"Ok, do you remember me being around when the original 13 were here, or is it just me? Because I have been having these...." As Xemmsur began talking it felt like something hot hit my head, hard. Quick flashes passed by inside my mind, the girl that was so far away in this dark place slowly began to come closer and closer her long brown/blue hair blew in the nonexistent breeze. I almost screamed at how slowly the girl was coming into view, I tried to walk closer to her but I couldn’t move. Then in an instant she was in front of me smiling and before I could say her name she disappeared, and in her place old memories played out.
Childhood versions of Tris, Lex and RaXi appeared they were running down the shoreline to another small group of kids. RaXi came to a stop in front of the group then she let herself fall back into the warm sand. Triskix took a side ways glance at Lexian and sat down also. Only to be knocked over seconds later by Lexian which lead to a playful scuffle. Which ended in RaXi and the younger version of myself, glaring at the two. Marlex was sprawled out on the other side RaXi, watching her and smiling at her when she turned back around.
Then I saw her the mystery girl, on my other side. This memory was different then the others though, this time she was facing my direction smiling the whole time. Her face, along with Marlex’s, was not clouded or darkened, they where bright and clear, happy and content. But… with every solved mystery, there was another mystery made. A portal opened behind them and another boy walked out. His face was even more clouded then the girls and Marlex’s face was, and it hurt immensely to think about it. The younger version of myself jumped up and ran to him, and as if we where in unison, I felt myself stand and run to him as well. The last things I saw before I was thrown back to the real world were bright blue eyes.
“Xemmsur…” I blurted out, turning I looked at her. I couldn’t believe that I had forgotten, “Xemmsur… I… I.” I promised Saix that I wound not forget anyone. Yet the people closed to me I forgot about. I had even forgotten about Saix for a short time after everyone left. I knew nobodies couldn’t cry, but why then, did I feel a wet on my cheek?
Holding it back I put a smile on my face and continued on, “I have been having memories about a girl that was here, but I have been blindly casting away those images, at least until now. The days we had on the beach has past my thoughts many times, they have been the most rememberable. Lexian and I have been talking, he told me that he has been having the same flash backs too. There was also someone else I have been remembering about too; his name is Marlex. Then just now someone…”
My head began to throb again, as if someone did not want us to remember these people and was trying to rip the memories from our heads. I placed a hand to my throbbing temple trying to sort out these images, “Someone else… a boy, with bright blue eyes. He seems so close to us. I know I should remember him, I should have remembered you but…” Drawing the conversation away, I turned closed my eyes and cast out my sense, “… Something is up.” I could feel that something was way wrong. I can’t pick it out exactly, but I don’t think that it is coming from this world… Was it something to do with Lexian?
