Chapter 2: I accept

White light surround my body it was crazy. I couldn't see anything but light. I felt like I was floating, until I reached the end. Where I literally fell out! Thank god someone caught me… Sort of its still really embarrassing.

" Whoa!" the guys said that caught me. "don't want to send you to the hospital wing on your first day." he said while helping me balance myself. Ace came around the corner abruptly, almost making me fall. Again.

"Galen wants to meet her, Everett. I'll escort her you go meet with the others." Ace said while taking a slight hold on my arm to lead me out. We walked down corridor after corridor. This place, where ever it is, is beautiful. Each hallway we walked through had gorgeous details of encrypted battles. They also had crystal floating globes of dim light. We along a velvet black carpet. It was simply brilliant. We paused in front of an entrance with huge double-doors.

"Hey Avera, you did great out in battle, but I don't want you to get hurt. If Galen asks you to stay I beg you to say no! Will you, say no?" he said, like a plea, begging me not to join, whatever this is. I was taken aback. I don't think I can agree. I mean, I want to help them. Obviously something is going on and if I can help then I will try my best.

"I'm sorry Ace, I don't think I can agree to that. I want to help." I said bluntly. I wanted him to accept that I would join him if this Galen guy asked me to. Ace looked down in defeat, but opened the door for me none the less. I walked into what I can only describe as a museum of art, gorgeous art might I add. It was a grand room, with paintings placed perfectly around the room. A dark brown desk, that I could tell was wenge wood, sat in the back of the room. Behind the desk was a huge circular window that showed an intricate maze made by brush. It was remarkable. As my eyes began to drift slowly around the room they came across a man. This man was wearing an all white suit with a black vest and black shoes. He had slightly whitening hair, but right now was a rich grey. He had a very strong air about him. He stood smiling at me with blue-grey eyes.

"Avera, I'm so glad you're here." he spoke genuinely. "I'm sure you have many questions and all of which deserve an answers, but first if you will, I'll give you a little summary and then we can go from there." he said returning to a comfortable looking chair and gesturing to one across from him. I sunk into the chair trying to prepare for whatever news would be coming. " This war has been raging for centuries between good and evil. Right now we are at Vlamwood Military Headquarters and training camp in Montana. This place is named after my father Desre Vlamwood. We have been fighting against Adreine and his evil creations and followers. He has been the main cause of our strife recently, ever since Bayern was killed 16 years ago. You my dear may join us if you see fit. Any questions you have now?" he said wrapping up his summary.

"Yes, only a few. Who were those guys in my backyards? Does the world/gov. know about this? What about my parents and sister? What if I say no?" I finished my list of rapid fire questions.

"Okay, you will meet the boys later, No the world/government doesn't know about us, your parents and sister will continue their life as if you were never there, and if you say no your memory of these events will be taken away and you will wake up in your bed." he said calmly.

" Wait, my family wont remember who I am?" I said not expecting an answer.

"My dear, its for the best" he said gently. I didn't want my family to forget about me, but I had this strange feeling that I was meant to be part of this. I mean the fighting came so easy to me and I feel like this is where I'm meant to be. Plus, I'm curious. This place, the story, the monsters, it calls to me. It's strange how your conscience can tell something is similar about a place, sound, or smell. Lost memories is what I call them. This place, the feel of it sparked one of my old memories…

The sun blocked by arrows flying towards what look like

another mixture of animal and human. A battle cry of "For Vlamwood!",

Came from where I was seeing this from. An army charged forward screaming

The same battle cry. A sword came into my view as it was about to kill several monkey-men. This sword wasn't just any sword it had a glowing red tint with the word Remain carved into it.

The word remain echoed in my head as I came back to my conversation with Galen. I shook my head trying to get focused again. Galen sat patiently waiting for my answer. I wanted to think about this more, but I figured that Galen wanted an answer and that my conscience was already aware of which answer I would choose. Lose all these memories or join what I feel like I have been involved in forever.

"Avera, we need an answer." he stated pointedly. "Will you accept our training and join us?" my brain barely had time to process what I was saying as I said it.

"I accept." was all I uttered. Galen nodded signaling the end of our conversation.
