Birds Of A Feather (Ray x Reader)

Genesis

YOUR POV:

"N/N..? Are you okay?" I hear a familiar voice ask me.

"Ray, back up! Give her some breathing room!" Another familiar voice says.

My eyes flutter open as I see two blurry figures, black and orange. My eyes finally adjust as I notice that it's Ray and Emma looking at me. I scream and jump back pointing both of my pistols at them.

"Be quiet!" I yell.

"Woah! Put the guns away!" Emma exclaims.

"Where have you been?!" Ray yells.

"You two aren't real," I begin. "This is just another trick...you're not real. You're not real."

The two look at each other before looking back at me. "We're both very real Y/N," Emma says.

"Are you feeling okay?" Ray asks me.

"Give me a reason I shouldn't shoot."

Ray and Emma's eyes widen as they begin to panic and list off reasons. I roll my eyes, "tell me something that only the real Emma and Ray would know."

"You used to write letters to Ray when you were a kid!" Emma exclaims.

"You once tried to bleach Norman's hair because you didn't believe it was real," Ray adds.

My eyes widen as I immediately lower my arms and apologize. "I am so sorry for accusing you two of being fake!" I put my guns away, "I-I just like...killed my past self I think?"

"What?" Emma and Ray ask in unison.

"It's a long story," I say. "Where are we now anyway?"

"Goldy Pond," Emma answers. "We were fixing to eat, but then you suddenly showed up."

"How did I get here?" I ask.

"You just appeared," Ray says. "It was really weird."

Emma nods, "yeah! One second you weren't there and the next you were! Also, you should have seen Ray when you vanished! He was losing it!"

"I was not!" Ray argues.

I frown, "sorry for leaving so suddenly. I didn't expect to go through that door and be back in that house. Where did you two end up?"

"The dining room at the bunker," Emma answers.

"Weird," I hum.

"But where did you go?" Emma asks, "you need to tell us everything!"

I nod, "yeah, of course. Uh, well the first time we got separated I was in a kitchen. At first I thought it was Grace Field's, but I quickly realized it wasn't. After that I was in the living room where my dream always takes place."

"The family right?" Ray concludes.

I nod, "yeah. But it was just me and the kid...turns out, that kid is me but from a time I've forgotten. She didn't have numbers on her neck. She claimed I was her before I got taken, and I even met my parents." I groan, "long story short, I don't think...I'm from here."

Emma frowns, "if he can conjure all of this up...then what is this place?"

"How should I know?!" Ray yells. "But I think I've figured it out...what's the thing that he can transcend, but we can't?"

"Space and time?" Emma and I answer.

Ray nods, "yeah, and what was the symbol we saw at the temple?"

"A cube and an hour glass, right?" Emma replies.

"North, south, east, west, up and down—make six directions, a cube of space. And the arrow stopping between time is stopped." Ray explains, "front, back, left, right, up and down—are six planes, plus time makes seven planes. This makes up the physical wall that regulates the world. The physical limit that is time and space...that's probably the Seven Walls."
