(3RD POV)
(Lumine's Dream)
[Lumine slowly opened her eyes. She felt a burning heat around her.]
Lumine: "W-Where am i!?"

[And, Lumine looked around her. She realized that she is standing in a room full of flames.]

Lumine: "W-What is this place!? What happened!?"

Lumine: "W-What is this place!? What happened!?"

*BRUAGH!* *BRUAGH!*
[Lumine is surprised by the burning ruins of wood falling from above.]
Lumine: "D-Damn it! I-I have to run away from this place!"

*BRUAGH!*
[Lumine tries to run from that place. But, every time she run away, ruins always fell in front of her. And, she had completely run out of directions to escape.]
Lumine: "Damn it! I guess i have to-"

[Lumine's words was cut short when she saw something, or rather someone leaning weakly against a piece of wood.]
Lumine: "No... No way!"

[And, Lumine saw a figure that she knew, that she loved... Sitting weak with a wounded body and full of blood.]

Musashi: "....."
Lumine: "MUSASHI!"

[Seeing that, Lumine tried to open a path by clearing the rubble between them.]
Lumine: "Hold on, Musashi! Hold- OW!"

[Lumine's hands burned as they removed the burning logs. But, it didn't stop her.]
Lumine: "I'll... I'll save you!"
Musashi: "....Hehe~"

[Even though they were a little far away, Lumine could still hear Musashi's weak chuckle.]
Musashi: "It's no use... I can't even move my body... Even my finger."

[Lumine keep trying to remove those  rubbles. She cannot give up, not until she saves Musashi.]
Lumine: "Mu..."

[Suddenly, Lumine's voice couldn't come out, and Lumine grabbed her own neck to make sure her neck is okay.]
Lumine: "Mu... shi..."
Musashi: "To fight an expert swordsman like Kojiro... Is truly a honor for me."

[Still, Lumine's voice could not come out. And now...]
Lumine: (M-My body... I-I can't move!!)

[Lumine's tears began to fall. She kept trying to move to save Musashi. But it's all in vain...]
Lumine: (No... No!)
Musashi: "But.. I have no regret... I have come this far to help her... If my death can help her to move forward... I'm fine with it."
Lumine: (No! I can't let you die!!)
