—A

girl was running.

In the

middle of a dense forest, wearing an out of place dress, a girl ran as fast as

she could. Constantly caught in branches and roots, the girl could barely hide

herself within the torn dress, with her thighs exposed.

Even

her originally bluish, gray hair became sticky from sweat and dirt.

However,

the girl didn’t pay that any attention, for the sake of escaping her pursuers.

「Oi! Was

she there!?」

「No, not

over here!」

She

could hear her pursuers’ voices, closer than she expected.

The

girl hurried and jumped into a nearby grassy plain, where she steadied her

heavy breathing, in order to hide.

「She

can’t have gotten too far yet! Search every nook and cranny! Just don’t harm

her! 」

「Understood!」

The

pursuers’ voices began to fade away. The girl began to run off in the opposite

direction.

After

running for a while, she came across a large river. With the stress and fatigue

from being chased, along with dehydration, the girl decided to take a small

rest.

The

girl scooped up some river water and brought it to her mouth. Whether she didn’t

want to ruin her stomach or was worried, because of the transparency, she was

nearing her limit.

With

both hands, she continued to drink the water.

The

girl began to relax by the riverside after the number of scoops exceeded 10.

But she

couldn’t stay carefree for long. She had to run away before the pursuers came.

With

that thought, the girl forced her aching body to stand.

At that

moment—

「There

she is!」

「!!」

They

found her!

The

pursuers were coming.

The

girl, in a panic, began to run away. From the unstable footing and fatigue of

continuously running, the girl lost her balance and—

—Splash—

Fell

into the river.

「!!Princess!」

The

pursuer shouted out to her, the princess of the country, as she was swept away

in the current.

Her tired

body could do little to resist as the current pushed her away. Furthermore, by

some bad luck, the current became even stronger, crashing her into one of the

rocks along the riverbed.

Collisions,

fatigue, and suffocation. On the verge of fainting, the girl was satisfied.

Just

before losing conciseness, the girl though to herself.

「(–Ah,

I wanted to fall in love once, before I die…)」

No

matter what the girl thought or what the pursuer shouted, the current didn’t

stop.

The girl’s body was washed away in the current—.

(TL note: The general idea is there, even if the main specifics aren’t completely accurate)
