Ren gritted her teeth as she watched the horrible scene unfold on the mirrors surface. Mr bunny had moved up to her side and watched the scene unimpressed as well.
He carefully studied Rens expressions and emotions, because Zoms like him had none after all. He always was curious to know more about human emotions and would intently watch Reverie, whenever the girl was overcome with them for that matter. This time the girl showed anger, she rarely let her rage show this obviously, at least her old self wouldn't, so he thought that this was a rare opportunity to study her.
"Will you kill him?" he asked at last and the girl dropped her head a little in thought.
Her eyes were covered by her bangs but the bunny was sure to feel the burning gaze coming from them. After a moment of intense silence, the girl raised her head again, giving a long exhausted sigh. She had visibly calmed down and the bunny was confused why that was. He decided to keep watching her.
"I don't know who he is, but he must be from Olympus, not everyone can summon a chimera after all. He's probably one of the twelve. If I mess with him now I'll have whole Olympus on my back, it would be quite inconvenient to get into a fight with them now, even though I really wanna end this dude right now" she said in a calm voice after all.
"Am I right to assume you plan to make Olympus your enemy in the future?" the bunny asked with caution. He didn't wanna egg her on to anything after all.
"As if I would let these assholes go, I'm not that kind. I'm just too weak to take them on right now"
The bunny nod in agreement. He wasn't happy about the news that she would make Olympus their enemy but he had no choice, than to accept it.
"Hopefully you won't regret it...Your old self tried very hard to keep good relations with them after all" he said while his voice grew lower and quieter with each word.
"I'm not her. Please don't compare me to my past self. I live in the here after all." she exclaimed even more exhausted now.
The bunny kept quiet in response. She was right and he knew it. He also had no plan of annoying her even further, she was scary when she threw a rage fit in the past and he had no death wish as of yet.
The girl kept staring into the mirror, as they soon heard a soft groan coming from the bed. The two turned around and saw Miyu stretching herself. She had woken up from her deep slumber and looked much more refreshed.
The silver haired woman gave a quick glance at her friend before standing up.
Reverie walked over to the couch at the same time and sat down on it. With light taps on the seats fabric next to her, she indicated her friend to take place. Miyu followed silently and made herself comfortable next to her.
"I hope you are well rested " Reverie said.
"Yes" Miyu replied.
The two kept it brief with their small talk and Ren came straight to the point.
"Miyu, tell me about my old self. What kind of person was I?"
The womans face paled significantly at that request. She wasn't prepared for this to come now. She knew her friend would ask someday but not this soon. Trying to find the right words, Miyu looked at her friend. She had an earnest expression on her face and was ready to accept whatever she was about to hear. Miyu couldn't brush her friend off, when she saw that resolve in her eyes. She took a sharp breath in and started telling Reverie about her old self.
The girl listened intently without Interrupting even once. Ren wondered if the person Miyu talked about so intently was really her. The personality of her couldn't be any further from her current self. She decided to trust Miyus words for now and kept listening. About an hour had past when Miyu was finally finished.
"And that concludes it" she said at last.
Reverie closed her eyes, as she leaned back and crossed her legs ,while supporting her chin on her knuckles. The information had to sink in still but the girl lost no time to ask her first and most important question.
"Miyu. Did I ever fall in love?"
The one in question paled even more now, she was even less prepared for that question.
"Yes..."
"How did it go?" the girl continued to ask.
"You were betrayed by the one person you loved and trusted most. After that...you weren't quite the same anymore." Miyu replied in a saddened voice.
"I see. What about my powers? How strong did I use to be?" she asked this time.
"You had the potential to become the strongest being in existence" Miyu replied solemnly.
"The potential huh...and how strong was I ?"
"You could take on all of Olympus at once, except the top three, as an example" Miyu replied.
"So I beat the shit out of Olympus before?" the girl asked.
"Uhhh...umm...you did almost kill Aphrodite before...and it took whole Olympus to stop you, so yeah I guess..." Miyus voice got lower when saying this.
"I see..."
-So that's why my old self maintained good relations after all. She couldn't take on Zeus and the other two yet and she kinda owed Olympus. What a joke, once I'm strong enough I'll get rid of them. But why did my old self want to kill Aphrodite so badly? I wonder what she did...
As Reverie mulled over the information she got, Miyu watched her intently. Miyu was in a dilemma ,as she wasn't supposed to tell the current Reverie anything but she did regardless. She didn't tell everything but it was enough information to lead her to ways, she wasn't supposed to take. Miyu only hoped, that the current version of her friend would just keep doing her own thing without getting herself involved in the past.
*thud*
The two women jolted up in surprise as they looked straight ahead to the bed. There in front of it lay Michael, now fully awake from shock.
He fell out of the bed apparently and rubbed his head in pain.
As his eyes met the ones of his party members, his face got red as a beet and he started laughing in an attempt to cover up his embarassment.
Reverie instantly tuned in on the laughter and Miyu gave a quick smirk of her own. After their laugher died down, Michael got up and stood in front of the two others.
"Will we go look for big bro Gilbert now?" he asked in a pleading voice with puppy eyes.
"We would go to him even without you begging me you know?" Ren exclaimed with a giggle.
The boy pouted at that. His expression was completely different than his thoughts though.
-big sis didn't forget about big bro then, that's a relief. Hope he is fine...
The boy lost in thoughts now dazed off due to them and the girl turned back to Miyu.
"Let's prepare for departure. Everyone is well rested by now and we know where to go to next, so let's get ready"
Miyu nodded in response and the party started to prepare for departure. After getting dressed, packing rations and checking the mirror for any other useful information, the three passed through it to meet up with the other party.
