The aroma of basil and lemon balm lingers in the air as a young pink hair boy runs around a small laboratory style area, grabbing a wooden bowl of a mysterious gray dust, and a couple glowing mushrooms.

Walking over to a large table, he starts to vigorously mix the ingredients into a small mortar, adding pinches of different unknown medical herbs until they become a liquid consistency.

He glances over to a small picture frame that rests in the corner of a walnut shaded desk. Unlike the clutter of parchment and books, the glass protecting the photo is crystal clear and free from the dust that settles upon the rest of the room.  

He slowly puts down his wooden pestle, walking towards a small tattered rug. Pulling the rug back, it reveals a small safe hidden within the floor.

Gliding the dial to the right and left until a satisfying click could be heard, he opens the iron door to reveal a small clear vial containing a navy blue flower.

He picks up the vial softly as though it would shatter at the slightest movement. He pulls it close to his chest  and whispers gently,

"Please work."

After taking a deep breath through his nostrils, he returns to his work station and with a slight pop removes the cork.

With uneasy hands, he slowly pours the vial into the liquid brew. A sudden puff of blue smoke arises from the mortar the moment the mysterious flower touches the other ingredients.

After some careful mixing the boy begins to drain the liquid into a small clear vial and holds it up to the light. It emits a soft, neon glow.

"I will bring you back"
