Helios watched as even the animals began to love her company there. It would be hard telling them that as soon as her memories recovered she would be leaving their small world. She was even enjoying her job going into dreams to comfort the children.
He sat watching her sleep one night wondering how long he would be able to keep her. She was going to want contact with the other girls more than when they visited.
She rolled over and said, "Allex," in her sleep. This was what was making him worry. She was becoming more in more interested in the world she had lost. There were so many things he had to explain over but others she'd put parts in he got wrong. Oh she was slowly recovering her memories which meant soon too soon she would be returning to her mother's world.
"Sire," a wolf asked beside him quietly.
"She will be ready to fight soon enough," Helios said.
"Are you willing to lose her to the fight as well?"
"Sadly it is not my choice to make. It is her's and the dreams of Allex have become more frequent."
"Yes sire but she is doing so well here," the wolf nodded as Helios petted his head.
"She is not from our world, Leo. It is not her home."
"But she likes it here. The flowers are blooming much bigger since she arrived."
In the morning she got up before Helios did and walked out the barn into the dawn. There were so many things in her mind but the most one was wither or not Allex was an enemy or not. Every day she was getting more of her memories back but nothing showed him as some one who would do this but it was there in the evidence presented to her all the time.
"It's pointless. The council will use the evidence against him and nothing I say will be of any use. They will just say I was under his spell when he watched me leave," Serena sighed kicking a rock. A wolf came out tugging her back in. "No I am ready to go back fighting. Tell daddy I am grateful to him and all of you. I will be back but I am needed elsewhere." The wolf smiled and nodded heading in.
She transformed and ran back to the city trying to point herself in a direction where any of the enemy would be. She found a youma in the mall draining the people all around.
"You know I really am getting sick of you things," Serena said as light shot from her hand and the youma was destroyed. Serena smiled full charged with new abilities and a determination to find out the truth. Rei stumbled over and Serena realized how late she made it.
"You returned," she fell to the floor turning to normal street clothes. Serena changed to a skirt outfit that was red as she noticed Ami and the others laying unconscious as well.
Serena realized something else was about to happen wither she wanted it to or not. Allex walked up in his leather outfit. "What happened?"
"I caused this for a reason," he shrugged. Her heart sank (he had been a traitor). She felt sick to her stomach.
"There can't be a reason worth this," she stood facing him. "Everyone gave you a chance." He realized how much he had hurt her. She began to cry. "You said you would protect our home. You lied! You lied to me knowing I was leaving!" His heart sank. He'd done the last thing he wanted to. He hurt her.
"I-I was mad that she sent you away," he admitted.
"I was going to be back. You knew I would be."
"I will straighten it out or die trying," with that he was gone and everyone was okay and waking up.
Rei hugged her tightly trying to comfort her. "What happened Serena?"
"H-he did it...on purpose," she barely could choke out the words.
"He hurt you, didn't he?" She stroked Serena's hair humming trying to comfort her.
"I am ready to face Beryl."
