- Adrian's Prov
"WHOAAAA!!" Alina, Hunter and I screamed as the portal on the other side opened and we were just thrown out of it "UGH!" I grunted as I landed painfully on my face and it didn't help when my sister and Hunter landed on me, I then groaned from them on me "Get off please" I groaned so they immediately got off me and helped me up then I groaned as I stretched because now my arms and back hurt quite a bit then I looked around and saw we're in a forest "Where are we??" I asked looking around as I can't seem to find a village "You mean, 'When are we?' Adrian" Hunter corrected me "Yeah, okay" I told him then we started looking around the forest walking around to find a way out of here then I finally found the exit so Alina and Hunter followed me out so we followed the road and WE'RE REALLY CLOSE TO PHOENIX DROP!?! I then went to the gates and it took some thinking of what to think of and I lied that Alina, Hunter and I are traveling merchants so we went through the gates and I have to tell Aphmau who I really am along with Alina and Hunter, turns out Hunter is Laurance's son and he inherited being a Shadow Knight from his father and Laurance disappeared in the Nether Realm AFTER Hunter was born so that's going to be hard to explain to Laurance and Nashmera's past selves, anyway, I then met Aphmau and Aaron... Mom and Dad... I have to think about how to tell them Alina and I are their son and daughter and turns out we're in the timeline where after Aphmau adopted Lilith, this is going to be hard.... I then had a meeting with the people I trust which are Aphmau and her friends and Alina told me they have to know who we really are... I then sighed "Everyone, I called you all here because..." I started "We have to tell them" Alina told me "I know" I replied "Tell us what?" Aaron asked and I sighed "We are not traveling merchants, I lied because it was the only thing that came into my head so we can come" I told them explaining why I lied "Then who are you three?" Travis asked then I looked towards Aaron and Aphmau "My name is Adrian and this is my older sister Alina" I told them our real names "And that's Hunter" I told them pointing to my friend "Aphmau... Aaron.... Alina and I.... are your son and daughter" I told them "And Hunter is Laurance's son" I explained who Hunter is then they looked like they didn't believe us "We're... from the future" I told them "About thirty years from now" I explained what timeline we're from and I have proof we're from the future "Prove it" said Laurance "Laurance, you and Nashmera have a child in about ten years from now and you and the others find the island that has a temple that has an exact duplicate of Irene's Realm" I told them "And you already met Hyria, Lucinda's mother and O'Khasis has been invaded by the Tu'La region" I told them and they were very shocked that I know all this because no one was with them, I then gave them proof that we're from the future because Nashmera is here "Mrs. Zvahl, read my mind and look through all my memories and then show it to everyone here" I told Laurance's wife so she walked up to me, set her middle finger and index finger on the side of my forehead and I felt her go inside my head but it wasn't as painful as I was expecting, more like a little tingly feeling and I closed my eyes and I showed Nashmera all my memories, every single one of them then when she stopped, she gasped and stared at me shocked "You're... telling the truth.." she said shocked then she showed everyone here my memories and they finally believed us and I can't believe I almost forgot Nashmera is a mind reader and she can feel other's emotions, she kind of reminds me of a Jedi, but she isn't one because I can't sense anything from her about The Force being strong with her, anyway, it took a few days but eventually everyone was informed of who Alina, Hunter and I are and Nashmera had to show everyone in the village my memories but I didn't show her the parts about me being a Jedi Apprentice, I will decide when they're ready to learn the full truth about me, anyway, I'm right now at the place where Aaron set up his camp (I'm absolutely sure he doesn't feel comfortable being called "Dad" because of what happened to Falconclaw), I'm practicing what Finn has been teaching me and Finn isn't here anymore, I'll have to try to remember everything he had to teach me but I can't use my Lightsaber for now, I have to use the sword that my father wielded and my mother wielded after him and Alina wielded this sword after Mom and now I wield it, I then accidentally ended up right next to Aaron's camp "HAH! UGH! HUH! YAH!" I grunted as I was swinging my father's sword from my timeline practicing my offensive skills and my defensive skills "Who taught you that?" I heard a voice asked "OH MY IRENE!" I yelled jumping from the voice coming out of nowhere and I almost fell in the water until I felt someone grab my arm and pull me away from the water and saw Aaron "Sorry, didn't mean to startle you" he apologized "It's fine, I'm the one who should apologize, I didn't know you were camping here" I told him telling him that it's my fault I wasn't paying attention "I'll ask you again" he started "Who taught you those moves?" Aaron asked "Oh uh" I started as I started thinking of what I should say and I can't have him know I'm a Jedi Apprentice so I have to lie "Dante trained me" I lied "He taught me what I know about swordplay but... I don't think it's been very useful, I'm not exactly good with a sword" I admitted because this sword is really heavy and it's a greatsword, I've never used that kind before "I could train you" he offered "Really?" I asked a little hopeful "Only if you want" he told me "Absolutely!" I told him "Alright" he told me and he took his jacket off and was shirtless as he held his sword in his stance so I lifted the sword in my hand, did a figure eight and got in my stance

I then ran at him and started fighting with this sword like it was a Lightsaber and I started showing him what I learned in combat but he countered all my moves as I wasn't as fast as I am with a Lightsaber but as I realized how sloppy I am with m...

I then ran at him and started fighting with this sword like it was a Lightsaber and I started showing him what I learned in combat but he countered all my moves as I wasn't as fast as I am with a Lightsaber but as I realized how sloppy I am with my father's sword, he knocked me over and towered over me as I was about to get back up but I can't, this sword is just way too heavy for me, I then groaned in frustration with myself "You seem to know as much as I know" Aaron told me "Yeah.." I sighed "Possibly even more" he commented "Really??" I asked confused "Really" he replied "But it seems my sword is not for you" he told me then he helped me up "How did you know this sword belonged to originally you?" I asked him confused and he smirked "The engraving on the guard has the same writing as mine does" he told me, wait what?? What engraving??? I then lifted the sword and inspected the guard of the sword and saw... writing etched into it?? I then squinted to read it "Always fight for what's right?" I read it aloud "My wife forged it for me" he told me putting his jacket back on and I looked shocked at the sword I'm holding "Lily" I whispered then I started hearing voices coming from the sword so I closed my eyes and saw what this sword is trying to show me through The Force and saw... how Falconclaw fell and.... I saw everything Dad did with this sword... I then started panting heavily from feeling Dad's anger, his sadness, his... loneliness.. I then started trying to calm down after what The Force showed me "Are you alright?" Aaron asked "Y-yeah- ahem, yeah, I am, sorry I just couldn't breathe for a second for some reason" I made up an excuse then I heard someone panicking so I sprinted to the village AND NEKOETTE IS BEING ATTACKED BY SOME CREATURE THING!? I then sprinted to help her "HAH!" I grunted striking the creature and it just disappeared, I then saw Nekoette was badly injured so I took her to the village carrying her and Dante was frantic about her to say the least and for some reason Aphmau can't heal her, I then sighed "Move" I told her "What?" Mom asked "I said move! I can handle this" I told her then I moved to Nekoette and I looked down at the poor girl and saw she was bleeding quite a bit and Kawaii~Chan was panicking so I very VERY gently set my hand on her wound and she whimpered from the pain "Adrian what are you doing?!" Alina yelled worried as I told her I'm not going to tell everyone I'm a Jedi Apprentice yet but it's better I show them than tell them "It's about time you all know who I truly am" I told everyone "What?" Mom asked "Mom...Dad..." I turned to Aphmau and Aaron and Dad was shocked that I called him that "Everyone..." I started "I am a Jedi" I told them "I am a Jedi Apprentice" I told them "I am The Last Jedi in my timeline" I told them "And your about to see proof" I told them then I looked down at Nekoette and I closed my eyes and... I transferred some of my life into her, everyone has a life force and I took some of mine and transferred it into Nekoette as I started making echoed panting then after I stopped, I saw Nekoette was completely healed so I let her go and I felt a burning pain in my wrist so I started rubbing my wrist while hissing in pain trying to take deep breaths "Adrian what did you do!?" Alina asked/yelled worried "I... I just transferred some life into her" I told them "Force energy from me into her" I explained "Everyone has a life force, it's what keeps us all alive" I told them "And I just took some of mine and transferred some into Nekoette to heal her" I told them and they all seemed shocked I just gave up some of the remaining years I have left just to heal her, it didn't even left a scar, that was actually the first time I ever did something so advanced in The Force, I then started feeling... dizzy.. "Adrian?" Alina asked worried then everything became dark and I just couldn't see anymore and that's as much as I can remember.
