As I sit here on a rock watching the sunset, I wonder to myself where did the time go?

I mean it feels like just yesterday I was just a little boy being forced to build the "R-System" but also try to escape. And now I'm here taking down dark guilds to try and make up for my sins.

A lot has happened since then. But to sum it up, basically I betrayed my friends, killed Simon, and had multiple run-ins with the woman I love, Erza Scarlet from the Fairy Tail guild.

We almost kissed before the games but I pushed her away and told her I was engaged because I believe I don't deserve her after all the bad things I have done.

I really wish I could be with Erza but it wouldn't work out. I am constantly on the run and have done terrible things...

I sit up when I hear rustling in the bushes.

And then Erza walks out and just looks at me. I stand up and was about to walk away when all of a sudden Erza is there grabbing my arm.

I turn around and look at her. She looks at me and asks me, "Why did you lie to me about being engaged?"

I looked at the ground and told her, "because i don't believe im good enough or deserve you."

She took another step and slapped me across the face and then pulled me in for a kiss. My eyes went wide and i was going to push her away but then I gave into my desire.

She pinned me against the rock and we deepened the kiss...

Then next thing I know im waking up and Meredy is standing in front of me. I realize that it was a dream and I must have fallen asleep.

I hold a disappointed look on my face for about two seconds before I put on a forced smile and Merudy and I continued on with our journey. My mind drifts back to my dream and I have a real smile on my face.

Merudy gets my attention after she says my name like for the eighth time. She asks me why I was smiling. The only thing I say is that I had a wonderful dream and then I push the dream into the back of my mind.

I never once thought about my past and how much of my life was taken away again. Because each time I did that dream would just pop back into my head.
