More discoveries
Zoë
Huh? No way! How is it possible?? Do people lose power just like that?
John
They don't! Unless some external force acts, it's not possible!
Alice
Do you... Do you think that someone is deliberately trying to suck my power?
John
... There's a chance ...
Zoë
Master John... do you know anyone who knows a lot about power and potential?
John
Yes... I do. Infact, she's my sister. I'll take you to meet her tomorrow.
Zoë
(turns to Alice) Hey... apart from losing your power, how do you feel now?
Alice
I'm Okay! I feel good already!
John
... Alright then. I'll be leaving. Goodbye! Oh, and don't forget training tomorrow!
Zoë
(Deep in thought) Alice... I don't understand one thing... it wasn't Alfred who got the Pearl... Didn't you say that he was the one looking for it?
Alice
That's right... Do you think many people are after the pearl?
Zoë
That's very much possible! We need to be careful... Afterall it's a very precious item
Zoë
That's why we must also meet Chelsia as soon as possible and give the Pearl to her... I don't know if it is right for us to use it...
Alice
You're right ... The pearl must be under her protection.
Zoë
But... she has been captured...
Zoë
We need to save her...
Alice
But first let's get something to eat... I'm hungry!
Zoë
I'll make something for you ... take rest till then
Zoë
Alice! Come 'ere! Food's ready!
Alice
Woah!! It looks amazing! ... Why do you offer me such good food suddenly?
Zoë
I ... I'm worried about you... I fear that you'll become weak...
Alice
Don't worry, I'm fineeee!! 😄
Alice
So... we have practice tomorrow... We need to wake up early...
Awkwardness surrounds the place for no reason
Alice
Ok... I'm going to sleep...
Zoë
Alright. Wake me up early in the morning. I don't want to deal with that stupid alarm clock.
Alarm Clock
(...Where did I go wrong...)
John
Hey ladies! How are you feeling?
John
You are not yourself... What's wrong?
John
Tell me what's bothering you. There's no use training when your mind is not present here
Zoë
... Okay... I... I've been feeling weird... There's a rushed flow inside me... Also, my mind has been going blank very often ... It's like I see nothing but darkness for a few seconds altogether...
Alice
And you kept this a secret from me for so long??
Alice
How long has it been since this started?
Zoë
... It started yesterday...
John
... I'm taking you to my sister now itself! This cannot be delayed any longer. She better check you
John takes them to his sister, Selene
Selene
Hi John! Oh! Who are these beauties?
Selene
*Very experienced in the art of Magic
*Is very outgoing
*27
John
Hi Selene! They are Alice and Zoe...
Zoë
Woah...! so pretty... You're the beauty here!
Selene
*giggles* So... what are you here for?
Alice
I... suddenly lost all my power yesterday and we want to know why... Also Zoe has been feeling weird... There's something wrong with us...
Selene
... I see. John, could you leave us alone for a minute?
Selene
I'll check Alice first.
Selene
(Places two fingers on Alice's forehead) (Closes eyes)
Selene
Funny thing. You're power has left your body willingly. It seems that your body cannot handle much power
Selene
I believe that there was excess power build up in you, and it exploded, thereby leaving you powerless.
Alice
Huh?! Does that mean I cannot use magic anymore?
Selene
Until the holes have been mended, you can't accumulate any amount of power in you
Alice
(sad) I see... how long will that take?
Selene
Uh... about 3 to 5 years, depending on your body's mending capacity...
Alice
!!! That's way too long
Selene
Yeah... but you can use artifacts to increase the rate of healing
Selene
Ok. Now it's Zoe's turn
Zoë
(goes near Selene) Okay
Selene
Huh?! This power! There's a lot of it! ... Are you restraining yourself?
Zoë
Yes, since it's uncomfortable to have it all the time...
Selene
Show me your maximum!
Zoë
(Suddenly shines bright!) Huh?! This has never happened before!
Selene
Woah! You've got so much potential in you!!
Selene
But why are you shining?
Zoë
I don't know! This has not happened before!!
Selene
Tell me how you feel exactly
Zoë
I feel a rushing sense in my veins... I'm also blacking out often... It started yesterday
Selene
! Coincidence? I think not! I think I understand what's happening here. Your body is sucking Alice's exploded power. Her power exploded due to the weakening of her body...
Zoë
Huh?! But why me? Why is my body sucking her power? And why am I blacking out?
Selene
... I have a feeling that you are related to Alice, by blood somehow. You should check it out.
Selene
As for the next question, it's just your brain and body trying to allocate the new found power. Your brain is working overtime, hence the blacking out
Alice
Wait a min. Zoe's related to me?!
Zoë
Huh? Oh yeah! Huh?! What? 😳
Selene
... It's just a speculation... but you have to figure it out
Selene
Alright. That's it then. Let's inform John
John
Hey! so... what happened there?
They tell him about the new-found theories
John
Oh! That's shocking! I didn't expect this at all...
John
So... I've decided something. From now on Zoe and Alice will have different training. Alice will train with me, while Zoe will be trained by Selene
John
Is that fine with you Selene?
Selene
... Yeah. It's alright
John
🙂 Call me John from now on... After all I'm not your master anymore
Alice
Alright... that is set. Now what do we do?
Selene
You can return home. Zoe, I'll meet you tomorrow.
Selene
Just Selene is fine 😄
