A lone eagle soared above the sky.

Scaramouche sat inside the boat of the man that helped the three reach Watatsumi yesterday.

They finally reached their destination.But before he could leave the boat,the man stopped him and handed him a cloth covered box filled with snacks.

"Eat this up there."

He took the box with his two hands."Your drawing of Watatsumi...It was good."

Scaramouche exited the boat and watched it sail away.He bowed  and closed his eyes before he started the real trip.

Drops of water fell down from the sky accompanied by a thunderstorm.Water dripped down on his black hiking jacket as he ran through the storm rushing to get a shelter.

He managed to seek a shelter inside a giant boulder.Waiting for the sky to calm down,he reached for the opened bento box the man gave him earlier and took a piece of onigiri,taking a bite on it.

His indigo eyes flickered to the red string
wrapped around his wrist.

"They converge and take shape.They twist,tangle,sometimes unravel,then connect again..."He repeated the words (Y/n)'s grandmother said.

"Musubi- knotting.That's time..."
________

Cold puffs of air left his mouth as he gasped with every breath.The view of the (L/n) shrine came to view.He removed his hood from his head,revealing his indigo colored hair and gasped.

"There it is.It's really there.It wasn't just a dream.."

He wiped his wet eyes with his sleeves and went down and stopped at the narrow stream of river.

"From here is the underworld."He whispered to myself.

The cold temperature of the river gave him goosebumps on his skin once Scaramouche plunged his feet on the water to cross.

He entered the cave and placed his bag on the rocky ground.Scaramouche kneeled on one knee and took his phone from his pocket and turning the flashlight on"It's the sake we brought."

"This is her sister's,and this is mine."

"Before the comet struck...So the (Y/n) I know is from three years ago?"

"Our timelines weren't in step."he said,wiping some part of the moss from the container.He placed his phone on the floor to open the cap untying the red string first.

"Half of her..."

He poured some kuchikamisake on the cup."Musubi."

"If time can really be turned back,give me one last chance..."

He quickly drank the sake in one gulp.He sighed and stood up only to slip from the slippery floor by accident.The light from his phone hit the ceiling of the cave.Symbols were marked on it,producing a picture of a comet.

























A woman appeared,smiling at her child beside her."Your name is (Y/n)."She whispered.

Scaramouche watched the visions with wide eyes.

"You're both my treasures."Your dad muttered.

Your mother caressed your head as you hugged your mother's stomach gently with your small arms."You're a big sister now."

"I'm so sorry,my dears."Your mother laid on her hospital bed frail and sickly.Your father shut his eyes closed in despair.

"Dad,when is Mom going to come home?"Sayu asked innocently.

"I couldn't save her."

"Get a hold of yourself!"

"Who cares about the shrine?"

"You're the adopted son-in-law!"

"I loved my wife.Not the (L/n) shrine."

"Get out of here!"

You and Sayu stood outside as you watched your father leave.

The three of you knelt on a mat.

"(Y/n),Sayu,you'll be with Grandma from now on."

"Who am I?No.who are you?"

You grabbed a pen and wrote shorty on your face."Don't be full of yourself.Not like YOU have a girlfriend."

You tied your hair with a red string as you stared at the mirror.A tear dripped down on your face."I.."

"I'm going to Inazuma city."Sayu gasped."What?Hey,(Y/n)!"

"Granny,could you do me a favor?"You said standing on the doorway.

Snap

"Oh yeah,the comet."

"Today's the peak of it's brightness..."

"(Y/n)!Don't stay there!"

"(Y/n),get the hell out of there before the comet strikes!"

(Y/n)!

(Y/n)!

(Y/n)!
