Hello, everyone! How is everyone? I hope everyone is alright!

This is going to be the last chapter I will upload for a while because I'm leaving to go to my late grandma's town where we have no internet or TV or radio so it will be like a technology cleansing since I'd be busy with cleaning and other household chores.

I'll try to go to an Internet cafe but still, money is tighter than ever so I don't know.

I hope you like this chapter! I'm currently writing the 15th chapter which is good!

Enjoy!

Nansia woke up and looked at the ceiling of her dorm, it's been months since she appeared in this weird universe and so much has happened.

Last afternoon was a very nice outing yet Jeremy words were what made her re-think her approach in life.

She needed to stop holding back, fearing she will disappear at any moment and that her actions won't have an effect on her or the people around her.

She truly needed to start counseling sessions with Professor Tig.

She truly needed to keep up with school work and her social life and work.

Thank God for Hope and Lizzie even MG who helped her learn this dimensions history and current timeline otherwise she would be lost!

She sat up and turned to face Penelope's bed only to see Penelope asleep but what worried her wasn't the fact that she will be late for class and breakfast but the furrowed eyebrows and whimpers coming from her.

"Penelope!" Nansia rushed to her and shook her gently to wake her up from the nightmare.

She wouldn't budge.

A voice in her head that sounded a lot like Thalia's and the one she's been hearing all her life guiding her told her to find Alaric and Dorian even Jeremy.

Wait...was Thalia's voice always guiding her?

Not the time for this, Nansia!

She rushed with her pjs and fluffy socks to the Alaric's office and burst through the doors yelling in distress;

"PENELOPE ISN'T WAKING UP!"

She only realized that Alaric had visitors some sort of parents that looked at her confused.

"What? How? Why?" Alaric asked confused and a little ashamed for Nansia's behavior in front of potential new student.

"I don't know, I just woke up and she looks like she having a nightmare but I tried to wake her up she won't wake up...I...I...feel that something is wrong...I can't explain it exactly...it's a feeling. You gotta help her!" Nansia rambled in worry as she tried to find the right words to explain how she knew that Penelope was in dire need of help.

The parents looked at her worried.

"Could be a medical problem?" The woman from the pair asked kindly.

"Well, yeah, but could she suffer from PTSD that would be translated into her sleeping pattern making her see traumatic events play out in her mind, confusing her brain to think that it's living the same events again on a loop and can't be awaken if the traumatic memory is done playing out?" Nansia asked Alaric and the woman looked impressed at her and she just offered the miss a tight-lipped smile.

"She has been through things, yes, how could we wake her up then?" Alaric asked a little worried.

"Break the loop." The woman said in a authoritative tone as if she knew what she was talking about.
