"This doesn't look like a memory."
She pinched her cheek but the pain felt real.
"No, this is real…"
"Did I regress?"
"HOW?"
"How did I get my degree?"
"Is this even possible?This is beyond absurd."
Her breathing quickened. Her hands shook as she stumbled toward the dusty wooden desk, her eyes locking onto the old calendar.
She traced her fingers over the date.
February 13, 789.
Her entire body went cold.
"No… NO!"
This was just prior to destruction.
The day the mansion and Astross turned into a graveyard with people sacrificed and killed.
Ariana was the only one who survived because she had been locked away in the basement.
Her heart pounded in her chest.
"I can't let everyone die. I don't care if my parents live or die, but the people here... they shouldn't have to suffer."
Her jaw tightened.
Her hands clenched into fists.
She wouldn't let this happen.
Determined, Ariana changed her ragged clothes and marched to the door.
A loud knock startled her.
