The girl is layed on the floor, nearly dead. I crouch by her.

"Hello? What's your name?" I ask her.

"Megan," she replies, barely audible.

"Megan. Do you trust me?" I ask.

"Why?"

"I am going to revive you. But to do so, I must kill you first. It will probably hurt, and it could go wrong."

"Yes, I trust you." Megan is brave. Hardly anyone would trust me in this situation. I close my eyes. Seconds later Megan is awake, alive, breathing. I help her up.

"Thank you," she says. I nod in acknowledgement, turn away and walk off.

"Hey wait!" she cries. I turn. "You can use Remnant, right?"

"Yeah, why?"

"Can you take me as an apprentice?" she asks. I'm shocked by this. I probably can. Why the hell not?

"Yeah, sure."

One week later and I have officially got an apprentice.
