Wakfu: Aeri The Eliatrope

Chapter 11: Memories

Aeri saw what looked like an Eliatrope girl, a bit older than her. She was wearing all pink clothing matching her hair. She was waving at her. ;"Aeri! C'mon! Let's go!" She called her. With her was a thin dragon With fluorescent wings shining with all the colors of the rainbow. Aeri felt as if she knew them. She had a warm feeling in her chest. She had never met these two before but somehow she knew. ;"Who are you? How do you know me?" She asked the girl. The girl didn't answer. Aeri heard someone else calling for her name, a man this time. It was like the entire world was spinning. The scene changed.

Now she was in a small room full of mountains of books. Some vials of unknown liquid were neatly placed on the table, a man poured some red liquid into a vial of blue liquid and it changed color. She couldn't see his face but she felt as if she knew him too. ;"So Aeri, are you ready for today's lesson?" He asked her without turning away from the vials. She tried to remember his name, but it didn't come to her mind. A voice however answered to him ;"You know I am!" Said an older Eliatrope dressed in red. Her hair and eyes were the same as Aeri's. ;'Is that...me?' She wondered. The girl smiled brightly at the man in front of the desk. Her hands glowed red with the energy of Stasis. ;"You seem to be working hard as usual. Could you tell me what you're working on this time?" The woman asked. ;"I would my dear, but that would ruin the surprise." The man said finally turning around. But before she had any time to see his face, the world spun once again. 

This time there were several people. Eliatropes. Although she couldn't see them very well, she knew they were there. She heard their voices. ;"...and do you really think we should do that ____?" One voice said. A gentle, calm one. ;"But what if there's another way ____, you can't possibly suggest..." another one said an older, more intense voice. She saw shadows, no, dragons. Many of them, one of them looked like Shiroazaad but bigger. Black markings covering his otherwise white body. Piercing blue eyes. ;"Aeri, what do you think? She's close with you, do you think...?" The man from before said. Suddenly visions filled her head. They were fast, and like lights they blinked on and off from her mind. Visions of metallic beings, Visions of a planet she didn't know, of people she had never met. And finally a crystal clear scene. Of herself.

She was on top of a flying ship, talking to someone, something flashed in the distance, and was sent towards her. A zap from a weapon. It hit her chest. She fell down off of the ship, someone jumped in after her, an Eliatrope perhaps? A dragon flew after her as well. Shiro. He managed to save her. Warm, red blood filled the ground. Shiroazaad took his human form to hold her. He was calling her name. The scene became more and more clear. She could almost see the Eliatrope near her. Aeri tried to get a look, but she was starting to feel dizzy. All of the Visions had taken everything out of her. Everything became blurry. She was losing consciousness? No, she was waking up. She needed a moment. Just few seconds to see who it was. She needed to know. But yet again someone was calling for her. From somewhere distant. ;"Aeri...Aeri! Aeri!!" The voice became clearer as the scene blackened out completely. And then, she opened her eyes.

Shiroazaad stared at her waking sister. He was lightly shaking her. ;"Sister please wake up!" He yelled, when finally she opened her eyes, looking back at him. He hugged her. ;"I thought for a moment that you wouldn't-" He tried to say tears filling his eyes. ;"He wouldn't stop pestering us about it either." Lightning Fist said angrily. He stood in the corner looking at the loot they had stolen. The others congratulated each other on a job well done. Some where prematurely drinking beer and partying. ;"So feeling any better now?" Smisse asked nonchalantly. She got up wobbly, taking support from her brother. ;"Kind of...? I feel... weird. I saw... A weird dream.." she held her head. "I think I saw someone I knew? But I have never met them before?" She explained. Smisse turned to look at her. ;"Okay then... So you hit your head HOW hard?" He asked worriedly. "We can't have you going all crazy now Okay?" He continued. "So just lay down, and gather your thoughts." He adviced. ;"I'm fine! I'm just saying, I saw some things and people, and I think I know them! At least... I FEEL like it." She explained. "I'm not sure WHAT it was exactly but.." she said. Smisse put his hands on her shoulder. ;"You're really not making any sense here kid, but whatever it is you think you saw, really messed you up. I'm telling you, to gather yourself. Just Relax, we got what we wanted, and you'll get your info on the Dofus." He said to her. She wondered ;'But I'm not so sure it was just a dream...' But she couldn't say it out loud.
