Entry~ [Continued from the last page]
I'm laying here, under a sleeping Rika and freezing my butt off. After a creepy dream like that, can you really blame me?
I wander over to the center, only to realize there is a whole bunch of people there. ( Jinx, Rika, Raz, Rin. ) We talk for a little bit, when who decides to show up in a crappy hologram?
Gio, who else? Anyways, I learn that they're at the last day they can stay, and still need to find Duckie. Also, Dae apparently lost his memory.
Gio shows me a bag of powder, and I suggest showing it to Dae in hopes that it triggers his memory.
(He also makes a comment about me looking like I went through hell myself. The last thing I want to be reminded of is how badly I've shrunk.)
My attention is then caught by Rika, only for us to argue about the pendant again. ( I feel less regret giving it to her now. )
Gio fades away somewhere between this, commenting on checking to see if Dae's body is okay.
I tell the others I'm going to check on him, ( Just in case his body isn't well. ) and they follow.
As soon as I draw near the doorway, I hear something like glass crunching...
I manage to stop Jinx and Raz before they enter, and I run around to the back of the building. The whole window is missing, Dae is gone, and I see a fringe of a cloak before it disppears.
The others come out of the office, looking a bit confused. We decide to head to the center, and what do we find?
A piece of Dae's pj's, some of it damp with blood.
I see a chance to find him, and Rin hands me some chalk to make a quick arcane circle.
After warning everyone (multiple times) to stand back, I place my hands on the ground and mumble the chant.
The circle glows blood red and when I stare down into the circle, I see something rather odd...
Fire, everywhere. Then an airship, hovering above with a white haired captain at the wheel. I almost think it's Dae, but if it is, (I'm still not sure.) he isn't the Dae that the rest of us are used to.
This is the point when I realize something is going to go wrong. I open my mouth and scream a warning, before the circle suddenly erupts into flames. Then the ice suddenly bursts upward in an explosion, and I feel something sharp and burning slash into my arm.
The water of the lake is freezing cold when I hit it, and it numbs me into shock. Everything seems to slow down as I sink...it's comforting in a freaky, smothering way.
I watch the water ripple as Jinx dives down to reach me, followed quickly by the others.
I feel myself black out.
Then rushing air, and I'm back above again, once again aware of how bad my sickness is.
( My memory blurs here.) I try to tell them about the image as they heal me. Jinx and Rika are looking scared.
( I didn't mean to scare everyone. Though I'm so freaking worried about Jinx, what if I die? It's a possibility now. )
I fall asleep, and have a freaky dream. When I wake up, I swear the puppets are still there.
Fall back asleep, telling everyone to get dry clothes, worrying about Jinx.
Next thing I know I'm in bed, with clean clothes. Here I am writing this by candlelight, worrying about Gio and whoever went with him never coming back, about Jinx probably crying in her bed, about Rika and whatever mess she's gotten herself into, about....about everything and everyone.
The Snowflake Ball is this week. I might fall. Morningstar...I think I need Morningstar...
Rika needs mother's pendant more than me. If magic can help me, then I can go off looking for a cure.
Here's to another night of staying up worrying.
