Paper Moons & Silent Thunder

by Lamaryen Clark

Starring: Otani Natsumi • Tajima Makoto • Iida Miki • Tashiro Yuriko

Chapter 1 — The Girl Who Outran the Morning

The alarm didn’t ring.

The sun did.

It punched through Natsumi’s curtains like an accusation.

“…WHAT TIME IS IT—”

7:42.

School started at 8.

Her soul briefly left her body.

Chaos exploded.

Uniform half-buttoned. Sock missing. Toast clenched between her teeth like a battle flag.

She sprinted through the neighborhood, wind slicing past her ears.

Dogs barked. Old ladies gasped. One cyclist nearly cried.

“MOVE MOVE MOVE—”

The train doors began to close.

“Nope!”

She dove.

SLAM.

Made it.

Also headbutted something very solid.

“…Ow.”

She looked up.

Tajima Makoto.

Tall. Calm. Annoyingly composed. The human equivalent of a perfectly straight line.

“You treat life like parkour,” he said flatly.

She pointed at him with her toast. “And you treat life like a waiting room.”

He handed her bag.

“You dropped this. Again.”

“…Stop saving me. It ruins my drama.”

The train rattled forward.

Their shoulders brushed.

Neither moved.

Outside, the sky shimmered strangely.

Like glass.

Like something pressing from the other side.

Neither of them noticed.

Yet.

Chapter 2 — The Rumor Collector

Miki appeared at lunch like a caffeinated ghost.

“I have NEWS.”

“That’s never good,” Natsumi said.

Miki slammed a notebook down. Pages filled with scribbles, arrows, red circles.

“Students. Disappearing.”

“…Transfer students?”

“No.”

She leaned close.

“Erased.”

Makoto sipped his juice. “You’re dramatic.”

“YOU’RE BORING,” she fired back.

She flipped a page.

Empty space.

“There was a name here yesterday. I wrote it myself.”

“…Maybe you forgot?” Natsumi said gently.

“I don’t forget,” Miki whispered.

Then Yuriko entered.

The room quieted automatically.

She moved like a perfectly drawn line of ink.

Student council president.

Top grades.

Never late.

Chapter 1 — The Girl Who Outran the Morning

The alarm didn’t ring.

The sun did.

It punched through Natsumi’s curtains like an accusation.

“…WHAT TIME IS IT—”

7:42.

School started at 8.

Her soul briefly left her body.

Chaos exploded.

Uniform half-buttoned. Sock missing. Toast clenched between her teeth like a battle flag.

She sprinted through the neighborhood, wind slicing past her ears.

Dogs barked. Old ladies gasped. One cyclist nearly cried.

“MOVE MOVE MOVE—”

The train doors began to close.

SLAM.

Made it.

Also headbutted something very solid.

Tajima Makoto.

Tall. Calm. Annoyingly composed. The human equivalent of a perfectly straight line.

Outside, the sky shimmered strangely.

Like glass.

Like something pressing from the other side.

Neither of them noticed.

Yet.

Chapter 2 — The Rumor Collector

Miki appeared at lunch like a caffeinated ghost.

“I have NEWS.”

“That’s never good,” Natsumi said.

Miki slammed a notebook down. Pages filled with scribbles, arrows, red circles.

“Students. Disappearing.”

“…Transfer students?”

“No.”

She leaned close.

“Erased.”

Makoto sipped his juice. “You’re dramatic.”

“YOU’RE BORING,” she fired back.

She flipped a page.

Empty space.

“There was a name here yesterday. I wrote it myself.”

“…Maybe you forgot?” Natsumi said gently.

“I don’t forget,” Miki whispered.

Then Yuriko entered.

The room quieted automatically.

She moved like a perfectly drawn line of ink.

Student council president.

Top grades.

Never late.

Never loud.

Never wrong.

She met Natsumi’s eyes.

Smiled.

But it didn’t reach her pupils.

It felt like she knew something heavy.

Something buried.

Something waiting.

Chapter 3 — The Empty Desk

The next morning.

A desk sat beside Makoto’s.

Dusty.

Unused.

Wrong.

“Who sits there?” Natsumi asked.

No one answered.

She looked around.

Everyone acted normal.

“Makoto?”

“…I don’t remember,” he said.

“You literally talked to someone yesterday—”

“I don’t remember,” he repeated.

Like the words hurt.

The classroom clock ticked louder than it should.

Like a heartbeat.

Or a countdown.

Chapter 4 — After School Static

They stayed late.

Because curiosity is stronger than fear.

Bad survival instinct.

Excellent plot catalyst.

Storage room.

Old yearbooks.

Miki flipped one open.

Every face blurred.

Except four.

Natsumi.

Makoto.

Miki.

Yuriko.

“…That’s not normal,” Natsumi whispered.

The lights cut out.

Pitch black.

Then footsteps.

Dragging.

Wet.

A voice:

“…why do you still remember me…”

Makoto grabbed Natsumi’s wrist.

“Don’t let go.”

Her heart hammered.

Not fear.

Something else.

Something warmer.

Something louder.

Chapter 5 — Yuriko’s Truth

“My sister was erased,” Yuriko said quietly.

The words landed like stones.

“Everyone forgot her. Parents. Teachers. Records.”

“…But you didn’t,” Miki whispered.

“I couldn’t.”

She clenched her fists.

“And now it’s happening again.”

Outside, the sky flickered like a dying screen.For half a second, the school looked abandoned.

Cracked windows.

Vines.

Empty.

Then normal.

Makoto exhaled.

“…So we’re next.”

Natsumi smiled.

Not scared.

Defiant.

“Then we fight.”

Chapter 6 — Names on the Wall

They began writing everything down.

Names.

Memories.

Photos.

Sticky notes everywhere.

Like a conspiracy nest.

If reality wanted to delete them, they’d anchor themselves with ink.

Miki called it “memory armor.”

Natsumi called it “aggressive journaling.”

Makoto called it “a headache.”

Yuriko just watched them.

And for the first time…

she didn’t feel alone.

Chapter 7 — The First Glitch

Makoto vanished mid-sentence.

One blink.

Gone.

Chair empty.

Silence.

“Makoto?” Natsumi laughed nervously.

No one responded.

Her notebook.

His name fading.

Letters peeling away.

Like wet paint.

“No.”

She grabbed a marker and slammed it back onto the page.

TAJIMA MAKOTO.

Hard. Deep. Furious.

“YOU DON’T GET TO TAKE HIM.”

The air cracked.

Like glass breaking.

And he reappeared.

Falling back into his seat.

“…Did I miss something?”

She hugged him.

Hard.

Too hard.

“…You’re crushing my ribs.”

“SHUT UP YOU ALMOST DIED.”

He didn’t push her away.

Chapter 8 — The Thing Behind the Sky

They finally saw it.

On the rooftop.

At sunset.

The sky tore open.

Behind it…

Something vast.

White.

Endless.

Like blank paper.

Like the world wasn’t a world at all.

Just a draft.

And something was erasing mistakes.

A voice echoed:

“Nonessential characters will be removed.”

“…We’re characters?” Miki whispered.

“…In a story,” Yuriko said.

“…Then rewrite it,” Natsumi said.

Chapter 9 — Memory War

Reality attacked.

Photos disappeared.

Voices distorted.

Teachers forgot them mid-conversation.

Hallways looped endlessly.

Makoto faded again.

This time worse.

Half transparent.

“…Guess I’m not popular with the universe,” he joked weakly.

“Don’t you dare joke,” Natsumi snapped, eyes wet.

She carved their names into the rooftop with a box cutter.

Deep.

Permanent.

OTANI NATSUMI

TAJIMA MAKOTO

IIDA MIKI

TASHIRO YURIKO

“If the world’s paper,” she said, breath shaking,

“then we carve ourselves into stone.”

The sky cracked.

Harder.

Like it was angry.

Chapter 10 — We Exist

The white void descended.

A giant eraser.

Literally.

Absurd.

Terrifying.

Trying to wipe them away.

They held hands.

All four.

“Scared?” Makoto asked.

“Terrified,” she said.

He squeezed her fingers.

“Good. Means we’re alive.”

They screamed their names together.

Over and over.

The sound became weight.

Memory.

Gravity.

The eraser shattered.

Like chalk snapping.

Light exploded.

Then silence.

Epilogue — Morning Again

Alarm rang.

Normal.

Sunlight gentle.

Natsumi blinked awake.

School day.

Ordinary.

Suspiciously ordinary.

She ran late as usual.

Crashed into someone on the train.

Makoto.

“…You again,” he sighed.

She grinned.

Behind him, Miki waved a notebook.

Yuriko smiled softly.

All four together.

Still here.

Still remembered.

Sky calm.

But sometimes…

if you look closely…

tiny cracks shimmer up there.

Like the world is still fragile.

Like paper.

Like it could tear.

But for now?

They exist.

And that’s enough.
