Ryuu, Fuuma, and Eiji were bored out of their minds in history class. Mr. Tanaka, their teacher, was droning on about the French Revolution, and the only thing keeping them awake was the thought of escaping to the cafeteria for a much-needed snack break.237Please respect copyright.PENANAI8b9sARpzg
237Please respect copyright.PENANA6OT5ieqgek
"This is torture," Ryuu whispered to Fuuma, his eyes rolling.237Please respect copyright.PENANAramygcFSMu
237Please respect copyright.PENANAGj4fGYfF5l
"Tell me about it," Fuuma replied, burying his face in his textbook.237Please respect copyright.PENANAL4N2GrOdwr

Eiji, lost in his own world, was sketching a portrait of Aoi, the class president, in his notebook. He had a secret crush on her, and he couldn't help but be drawn to her quiet grace and intelligence.237Please respect copyright.PENANAcGNBNPrnxa
237Please respect copyright.PENANAsqIuWSvTt3
Suddenly, a loud BANG echoed through the classroom, followed by a plume of smoke billowing from the back of the room. Chaos erupted as students scrambled to their feet, their faces contorted in terror.237Please respect copyright.PENANAVOKhX5klor
237Please respect copyright.PENANAeFIJhFqPLw
"Fire! Fire!" someone screamed.237Please respect copyright.PENANAZZaZV7SVv0
237Please respect copyright.PENANAQjuelqjxDT
Ryuu, ever the prankster, couldn't resist the opportunity for a good laugh. He grabbed a handful of papers from his desk and threw them into the air, yelling, "Run for your lives!"237Please respect copyright.PENANAR4K05bRys5
237Please respect copyright.PENANAtQ47ovhgNf
Fuuma, realizing the situation was far from funny, grabbed Ryuu's arm and pulled him towards the door. "Ryuu, this is not the time for a joke!"237Please respect copyright.PENANAlrkbACxTEu
237Please respect copyright.PENANAscKPCJrGh2
Eiji, still lost in his own world, was oblivious to the pandemonium around him. He continued to sketch Aoi, his eyes fixated on her as she calmly led the students out of the classroom.237Please respect copyright.PENANA2hUiB5cUYQ
237Please respect copyright.PENANAmZNSqRfYHN
As they made their way down the hallway, the fire alarm blared, its shrill sound filling the air. Ryuu, unable to resist the urge to add to the chaos, started singing along to the alarm, his voice a high-pitched, off-key rendition of "Smoke on the Water."237Please respect copyright.PENANAHM9vO3PFzg
237Please respect copyright.PENANAkHZefiKbVQ
Fuuma, exasperated, slapped his hand over Ryuu's mouth. "Will you be quiet!"237Please respect copyright.PENANAljmEGjvc0R
237Please respect copyright.PENANActJA9jQjei
"But it's a classic!" Ryuu protested, his eyes sparkling with mischief.237Please respect copyright.PENANA5Oa5vmAGit
237Please respect copyright.PENANA6FLXWN1aaq
They finally reached the schoolyard, where the students were gathering in a confused mass. Ryuu, still chuckling to himself, pointed at the smoke billowing from the classroom window.237Please respect copyright.PENANAjP2p1H2LyR
237Please respect copyright.PENANAzbJjVtUQym
"I told you it was going to be epic!" he declared, his voice filled with pride.237Please respect copyright.PENANA95Sml02FX8
237Please respect copyright.PENANA8nfJWK0V1i
"You're a menace, Ryuu," Fuuma said, shaking his head in disbelief.237Please respect copyright.PENANAKjbkpZmteG
237Please respect copyright.PENANARxeKU1IP7T
But as they looked around, they noticed that Aoi was nowhere to be seen. She had disappeared into the smoke-filled classroom, and no one knew where she had gone.237Please respect copyright.PENANA7OYt9e7Xe6
237Please respect copyright.PENANATIl6OQ47zE
"Where's Aoi?" Ryuu asked, his voice suddenly serious.237Please respect copyright.PENANAS1z2d0zdPy
237Please respect copyright.PENANAkVHRBO032w
Fuuma scanned the crowd, his eyes searching for their friend. "I don't know," he said, his voice laced with concern. "Maybe she went back inside?"237Please respect copyright.PENANA2PWgBlB991
237Please respect copyright.PENANAlajRpyU0Xz
Ryuu, his sense of humor momentarily forgotten, felt a pang of worry. He couldn't imagine Aoi being in danger, and he was determined to find her.237Please respect copyright.PENANAx3zK5bLbmi
237Please respect copyright.PENANA7SwIIUUf1h
"We have to find her," he said, his voice firm. "Let's go back inside."237Please respect copyright.PENANAGUJ9TmYcaK
237Please respect copyright.PENANAvuqaq8AITL
Fuuma, sharing his friend's concern, nodded in agreement. Together, they made their way back towards the classroom, their hearts pounding with a mixture of fear and determination.
Ryuu, Fuuma, and Eiji stood outside the classroom, the air thick with smoke and the sound of the fire alarm ringing in their ears. Aoi was missing, and a sense of worry settled over them. They knew they had to find her, but what had happened to her, and why had she gone to the library? The mystery deepened, and the trio knew their adventure was just beginning.
