Synopsis
"We turn back time, when best friends Nero and Agnia were still smol beans, watching their favorite TV show. If they had known dreams can influence our future massively!"

Plot
Agnia reminisces her old memories in grief and regret. In an abstract representation, Agnia sings in a room of endless emptiness.

As small children, best friends Nero and Agnia begin to watch their favorite television program Redstone Girl, awestruck. They begin to play make-believe with their toys, Agnia pretending to be Redstone Girl and Nero another character. Then, in Chemicals, Agnia stands frozen, Nero and Laila looking at her.

Restless, the night after playtime, Nero and Agnia manufacture weapons and armor in the workshop, to create a more lifelike cosplay. Meanwhile, a young Laila is being attacked by a zombie horde. Rushing to the rescue on a railway, Nero and Agnia leap off and saves Laila from the zombies.

In her mind, Agnia is surrounded by particles. After Nero recovers Agnia in Chemicals, she remembers watching him sleep, her in regret of her actions. She then remembers the experiment which fused her genes with redstone, and her friends' consoling --- then when everything went wrong.

In her mind, Agnia is in an endless stage, Nero on the conflicting side, dancing with her Undead miners. it is revealed she is distracting herself from her own torment and anger, when she was turned, when Nero "betrayed" her, when her friends shunned her.

She sheds a tear.
