Trollhunters: Becoming

Akiridion-5

Aja's eyes snapped open and shot out of her bed. Aja looked around her room on Akiridion-5 and gasped. She looked at her hands and tried to comprehend what was happening.

"I-I don't understand," Aja stammered. "I was in Arcadia. How am I here?"

Suddenly, Krel burst into her room, a panicked expression plastered onto his face.

"Sister!"

"Krel!" Aja responded, running up to her brother.

"Aja, please tell me that this isn't a dream," Krel breathed out, holding his sister's hands.

"I think it's real, brother," Aja replied, looking around and back towards her brother. "Jim did it. He rewound time!"

"If that's so, then why do we remember?" Krel asked.

"And how far back are we?" Aja added.

"Ah, there you are! Varvatos Vex is highly confused!" Vex exclaimed, bursting through the door.

"Vex! You remember too!" Krel said.

"So the Lake boy managed to go back in time," Vex noted, looking around. "But I was under the assumption the amulet would take our memories from us."

"Apparently not," Aja responded.

"We should get in contact with Jim," Krel stated, patting his pants down. "Kleb! I forgot we don't have phones anymore!"

"So, how do we get in contact with the humans?" Vex questioned.

"Simple. I'll just make something," Krel brushed off. "It might take me a while, though."

"Shouldn't we also address how far back we are? Because if we're far back enough...."

Aja trailed off, and Krel's eyes widened in realization.

"Mama....Papa....they'd be alive," Krel gasped.

The three Akiridions left Aja's room with hast and ran among the corridors. They ran into the throne room, where their parents spent most of their time. At the head of the room stood Fialkov Tarron, their father, and Coranda Tarron, their mother.

Aja, Krel, and Vex all froze at the sight of them. The Queen and King noticed their presence.

"Aja? Krel? Vex? What brings you all here?" Fialkov questioned. That set the siblings into motion, and they raced towards their parents, engulfing them in tight hugs.

"What's the matter, my children? Coranda asked with concern etched into her voice. Aja and Krel froze at that question before Aja began scrambling for answers.

"I, uh, we, had a terrible nightmare!" Aja lied. "It wasn't good."

"You both had the same nightmare?" Fialkov inquired.

"It's a sibling thing, Papa," Krel answered, slinging an arm around his sister's shoulders.

"I'm sorry you had bad dreams," Coranda said gently, placing a hand on both of her children's shoulders.

"Well, it seems the nightmare might be over," Aja replied, sighing into her mother's touch.

Suddenly, a few Akiridon Amabsaadors walked into the room, drawing the attention of the royals.

"We have a meeting," Fialkov stated. "How about after, we come to find you both, and we all have a nice walk around Akiridion?"

"That sounds great," Krel smiled.

"Lovely," Coranda said. "Now, off you go."

Aja and Krel hesitantly made their way to the door, Vex followed, but before he existed, he turned and gave the royals a happy grin.
