"Who are you?"
It was dark in the small room and the blood on the floor and walls made it only that much more eerie, not that she minded, but neither did her companion, the male lay doubled over the oddly drawn circle on the floor, his body twtiching in pain.
"You don't remember me?" He gasped out with a look of shock and agony on his pale face. The girl shook her head.
"No, who are you?" She asked again, kneeling beside him.
"No one..." He said sadly, rolling onto his back, and letting his hand fall from his stomach where his clothes were dark and torn. He smiled up at her and gently reached up to touch her face with a sticky hand.
"Alexis...forgive me..I was...I was wrong..." The hand fell, and blue eyes blinked back tears that she didn't understand, much less the reason she shed them.
She reached down and closed the dark eyes, turning with a sigh and left.
A pale hand brushed the wild hair out of her face, and Kiri looked about her, there wasn't much to go on, but there were a few small towns that she could see, speckled along the ground below her. That memory was her first in this strange world, and it had only given rise to more questions that she had yet to find an answer for, like what...what on earth was...her palm..there was something there, that both frightened and intrigued her...and she had to find out what it was.
"No sense in waiting any longer." She said with a stretch.
"Let's see what awaits me ahead."
