Derekyanu's Viewpoint:
"What did you find Argo?"
He took a deep breathe.
"Gentlemen," he said. "I present to you a repmuj (jumper)."
I didn't believe what he said.
I was taken aback.
"Are you sure." I asked him.
"Quite. It's impossible to miss one once you've spotted them."
"How can you tell?"
"Ahh, look closely."
Argoeux directed our attention to her hands. And I couldn't believe my eyes. Bright gems appeared to be present on top of them. And as I took a closer look, I noticed that it dug right into her skin.
"Yikes, that must've been painful."
"Excruciating," added Dalereno.
"But aren't they all... gone?" asked Dale.
"Apparently not, my liege," Argo responded.
"This young lady may be the last of her kin. And whatever he has done to her must have petrified the poor thing."
"But the question is, what?" Dale asked.
As soon as I touched the young woman's hand, her eyes widely opened.
But that was not the reason why Dale and Argo stepped back. What caught them by surprise was her eyes. There was absolutely no pupil, just pure whiteness. She quickly grabbed my hand.
And for a second, my mind was linked with hers.
------------------------------------
I was standing in the middle of a field. Everywhere I turned, people's screams and cries could be heard. I was knocked down by a rapid storm of panicking people. It was strange because I couldn't feel any of them trampling me. I was quickly pulled to safety by a mysterious force. And before I knew it, the person took me out of the chaos and led me straight to the forest.
We just kept running and running. I wasn't certain about his facial features, but I was confident that it was another man, who has the same size and build as me.
-------After that, everything went dark-------
This time, I was in another room. No light could penetrate it. Little did I know that my hands and neck were strapped onto chains. And as I looked up, the moon was the only thing I could see in the sky. Then my body was suddenly glowing and every time I moved, my neck was burning.
"Ahhhhh-hhhh!!! ARGHHHHH! What- is- hap-pe-ning to-ME?"
I could finally feel the pain. It truly was agonizing.
-------After that, everything went dark again-----
My eyes were closed. It was also bizarre because I couldn't force them to open no matter how hard I tried. It felt as if I was moving up and down.
And once that was done, I was snapped back to reality.
I was now lying on the floor with my hand intertwined around hers.
I was awaken by the sound of Argo and my uncle.
"It seems like he's not getting up..."
"He needs mouth-to-mouth, Argoeux," said Dale.
As Argo bent down and seized my face, I immediately stood-up.
"Ah, I'm F I N E, I'm FINE!!!" I immediately cried out .
"What happened to you?" he asked.
For a moment, I actually didn't know. But sooner or later, I came to realize, it was her memories. It was what she has gone through all her life, up to now. I tried to catch my breathe and continued to say that this was one lucky child.
Tina'e's Viewpoint:
My body was asleep, but my mind was fully awake.
Rushed footsteps and voices were approaching me.
I was scared. I didn't know what will happen to me.
"Don't move a muscle. They will not harm you unless you DON'T move," assuring myself.
Beads of sweat slowly trickled down my forehead.
"DON'T MOVE!" I whispered to myself.
But it was too late. As one of them brushed their hand on mine. They activated my mind receptor. My memories were now connected to whoever it was that touched me. I was in their head. And with just one swift action, I was taken to whoever's past.
--------------------------------------
Now, I was out in the wilderness playing with a dagger. It was past night-fall. And it looked like I had to head home. As I started running, I was headed towards this huge castle.
Once I entered, torches were lit up everywhere. It was a vast open area, which appeared to be a dining hall. It seemed like I was also late for dinner. I then made my way through the hall when all of a sudden, a tall man blocked my path. He stood right in front of me and took my weapon away. He started yelling and screaming at me, and for some strange reason, I started to cry.
I ran away from his sight and onto a new surrounding.
-------------------------------------
This time, I was inside my room, but it looked pretty empty and dull. I was looking out the window when I saw a woman outside the door. She was conversing with a man who had all the armor you can possibly imagine. Both looked very worried.
And as I tried my best to listen to their conversation, another man entered the hall with the same amour as the first, but with less chain mail.
After a few seconds, the woman burst into tears. It gave me an impression that something went terribly wrong. And it looked like I wasn't going to find out what it was for I was slowly being pulled away from the scene and onto a different one.
---------------------------------------
Now, I was moving.
Faster and faster I went. I didn't know what I was riding on, but I knew that there was someone slumped behind me. My heart was racing and my blood was pumping. I was very anxious.
Now after that brief memory, everything went dark.
It seemed that I was back in my own mind.
After experiencing those thoughts, I was able to pick a certain guess of whose thoughts that might be. I knew it was my savior. But what I needed to know was his name.
And because I wasted too much of my energy, I let out a soft groan.
"Shoot!" I thought to myself. "I believe they heard that!"
My eyes slowly opened to three unfamiliar faces. All who were smiling down on me. But one stood out from the rest of them.
He stood up from the floor and asked me:
"Are you alright? Are you hurt?"
I did not dare to speak. But I knew it was him. He was my saviour. From his memories, it all seemed to piece together.
The castle, the dagger and the ride.
These were the thoughts of a person with high regard. These were the thoughts of a true prince.
This was Derekyanu, nephew of the Sun King Dalereno.
