## Plot

After almost being lifted to the ceiling by an unknown force, the characters realize that something extremely dangerous could be happening at the airport.

For this reason, they decide to leave the place quickly. Then, Yukiko Hokamura must go to the residence where she will stay for a few days before continuing to Easter Island. Yukiko tells Anton that she claims to have seen strange things since she got on that plane and that she thought it was just hallucinations brought on by the stress of the trip or something but realizing that the boy also saw such a situation, she fears that something more serious may be going on.

At one point Yukiko realizes how tremendously hot it is and recalls with horror that she only brought winter clothes. Anton tells her that it is almost 40 degrees that day.

Both were going to go their separate ways but Anton asks her where he should go and the girl tells him that the place where he is going to stay is in the center of the city. The young man tells her that he lives with some friends renting an apartment in the same area, so they go together. He also tells him that a few days ago, he thought he saw something striking and that no one else noticed it. Anton was afraid that he was going crazy but now he has a problem to solve regarding his work situation.

As they were walking along, a disheveled-looking man approaches the boy and asks for help, as he claims not to remember anything. Anton turns him down thinking he was a drunk coming to ask for money but the man insists and follows them. This man starts talking about an explosion he was a victim of and that he is a survivor, but the boys think he is lying as they look at the street and there seems to be nothing unusual. Later, as they both walk away, the man tells them that he knows they have seen strange things before because he has seen them too and proves to them that he is not drunk or on drugs. He asks them to trust him because he knows what he is talking about. It only took a few seconds of hesitation for him to get their attention when he finished mentioning that. This man says he doesn't remember his name but they can call him "Abstracto", a word he saw in a paragraph on a page of a newspaper that was lying on the floor.

Then Abstracto, begins to talk about the existence of creatures that inhabit a plane to which we can not access but have access to it for a long time. Anton sees it as a joke and starts to play along pretending to believe him and begins to ask more detailed questions to see how far he can go. But Yukiko remembers how months ago, before traveling, she began to feel stalked by something in broad daylight. When she turns to see what the feeling was, a shadowy humanoid figure is seen for a few seconds and then quickly disappears behind the corner of a building. Suddenly, the man seems to have completely changed from his quiet and enigmatic personality to an active and outgoing one, as if in a moment he had become a different man.

Suddenly, a group of people in the street start fighting each other and Yukiko asks Anton if that could be an anomaly, to which he replies that the only anomaly would be if people in that city didn't fight over just anything.

Finally, one of the men who was in the fight seems to be possessed and decides to attack the group. Before this burly man pounced on them, Yukiko notices that the man seems to have a demonic figure emanating from his back that is possibly controlling him, this entity has bulging eyes and a huge mouth, similar to that of the fish that inhabit the deepest parts of the sea and usually look ungraceful to humans. Then, Anton asks Abstracto if this man is possessed by those creatures he was talking about before.
