Reincarnated to set her free

Chapter 4

The maid exit.

I think I really did get reincarnated, or perhaps I switched souls with the owner of this body. Or perhaps she was supposed to die, and I took over her body, or.... I really don't know. The only thing is Elois. If I did get reincarnated, why is he in this world? And he really seems like the villain, considering how my body was trembling when he saw him. Am I dreaming, am I making this world up? First let's see... If I still have the same body then I'm prbably dreaming. 

I get out of my bed with quite the difficulty. My body is still soo weak. Then I head straight in front of the mirror. It...it isn't me. I have long grey hair, grey eyes and I'm soo small. I look in my 20s though. 25 I guess. I wonder if my state is due to my coma, or if I was just badly treated before. 

As I'm looking in my refletion I...it starts moving, stretching, what the... My legs feel so numb and my vision is getting blurier even though I have my glasses on... I feel myself falling, and BOOM, I am on the floor.

I fainted. I know, but how come, I'm standing up now? Everything is soo bright around me and suddenly i find myself standing in front of the body I'm in... Or rather in front of its owner. Her mouth start moving.

-Hello, I'm Iris

-hmmm...Hi, I'm Lyn?

Strangely I'm not afraid or anything, I feel so calm

-I know I'm the one who brought you here, Lyn.

I don't beat around the bushe:

-I kind of guessed that, why did you bring me here? I say, with an accusing voice.

-What? Are you going to tell me that you wanted to join your family? You know you were going to hell don't you?

I stay silent, she continues:

-Listen, I don't want to be on bad term with you, look, I know you are not a bad person, so I'm here to get a deal with you.

It is not as if I can refuse,or not listen to her, it is that or hell, and she doesn't seem like a bad person either, she look kind of pitiful:

-What do you want? I say, with a soften voice.

-I want you to set me free. 

-I don't understand, I say, when in fact, I'm beggining to put the pieces together: her fear of her brother, the bars in the window, the maid, the made up story about her fiance, her coma....

-You will, if you accept my request.

-I can't accept if I don't know what you want, what is in there for me anyways?

I know that staying in this room is better for me that returning to that alley, but if I can get something out of this deal...

-I will let you a second chance

My body is trembling. I...I don't want to get my hopes high... she continues

-You perfectly understand, You will get back to 16 year old body. If you succed, you will come back to a world where your family is still alive.

Tears start running down my cheeks. I...I hope this isn't a dream, but at the same time, I hope it is. I want to see my mom, my dad, my little brother, but going back, isn't that too random? Why question myself when I know what my answer is?

-Deal

She smiles

-Nice, good bye and good luck

She dissapears, but I'm still here. What was she talking about, and why am I not waking up?

My head start hurting, and memories start unleashing in my head, not my memories thought, her memories. They then get projected in front of me and... I can't even describe what I'm seeing or what I'm feeling...

Her memories explose within me, but they stay in a part of my brain where that I can choose to visit. It is really sifficult to describe, but it is just as if I watched a tv show, where I could feel the characters feeling. It is still a tv show, so it doesn't really affect me or my personality, it simply is in a drawer somewhere in my mind, a drawer I can access, but that I can still close wherever I feel to.

Her life is so sad thought. She lived the life of a princess. She had two loving parents, and a cute little brother just like me. Her life was perfect, but at the age of 16 her parents died in a carriage accident. A little too cliche, but car accidents, are commun, so who am I to judge? They were coming back with her brother, he just got accepted in an academy, he was thirteen, and he were with them. He was the only survivor. As sad and traumatizing as it was for her brother, it was worse for her, or that is what she though. She had to become the head of the family at 16. Her jealous relatives, didn't let her the time to mourn. Her parents owned a duché, and her brother was the successor as only boys could be family head. But too young and traumatized to take the responsability, , she had to do so, waiting for him to grow enough, She didn't have any training but she was smart and quick so she managed. Then, when her brother hit seventeen, and her twenty, he took on the title. She wasn't jealous or anything, I really admire her for that. She was even relieved, since the 3 last years were hell for her. She couldn't think about her for one second. She was partaged between her responsability and her brother, so the coming of age of the rightful heir, was for her, a promise for a better future. She could finally mourn her parents. And her only responsability would be to guide her brother, since he had the three last years to take heir lessons, it shouldn't be too difficult. She would be enjoying her wealth and marrying a good man. Or that's what she hoped...
