I don't wanna leave this place.  Sitting here in the dark, where it's cold and it's a corner. I just shut my eyes and forget everything surrounding me. As if I can see in this area indulged in darkness.

Why is it dark in here anyway? Is this another dream? "Sigh, there's no point. I can't even remember a single thing about me. Who I am, where I am and Why can't I remember anything, but him. Argh!" my head hurts!

It hurt so Bad! *THUD* "Ouch! Huh? A door?" I feel something in front of me. A door knob and it's not locked.

I opened it. "Oh hello. Where did you come from?" a person was there. He was organizing some books and the lights were on. It was so dark outside and the room inside had the lights open and I didn't even see one struck of light.  "Just passing by? I'm lost. I can't remember anything about me." 


He walked right in front of me and hugged me. "Don't worry. I'm here." I feel much better now and relaxed right now. "Thank you, I d-don't know what t-to say." I stuttered "Don't worry. You can help me by folding those clothes over there?" he pointed to bed. There wasn't a bed there earlier.


What's going on? "Yeah, sure?" "You look a bit confused. Maybe you should lay down." I think i'm just a bit blind. Everything in this room feels like a bit like home and yet so foreign. "Do you know the place called 'Ville des Fleurs' ?" something in me lighted up when I heard that. "No, but it sounds familiar to me." I stood up an put my hand in his shoulders "Hey, can you tell me something? Who are you? and why do you seem like someone who I've met before?" He stood there in silence. A few seconds later he reached in his pocket and  took out a card.

"This might help you remember." A card with a name? No it's incomplete. Jxxox Ami? My eyes just started crying like hell "What's happening? I feel like hugging you." I kept crying "Can you?"


I just hugged him tightly and I didn't want to let go."Don't leave, ok?" I said "I'm sorry but you have to wake up. This isn't reality kid, but you are dreaming. But what I'm saying right now is real and concrete. I'll wait for you kid, don't worry. Promise"

I can't stop crying because of this moment. Dream or not, I don't want to let go of someone who knows who I am! "You gotta wake up now. There's something waiting for you to wake up. I sent her to protect you and to guide you to where I currently am. Wake up, ok?" "Ok."


"Hey! Are you awake?! Earth to sleeping man! Can yow hear me?!" It's a skunk. Wow I guess he wasn't kidding about the protect and she thing. "Also, you still have tears in your eyes. C'mon, chop-chop.  OH yeah, the names Puanteur."

The sun is setting... We're in a Savannah. All I can see is wide variety of plants. Nothing else, not even animals but Puanteur. "Can i just call you Pan?"

"Fine, we also need to hurry up, 'cause the beings in these parts only come out at night and the rule they agreed on is 'Eat or be Eaten'. I suggest we move."

I can feel something bad is about to happen to the two of us. We moved forward and didn't look back. Were still in the Savannah and the sun is slower than expected. I guess this is my path to find someone whose dear to me. "Hey kid, why don't you check that bag of yours? I'm starving over here! sorry to be rude, but I'm just like this when I haven't eaten." Bag? I did not notice the backpack on my back. "Let me see. 'For Puanteur'? I think this is yours."

"Open it!" she ordered "It's just crackers? Hang on, somethings on the lid 'Don't let him eat even one pieces. These Crackers are bottomless, will not expire and spicy. Get out of the Savannah first' That sucks for me."

She took a bunch and just shoved it up her mouth. "It's almost dark and the end of the Savannah is just 5 meters." she explained "Okay."
