Chapter Text
Minato Arisato was on his way. He was heading to a new school for the year. He was not alone, however, as one might think.
With him was his sister, Hamuko, who was currently drooling on his shoulder, asleep.
For ten years, it had just been the two of them. There was a car crash, ten years ago. Their parents were killed in the crash, but somehow, they both survived the crash. The doctors couldn’t seem to understand how it was that we survived but…
He could feel tears pricking at his eyes and he quickly shook his head. It was in the past, he should be over it by now. Besides, this was a new year, a fresh start for both of them. A chance to make new friends and meet new people.
As the train screeched to a halt, his sister jolted awake. “Ugh, are we finally here?”
Minato chuckled softly. “Yeah, we made it.”
Hamuko stretched. “Well let’s get our stuff and get off.” She said, as she got off to grab her bags.
Minato followed suit, grabbing his bags before stepping off the train, his sister in tow.
“Alright, we’re supposed to be going to the Iwatodai Dorm.” Minato raises his hand. “Which is...this way!” He pointed north.

As they marched along, Minato with headphones on, listening to music and Hamuko, skipping along behind him, they noticed something incredibly odd.
First of all, where the hell did all of these coffins come from.
“Big bro...what’s happening…” Hamuko asked, shivering. Was it always this cold?
Minato glanced at the sky. What was with this gloom?
“... Let’s just keep moving.” He said, softly. They were almost there anyway.
He tugged her along as they approached the front door, only to suddenly notice the boy standing in front of the door.
“Oh, hello you two.” The boy spoke softly, with a sense of familiarity.
“Uh, do we know you?” Minato asked.
The boy chuckled. “Apologies, my name is of no importance, however, before you can enter this building you both must sign…” He pulled out a piece of paper. “This contract.”
“Uhhh...this seems very suspicious.” Hamuko raises an eyebrow.
“Trust me...this is important.” The boy nodded.
The twins looked at each other before shrugging and signing their names.
“Thank you and welcome to the Iwatodai Dormitory.” The boy smiled and walked inside. The twins themselves were about to head in, before hearing a much deeper voice.
“This world has been connected.”
They both turned to see a man in a brown cloak.
“What did you say?” Minato asked, ready to defend his sibling if needed.
“I’ve come to see the door to the next world.”
“You better start making sense.” Minato growled.
The figure seemed to shake its head from side-to-side. “One who knows nothing can understand nothing.” Then, he just began walking away.
“...What was that all about?” Hamuko asked.
“I don’t know Hamu, I don’t know.”
