        "Tell me again about this dream you had."

        "I don't remember much but what I do remember is that there was five of us- we were running from- we were running from a man who looked angry. I don't know what we did but we were running around in Piltover. It was in the Academy side." The Doctor wrote down some notes before closing her book.

    "I believe you need to revisit these places to see if it can trigger another memory of yours. We can maybe find your parents. Also, what did these kids look like?" She asked Lexa. The little girl paused for a moment. Her memories had given her an insight on the person she was before the explosion. Lexa was a thief and she didn't know if telling the doctor was a good idea. "I don't remember. Maybe your idea might help." Lexa lied.

The doctor nodded and wrote something down before pressing a buzzer. "Bring Caitlyn Kiramman." The doctor spoke and then some doors opened before the door to Lexa's room was opened. "Lexa, this is Caitlyn, Caitlyn this is Lexa. Caitlyn will be escorting you around Piltover to see if you remember anything. Don't be afraid to ask her for help." Lexa looked at the tall woman.

"Hello." Her voice was soft. Caitlyn looked down at the girl and Lexa looked up. She was a few years older than her. She was about twenty if Lexa had to guess. "Is this some lower job from the academy they set you up to? Maybe your mom didn't want you doing any real enforcer jobs." Lexa voiced her thoughts. Caitlyn was slightly taken back.

"I'm sorry, I don't know what came over me." Lexa quickly apologized realizing what she had said. Caitlyn was confused by the smaller girl but shrugged it off. "It's...fine." Caitlyn finally said before leading the way out. "Let's go."

The walk around the academy was silent. Caitlyn tried to start a conversation with Lexa multiple times but the young girl wouldn't budge. For some reason Lexa didn't like her. She didn't know why but Lexa was trusting her gut.

They walked around the academy and Caitlyn walked behind her as Lexa led the way. She didn't know where she was going until she saw a familiar building. "Who lives up there?" The blonde asked Caitlyn. Caitlyn looked up at the building she pointed to. "I do not know. My friend used to live up there a long time ago before it got blown up. I was there that day." Caitlyn told Lexa.

Lexa's head started hurting and her vision became blurry. She didn't know when or how but the next thing she knew she was back in her hospital bed. Her head hung low as her hair covered most of her face from the sides. From her peripheral vision she saw Caitlyn.

"What happened?" She asked.

"You passed out." Caitlyn replied while looking at her head. It was then that Lexa realized she had a bandage wrapped around her head. "I fell and hit my head?" She asked her. Caitlyn nodded before looking at the door.

    "Doctor Taki."

    "I requested an enforcer that could do their job. If you can't protect my patient then what good are you?" The doctor scolded before removing the guest pass on Caitlyn's chest. "Leave." The doctor said while pointing at the door. "I am truly sorry but you have to believe that I was with her-"

  "Leave!"

     Caitlyn looked at Lexa before smiling a little. "Get better." Lexa felt bad but she didn't look in her direction. Lexa wasn't interested in what she had to say and she was happy that her doctor made Caitlyn leave.

    "These enforcers are idiots with power." Doctor Taki said shaking her head before picking up Lexa's chart. "You got a few stitches from fainting and falling on concrete. You also have a couple of bruises but nothing major." She read.

     "Do you think I will ever get out of here?" Lexa asked out of the blue. The doctors eyes softened at her vulnerable state. "I believe that if you remember you can go home to your family." She replied. "Don't worry, I will be with you every step of the way." The doctor told Lexa.

    Lexa smiled a bit before looking at the man that rushed in. "Code blue!" The doctor excused herself quickly before leaving the room. Lexa quickly got up and got her sketchbook from the side. Her bag was there too.

     She opened the bag and saw the stuff she had inside. While she was walking with Caitlyn she pickpocketed people on the way. Lexa had money and pens as well as gum and bobby-pins. She popped one of the pieces of gum in her mouth and then grabbed a pen. Lexa quickly went to work as she closed her eyes and started drawing Powder.

    "I remember the day of the first explosion." She told the drawing. Lexa couldn't see the real person but she knew Powder was there. "We were stealing from someone and you took some crystals. One of them fell and I went to pick it up but you grabbed my hand and we left. I watched the crystals energy build up... it was the crystals." She mumbled.

    "The crystals caused both explosions...you caused both explosions. You're the reason I'm in here."
