Leon is dreaming about the Lillia he remembers and knows. How she would cry alone sometimes and he would have to come and remind her that she is not to cry without him to wipe them away. How she found the light in things, including his very own heart. How much of a trouble magnet she was, and all the times that Leon had to protect her. Her normal everyday smile was burned in Leon's mind and heart. That other Lillia...that he saw yesterday...was not Lillia at all, no matter what she said her name was.

Leon: "Urgh..."

Leon stirred in his sleep, hugging himself, laying on the hard ground. His mind wandered to when he first brought Lillia to his place. Past the door, on that beautiful scene on Earth, where Leon would always go whenever he needed to calm down and be alone. Lillia was the only person he shared it with. His eyes snapped open in the middle of his dream.

Leon: "Ah...AH! Hah...gah, what the...?"

Something had occurred to him...that the garden he had just saw that other Leon meet the other Lillia at...it couldn't be that garden...could it?

Leon: "But when Lillia saw it...she acted like she had never seen it before. There is no way that disappointing King-version of Lillia could of had made that place..."

Lillia: "Where is this place? Why are all the humans walking around? Is there war again-?"

Leon Regulus: "Ah! No...it normally like this!"

Lillia: "With all you humans packed together like this, you could all suffocate."

Leon watched as Lillia familiarly raises her right hand, fingers ready to snap. Leon Regulus seemed to figure out what Lillia was going to do.

Leon Regulus: "N-no! Don't do that! Seriously...I am already having a hard time believing what you told me last night..."

Lillia: "What is so very hard to believe, Leon Regulus? Am I not proven enough for you?"

Leon Regulus: "What is that supposed to mean?"

Lillia: "You seem to have been shocked at last night's demonstration."

Leon Regulus: "No regular person can fly or make food appear! And I've never seen that kind of fruit before!"

Lillia: "It seems no different than to you humans' apples. Though you treated it like it was poison."

Leon Regulus: "It taste like an apple, though with a very silky and sweet taste at that, but it looks like some pink pearl, and I've never seen it before..."

Leon watch the two walk in front of the alleyway he was in. He can see that the other Leon had tried to have Lillia wear something that wouldn't show that she was...not human. But her aura, even to Leon from how he is right now, was still very powerful and demanding. Leon still couldn't believe that the woman was even Lillia.

Leon Regulus: "Here we are..."

Lillia: "Do you humans-"

Leon Regulus: "C-can't you say...something else...?"

Lillia: "Is there a problem with what I say?"

Leon Regulus: "Everyone will think you're weird..."

Lillia: "I appreciate your...let's say, excessive display of honesty, though wouldn't one find it over on their emotions that it would harm them?"

Both Leons thought that Lillia's way of words was more harder to decipher than the King's. Lillia's lips pull into a small smile that Leon had never seen before. A smile that Leon was ever so jealous that she was sharing to what Leon still thought was an imposter of him.
