Two Worlds One Soul

I Will Die

Rika's Pov

"It's nice to meet you again Rika, or should I say Amaya." He says not caring that others in the courtyard can hear him.

"What do you mean?"  I say shocked this boy called me by my other name.  "Who are you, and I how do you know my name is Rika?"  Unconsciously I take a step back and put my guard up.

"I told you that you can call me Raj, but not here as I wont call you Amaya here anymore.  But here you can call me Evan."  He takes a step forwards and I take one back.  We continue this until I have no were else to go.  My back hits the wall and I'm trapped.  He hits the wall next to me and stares straight into my eyes with his green ones.  "Now tell me what you mean from before."

"I don't know what you are talk ing about," I lie and look away from him.  He doesn't move and I can tell he won't give up and sigh.  "If we are going to talk, let's talk somewhere else, we are attraction a lot of attention and we shouldn't let others hear what we are talking about," saying this he give me one last look before backing away.  "Let's go to the roof, can talk there," saying this I walk past him and towards the infirmary.  Many people around us that noticed what Raj, no Evan did to me start whispering and Evan just walks behind me with his hands in his pockets not caring.  When we reach the I open the door and I already forgot that Sora and Rei are there so when I do, we see them chattering and laughing while sitting on the ground.

"Ah, Rika," Sora says noticing me and Evan.  "And who are you?"  She asks him.

"I'm Evan, an acquaintance of Amaya's," I hit him in the gut with my arm and glare at him.  "I mean Rika."

"Rei, Sora, you can go now, I have something I want to talk about with Evan so you can go now," I say pushing them out and shutting the door.  Rei looks like he wants to say something about me being alone with Evan but I don't give him the time to do so.  I know he is worried about me and that I've been rather odd to him and he doesn't understand me more than before, but it can't be helped considering everything that happened to me.  I walk over to the fence so we are as far away from the door in case they try to listen and face Raj with by back leaning against the fence.

"So, are you going to tell me what you mean now?  I am able to go back and forth without anything happening to me." He says.

"Then you have to tell me about yourself too and how you are there in that world too."

"Alright, but you go first."

"I guess I should first tell you how I got to that world.  Not long ago on our last field trip, my school went to my brothers research lab.  No one really likes me and they all like my brother more, my parents because of my love for music and my bad memory which I don't have anymore, and everyone here at school because of my grades and they think Rei gives me private lessons which I guess is somewhat true but not always, he just puts it into a song and I can easily remember it.  Anyways, I got jealous seeing him surrounded by people like he always is and I just wanted to get away.  I ran out the back door and it started rain but I ignored it.  I just kept running.  Soon it got really bad and there was lighting.  It struck near me so I jumped into a pile of bushes that was up ahead of me.  Only thing is, is that behind the bushes was a cliff and I fell.  When I did, I realized that I was such a terrible sister getting jealous and also that I wished to live in a new world.  When I opened my eyes, I found myself in that world and I didn't return here until I was traveling to the academy and fell off the cliff because of reasons that involve some of my family wanting to kill me.  Ever since then, whenever I go there, time seems to stop here and vise versa.  But it turns out that I was;t suppose to be born in this world which is the reason I keep losing my memories here ever since I was younger.  I can't stay here or else my soul will be destroyed so I have to die either here or there.  And I chose to die here, not many people will miss me and I do want a new life there where I have more people who care about me so that's why I won't be living here much longer.  I probably only have two or three times for returning here because since I chose to die here, my body is weaker and also I cough up blood now and feel weak."  I explain this to him sad about it.   Why can't I just live in both worlds, but I guess that would be selfish of me.  "Now it's your turn."

"Hm, so you have that kind of reason.  Well I guess my story isn't as bad as yours.  I don't' really know why I I can travel back and forth, but I have ever since I was a child.  At first I never understood but I do know that it isn't a dream which I always thought it was until I met you.  Though when I say it was when I was a child, I guess to be more specific it's when I met a certain girl.  I don't remember her face, I can only remember that she had short hair and I now that she was really beautiful and adventurous.  She had black hair in my memories and I remember that she was lost.  She couldn't find her way home and forgot where it was and where she was.  We both were kidnapped when we were walking around the city trying to find her house and we were lost for a while.  I do know it's because of her voice though, apparently the guy who kidnapped us loved her voice and also thought she was a boy.  When he found out she was a girl, let's just say he tried to do something to her.  I did my best to stop him but ended up getting hurt.  We were rescued by the time I opened my eyes but I never got her name not did I ever meet her again because she disappeared."

When he says this I remember something similar happening to me.  I think back and Evan looks exactly like that boy.  So that means the person he is talking about is me?!  Shocked I keep my mouth closed thinking.  This is really the reason why I had to hide my identity. I remember this now, I guess because I wanted to forget it, when my memories came back I didn't get some of them back since I didn't want to remember.

"Rika?"  He asks looking at me since I am quiet.

"That girl, that girl was me,  what you just described is what happened to me when I was younger and I remember it now." I tell him and he stares at me shocked too.
