... !?
[Souji wakes and finds himself huddled in a crouch in the middle of an unfamiliar street. The rain pours down, soaking through his clothes. He blinks, taking in his foggy surroundings, and half-remembers something whispered in the mental haze:]
... the fog will come after several days of rain ...
[Souji shakes his head, shivering, and slowly climbs to his feet. He mentally questions himself:]
Is this ... another dream? [The scene before him is awfully reminiscent of a dream he had that first night in Inaba, except there's no voice here spurring him onward, asking cryptic questions about seeking the truth. There's only the noisy rain pouring down on him, and an eerily deserted street in what's clearly a city, but a city he doesn't recognize.]
But ... this doesn't make any sense. [This doesn't feel like a dream, and Souji doesn't feel like he's asleep, either. Souji remembers sitting on the train, headed home to the city, staring out the window, ignoring the incoming text messages on his cell phone. He remembers seeing the skyline slowly approach from off in the distance -
But he doesn't remember arriving, or disembarking from the train.]
I don't know how I got here. [And there's no one else immediately around for Souji to question, either.
The boy's ponderations are interrupted by a sudden - and uncomfortably close - electrical groundstrike. Startled, he picks a direction and sets off jogging. It's become quite clear that the only thing he can do at this point is proceed forward.]
