NoName-chan: Hey, guys~! ^u^ I have for you my second OC-based fic! Everyone, meet Cameron!
Cameron: *waves nervously*
NoName-chan: She's the main character of this lovely fanfiction~! I've actually been meaning to post this fic for, like, 2 months now, but I hadn't been able to decide on a title. But then, at 3 o'clock in the morning on a school night, it came to me: MAKE IT IN JAPANESE! So, I ended up with this. The title translates to "Past to Future" in English. Okay, that's all I've got to say, so someone do the Disclaimer. Allen?
Allen: *Sighs* NoName-chan does not own DGM.

"Hey, Cameron, you off to the forest AGAIN?"

"Yes, mom. Just like I've done everyday for the past year and a half."

"Okay, just be safe."

"Okay, mom." Cameron mounted her bicycle and shot off down the street. It wasn't long before she reached her destination- the large forest that bordered the small town she called home. Her bike began to jump slightly as the smooth cement of the sidewalk faded into the dirt roads of the abandoned trail. Cameron sighed with pleasure as the thick canopy of assorted trees shaded her from the burning rays of the sun. She breathed in the intoxicating aroma of various flowers and leafy plantlife the hung in the calm forest air. The forest was by far her favorite place to go. It was a place where she felt free and could get away from the troubles of life. But most of all, it was a place she found INTERESTING. There were always new places to explore, new things to do. She couldn't say as much with the rest of her life. Every day was exactly the same for Cameron.

She would wake up at 7a.m. to the obnoxious ringing of her alarm clock. After changing into the plaid skirt, button up shirt, vest, and tie of her school uniform and eating a slice of toast with grape jelly, she'd ride her black and silver bicycle to school. After attending a number of repetitive classes, she would ride her bicycle back home, change into more comfortable clothing, and do her homework. Then, after a brief conversation with her mother, Cameron would go for a bicycle ride through the forest. After a few hours, she'd return home to eat some bland dinner her mother cooked up and go to bed. After a night of dreamless sleep, the process would repeat.

Wind whipped through Cameron's dirty blonde hair. She craved the touch of the forest. She craved the uniqueness of each trail. She craved the way it changed every day.

Though this was only enough to satisfy a little of the longing that ached in Cameron's heart. Although the forest changed with each passing day, it was still the same forest. It was still the same bike ride. There were only so many trails in the immense jungle of wood, dirt, and vegetation. Her bike could only take her so far. So each day, Cameron would ride the length of each of the 19 forest trails twice, admiring the beauty of the scenery.

Until that day, that is.

Cameron prepared to turn a sharp corner at the top of a hill when, suddenly, her bike's tire caught on a thick tree root. The blonde girl gasped in shock as she was hurled forward into the thick bramble of trees and other plants that covered the other side of the steep hill she'd been riding up. She yelped in pain as her body hit trees, rocks, roots, and the hard ground as she tumbled down the hill. She continued rolling in a disorganized tangle of flailing limps until she hit the hard flat ground at the bottom with a thud.

Cameron groaned as she sat up, rubbing her head. After inspecting her body for damage and finding little more than a few cuts and bruises, she surveyed her surroundings.

She gasped. It was amazing! She'd tumbled into a small grassy clearing surrounded by trees. Directly through the middle of the area was a shallow pond surrounded by banks of emerald green moss. The clear waters of the pond were dotted by beautiful white water lilies and clumps of lime green lilypads. It was a sight that had Cameron gaping.

Suddenly, a low groan sounded through the peaceful air. Cameron felt her head snap toward the source of the sound. Her hazel eyes fell upon a dark figure laid behind a clump of cattail. The blonde girl pulled herself to her feet and slowly walked toward to the figure. After repositioning a few clumps of cattail, Cameron gasped again. The dark figure was a boy!

The pale boy was unconscious as far as Cameron could see. He appeared to be about her age. She let her eyes travel to inspect his face, and felt her mouth gape open in shock. His hair was pure white! It framed his gently-shaped face in fluffy spikes. He had a strange mark on the left side of his face. It appeared to be a tattoo of some sort that began as a red pentacle above his left eyebrow, ran in a thin line over his eye, then down his cheek bone. Upon closer inspection, Cameron found it was a scar. The girl frowned. The boy wore a unique black coat with silver buttons and details.

'That coat... It looks familiar...' she thought to herself.

The boy groaned again, and Cameron knelt down, looming over the boy. He cracked an eye open. The blonde girl resisted the urge to gasp once again. His eyes were silver! He opened them both slowly, blinking a few times as he did so. Then they shot wide as he spotted Cameron.

"Who are you?" he asked, taking the girl aback a bit by his demanding tone.

"I'm Cameron," she answered. "And who are you?"

"Allen Walker. Where am I? How did I get here?"

"You're in Hazelwood Forest. As for how you got here, I could ask the same question. I was just riding my bike on one of the trails here when I crashed into this clearing and found you unconscious."

"Forest?" he asked dumbstruck. "Wait, where exactly is this forest?"

"Hazelton, South Carolina."

"South Carolina?" Allen asked, looking dumbstruck.

"You know? The state? In the United States of America?" The white haired boy gasped.

"How on Earth did I get here? When I blacked out, I was battling Road on the Earl's Black Ark in Japan!"

Cameron was bewildered. "What do you mean? Battle? Earl? Black ark?"

"You know? The war? Between the Black Order and the Millennium Earl?"

"What are you talking about?"

"How do you not know? This war has been going on for centuries! The Earl and the Noahs are trying to destroy mankind, and we, the Black Order are trying to stop them!"

Cameron stared at the boy blankly. What was he talking about? What war? The destruction of mankind? That would've been to the news to say the least! Suddenly, a question rang in the back of her mind.

"Hey, Allen? What year is it?" she asked.

"1896," he replied without hesitation.

The blonde girl's eyes widened with shock. "Allen, I think you must've hit your head very hard."

"What? Why?"

"It's 2013."
