Once more, Fujuzuki began to ask himself questions as a supernatural event occurred once more, and with his memories slowly returning to him, Fujuzuki started to remember the girl he had saved Last night.

"The Girl!? That's right if I find the girl maybe she'll know something." With this, Fujuzuki had a clue about understanding what had happened last night, but...

Hope wasn't what he had gained as he realized that last night was his first time seeing the girl, maybe his Last too. Seeing the girl wasn't such a great idea to begin with, For all Fujuzuki knew, the girl could've been a demon.

A few minutes passed as Fujuzuki tried calming down, and as Fujuzuki had regained his cool, a small solution came to his mind "(sigh)my mind is a mess right now." The solution that had come to him was to get some rest.

with his mind now made up, Fujuzuki was now on his way home, and as he was walking, He would continuously lose balance because of the pain he had just experienced.

Even so, this didn't stop him it motivated him to reach his house as quickly as he could so he could get some rest.

Moments later, Fujuzuki could see his house before him, and with that, he experienced relief, Though the feeling didn't last as it was disturbed by the voice of a screaming girl.

"Help!! Someone... please help!!"

Like a thunderclap, the voice echoed loudly in his ear, and as Fujuzuki was highly familiar with the voice, he remembered it from Last night.

The voice had belonged to the girl he had rescued yesterday, and Though Fujuzuki could have rushed straight towards the voice to confirm his suspicion, He did no such thing.

He reasoned that if he went toward the voice, Something bad would follow him.

Fujuzuki, once more continued on his way toward his house while trying to ignore the constant screaming of the girl.

Moments later when Fujuzuki was at the door of his house, and the screaming had finally stopped, Fujuzuki was opening the door to his house when he heard "She finally shut up. It's time to enjoy ourselves boys." a hoarse voice sounded.

His efforts at not getting involved in this had completely failed as he was already searching for the girl. His search would soon lead him to an alley a block away from his house, and just like he imagined, He found three thugs trying to rape the girl.

"Stop!!" he shouted.

"Huh! and who are you?" Said the skinny thug." Haha, must be a wanna-bee hero." spoke the one who looked like he had muscles for a brain.

"Tch. Why don't you stop blabbering and take care of him already." was their leader who gave the order.

Their leader had an average build and wasn't tall or short, but it was clear from the way he had held himself that he wasn't your average thug.

Even his subordinates were afraid of him, as judged by Fujuzuki for the way they blindly followed his orders, and As ordered by their boss, the two thugs headed in Fujuzuki's direction with hostile intent.

The skinny thug would take out a knife from his pants while the Muscles readied his fists, and as the two closed in on him, Fujuzuki would take a step back and hold his briefcase firmly.

The thoughts that would run through his mind at the time were that all of this was a bad idea, Why did he have to come and act like a hero? Fujuzuki, who was now regretting his actions didn't get the chance to walk away as the skinny thug was already trying to stab him.

Fujuzuki was barely able to dodge the attack, but he wasn't so lucky with the strikes that followed. He was scratched three times while dodging attacks from the thug.

After moments of continuous stabbing and dodging, heavy breathing could be heard.

"huff.. huff.. what's up with this dude, is he seriously trying to kill me!?" was Fujuzuki realizing that the people in Infront of him weren't simple thugs.

"I seriously have to get away from here, this doesn't concern me anymore!!" When Fujuzuki had finally made a decision, the skinny thug stopped attacking.

Thinking that the thug had given up, Fujuzuki quickly turned around in an attempt to run away when he was met with a giant fist heading for his face.

The first wasn't as fast as the attacks from the other thug, so Fujuzuki thought he could block it, and just like that, he used his briefcase to receive the attack.

BOOM!

His thoughts on being able to block the attack were completely shattered as he soon found himself on the alley flow.

The force of the punch from the thug was enough to blow him away, it was even strong enough to reach his face.

Fujuzuki lay there on the alley floor with blood flowing out of his nose.

"What just happened?! Why's there pain in my nose? is it broken, I think it's broken!?" Fujuzuki thought to himself as the skinny thug crouched down and Slowly stabbed his hand.

"Huh! aren't you supposed to be a hero, then what's this,?" The skinny thug questioned as he continued stabbing Fujuzuki.

"Haha... see I told you he was a wanna-be hero." said the big guy.

Screaming was soon heard from the alley as Fujuzuki was continuously stabbed.

The thug didn't plan on killing him, He had just thought of using Fujuzuki as a toy.

Moments later, Fujuzuki was swimming in his pool of blood with stab wounds all over his body. It had become harder to breathe as was expressed by the dying Fujuzuki.

Why did he run towards the screaming? why did he save the girl the first time? why was this happening to him? Fujuzuki asked as he would soon realize that the girl had stopped screaming a long time ago.

"Wait!! what happened to the girl?" he thought.

As he began to create many different scenarios in his head of what had happened to the girl, Fujuzuki heard a voice.

---

---

*BANG!* * BANG!*

"Huh! Where's that voice coming from, and what's that noise!?" He asked himself as he soon saw the two thugs falling.

"W... what's going on here?" Once more he asked himself as he saw the girl who was supposed to be raped heading his way with the thug leader's head in her hands.

The girl soon crouched down before Fujuzuki with a weird expression on her face. Her expression entailed that she was emotionless, which was completely different from the look that Fujuzuki had on his face.

His face was filled with many expressions which showed agony, confusion, despair, and pain, and as Fujuzuki and the girl stared straight into each other's eyes, Rain started to pour down.

Thunder began roaring in the background as Fujuzuki began to lose consciousness, The girl soon started caressing his face while saying the following...

"Am sorry for the inconvenience Candidate 0003, It seems that someone had interfered in my first attempt at transferring you so I had to resort to measures like these. Don't worry though, I'll be sure to properly compensate you, so you can rest easy now."

With those words, Fujuzuki's consciousness only dripped away.
