Akame couldn't comprehend the sight before her eyes. She was standing in the Night raid headquarters with Mine, Lubbock, Leone, Sheele and Bulat surrounding her. Each of them looked as carefree as they were in life, almost as if they had never died. Akame was too stunned as to make any form of movement in response to all of their eyes being fixated on her. Even though these people where her only friends, she felt extremely uneasy around them.

A hand touched her shoulder. "whats wrong Akame?" said an unsettling voice that belonged to Leone "you look like you've seen a ghost. Ahaha." Akame wrenched free of Leones grasp in a swift movement, leaving her shocked. Akames mind was ablaze with scepticism at the scene in front of her and it showed in her expressions towards Leone. What happened back in that cave? Is this reality? Questions, she thought, that she couldn't begin to procure and answer for.

The room fell completely silent for what seemed like an eternity before Akame came to her senses. She knew that whatever happened in the cave could not be explained but she didn't care. If it meant she could see her only friends in the world for even a second then it was worth it. All thoughts of scepticism were dashed and in its place came unfathomable joy and happiness. "um..." muttered a still shocked Leone "ar-are you ok?" Akame had barely let her finish before she proceeded to fiercely hug Leone, tears spilling out of her eyes all the while. Leone had never expected such a drastic change in emotion from Akame and could think of nothing else to do but gently rub her head in pity.

After a few moments of complete bewilderment from the other Night raid members in the room Akame made her thoughts clear. "H-How are you all alive?" she spluttered "I never thought I'd get too see all of you again...". This only caused further bewilderment.

All of the room began to think that Akame was a little delusional, as she rambled on about how they should be dead and coming up with farfetched stories about how they met their demises, to the point that they were the ones feeling uneasy around her.

But something was amiss.. in the room, all the Night raid members stood perfectly alive and the chair at the end of the room signified that Najenda was also present but something was wrong... Tatsumi was nowhere to be seen. The one who saved the capital from complete and utter destruction was absent from the most joyous reunion of Akames life. She brought it to attention "w-where is Tatsumi?" she frailly asked.

If the room looked bewildered before then now they were gobsmacked and at a complete loss for words. "i met a kid called that today" said Leone "he totally fell for my swindling! Ahaha!"

Akame was now joining in with the bewilderment. All thoughts of joy and happiness were forgotten and only one thought remained. What date is it? She wasted no time in asking this and the response shook her to the very core. "its 1024" replied Lubbock "i thought even you had enough common sense to remember." There was no denying it now. The mists back in the cave had not lied to her. When they said 'all shall be corrected' all they had done was transport Akame back to a time when her friends were alive.

In other words: she had time travelled.

She had little time to bemoan over this change of events before the door swung open with a huge crash! "we have a new mission" said the undeniable voice of their commander, Najenda. As she walked in she turned her eyes to Akame, who was feebly trying to stop herself from collapsing onto the floor in lament , and could plainly see her distress. She asked Leone what was wrong with her and she explained all she had said (and done) up to this point, which left Najenda amazed to say the least.

Najenda calmly walked over to Akame, as trying not to cause her to back away in fear, and spoke smoothly to her. "Akame, i don't know if what you're saying is true or just fantasies but right now we have a lead on one of the sickest torturers out there. It's ok if you dont want to come. We'll leave you here with Sheele." She said

Akame knew what mission they were talking about. It was the day when they assaulted a rich family's estate to find that the young mistress was a deranged torturer. But that wasn't what mattered. She couldn't afford to sit behind at headquarters for this mission. If she remembered correctly, as months of wandering has left her mind hazy, then it was also the day they met a very, very special someone.

"T-Tatsumi..." whispered Akame

And there you have it! I've made this to be a time travel fic as i LOVE the idea of going back to change mistakes you did in the past and people not knowing what the hell you're talking about when you mention stuff in the future :D

I plan to be updating this fairly regularly. Emphasise on 'fairly' as coming up with the right words and phrases to use as to not make it boring is quite tricky :/

Anyway, thanks again for reading!
