Lily and Nomi stared at the ceiling wall, blankly, emotionless, lying on the floor of Lily's room.

"Lily..." Nomi called.

"Yes, Nomi?" she answered.

"Do you still remember Chloe?" he asked.

"Who's that? Is she a friend of yours?" she asked, getting up from the cold hard ground.

"It seems that even the people who are related to her are losing memories of Chloe, one by one. How long has it been since you became the goddess of time?" Nomi said to himself, closing his eyes gently.

"I'm gonna get us something to eat, brb," Lily said as she turned the door knob and walked straight out of her room. Nomi got up and scanned her room, he spotted a letter on Lily's desk. Curiosity took over his mind and went to check it out. "Ahem," He read the letter which said,

To Chloe

Chotto Chloe, how have you been doing my friend. It's been 8 years since I moved from Norrisville to Tokyo, Japan. I heard there was a ninja there. When I get back, I hope I can see the ninja. It will be so epic! And of course..I hope I can see you..You were the first to ever made friends with me! Watashi wa hontōni shiawase desu. Watashi wa anata ga mitemite hoshī, watashi no saisho no tokimeki.

Love,

Kumagawa

"Kumagawa? Who the bloody hell is that? He has a crush on Chloe!" Nomi screamed as he got mad blushing like crazy! Lily entered the room with a plate with donuts.

"Oh Nomi, I thought some goat was choking to death saying 'I masturbated', here's some donuts my mom bought from the bakery downtown," she said placing it down on the floor. Nomi placed back the letter on the table and got ready to eat the yummy tasty donuts. Before he could eat, he asked,

"Who's Kumagawa?"

"Hmm? Kumagawa? He's a childhood friend of mine," she said eating her donuts happily. "For some reason he knows Chloe as well like you but none of us remember who she is,"

"Is he related to you?" Nomi asked putting the whole donut into his mouth.

"No, we're not related to blood," Lily said.

Nomi think hard about it. The people that were not related to Chloe lost their memories of her like Nina, Hotaru and the others. How come he still remembers her? Then, he asked Lily when he will be arriving to Norrisville.

"Hmm..I guess tomorrow in the morning, why do you ask?" Lily asked looking at the plate which were full of donuts but now gone. "Dang it.."

"I'm gonna prove Chloe's existence!" Nomi announced as he ran straight out of the room in a speed of lightning.

"Seriously...Who's Chloe?" she sighed walking out of the room as well, carrying the empty plate to the sink. Nomi went into the Norrisville Forest, where he used to train Chloe and Lily before they fought the sorcerer 3 months ago. He sat under the tree and meditated.

/In his mind\

Petals and leaves from the tree fell into the shallow river. Nomi lied under a tree taking a nap. He actually has a question he, himself, couldn't answer. Why did he like Chloe. Was it because she was as nice as her father, Randy or either resembled him too much? Was it because she sacrificed everything for everyone during her battle? Was it because she has always helped him and the others in no matter what situation?

He did not have an answer. At all.

"What are you doing here Nomi?" a girl asked bending down as she brought her face close to Nomi.

"Who are you..." he asked opening his eyes slowly.

"Don't be silly, it's your best friend Kuroe," she said pinching his cheeks. "Why are you sitting around here for? Haruka's waiting for us,"

"Haruka? She knows this girl?" Nomi asked himself and got up. The image of the girl named Kuroe was blury. Everything was clear except for her face.

"We'll be late!" Kuroe said, taking his hand and running towards the village.

The touch of her hands sent shivers down Nomi's spine, like she was something he didn't want to remember at all.

The moment they got to the village, it was a battle with the sorcerer. Nomi looked around, dead people everywhere, people fighting for their lives. The moment he turned to his left, he saw Haruka's head attached to the pole of the village square.

"Haruka...No...Please..Stop it.." he muttered in disbelieve.

"Isn't it amazing Nomi?" Kuroe asked dancing around him grinning.

"Get away from me..." he said as he recalled something. Was his family alright? As fast as his legs could carry him, he ran to the Chonikos household, abandoning Kuroe. The moment he reached there, he was shocked!

All of them were sitting outside the door, without their heads. Blood written on the door saying, 'its all your fault'. He could not take the crap he was seeing anymore, he ran to wherever god knows where, and saw Kuroe fighting of the monsters who used to be humans with the other people fighting. Nomi saw the sorcerer appeared behind her, Nomi warned,

"Kuroe! Look out!"

"NEVER CALL ME BY MY NAME!" She shouted before the sorcerer slit her throat. "Its all your fault, I died..."

Nomi saw her face at last, but it was strange, her face, was exactly like Chloe's.

/Reality\

"Ahhhhh!" Nomi screamed as he stopped meditating.

"Gahhhhh!"Lily screamed as well, but more like a screech. "What happened Nomi?"

He kept silent, crying. Lily couldn't help but felt bad for him. She was kind of sorry she could not remember who was Chloe for the sake of Nomi. Nomi still could not find the answer to his question but he did find out Haruka wasn't his only friend.
