    I am Shin Voillet and this is my story :Im a first year high schooler and even though Im living in Tokyo with my

    grandparents , I was born in France. I actually dont remember anything going on at thetime I was still there and it doesnt even matter.

    I was living a common life I hated upon realizing something . I posses a power that

    changed everything around me. I can clearly see whatever goes on inside my head infront of my eyes. If I daydream about some person Ill actually see him/her right in front ofme. Well,its not that simple because there are some rules I had to come to understandlike , I can use an imaginary object for just an amount of time until my head startshurting. The most important rule of all is : I cant create life,and even if I could,it wouldjust disappear in a matter of hours so it would be pointless.

    Im currently attending the Art and music high school as I picked an interest in musicquite a while ago and, either way, with my bad marks all over , this is the only one I couldbe attending .

    As for my social life (you get the point) . Basically Im being left out ofeverything. People thought Im mentally disturbed or something ,and with just a fewrumors around BOOM whos alone? Me. Well , its not like I really care. Ive beenthinking lately about this and even if I had a friend , he wouldnt be there for an eternity.- Within these papers lines I might change the way this is written live with it!

    I have a lot of spare time within Im just sitting alone thinking. This made meunderstand a lot of things like, my dreams are shallow. I remember once havingnightmares Those really sucked, as if Id always want to wake up scared in the middleof the night

    A surprise test Yes , mooore please more

    I toss my little bag outside throw the window without anyone realizing it and pardon

    myself to the bathroom This was one damned escape. Well then, what should I do? All alone in the city until

    grandma gets home this wont be fun one bit.Im eating my bento in the little park around the corner of my house . Oh, theres apigeon here here have some bread. This little fellows wing is missing feathersThe moment I noticed that feathers started to grow from inside Unfortunately thesewont last very long.Sorry! . These powers really suck. Everytime I use them , I just endup hurting myself or someone else. For example , this one time in the classroom , I useda fake pen and when I got home everything was erased from my notebook.

    I finished the food grandma made me. Now what? I could go to the arcade , but damnits just too dull being there by my own I wish I could just imagine someone

    I read throw out this new book Blood sharper than swords and ended up realizing itwas getting late so I went home.

    Every time I see the front door I ,it changes color to white, the houses paint.I wonder if there will be a time I wouldnt even distinguish whats real and whats not

    Im wait Im in the park. But didnt i get home already? Eh anyway , I shall getmy ass moving.

    What?

    I cant move! Dammed! Its like this bench was covered in glue. Who in the heavenshell would do this? Ok ok calm down Shin.

    its quite dark.

    its death silent.

    Theres someone behind some bushes. This long dark hair is being controlled by thewind. a beautiful girl .

    such a sad face.

    Hey! Can you help me? Wait dont leave , please , Im stuck.

    She then began walking away from me.Ooh I can move. . .but its pitch black. Huh? Im homeWas that a dream? I havent gotten a normal dream in quite a while. What was all that

    about :| ? The sad face that girl made was even making me feel bad.

    Last night i couldnt possibly sleep after that strange dream. I kept thinking over it

    how could i dream about someone ive never seen before? This is just too strange Andthat girl, just watching me from behind that bush almost crying over something .

    Anyway, ive got over it in a few days and everything returned to normal well thats ifwhen you watch a Bug documentary youll begin to see them crawling on the walls*Chhh* This was awfull. . . it was one of those times i couldnt control that sickeningpower of mine . Now, id just be a crybaby if i cried over being different. Yea, ill just livewith it , ill find someone wholl understand me and wont just say Dude youre crazy, goaway ,Find someone else to tell your fairy tales to . Im full of those !And even if i dont tell anyone about this awful power i posses, itll just screw everything

    up. Its just like it has a damn consciousness! two years ago, just before my parents

    divorced , i started seeing things from inside my head. It was such a bad time forsomething like that maybe, just maybe i couldve stopped them if

    Alright thats enough of that. Id get a bad mood from thinking about it for too long.

    Well, today ive gotta shop for my grandma whos busy sewing for the time being. Ehm,its a free day anyway. The shopping center is quite far thoughI take the train even though i dont quite like being in that underground tunnel , its too

    dark. Its not that im afraid of darkness but i may imagine something unwanted. I dontwant that to happen ya know.

    There shouldve been more people around here well, i guess its better than nothaving where to sit right? These chairs seem quite old even if the train looks awkwardlynew i guess im imagining them like this darned! This one broke. For fs sake , this one

    too! Thats it im standing. Who in the right mind would set wooden chairs in a train? Ohthats right, my stupid mind.eh? The room starts to shake. *Ghiiiuu*What the hell is happening? Am i imagining this too? No, its not possible. It wouldnt

    work if it affected other people too. So what is it then? Oh wait, im alone in the train.. Struggleling my way to the driver throw the shaking rooms, i notice something. Its

    not moving Theres a light bulb barely flashing on the other side of the window. I getcloser to the window to see it properly , yeap its definately there.

    WHAAAAAAT?*Hyyyyyyyyyyyaaaaaaa!!!.*

    *A wild smoker appears*What in the hells name is she doing in the tunnel?How the hell did she get there?And also , i think i know her, but i just dont recall ever meeting such a person no

    matter how much i think about it . Ive never met a drug addict, or someone who lookslike one.

    By the next flash of the light bulb the girl totally dissapears. This just must be a joke orsomething. Noone could just dissapear in a second from a few meters away.

    This aint real! Im imagining! ITS ALL IN MY HEAD!!!!!

    What?Huh?

    What are you imagining?Um , nothing WAIT! Who are you? Where are you?*Cough cough cough* Damn i so much hate ciggars smoke Wasnt that girl

    outside smoking?Im right next to you Baka! She then touches my left arm. What the? I cant see her

    properly. Huh? my head.. AAaaaaghghh my heeeead!!!!

    The moment the mysterious girl takes her hand of me everything is alright.Even thetrain stops shaking around.

    What was that all about?How should i know?... Also, boy, you should introduce yourself before asking me to!

    Ahm, youre right, Sorry. Im Shin Voillet, a not that normal person attending the Artand Music high school.

    I see. Well whats so strange about you?If i let you know, youll regret it. And now, whats your name?And really now, what are

    you? I mean, you have some unusual speed there and when touching me...

    Im Ema , and im just like you made me like.Huh?You just imagined me.Oh god...This is noooot good!!!And why so?You dont know dont you? Everything i imagine dissapears completly after i loose

    track or my head just cant keep them under control And for bigger things, like ahuman being, thatll happen way faster.

    *Hehe*, dont worry about that.???Im living on my own will.... Anyway, whats going on with this train? Is this also my doing?Nope, thats mine.I couldnt smoke while the train was still moving while also talking to

    you, yaknow! ? ! Whaaaat? So you stopped the train just for that reason? Ok ok calm down, im

    just messing with you.I couldnt do this even if i wanted to ...... *pokerface* . Well then lets see whats going on ahead.

    . Walking next to her seems unusual. Something inside is telling me there is noonehere, im all alone , but then i see her just in front of me its just

    Strange...Whaat? Can you read my mind or something?

    Huh? Of course not. Look ahead, the tunnel is blocked by some boulders.Hm.. Then we gotta go backwards. Its not that big of a deal.

    Yeah.

    On the way back to the train the ground starts to shake. I can only guess the peopleoutside are bringing some heavy machines to repair the tunnel. Thats good. I kinda feelrelieved about them charging just minutes after the incident.

    Ema grabs my hand and pulls me back one step. Oh god this head of mine hurtsterribly. Rocks start falling ahead. One of them on my head would be a huge problem

    Still a bit dizzy from the touch i fall down.

    Ouch. Thanks...Lets take shelter in the train untill they dig the tunnel out.Good idea.

    Im siting next to someone who just saved my life...None of us is saying a word. This isawkward.Say...What is it? Saying that she lights a ciggar. Oooh, you want one too dont you?Ah, nope, i dont smoke.

    Well, you never know untill you try...But howd you know? I mean you were *born* just about some time ago...

    Heh.I know more than you could even expect.Like what?You are afraid of darkness.

    Thats not true!!!Ok, ok big boy...

    Some more time passes untill she eventually says :This is going to be a lonely way of living...hm...I was alone for quite a while.But how can you feel loneliness in such a small time?How old are you?15.. why?

    Im one year older... And also, now im in a world the only person im able to talk todestroys my lifes force upon touching me.I cant do anything about that...It wouldnt happen if youd wish for me to be here.Well, I cant help it since Ive never cared for anything else than myselfFall for me!*Heeeeeeeeeeeey! Anyyone in theeeere?*A mans voice interupts our chat. Huh? She dissapearedYeeeees!!!

    One hour later im being questioned by some police officer who offered me lunch. Icouldnt just say no And there wasnt really much to tell. After this , i realise its quietlate Id better hurry with grandmas groceries.The marketplace was full of people I couldnt see 5 meters in front of me and im notthe short type .This will take some time Well, i guess its alright if ill take a taxi home.

    Ah how many loaves of bread did grandma wanted?Ill take two.

    Take three. Huh? . :| *poke* Ema is poking me with a stick.Actually give me three.There you go young man.

    I may seem crazy here talking to myself in the middle of the street but yea whocares?..Ill call a cab. Shes not here anymore. How in the world am i supposed to even talk to this personwho keeps on dissapearing every time i say something. useless...yea, that wasuseless thats why shes not here.Figured it out?Hiiia, you scared me! Are you a guardian angel or something? Youre only there when

    something comes out.Not really, ill only appear when i want to untill now, those were simple coincidences.

    The cab arrives she went inside without even opening the door .And this is the first time im taking a taxi home*Cough cough*

    Are you sick or something? i heard theres a flu going aroundNo no im alright, i just cant stand smoke.

    What ? smoke?oh nevermind nevermind.

    And so ends the day i lost my powers Yea, my thoughts wouldnt become realityanymore.This is strange. Am i Am i like everybody else now?

    Why , well of course not!! :)) For some reason im happy about it. Its the first timesomeone other than grandma doesnt think im utterly crazy and all that But then again,

    she may just not be real, right?Such things have been keeping me from sleeping lately.

    Whatre you doing in the middle of the night in the balcony?I cant sleep i keep thinking.About what?

    Well...are you really, you know, real?Am i not just being crazy talking here to myself?Questions like that wont let me fall asleep.

    Want me to proove you?Huh?

    She jumped down WHAT THE HELL? HEEY!!! Are you alright?I get no reply but i hear knocking at the front door.You may wake someone up! Oh but wait, grandma wont hear it anyway

    Eh, its hopeless anyway...She knocks harder and harder . untill .Whos there in the middle of the night? I hear my grandma going down the stairs

    to answer the door. Now im more confused than ever.

    See?You you can interact with other people!

    Well, yeah. KindaSo how come ur stuck only around me all the time?

    Heh, it doesnt work like youd think. When im talking to someone otherthan you, and myself, they just cant keep their cool for more than one minute or so.Basically, they just refuse speaking. Imagine a games Npc it only has 2 or 3 lines.

    Daamn! Whos real and whos not then? Lets just say nothings real....

    As theres no such thing as SPARE BED in this house of yours,

    ive gotta go sleep somewhere random. Ill see ya tomorrow! *wink*... ...

    I feel i should write down all the days after what happened then but I cant

    remember

    Its not like it wasnt important. Its just that i might have actually been out of stupidtroubles brought by my powers every time i see something that doesnt suit theirpreferences mehAbout a month passed i guess. Ive been randomly chatting with Ema anytime. And i

    mean any . That includes a math test , every lunch break Sometimes i see herstaring in mid air making a sad face the one ive seen in that dream

    Shes stopped looking for me a few days ago and its harder for me to find a ghostthen its for a ghost to dissapear and reapear in front of me.

    ...Damned its too cold. What time is it?..?.?

    *5:00*Huh? I can see some police cars in front of a neighbours house! What the...Hey Ema whats going... , Yea...im talking to myself Everytime there was

    something like this going on she was here. Well i might as well go on a ghost hunt as iwont be able to get any more sleep.

    Heh, whos mad enough to go out at 5 in the morning just to look for someone?I should take my thick coat.After i lock the front door there it goes ...a white falling dot Officially , its Winter!In less than one minute everything around me is frozen. Heh, those police cars will be

    stuck if they stay longer. I cant actually hear anything from over there. Its all deathsilent. Wouldnt this situation actually be different? I mean, i imagine something like :panicated trembeling people talking to some cops or at least SOME COPS! There isnoone there! Yes , i mean it! Theres no one ! One of the cars has an opened door.After closing that cars door i continue my way to the back school yard. Ema used to be

    there after i finished classes. Now that i came to my senes i realised that i have to walka lot Wait , i can see a bus in the distance. Heh, i didnt know buses actually run this early inthe morning.

    Its been some time since ive seen a total empty bus like this one. Normally , i donteven have a sit. Huh? Wooden chairs? Why do i feel strange about these? Well,nevermind. Ive gotta take a ticket from the driver. Huh? I cant! The front of the bus isending with a wall. I cant get to him. Eh, its not that i mind this or anything so f the

    police this time.

    Half way to the school and someone enters. I see a doctors reflexion in the windownext to me. Whats with this guy?Hes just wearing a robe... ITS SNOWING for godsheavens hell!

    Heh, the town looks like it frozed in other way too Theres absolutely noone on thestreets. Noore the shops look any better. All of them are closed. Ive entered ghost town

    or what? This reminds me of a game i wanted to make I didnt have any idea on howto add humans so my town was empty. I didnt get to even make a timezone before i lostmy interest. Oh by the way whats the time? I didnt bring my watch I turn around toask the doctor ..

    Huh?Hes not there!!! How?? WHyy???? We havent reached another station! Those doors

    were closed all this time! What the ?I was imagining Yep , i was just imagining. Theres no way someone could have

    gotten outside this bus by any means other than that door! Ahm , i start to tremble Ilost the powers Ema took them away for me This is getting stranger and strager bythe minute.*Buff*STUPID CHAIR!!!Why did you have to break RIGHT NOW???F%&*^%%^ %$^$*%^!!!!I sit on the chair thats right next to the broken one. A moment later it makes a cracksound and I immediately get up. This This is exactly like that day in the train. After thechairs broke, the tunnel collapsed. Knowing this, I get of the bus at the next station.

    This is Bullsh&*^*!!! Im living a nightmare or something? This aint a dream! After i calm down i start walking to the school yard again.Hm...now that i think about it , i cant imagine things anymore so , what happened in thetrain and in the bus were not caused by me That might be the reason why it affected

    someone other than myself. Could this happen because of Ema? Nope.. when i first timemet her she said something like You just imagined me . So what happened beforewhen i was alone in the train couldnt be her doing.Anyway Im right next to the school. I cant believe i got this right. Ema was underthe news panel taking shelter from the snow.Hoooooy!!!!She begins running.Now this is something i just cant get my head to understand. Ooh cr*p! It was now

    snowing even harder.I follow her inside the school. For some reason the back door was unlocked even

    though this was a free day.This situation reminds me of playing hide and seek in the childhood. What i cant

    remember were the ones i was playing it with. Well, its not that it matters.Ive been running throughout all the places i could think of untill i felt down. Stupid

    weak human body. A demon has his priorities for fs sake!

    *Cough cough*Smoke Its leading to the cafeteria. The door is locked Seriously???Whats the smoke coming out of then? Stupid phisics .This ones a wooden doorEh, What could possibly go right?

    *kick*The door felt on the other side.

    And there she was in the corner of the room.Whatre you doing there baka? ...Outside alone at -4* running from me.

    She takes another cigar out of her pocket.

    I toss the cigar on the ground .(o_0)Lets go home, Ill freeze to death here,

    ...alright.

    The snow hasnt stopped any bit...Here, have my umbrella...But..Just take it already!

    We havent said anything for some time

    Shin?Ah?Have you fallen for me yet?... Have you??

    This is an embarrassing question to ask

    Lets share the umbrella.

    ...but its not big enough Youll disappear for good if we do share it.

    Shes coming closer.

    Hoooy! Waaaait!!!

    Well, that was said too late.

    I was pretty scared at that time...but it felt nice. The cold was suddenly washed away together with my fear. Heh , I

    wouldve wished for that walk to last forever....to bad a little while later my head started hurting. I didnt mention it. Or maybe i

    couldnt mention it .

  • 7/27/2019 An imaginary lover

    12/13

    When we were almost there, the umbrella felt on the ground.Huh?I then saw Emas body being taken apart by the wind like it was paper-made.

    .She was gone forever. I feel like someone planted that thought inside my head, but iknew it was true. I may have sweared too much at that time. Walking to my room, icouldnt think of anything. Everything was plain. I was looking at nothing.

    I closed the door and sit in the armchair near the window.Huh? i still have her cigar Ema was real after all that. I might as well find out

    whats so *good* about it that made her addicted. I light it with grandmas matches.*Cough cough*

    Heh, its making me cry

    This is Bullsh^&*%If you knew youll disappear why in the name of gods cousin, satan , did you still want

    to walk with me? Baaaaaka!!!

    Damn i made a mess on the table. Eh, whateverI take a peek on the big clock on the wall out of habit.Huuuh??????Its 5 freakin AM !!!But it was 5am when i went outside!Now i can no longer understand anything. The clocks working too. Grandmas not

    home. Her alarm clock shows 5am too my watch *5:09*F***!

    My head starts spinning. I can no longer see properly . Im feeling as all the strenghtin my body is being sucked away I fall on the floor and can no longer move.

    Heh, so this is what Ema meant by It would end everything .Is it that im dying right now?Eh, this worlds empty anyway I guess im going with you.

    Im curious to see satans face after spitting his feet.

    Opening my eyes im being blinded out from a light bulb

    Huh? Im in a white room.Theres a beautiful garden outside. I guess im not going to see you satan.

    Hm
