Dream System Of Seven Sins

A normal person's go-to reaction in such a moment was to run hastily away lest one get crushed by the falling object. Alas, neither Eevie nor Mona reacted in such a manner.

Eevie stood where she was without even a twitch of fear on her face as if accepting death by crushing was how she was going to leave this world.

Mona though acted even more leisurely than Eevie if that was even possible. He curled into himself and used his hind leg to scratch his head. His face scrunched up cutely like this was the most comfortable thing ever. Perhaps one could ascribe the lack of his fear to the fact that he was merely a cat and had no clue what was really happening.

The female customer remained in a trance seated on the sofa. The poor soul was probably going to perish without knowing what hit her. Perhaps this was why neither Mona nor Eevie was going to escape? They felt sorry for causing the innocent woman's lives so they stayed as a sign of solidarity? Although one suspect that could quite possibly be the truth.

The falling object came closer and closer. Upon a closer inspection, one could see that the top, bottom and the four walls of the object was semi-transparent. It felt like one was looking through a rectangular box surrounded by all sides with dark blue tinted glass.

The box was the size of a small room, incidentally, by design or by luck, it was the same size as Eevie's office in the sense that the four sides of the box lined up perfectly with the four walls of the office. In other words, it would be a very tight squeeze.

Instead of a loud boom, the box landed with a soft shuffle. Instead of being crushed, Eevie merely phased through the room. When she opened her eyes, the room was how it was, everything was where it should be but there was simply a blue hue in front of everything. It was as if she was looking at everything with a blue-coloured glasses on.

However, there were notable exceptions. For one, Eevie's own self was her natural human color and Mona maintained his l.u.s.trous sheen. It was as if the world was split into two dimensions, the inside, that wasn't coloured in blue and the rest was the outside.

Another handy way of differentiating between the two was everything inside could still move freely, exemplified by how Mona stretched and bounded out of the blue box, disappearing into God knows where.

Everything outside seemed frozen in time. The second-hand of the clock on the wall had stopped moving. Even the lady on the sofa seemed more frozen in space.

Eevie turned towards the other conspicuous feature in the box, a futon of sorts that was next to one of the walls. A thick and fluffy pile of mattress was lying on top of it. It was definitely inside the box based on the eggshell white color of the mattress and the fact it was rising and falling steadily like someone was asleep underneath it.
