Chapter Text
Life on the Island was peaceful for those who still lived there. Atsumu was unsure where most of the inhabitants were currently, having roamed away from where Sakusa was tending to his garden early this morning. It was a warm spring day, not long since the final chills of winter had crept back into the shadows. He moved across the sand, feeling the warmth seeping into his toes. Atsumu was now on the far side of the island, he flopped down on the sand, wiping his sweaty brow and stretched out to take rest his eyes.
Atsumu woke with a start to water lapping his feet and the deep orange hues of the remaining dregs of sunlight on the horizon. He pulled his feet back from the rising tide and stood up, dusting the sand from his clothing and turned to look along the beach towards home. It was then he spotted a glint of something reflecting in the light, curiosity piqued, he moved towards it, and tried to pull the silver handle of something from the sand. The object would not budge, causing Atsumu to sigh and start digging.
Darkness had taken hold by the time he had shifted enough sand to uncover the item, finally pulling out the silver item, that was glowing slightly at the end. Atsumu reached towards the light, and felt himself launched backwards into the sand, and everything around him vanished.
