I take a look at my surroundings to see how to plan my escape. I notice that I'm in a cell of some sort and honestly, this is not what i was expecting. There's a giant opening above me where I guess the ceiling was at some point and three crimson color walls, which if I'm not mistaken is all blood from the people, or creatures, that had this cell before me. And directly in front of me are what I think are cell bars which look like..... glowing vines? and there moving?? I look down towards the ground and I see the skeleton graveyard that is directly underneath me, realizing I am hanging, chained at my wrist.Lucky enough, my legs are free, which leaves me now thinking, how am I gonna get down? I begin to observe the chain, trying to notice if any links are able to be broken and, from the looks of it, no luck.
I yank at the chains out of frustration. How the fuck did I get here? Why dont I have any memory of what happen before my unwilling 12 year slumber? I need to get out of here and find out what happened. "Abel, can you hear me? Are you here?" That voice, it's not a voice I remember clearly, but it feels familiar. I look around for the person who just spoke, but no one seems to be here. Am I going crazy? "Hello?!" I scream out, seeing if I'd get a response.
"Abel!!! Oh thank the gods, you're alive!!" I look up to see a man with wings, hovering above me. Who the hell is this guy? and why is he so excited to see me? "We thought we lost you captain, but we never stopped looking for you." He said lowering down Into my prison. As he becomes face to face with me, I look at him closely. He definitely does have a familiar presence about him. Unfortunately, I don't remember him completely, but for the sake of getting out of here, I'm trusting my gut saying I can trust him.
"Hey cap, you ain't looking too hot. Let's get you down and get outta here." He says to me smiling. "My memory is a little hazy, I'm not quite sure who you are, but I have a feeling I can trust you." I say to him with a weak smile. I fall to the ground as he removes my chains. I hit the ground, surprisingly landing on my feet, but feeling extremely weak. "We had a feeling that would happen. You have been here in this realm for a while, but have no fear, once we're back in the earth realm, I can fix your memory at the hideout. Now, Fox Mage, it's time for us to go." He says as he helps me up. "Fox Mage?" As I repeat the words, I get what seems to be a flashback of a part of the past. I'm standing over the man who is currently helping me, saying "Come Colson, it's time to go home" and like that, I get this weird feeling starting to run through my entire body as I snap back to reality.
"Colson, Thank you" I say looking up at him.
" I had a feeling you would remember if I called you by that name. Now the next question is, can you use any of your magic?" He asked as he helps me stand. "I'm not sure." I say to him. That would explain the feeling I was about to question. Colson reaches into his bag that's strapped on his side and hands me, what looks like a piece of paper with writing on it. The texture of the paper is very weird and as I get a feel of it, the paper then begins to glow. It begins to levitate out of my hands, glowing bright pink and gold. I look over to Colson who looks to be so amazed , and honestly, I am as well.The next thing that happens after that, made me feel comfortable and safe. Is this a summon? Who am I summoning? The light begins to shape itself into what looks like....a Fairy? Why would I summon a fairy? "Hehehe" the fairy chuckled, "Master Abel Snow, I'm so glad you're awake!!" Unlike Colson, her name comes to me immediately. "Liona, The Fairy of Mischievous Punishments, otherwise known as N-" She interrupts me with a growl of frustration "DON'T you even think about calling me that disgusting ass pet name you came up for me. I've enjoyed not having to hear it since you been sleeping." She says with her arms crossed. I laughed remembering how much she hated it, but I couldn't help it, her pouting face is just too adorable. "Navi the Terrible" I say with the biggest grin on my face.
"Oh you think your sooooooo cute don't you?" She says with her face turned red. Me and Colson both laugh at her frustration. For a brief moment, we really forgot that we were doing something, you know, kinda important like getting me out of the Netherlands, but it was nice to have a few laughs. Colson looks to me, then to Navi, and says, "Alright, as much fun as it is to watch you to go at it, Are we ready to back to the task at hand? There are people waiting for our return." We both nod in agreement, "Yeah you're right, now let's get me the hell outta here. I need to find my sister and my mother. One's more important then the other." I say jokingly, yet serious. I love both my mother and sister but if I had to choose between the two in a life or death situation, I'll probably think really hard if I should just let both of them die. However, now's not the time for that.
Navi waves her hands around to catch me out of my thoughts. Glitter begins pouring out of her hands and what looks like a map of the Netherlands begins to form in air. We all begin to look and scout areas that have, what Navi called, "high magic points" to be able to locate a portal to the earth realm. She had also mention that this would have been easier to do if I had my memory of all of my magic to be able to make a portal back to the hideout. However, with me not remembering the location, Im pretty much fucking useless, And because no one has any idea where my sister is since I went missing, we're double fucked.
"Alright, so let's recap." Navi begins, " First, we go to the strongest High magic spot in the Netherlands, which seems to be located in the dead center of this realm. Colson and myself can fly with no issues, however..." I take a deep sigh, " Yeah, yeah, I know, no memory of magic means not able to use my wings until my magic and my memory returns." Gosh, I genuinely hate not remembering anything now. "Right" Navi continued, "Now, once we get there, Colson will be able to walk you through to open a portal with him. It's gonna take both of you so make you both don't lose focus when this happens. We'll only have a short time before "Him" shows up to stop us, so we have to act fast." Me and Colson nod at each other in agreement. Who the hell is "Him"? I would ask, but I rather not know at this current moment. "Once we're back in earth realm, if everything goes right, it'll be a cake walk back to the warehouse. Any questions before we begin?" Navi asked. I begin to raise my hand but was interrupted by the bossy fairy. "No? Good. Now let's get going." She says as she begins walking. Colson helps me up and we begin walking behind her. I'm not sure how long this journey will take, but I guess this just gives me time to remember something before getting back.
