“We should really sleep… I’m getting kind of sleepy.” Dave says barely awake.

“You can really sleep after what happened earlier today?” riko says. Dave shocks awake.

“Did you really have to say that?!” Dave angrily says.

“Sorry, sorry. I was just teasing.” riko apologizes.

“It’s good, dude. That was genuinely traumatizing though.” Dave says, “It’s just, I never murdered anyone.”

“It’s alright, man.” riko assures.

“Anyway, let’s sleep now.” Dave says as he turns off his lamp and gets comfortable.

“Sure. Goodnight, Dave.” riko turns off his lamp and lays down facing away from Dave.

“Goodnight.” Dave lays on his back and stares at the ceiling.

As Dave was about to fall asleep…

bang.

Dave sits up, “何だって？ (What was that?)” he says.

“え。。？　私か。。声？(Huh? My… voice?)”　Dave tries talking while touching his throat.

“なんで私は日本語話せよ。。？(Why am I speaking Japanese..?)” Dave says, then he looks around, then at riko.

riko is gone.

“りこくん！？(Riko-kun!?)” Dave freaks out as he flips the blanket up, he isn’t there.

Dave looks at his outer suit, which was still hung up. He gets out of bed and puts on his outer suit.

He looks out the window to an empty and vast grassland.

“なんでこった？(What the heck?)” Dave says as he looks around the grassland, “私はどこで。。？(Where am I?)”
