Anne's Pov
"Marcy, how long till we get to wherever we're going?"
I asked, looking down at the ground. Marcy replied back saying that it would take a few more hours to get there and I let out a big groan of boredom throughout the ride.
As I looked at marcy, I realized that it's been three days since we first met each other. It's actually surprising since I already felt a lot safer with her even though we haven't known each other for that long.
She was just this sweet girl who loves to discover new things she hasn't seen before. It's kind of refreshing to know that I don't have to wonder here alone anymore. I smiled at the thought before looking up at the sun.
"Hey marcy, it's really nice to know that there are others like me here. It felt so lonely when everyone completely looked at me like some sort of monster. I didn't think I would have survived any longer if you hadn't arrived"
Marcy looked at me while I looked back to her. Her eyes glittered and it gave me a comforting feeling in the chest as I stare at her beautiful onyx eyes.
"I feel the same way too anne. Seeing other humans gave me hope that maybe I could see how my birth place actually looked like for a change" she said,
Suddenly, marcy had a stormy look on her eyes before she faced the opposite direction away from me. I asked what was wrong but she ignored it saying that it was nothing that I should be concerned of.
"Hey, it's okay to tell me you know..."
"Yeah, I know... I'm just thinking about something unimportant, that's all"
She said. We went silent for a few seconds before I brought up another topic to remove the awkwardness that surrounded the atmosphere. We managed to change the topic and talk about it until we made it to the place.
It wasn't our real destination, but we needed marcy's bird to rest up for another few days or so before flying out again.
Good thing there was a nice place for us to sleep overnight and marcy booked us in using a special card.
I think it's like a credit card that adults back home use to pay with.
"Enjoy your stay"
The little servant frog said before leaving our room. I noticed that there were two bedrooms next to each other, a living room, kitchen and two toilets inside our own rooms. It felt so cozy and warm that I let myself sink onto the couch while marcy went ahead and changed her clothes.
And yes... she brought her pyjamas on her mission.
"Anne, you can borrow some of my clothes if you want"
"Are you sure?" I asked.
She nodded and lended me another set of her pyjamas to me and went ahead and changed into it. Once I was done, I stepped outside and spotted marcy sitting at the table writing something on her book.
I looked over her shoulder to see what she was writing and saw many facts and knowledge about animals, creatures and amphibians inside of it. Marcy noticed me and asked if I had any interesting facts about myself and I quickly denied saying that I had none.
"Oh come on, everyone must have at least one interesting fact about themselves. Whether it's something incredible, embarrassing or even just about how they look"
"Well in all honesty, I don't know if there's any interesting fact about myself"
I replied. Marcy took a few moments to think about something before she started writing on her book again. I took, yet another look and read the words she wrote.
Beautiful, sweet, kind-hearted and brave...
My heart started to beat fastly while my head kept repeating the same words over and over again. In that exact moment I felt my cheeks burning up and I quickly pulled myself away from marcy.
"Hey are you okay?" Marcy asked, standing up from her seat.
Of course I was okay, but that changed when I felt my whole body being electrocuted. Marcy immediately knelt beside me to try and calm me down but it didn't work. Afterwards, my whole entire body started to feel numb inside and I lost all my connections to both my arms and legs.
It only took a few minutes for the weird sensation around my body to ease down a little before I gave one last look at marcy before I dozed off to sleep.
The next day...
The next morning, I woke up in terrible pain. After what happened yesterday, my whole body was feeling numb and I could barely move my legs to the living room. Unfortunately, I happened to embarrass myself in front of marcy by falling onto the ground as my good morning...
"It seems like you still have those side effects since last night. Here let me help you get up"
Marcy said as she grabbed one of my arm and placed it over her shoulder. We slowly made our way to the table and ate our breakfast as usual. Though we were still clueless about what happened yesterday, we didn't waste much time and continued our journey to newtopia.

"Does it still feel numb?"
"A little, but I'm able to feel my hands again" I replied while showing her my hands moving.
It was still weird that it occured just yesterday. What made this weird feeling to even start anyway?
My head was hurting so badly just thinking about it, but no matter what it was... I just hope I'll never get to experience it again.
"Do you think it's got to do with the box?" Marcy curiously asked.
I looked at her and asked why she'd think that it would be the box that have caused my body to do what it did. She shrugged and said that it was just one of her theories, but she still wasn't quite sure about the real cause of it.
"Maybe we can find something when we arrive to newtopia. That city is full of histories and lores that might be able to crack this mystery for us"
"It may also give me an answer to how I can return home!" I said in realization.
She clicked her tongue and winked at me before saying that I was right. The thought of coming home motivated me to keep moving forward and ignore the throbbing pain that was happening inside my body.
As I looked at the morning sun, I pictured my parents and myself meeting again back on earth. The happy tears I was holding onto fell down my cheeks as I smiled. Good thing marcy wasn't paying much attention to me, I would've felt embarrassed if she saw me in this state.
Looking at my bag, I noticed that I didn't zip it properly and saw the box sitting inside. Now that I was looking at it, I noticed that the colour of the pink and green gem were starting to fade away too. The only colour that turned grey entirely was the blue gem after I opened the box.
I wondered about it but marcy took my attention away from it, getting my head to immediately forget about it easily.
"So... have you ever tasted bugs before?"
"Oh my god, please don't tell me you-"
Marcy looked at me for a few seconds before smiling at me. Oh no.
"I have"
