Chapter 14: What To Do Now?
After a short while of telling her friends all about Yuki and their mission to recover her memories, the group stood, trying to process what she had said. "Hah!", Riven laughed, breaking the silence, "That is the stupidest thing I have ever heard! A nice mystical magical creature here? You've got to be kidding!". "I hate to say this", Flora started, looking apologetically at Tecna, "But I have to agree with Riven. Why would there be a friendly form of magic in the Omega Dimension? And if there was, how could it survive? There's nothing to live on down here and even if there was, the convicts would either take it or… harm the creature… to say the least". Tecna was a little offended that her friends would doubt what she had said but tried not to let it get to her, she sighed, "Guys, as logical as your statement was, how would the convicts survive if there is nothing at all to live on?", this made Riven and Flora be quiet. "Okay then", Bloom said confidently, her eyes meeting with Tecna's, "You're in charge, what do we do now?".
"As I said before, Yuki ensured me that without regaining my memory we wouldn't leave this planet, so let's start with the basics, do any of you know about my past experiences regarding Omega? Musa, surely, as my room-mate, you would've overheard parts of my nightmares?", Tecna questioned, precise and right to the point. Musa stood thinking for a second before replying, "Nothing out of the ordinary ever happened, you just had a restless sleep, that's all". Tecna sighed, this was getting them nowhere. No suggestions came from the group, the one time Tecna got to be in charge, she had no clue what to do. Just then, an idea came into her head, "How about we search for the nearest camp? There's got to be some clue there!". She seemed to be pleased with her idea but Stella however, did not, "What!? Just wait one second!", she started, "Are you saying that we should just go somewhere surrounded by criminals?! You're insane! I'm sorry Tecna, I know I agreed I'd trust you with my life, but this is one exception, losing your memory must've made you forget how totally evil these guys are!". Timmy finally spoke up, he hated to disagree but somebody had to back up Stella or they would all walk into a death-trap, "Tec, Stella's right. I know you have the most experience with surviving in this dimension but walking straight into an area swarming with the Magical Dimension's worst criminals isn't the best idea. We'll just have to try to get your memory back some other way". "Okay", Tecna sighed, "It's just I - I don't know what to do".
