[Mara's POV]
- "It's... Magic." Entrapta exclaimed, wide eyed.
The girls didn't seem to know who she was. They were startled and confused as to why she was in here with us.
- "Girls, this is Miss. Dryl, a tech teacher at this school." I explain.
- "Just call me Entrapta! I don't mind, since I'm not much older than you annndddd we're going to have to get to know each other so that this experiment can work!" she cackled.
Her excitement made the girls look like they were about to jump out of their seats and run away, especially Catra, who's tail was sticking straight up.
- "Don't worry girls, Entrapta is harmless. I've brought her in so that we can start examining how everything works and is connected." I gesture to Entrapta to present her demonstration.
- "Oh- I forgot my presentation. I guess I'm just going to have to wing it," she squawked, her abnormally long, purple hair, (which was tied into pigtails) started forming into her demonstration instead, "I have been working with Mara since this morning to figure out the intermolecular bonds between her magic and the visions that her eyes stored. I was able to connect her to a visualising device which projected the dream in high quality graphics. I've got the whole thing recorded on this CD, if you would like to watch it!"
- "Adora, you don't have to say yes. This is your choice." I reason with her.
- "No. Let Entrapta play the recordings," Adora said flatly, but held Catra's hand slightly harder, "I promised Catra that I would explain everything and we would do this together."
- "Adora you didn't promise. You don't have to do this."
- "But I want to."
- "Very well then," I continue, "Give me the CD Entrapta."
As I put in the CD, my laptop screen glows a shimmery, ocean blue. I turn the screen towards the girls, so that they could watch the visions I got.
The CD began playing.
- "As you can see," Entrapta described, "The footage is very vivid in a few particular scenes, however the audio quality was really difficult to correct, because of how incredibly low it was. Adora, did you hear these visions perfectly?"
- "Yes. But it wasn't like a regular dream. The sound came from somewhere inside me." Adora answered, shifting uncomfortably in her seat.
- "Fascinating. I was able to use my knowledge of coding to transfer the available audio into a different format. This allowed me to make the volume louder and the sound more clear as of this point forward! HAHA!"
"If she stays here, Sarah will find her again and- ...her. Adora isn't like Adam, Derek, you know-... isn't even our child! How are we meant to- ...?"
- "The audio is still corrupted at points because I wasn't able to fully hack in and translate the memories word for word, since I would only likely, have one chance to do this. But you guys remember what was said, and Catra you get the idea! I mainly focused on the visuals but, something in the next scene caught my attention!" Entrapta squeaks.
