Chapter 2: Learning the truth

I awoke and found myself in a room with books everywhere. I explored the whole room. So quiet yet so ancient. It is as if these books weren't touched in a lifetime. After a while, I found myself in the middle of the room, where the only source of light came. At the middle was a figure of a hand holding a book as old as the others. I slowly motioned toward it. I knew that this book had something special within it; something that held the secrets hidden from me. As I was about to grab the book, a faint sound whispered words to me

"Do you really want to know the truth? A truth you might regret?"

I stopped at my tracks and closed my eyes. I listened to the voice carefully. It seemed that it came from the wind. I knew it wasn't there, I knew it was everywhere. And so I replied

"Please, please tell me. Why is this happening? Why am I like this? Why?"

I waited a few seconds. Still no reply. As I was about to give up, a image of a young woman appeared before me.

"Do not be frightened child. You asked for the truth and the truth you shall get."

She led me to a table, with the book in her hand. She chanted something and the books at the bookshelves flew out of place. We sat down and she began talking to me once again.

"I know who you really are. Your name is Kathy Lee. You are 13 already. You live in the Azure City. Your friends, Kita and Eve; I suppose you want to know why I know these"

"Yes, yes I do. Please tell me, I'm so confused"

"Last night, you wished for a different world, a world of Magic and Monsters. You wished for technology to be gone from the world. You wished for the entire world to change. And you got it. It was the book that granted these."

"You mean the book dad gave me right? The old book"

"Child, that is no ordinary book. That is the Book of Realities. The holder can change any part of reality, past, present, future. Your dad found this room, never changing even as the wielder wishes."

"So can I change this world back to the world yesterday? I didn't really mean to say those."

"The book only grants, accidentally of consciously does not matter. But if you wish"

She opened the book and flipped it to somewhere in the end. She closed it and returned it to the statue.

"I'm sorry child, I'm afraid I can't change it back"

"Why, why can't the book change the world back?"

"When a world is changed, it leaves a page behind it that book. Only through that page can we change back this world"

"Then tell me how to get it back."

"I am also afraid I do not know where the location of the page is. It is up to you to find it."

"Then you will help me then?"

"I cannot. I am the Guardian of the Book. I cannot leave this forsaken place for it will cause me great agony."

"Then in what way can you help me then?"

She grabbed a book a tore a few pages. She then rolled them and gave them to me.

"If you burn one of these, you will be sent back here. I may have some information on this lost page"

"Thank you, thank you very much. I really appreciate all the help you gave me."

"There is no more time, hurry you must be back to the castle."

"But how?"

"The wind shall drift you to the place you need to be"

I felt a slight breeze and found myself back in the castle. I thought at first it was a dream but then I found the rolled-up pages in my bag. The priest called my name and I stepped in to a portal. I found myself in front of a huge castle or should I call it school. I secluded myself in a corner, put out an apple and ate it. All the other teenagers just passed by. I was alone. Just as about everyone was inside, a shadow eclipsed me and offered a hand.

"Hi. You must be new around here. My name is Gabriel Heavenborn. So you must be an Acolyte too eh?"

I dropped my apple. It was him. DT. I didn't know what to do. But my hand just took his just like instinct. I walked beside him and didn't speak a word. He led me to a room inside the chapel. It was filled with robes of white.

"These are Acolyte robes. One day, I shall walk out of this Academy wearing those as a fully pledged acolyte.

I looked at the one at the left. I saw the clothes beauty. How could someone so religious have such beautiful robes. As I was gazing at the clothes I saw a reflection of someone. I looked closely and it was me, wearing those robes and fighting mushroom-like monsters. Could this be fate? Time told me later on.
