Fifty Fourth Summons: Another Hopeless Sacrifice - Erased

[miss_enma_ai]

[She's getting irritated now. She was supposed to vanish, and they said she did. But she was still here.

Maybe this was hell.

Action:

A. Home: Ai is in the house, looking around for people.

B. A little girl just appeared in front of you. She's on her way to Sluggers house but she's trying to see if people can see her so she's randomly teleporting in

B

[strike_you_out]

[At Ai's sudden appearance, Slugger is relieved... initially. But the hopeful look in his eyes soon fades and he takes a step back, watching her uncertainly.]

...

[miss_enma_ai]

[She looks at him and the hopeful expression on her face vanishes. Replaced with a wary one.]

.....Why did they take you, if they didn't take me?

[strike_you_out]

[Slugger's eyebrows draw together in confusion and then hurt.]

They didn't take me. They took you-- her.

[miss_enma_ai]

Him.

I'm still here.

[strike_you_out]

[He looks down at the ground, tension building in his hands and shoulders.]

The dream said you weren't supposed to remember me.

[miss_enma_ai]

You're not supposed to remember me either.

[strike_you_out]

I was supposed to be the one they took. Just me.

[miss_enma_ai]

I agreed to go. Just me.

[strike_you_out]

[His head jerks up to level her with an angry look.]

Why!? Why did you go?

[miss_enma_ai]

.....The world was better without me.

[strike_you_out]

Stop!

[He shouts, then turns away. Fake or not, he doesn't want to hear her speak those words.]

[miss_enma_ai]

[She falls silent.]

I'm sorry...... I thought it was for the best. You weren't supposed to remember me.

[strike_you_out]

[After a deep breath, he seems a bit calmer.]

...If we both did the same thing, why do we remember each other?

[miss_enma_ai]

.......it was a trick.

[Just trying to think this over. There's something off about Slugger....but at the same time.]

You think I'm fake....I think you're fake...

[strike_you_out]

[Slugger stares in her direction but his gaze loses its focus as he contemplates what this means. What if they're both real?]

I don't know why. It's just a feeling.

[miss_enma_ai]

You just seem.....off.
