Start from the beginning
                                    

"Hey what are you reading" Henry asked

I took a book in my lap

"I think it's about the outside walls" I answered him reading the title

"Hey isn't that book illegal" Henry commented

"I don't know" I said looking at the book

"Hey what is in it?" Alex asked

"I don't remember" I said

I don't remember anything at all

All I remember was I was at an expedition but I think I hit my head

"What you don't remember. I thought whenever you read something you apply it to your mind" Alex said

"Which you don't have one" Henry teased Alex

"Hey I'm not that stupid!" Alex yelled

"That's what stupid people say" Henry said smoothly

I stared at them and shifted my gaze to the book

I opened I saw a picture of a lake

No its not a lake

"The ocean" I said the two stop fighting

"Whats an ocean?" Alex asked

The two of them were beside me

"It's a big body of water larger than the lake filled with salt even of how many merchants decided to take out the salt they would never succeed" I read the description

"That's impossible" Henry said

"You haven't seen one yet and your already not believing it" Alex said

"Of course it doesn't sound possible" Henry shrugged

"I will prove you wrong" Alex said determine

"Then let's see the ocean together" I said

All of us smiled at each other

"Hey we should get back it's getting dark" Henry said

"Race you there!!" Alex said and started running Henry followed him

I stood up and started following them

We were near the house

I saw Mrs. Evans beside her were the two boys

I went towards but I bump into something

It was a barrier separating me with them

It was invisible I tried tapping it but my hands won't go through

It doesn't want me to enter

I forcefully went towards them but I couldn't

The others looked at me worried

And then darkness suddenly devoured me again

I opened my eyes in front of me was a big house

At the door was a woman with long beautiful black hair an adult version of me?

"Rei!!"

I jolted my eyes open

"Hey slow down"

I turned to the owner of the voice

"Nanaba?" I said

"Where am I?" I asked

"Your in the infirmary" she informed

"Squad Leader Mike said you were injured so I rush here to see you" she explained
