A lone boy sits in the middle of a vast field underneath a huge tree. The field seemed to have no end, stretching out in all directions endlessly, the grass swaying silently in the breeze and the sun beating down onto the ground. The tree the boy was sitting under was the only source of shade in the whole area. It seemed like an eternity since the he had arrived there, but in actuality, he had only been there for 11 days. The boy was young, only being 16 years old. He had on a black cloak, which had a hood on it. He also had on black shoes with matching black pants. He also had on black gloves that covered his hand and part of his lower arms. Notably, his hair was quite abnormal, being spikey and the spikes tending to sway off to the right side of his face. He had soft facial features, pale skin, and bright yellow eyes.
The boy silently contemplated about different things. Especially about how he got there, since for some reason he had forgotten. He had no memory of anything, in fact. The only thing he remembered was a face, a girl's face. She had pale skin like him, soft facial features, and black hair that was parted off to the right, and her hair partially covered her forehead and right eye. She also had dark colored eyes, but he couldn't remember the color. He also couldn't remember her name, or why that was the only memory he had.
What was her name…? The boy thought. After thinking for a few moments, a letter came to his mind.
V
Why V? He thought. Was that what her name started with?
It was highly aggravating to him to not be able to remember her. When he thought of her, it felt like she was really important to him at one point.
I just wish I could see her again…Then maybe I'd remember…
He kept her image in his mind for a long time, trying to remember anything about her.
Then, something strange happened.
A portal appeared in the field, not too far from where the boy was sitting. The portal had a black outline, and a purple colored inside.
What the…?
"C'mon! It shouldn't be that hard to remember me!" A girl's voice said cheerfully.
"What?! Who was that?!" The boy shouts.
He stood up quickly, before realizing how much of his strength was gone. He tried to stay standing with all his strength.
"Wait!" He yells as he sprints into the portal.
When he went through the portal, he ended up in a mansion. The room where he was teleported to looked like the first room, with two stair cases on the left and right side of the room leading up to a second floor.
"Hello? Where are you?" The boy called.
He thought he heard voices coming from the upper right side of the lobby, so he ran up the stairs to the right, and saw a door further to the right. He thought he heard voices, but he didn't recognize any of them. He decided that if there was someone in the mansion, maybe they could help him; maybe they even knew him somehow.
He raced up the stairs and burst through the door, and was greeted by a room that looked like it used to be a library, the walls covered with books. But in the center of the room where the floor should have been, there were stairs leading to a sort of basement. The voices seemed as though they were coming from in the cellar area.
He ran down the stairs, and ran into a room that only had one thing of interest, and that was a computer. The computer didn't have anything on the screen though. In the next room, which was off to the left, looked like the computer room, but the room was completely empty.
As the teenager peered into the room, he saw someone, a male; he looked to be slightly older than the boy, but not by much. He had short hair and several bangs that covered the front of his face. He was also wearing a black cloak, similar to the one the boy was wearing, but with subtle differences. The cloak he was wearing had very defined shoulders, which was slightly confusing.
"Hey? Hello?" He called, trying to get the man's attention. He didn't even acknowledge his presence, let alone responded to him.
"Hey!" He shouted.
"Can you hear me?!" He raced into the room, and stood right in front of the man. He didn't look down at him or anything (since the man was quite taller than the boy).
On further inspection, the man seemed awfully familiar. But he couldn't understand why. Something was off about his appearance, though. Like he *looked* like someone he may have once knew, but he didn't look *exactly* like someone he may have once knew.
"C'mon! Stop ignoring me!" He waved his hand in front of the man's face. He didn't even blink.
"WHAT THE HELL IS YOUR PROBLEM?!" The boy screamed, holding his head in frustration.
The man then looked down at the boy, but, he didn't really look at him. He seemed like he was looking through him.
"H-huh…?" The boy then turned around, to see a boy that…looked exactly like him.
"WHAT?!" He ran in front of his "look-alike", to see a boy that looked like his mirror image. Except, there were three things that were different about him. His hair was parted off to the left instead of the right, he was about a half an inch shorter than him, and he had bright blue eyes.
"W-what's going on…?" He was completely floored. He couldn't believe his eyes.
Then, someone, possibly that was standing behind the boy, walked through him.
It was at this moment, he understood (partially, mind you) what was going on.
He was a spirit. But, why? Why would someone call him to this place?
The being that walked through him was a girl, and she had short black hair.
"It's you!" The boy shouts, trying to get the girl's attention.
"I found you! Please! Please tell me you can hear me!" He tried so desperately to get her attention. But, sadly, he didn't get a response. She didn't even acknowledge his presence.
The boy then looked over at his look-alike.
"This is your fault…isn't it?! Are you trying to take her from me!? Are you trying to take my place!? WELL I WON'T LET YOU!" He then sent his remaining power into the mirror image, his final thoughts being:
I promise you, I won't let you go again…V
