Once Upon A Time

Our enemy?

After walking for a long period of time

"Pshh! Kristina! We have to hurry up! We only have 30 minutes left," said Lucy anxiously.

"I know, I know. I'm almost done with getting some of my memories back," I said with confidence.

Our last stop was the gym. As we got closer to the entrance of the gym, an unknown, shadowy figure appeared in front of us.

"I'm sorry, but I'm afraid that I cannot let you pass," said a guy with a deep, masculine voice. He had hair as black as the night sky and charming brown eyes that could make you want to stare into forever.

I can't lie. His entire presence made me tremble. What a frightening person.

"Move it or else we'll use force," said Lucy.

"Try, Princess," he said with a smirk.

"You cannot do anything with that silly wand of yours. In fact, you cannot even cast a high-leveled spell on me as you are right now," he said with absolute certainty.

"Kristina, listen. Can you hear me?" asked Lucy.

"Lucy..? But, how..?" I asked in my mind.

"I just used a spell to communicate with you directly in your mind. Listen. This guy is not normal. We have to be careful. He's dangerous," Lucy said with worry in the tone of her voice.

"We have to get through him. We can't just let him defeat us like this. There's gotta be a way somehow!" I said with optimism.

"Then.. Kristina, I'll create a diversion and when I do, quickly run into the gym and look for anything!" she said.

"Okay," I said.

"Distraduplacata!" Lucy said quietly enough for no one to hear.

I pushed the unknown guy away from me and in my mind, I thanked Lucy about a hundred million times. With all of my remaining strength, I pushed the door open with all my might and suddenly, fragments of my memories surged into me. I remember. I remember. I remember! I remember, so why do I have a bad feeling that my memories are terrible..? I can't help, but feel like I'm about to cry. What's going on? I feel so weak. I wonder why.

"Shit!" shouted the person who was trying to get into my way.

"FACKNO BLAKOUT!" yelled the person with Lucy's wand.

The last thing I remembered was Lucy powerless on the cold floor and the guy with her wand in his hands.

"Screw you," I said with a fake smile as I slowly lose consciousness.
