Part 3: His Past

(Avira POV)

I can't believe i did that to him. I drop my sceptre and check if i paralysed him... Or worse killed him! Oh Goddess... He did it. I got mad at him for trying to leave. I check if he has a pulse... Or at least his powers respond. Then i notice that he has no mouth and i stand back. Dear goddess... Cathryn had done it, she cursed him .I never knew what she was capable of... Until right now. Mephiles had said that she struck him across the face. That slap must have cursed him to be able to have no mouth so he cannot mouth off to people. I must fix this... at least I'll try. Wait... how didn't i notice this before? he was standing in the shadows since the moonlight from the window was on me the whole time. oh bother... i have to fix this. Just to be nice.

"Hold tight, I know what happened to you now. I'm sorry for hitting you with my powers. At least you are still alive, i only paralysed you. You have to learn to realise i am right, Mephiles. You have to listen to me and to remember your past when i let you know. I'll wake you up soon, Mephiles. Hold still." i reassuringly say.

I undo the spell. I had been gifted with 1/3 of her powers at my birth (Explaining how i was the other target of the disillusioned moron's eye, besides Blaze's throne, Controlling the future and Mephiles powers). I swear to the Goddess that she is mean. Why would she do that... oh yeah, he mouthed off. I decide to take him to the Desert Garden Guardian Hideout. It is a secret garden in the middle of the desert. The desert sands cover it and i levitate Mephiles there. I'd find a portal, but there are none near the Desert Ruins of Anavatoia Calibre's Kingdom.

(Mephiles POV)

I awake to the sound of a fountain. Funny, i thought i was in a desert. I open my eyes and see that I'm in a tropical themed garden. My head is pounding and i get up and walk around. Over near the Fountain, birds are chirping and Avira is feeding the small birds that live in this garden. I stand unnoticed as i think she can't see or sense my presence. I look over a wall to see that it is desert there. Funny, i never know a lush garden grows in the middle of a desert. When i see there is a way out I'd leave but... i don't know. She might zap me again with those bloody powers of hers.

"Beautiful, isn't it? Just like the worlds, it needs two things to flourish and prosper perfectly. This garden needs water and sunlight to grow, but it can't just have one or the other, it needs both. Unfortunately, the worlds don't have both. The balance had been disrupted because of the events in the former Soleanna dimension. I have to yet tell you you're past. Will you listen? I warn you, i have a few issues with someone that will leave me." She said in proximity.

"What can you tell me, Avira? I can't remember a thing from my former past before the events on Soleanna" I state.

"Your name is Mephiles, but your birth name, Connor Crest is unused. You are actually 15 years old, not a common age that people had assumed. Especially, because you were born in 2197, on the 3rd of September. This is the future, where you were born and raised by your parents one year before the disaster that occurred. Causing a total apocalypse upon the peaceful future. You were born in what is now our functioning capitol, Natava Cano. You are the cousin of Silver and nephew of his mother and our leader, Lady Sifora." she tells me.

"How did you know?" i ask

"Sifora told me to learn the information in your profile. Only as she thought that I'd bring you back like this." she replies

"what else do you know?" i ask the all-knowing Avira

"It gets more bleak and dark from here on out. Your parents were killed the night of the disaster that destroyed our future world. The person behind it was a partnership. Since you were only a small child, you had been taken under the wing of a villainous Ferian-Overlander; Your powers were the key of all the destruction to this one perspective conqueror. His real name is unknown, but he is known as Eggman Nega by the Ferian's of the past. You were taught the evil by him as he was your master. By the time of your ninth year, you betrayed him and he sealed you away in the Sceptre of Darkness. He had got paid from the Soleanna Royal Government to hand you over. Unfortunately, he was left with his another apprentice, a girl called Anavatoia, or Alexis, Vane. If he would ever see that you are back again... i don't know what will happen." Avira explains to me

(Avira POV)

I feel like i had caused him to blank, he is just standing there with his eyes staring into space and not responding. I don't know what i had done to him. I shake him, run my hand back and forth over his eyes, nothing.

"Mephiles, are you ok? Mephiles?" i ask in worry.

He just stares, blankly and i think he isn't ignoring me. What had i done, i think i caused him to have a relapse (or at least a vision) or something. I levitate and place my hands on his head to try and fix this. My makings glow and my two green, spaced, eyes close. My mind is filled with the events that occurred in Soleanna. I forcefully destroy those memories and fill his mind with the things that he should remember from the past that was erased years ago and the recent things that happened last night. After i finish we both fall. Lying on the lush grounds of my secret place. I hope it worked. As i lie, fading into a darkened sleep i see Mephiles lying there falling into it too.
