"Becky, as you know her, is the reincarnation of my first ever charge and the heir of the family that saved my life when Wilden took power - Rebecca Patricia Armstrong. The wiliest, most noble, selfless and good human being I've ever met in all my years. My family. My hope in humanity and my long lost friend. And you Freen Sarocha Chankimha are the reincarnation of her true love." Marlin said
"What?" Freen said
"Rebecca is she dull in this era?" Marlin asked
"No she's just shocked" Becky laughed
"Me? Reincarnation? Is this why you've been so freaked out?" Freen said
"Hmmm No." Becky's head hung low
Marlin was also visibly shaken
"I guess that explain why my family had possession of one of Marlins essences. It was ours." Freen said
"Yeah.. So when my family in the past received Marlin many neighbours were envious of our prosperity and power. One family in particular. The family to whom you were formerly betrothed cursed us." Becky said
"Formerly betrothed?" Freen said
"Yes a rich man from a rich family wanted to marry you. But your family agreed to let you be with me even though we could never marry." Becky said
"That seems progressive." Freen said
"Well your mother received a fortune about us. Something about saving the world over and over again and being destined for greatness. Something about moons and stars and suns. I don't remember but I didn't care." Becky said
"The puppy will protect the rabbit in every season and they both will save and set free the world. Their red thread shall never be cut but by the end of the world itself." Marlin said
"Yeah..." Becky said
"Anyway, this curse was particularly nasty and irreversible. They cursed us to die by each others hands." Becky said
"Like kill each other?" Freen said
"Basically, yes." Becky affirmed
"Right." Freen scoffed
"When I was coming back to the present after astral projecting I saw flashes of my memories but the most vivid was the one where I killed you. That shook me. I then started to get my memory back when I woke up from that long nap." Becky said
Freen took Becky's hand
"So that's why you were so shaken up. And why you've been in so much pain. But baby, that will never happen here." Freen said
"We can't be sure of that" Marlin said
"He's right." Becky said
"It's the same thing I said when you made your third and final wish. We can't be sure the curse will not continue in reincarnation." Marlin said
Freen took Becky's hand again.
"Look at me." Freen said
Becky looked into Freen's eyes.
"Are you listening to what you've just told me?" Freen asked
"What?" Becky replied
"We love each other so much that we defied tradition, biology, death, curse and even time and still found our way back to each other. What's to worry about?" Freen said
"But..." Becky started
Becky laughed
"You're not so different in this time after all." Becky said
"O....k.... - shall we get back to reality then?" Marlin said
"Freen, I'm still scared. The reason I killed you in our past life was the influence of purple genies." Becky said
"Then we won't let it get that far this time." Freen said
"Ok" Becky smiled
"One question, are you still my Becky?" Freen asked
"I'm even more so your Becky now than I've ever been. My person didn't change I just remembered more of our story. I'm still a physicist aren't I?" Becky replied
"Ok... I love You." Freen said
"I love You Freen." Becky replied
Freen got up.
"I'm not sure I can help you here but I know I can help Non and Heng." Freen said
"In getting Billy back?" Becky asked
"Yes." Freen said
"Ok, be careful." Becky said
"I will."
