Chapter 11 (Part 2)

I still remember the world
From the eyes of a child
Slowly those feelings
Were clouded by what I know now

Where has my heart gone
An uneven trade for the real world
Oh I... I want to go back to
Believing in everything and knowing nothing at all

-Evanescence, Field of Innocence

"You are finished, mortal!"

Your heart stopped. Why now? Why fight now out of any day you could choose? "This isn't good, Y/N." "Thanks for pointing out the obvious." "Oh shut up." You didn't speak, nothing had come out of you.

You couldn't think straight. Nothing seemed like it was okay. What was the consequence?

You were pacing back and forth. Yusei asked, "Is that really necessary?" You answer, "I'm thinking, okay? I don't want anyone else to vanish like Akiza did. Besides, I don't even know where that cloud even came from." You kept pacing until Jack stopped you by putting his hands on your shoulders. You didn't say anything and heard Jack speak, "You can't keep doing this. None of us know where she might have gone. We should let Mina and Trudge deal with this, Y/N."

Crow said, "We lost her." Yusei looked out and thought to himself, "Who are these people?"

"Are you sure about this?" "This is the only way we can find Akiza." "Hold that thought." Your mark began to burn and you said, "Hold on Akiza, I'm going to try to find you." You found in yourself in the depths of a familiar forest. Your sense of direction guided you to a cave. It had a very creepy aura to its surrounding. Akiza, where are you?

Crow complained, "Why do we always have to chase after Y/N when she "senses" something?" Yusei said, "Like I said before, there's a lot about Y/N that we don't know. Anyways, let's find her before she does anything that could get her killed."

I know I'm getting closer. I can feel it. "Hello! Someone help me!" "Did you hear that?" You answer, "That sounds like Akiza!"

Akiza yells, "Hello! Someone help me!" Akiza moved around but groaned in pain. The male spirit smirks, "Try to break free mortal, nothing you do will work now." There was a crash that could be heard outside. The guard said, "Don't move, pathetic human. You won't live if you disobey me." The guard didn't come back and Akiza sighed in relief. He was starting to annoy me. "Akiza?" "Y/N?" You said, "Be quiet, you wouldn't want Creepy McCreeperson to come back." You cut Akiza's ropes, which set her free. Akiza asked, "How did you know where I was?" You reply, "Let's just say that I had a hunch." Akiza questioned you, "What is this place, Y/N?" You both freeze when you hear the sound of footsteps. Akiza was about to scream but you covered her mouth with your hand. You give her a "don't start" look. "Oh little human, I know you're here! I can smell your revolting scent from miles away." "This guy is annoying me." "Join the club, I'm holding myself back or else I would tear his limbs." "You two have to escape without him finding you." "How? He can smell Akiza's scent and he would probably be able to smell mine as well. There has to be a way to confuse him, but how?" "I don't know."

You heard the sound of Akiza's panicked breathing and you were trying to think of a way to escape the cold lair of shuddering misery. Akiza whispers, "How are we supposed to escape this place? That weirdo is on our tail and we have no way of losing him." You didn't say anything, you dropped to your knees and Akiza whisper-yelled, "Are you okay?!?" All you said was, "Mark burning." Akiza saw a barrier forming over the both of you, making her slightly confused. The male spirit then laughed, "Enjoy being buried here, human!" The male spirit disappeared in a puff of poison and smoke. "Y/N!" Dark Magician Girl became concerned when she saw your state. Tempest Magician said, "She will be fine. This barrier will protect the both of them for now." Akiza called out, "Come forth, Black Rose Dragon!" Akiza's dragon appeared before the both of you. Akiza then adds, "Let's get out of here, Y/N." Akiza was blown back by an unknown aura surrounding your body. "Y/N?!?" She then realized that the aura was similar to the one she sense when she first met you. This aura, it seems so familiar. The aura then disappeared. You let out a groan, "Ugh, my head." "What was that?" "I have no clue, Dark Magician Girl." "It looked like her aura." "Whose aura? What are you trying to say?" "I'll tell you later." Akiza asked, "Are you okay?" You rub your head, "I'll live." You saw Black Rose Dragon and said, "Nice to see you too, Black Rose Dragon." She roars in response as Akiza's eyes widen. Akiza exclaimed in surprise, "You can communicate with my dragon?!?" You pat its head and respond, "Akiza as much as I would like to explain what just happened, we need to get out of here." She nods and said, "Go Black Rose Dragon!"
