Saeko's POV:
Troy and I went to find someone to help us cheer Alicia, we left the large crowd but we couldn't find anyone, "let's head back" Troy said, I nodded and so we started walking back but then we heard a scream. So we picked up the pace and ran over as fast as we could. When we got there, no one was there, no teachers, students or anyone that we could see, just a very large crater, "is someone in that crater?!" Troy asked, I tried to get a better look but ended up slipping and falling down the side of the crater.
When I stopped sliding, I look up to a girl with her back towards me in a blue and purple dress, she looked familiar somehow.
Troy's POV:
Saeko fell into the crater, almost felt sorry for her. I slid down the side of the crater to get to her but when I got there, I saw her on the ground looking at a girl in a purple and blue dress. She noticed us and turned her head to look at us. Her face stained by tears. "Alicia?!" We yelled. She just stood there among the awkward silence.
Alicia's POV:
They both yelled at me when they saw me in the middle of the crater. "Uh....hi" I said awkwardly, wiping away my tears, "what happened?!" Saeko screamed "well after you two left, water started floating out of the ground around me then it turned into some weird spacial energy then BOOM! I think it something to do with an event three years ago" I said a bit too quickly but somehow they understood what I was saying.
"So what happened three years ago?" Troy asked, sitting down on the ground with Saeko who was down on the ground,
"Well..." I mumbled. "Three years ago, there was a huge fire and my parents were killed" I said, "I was the one who stopped it..." I said "how?" Saeko questioned "well during the fire, I was lying down, crying because everyone around me always called me weak and useless because I just let get killed so I promised myself that I would become strong enough to help only those close to me, my friends, the rest of humanity didn't matter anymore but then suddenly, a strange crystal was floating above me, talking to me, asking me if I wanted to stronger, I told it yes so I sat up but the crystal ended up in my eye, turning it purple" I said, pointing to my right eye, "that crystal gave me what I needed to help others, but I ended up causing a flood I so I decided to keep it a secret"
"Ok so you have powers, a new dress and a purple eye" Saeko said "yeah" I replied "..." she just looked at me for about a minute, "you ok" I asked "yeah I'm fine" she said, snapping out of her trance.
Troy stood up "so what do we do now?" He asked "I don't kno-", before I could finish my sentence, people in mechanical suits were flying above us, aiming their guns.
"Prepare to die, Mermaid" one of them said.
