In Her Mind
It had been a week in the new world. Lightning was still all alone. She couldn't find any of her old companions and she didn't know why. She thought they would be together. She decided she would find them no matter what so she set off on her search. She spent over 1000 years searching for things and now here she was doing it again in the world where she was supposed to be finally at peace.
She spent years travelling around the world trying to find her lost friends but they were nowhere to be found. Light still continued to look for them, still thinking they would turn up somewhere she would least suspect. This world was supposed to be her happy ending and she would never give up.
She reached London and asked the locals if they had seen or heard anything about her forgotten friends but no one has seen or heard anything. They had been alone for so long now she was starting to believe she was the only one of the gang to get to this world. Maybe they were here and were just really happy without her and they didn't want to be found.
Her searching became more frantic and desperate. She went around the city threatening people to give her information. Her friends had to be somewhere. She felt as if people were hiding them away from her. She began to think Bhunivelze returned and was still messing with her. She no longer had any idea what to do. All she knew what she didn't want to be in this world all alone.
She was sleeping on the streets one night after another day of searching. Two men wearing white coats started walking towards her and tapped her shoulder. Light already knew what types of people they were. They were going to take her away and lock her up. She resisted and fought back but one of the men pulled out a syringe with clear liquid inside and plunged it into her neck. She kept fighting but soon she fell unconscious. She woke up to find herself in a bright room. She sat up and saw the two men that brought her to this place along with others. They started to ask her questions about her past and she told them everything. Everything that happened on Cocoon and Gran Pulse. Everything about the power she possessed. Everything about the muddled up timelines and all the chaos that happened in those 1000 years of fighting. They didn't believe her, of course. But she knew the truth.
The two men brought her to another room with a jacket on that limited her movements and left her there. Tears started to form in her eyes. Why did no one believe her? They insistent that her whole journey was just her imagination. They told her that her name was Claire and she grew up in a small city in France and after her parents died she had started imagining things. It couldn't be. She knew what she was saying was true.
Lightning closed her eyes and let the tears fall.
