Tale of Discovery

Sister? I remember her. It's quite bizarre that the only thing, no... person, I can remember from my previous life is my sister. I've even forgotten who I used to be. The most abnormal thing is that I feel like whatever that has happened to me is guiding my thoughts, even though I don't remember anything.

"It's been a short while, Victor.", she says casually.

I'm left speechless. I have several questions. The primary one being, where am I right now, and why is the little sister from my previous life standing in front of me? My name used to be Victor huh? What a nice name.

"Don't worry I will answer whatever question you ask of me, as long as it is within my power to do so.", she continues.

Well, let's start with a basic question,

"Who am I?"

A weird question to ask, I know, but I really have no idea who I am.

"I don't have the authority to answer that yet.", she replies almost instantaneously.

Great. Now, what am I supposed to ask her? Who is she?

"Who are you?" , I ask while expecting another incomplete answer.

"Your guardian angel.", she replies nonchalantly.

What the heck. What's with that answer? Is there a deeper meaning to it or is she just messing with me? It's more likely the latter, but there is a small chance it's the former.

"It seems like this will take longer than it's supposed to, so I've decided to give you a brief report over your current situation before sending you over to the other side.", she says with her expression being as cool as ever.

"You are currently a part of what you originally were. A creation of your own wish. Certain events lead to an unfortunate outcome. That led to you making a risky choice.", she tells me.

"I will now move you over to the other side. It would be much easier for you to understand. Time will be sealed on this side once we move over.", she says while raising her arms to the sides.

My vision goes black for an instant before it returns. I am no longer in the endless white space. I look around and notice that I am familiar with the place - Italy.

Foro Romano - The Roman Forum. Ruins of the ancient Roman civilization. I look around and realize that there doesn't seem to be a lot of people outside right now.

A little blue orb forms in front of me, floating gently 5 ft above the ground.

"Follow me.", resounds the voice of my sister within my mind.

The orb guides me towards the Roman Colosseum. Right towards the center. As soon as I'm standing at the center, another headache hits me, this time I remember, no, receive(?) a memory.

"If you are currently in the Colosseo and have Juno nearby, we have succeeded. We made a choice. A choice that would affect your whole being. I was very skeptical of the suggestion you made. The chances of it succeeding were nigh impossible. Yet here you are."

"Anyways, we used to be one of the great ones, but due to the interference of an outsider as well as a traitor among us, we lost a war. Facing the reality of our situation, you made a suggestion that required the two of us to sacrifice something of great importance to ourselves. You sacrificed your power in order to further increase the chances of success, while I am to sacrifice my sentience for the cause."

"Your powers should be in a sealed state right now, as well as your memories. I used my power to reverse the cause of our destruction, giving you the time you need to regain your strength. Your power should gradually unseal itself as time passes. I wish you the best of luck in facing off against the upcoming calamity. -Janus."

Ok... That didn't answer most of my questions, but it cleared some stuff up for me at least. So basically, something happened to me before, causing me to sacrifice my power to become what I am right now.

"Prepare for transportation to the Rift", her voice resounds within my mind once again.

My vision becomes dark and returns abruptly, finding myself on the bed I had woken up on earlier. My body feels normal. I lift myself up from the bed and notice that someone is beside it. The silver-haired girl. She must've been worried sick. I feel uneasy understanding that I'm the cause of her distress.

I extend my hand and brush her head ever so slowly. Her hair is silky and smooth. Her scent is sweet. I wonder what she is to the current me. Girlfriend, perhaps? I have no experience with romance, so it would be troublesome if she is.

I get off the bed and move towards a mirror on the wall. What I see, leaves me dazed for quite a while.

Short silver hair, with grey eyes. I don't know how, but I look both fragile and toned at the same time. I am taller than I used to be in my previous life. About 5.5 ft. tall, I'd say. I take a good look at my body and notice that there is a glow inside me. Three colors, with the most vibrant one being red, then violet, then yellow.

"There is a core within every being that is the amalgamation of their power.", suddenly a voice resounds within my head, almost scaring me to death.

"Hey sis, I was admiring my looks, don't suddenly interrupt me!" , I joke, but she doesn't respond.

"Jokes aside, why is your voice in my head, and where are you." , I ask sincerely.

"I have a faint imprint left on you, in order to allow me to see your state of mind, and take actions according to the results. It should go away in a minute or two, so feel free to ask me any questions you have right now.", she replies coolly.

"What am I supposed to do now?" , I ask bluntly.

"Get stronger.", an answer as equally blunt.

Man, I feel like I will be facing some hardships from now on... Oh well, I'm sure it will somehow work out in the end.
