Chero stood in darkness, she looked around and saw nothing.
“It’s so dark…”
“What was I doing again? Why am I here? Which way should I go?”
Chero looked to her right and saw the monster there. To her left was nothingness. She felt something pulling her to the right, towards the monster.
“Are you going to help me? Can…Can I really go that way?” she asked the monster.
“Yeah! That’s right….I’m sure if I go that way I can meet my friends again, right?”
She started to walk to the right, but stopped when she heard a voice calling from the left. The voice sounded familiar…But she could not place it.
No.
“Hm?”
You’re going the wrong way.
“What?”
This way, Chero.
“Hmm…This…way?” She questioned, turning in that direction, “Hey… Where are you?”
Chero, can you make a wish for me? I need you to wish that I am here. My whole self. Right now I am only partially here…If you can wish for that, I can be here for you and fight for you.
“What?” she questioned, skeptical.
And then I can come for you…
Chero walked towards the voice, “I don’t understand! But if you can help me…I’ll wish! I’ll wish really hard! If I do that I’ll be able to go back to my friends, won’t I?”
She closed her eyes to do just that.
Yes. I am sure you will!
“Listen…are you--” she asked, trying to place the voice.
Sorry! That will have to wait. Go on ahead, I’ll catch up. I have to defeat this thing first!
“What?! Wait! Um, who are-” Chero started before she was transported away in a beam of light.
“Huh? This isn’t the mansion…is it?” she asked, “What am I doing here? I have to go back quickly! Everyone must be worried-”
“Chero!” a voice called to her.
“Huh?” she questioned, turning to finally see the owner of the voice.
She gasped as she saw Italy Veneziano walking towards her with two figures behind him.
“Sorry I’m late, bella!” Italy smiled, “I picked these two up along my!”
Chero’s eyes filled up with tears as she looked at the man and woman behind Italy.
The man was tall with long dark brown, almost black hair pulled in a ponytail. He had brown eyes filled with warmth and was dressed in dark purple and white trimmed mage robes. The woman next to him was quite a bit shorter, with short light brown curls and striking blue eyes. She was dressed in light purple and navy ninja gear. She a bright smile on her face and tears in her eyes.
“Mommy…? D-daddy…?” Chero questioned.
