    "Paladin's magic? She was a seer before..." I think as my head spins. I have been on many adventures in the last year. I guess I am a world jumper to! I have already been here 2 times, and I have tumbled into the Naruto world once as well! I explain this to Jason as his eyes grown wide.

"Wow. Really?" He asks.

I nod. All this is crazy! Will Silica and Albedo remember me? Last time I was here, I discovered that I could bend all 4 elements of air, water, earth, and fire. Plus I can use my chacra in a Naruto-like way.  

"Jason... Do you think they'll remember me? If this is really further into the future than last time I was here... They should remember me right? It was only a year ago! Sort of... I guess its been a long time here... Huh?"

    "Yeah," he said, "From your story, I'd say it's been a little over twenty years."

I turned my eyes to the ground as we walked. Twenty years? That didn't seem possible, yet here I am. Jason put his hand on my shoulder.

"Hey," he said, "I don't know about Albedo, but Professor Darkwood does remember you. In class, she always told us stories of her best year here. The year a girl came falling from the sky, I guess that was you."

I looked up and saw that we were in front of a large door. Jason raised his arm and knocked on it twice. The door then opened, revealing a large classroom.

Sitting at the teachers desk was none other than my old friend Silica.

    I stared. She had grown into a fine young woman. She was beautiful! I kept staring, trying to decide what to say. I didn't need to.

"Way- I mean... Cristalina?" Silica said, her eyes growing wide. "Is that you?"

She almost said my real name! When jumping worlds, I always go by Cristalina. My real name had always been a secret. Silica had been an exception.

"Aur-S-Silica!" I sputter. "It's been a year since I have seen you, but you haven't seen me in 20 years!"

I almost said her doppelgänger's name. My my first and still BFF. I have others, but Silica looks identical to her! The truth is that when I first fell here, I was only concentrated on going home! But then I started liking the place.

"No wonder you haven't changed much! " She says in awe.

I run over and hug her, everyone staring and murmuring. Jason leans at the door, smiling.

"Class, I want you to meet someone." Silica says turning to her class. "This is Cristalina, the girl I have told you about in those stories so many times before!"

Her class is dumbfounded staring.

"How can we tell if you're telling the truth?" One student asks defiantly.

Silica looks at me and smiles. "Go on." She says.

I concentrate my chacra and air-bending to make an air ball. Then I jump onto it and balance as long as I can before getting off.

"Whoa, no wand!" Another student exclaims. "It really is Cristalina!"

I turn to Silica confused.

"Your kind of famous here now. You have no idea how many people I have told about you." Silica says, smiling.

I smile.

"What about you?" I ask.

"Well, as you can see, I'm a teacher now!" Silica says.

I laugh, then look over at Jason.

    After an hour, me Silica, and Jason sat down at a table.

"So," said Silica, "You came here just like last time?"

"Yeah," I replied, "But it seems like it's been a lot longer here than I expected. I heard about Albedo, what happened?"

"No one really knows," Jason said, "After you went back he spent a couple of years trying to get into your world, but failed every time. People thought that he grew mad with every try. Not Professor Darkwood though. She stood by him no matter what."

"Jason," she said, "I told you to call me Silica when in private."

I looked and her with a confused look, then to Jason, then back at her.

"It's not like that," she said, "I've been tutoring him ever since he learned he could master Paladin's Magic."

"About that," I said, "You were a seer when we last met, when did you learn Paladin's Magic? And when was it even a thing?"

"Paladin's Magic has always been a thing," Jason said, "Wizards weren't the only type of magic casters. Long time ago there were many different caster types, Paladins were one of them. They were experts in not only constructs, but in aura enchantments as well."

"I learned it five years after you left," Silica said, "I was one of the first to master it."

"How come it's hard to master it?" I asked.

"Because it's one of the oldest types of magic here," she replied, "In order to master it, you must do one of two things: be a direct descendant of a Paladin, or you must fuse with an old Paladin rune-stone."

"Which one did you two have to do?" I asked.

"Silica's a descendant," said Jason, "I am too, but I also fused with a rune-stone."

"So, does that mean I could use Paladin's Magic?" I asked.

"Not sure," said Silica, "Paladin's Magic relies on direct bloodlines, not reincarnations. It's a slim chance, but I don't think we should risk it."

"Why not?" I asked.

"Because," said Jason, "If you try to cast it and not meet one requirements, there's a chance you'll incinerate."

"Oh," I said.

Silica reached for my hand, "Hey, you still have amazing power. And now maybe we can search for Albedo together. Besides, we won't be alone. Jason is an amazing fighter, he has even surpassed me in Paladin's magic."

I was about to say something, then a horn sounded. Both Silica and Jason looked to the window, worried.

"What is it?" I asked.

Jason looked back at me, this time he looked more angry than anything.

"Wraths!" Was all he said before he ran for the door.
