(This is still part of the story line I forgot to mention the date of the current line, it was 12/20 when they arrived at the nether castle. It is now 12/22.)

Guts' Pov:

it was raining magma in the nether (just imagine it rains upside down magma)

I was taking a walk through the mythical forest of the nether, I saw someone else walking towards me (direction of the castle) I stopped walking and continued watching the person he seemed familiar, but I couldn't quite place my finger on it. I saw as this tall male approached closer, just as I was about to see who this man I woke up.

I checked the time on my pocket watch. 

it quietly ticked and ticked and ticked, I read the time on it; 6:21 am

I got up and got ready for the day, I had no idea where Marshall was, he must been in the bathroom I thought. I took my chance and ran outside I ran into the woods and made sure nobody followed me.

I walked through the crimson forest as it mixed into the warped, blue and red both conjoined as one. I started getting this feeling of Deja vu as I walked farther in. Then I saw him, the man from my dream, I couldn't tell who he was, I got scared. I ran back to where the forests first conjoined, I tripped and nearly fell into a pool of lava down below, but I was caught. as I realized who the man was, I stared at him. It felt like hours of hovering then some invisible force pulled me up. this invisible entity held me up so that I was steady on my feet.

"KIRI! WAIT FOR-"

"YOU! WHY ARE YOU HERE?!?!"

obnoxious.

"You're the damn bitch who almost exposed us!"

"Where are you going?"

"....to the nether castle."

"I could take you there. I'm heading back over there anyways."

"tch....fine....thank you."

"Damn bitch..."  I heard Alfredo mumble.

we got to the end of the forest and the start of the castle wall, as we walked around to the entrance, I realized that I never asked why they were going to the castle. 

I took my chance to ask.

"So why are you heading to the nether castle?..."

"Oh, uh because.... I got invited to the Christmas party."

"Oh ok..."

"Well, we're here. I'll go find Marshall...."

As we parted I noticed someone's presence, as if they were staring, or perhaps looking all over, it was as if somebody was flickering a light switch on and off. 

I walked back to the room Marshall was staying in.

I gently open the door.

the figure of a body was laying on the floor. it was charred and smoke was coming from it. I stood there; eyes peeled wide open. I slowly and yet shakily walked towards the body. I knelt down beside it and stared. I felt tears fill my eyes, my vision became blurry. I heard mumbled voices, they were all either screaming or in shock. I couldn't tell what they were saying.


Then I felt as if somebody put their hand on my shoulder making me snap back to reality. 

I looked behind me and saw no one, but, at the door the royal family and my father were there, they all seemed to be panicked, just then I saw Alfredo there as well, staring just as before.

I went to the door and the rest of them rushed into the room Marshall had stayed in. I ran back outside, yet I did not realize Alfredo stayed outside the room. I ran and ran until I entered the forest. 

"I lost another one.... why...why... why why why why WHY?!?!?!!!!"

I screamed as loud as I could. the same things were happening, the same from when I was six.

~The next day~

I woke up around noon, and was about to knock on Marshall's door, but I remembered the event of yesterday, all my emotions faded once again, I locked myself in the room just as I had yesterday. 

I planned on staying in my room all day like yesterday but, I heard a knock on my window, I checked and there was nothing at all. plus, it was four stories, and I was on the third. 

just then, my window flung open and almost hit my face. I tried to close it, but it felt like there was something forcing it open. I was finally able to close it.
