Based on what Indra had told me, I would only have 1 week to spend with my family for possibly the final time, and I wasn't going to waste that.
So I decided to spend my final seven days just being with my family, then the final day arrived, and I had to be sure that they wouldn't think about me.
"Hey mom, dad, sis? Do you think you could all come to the living room, I have something really important to tell all of you." I had already talked it over with Indra and Azel about what I could do to make this go as smoothly as possible, and I think I found the best solution.
My family didn't question it they just looked at each other and started making their way to the living room.
"Once you do this Kiddo we are only going to have 3 hours before we leave, you need to be absolutely certain." Azel had always been kind to me, Indra as well. They both wanted to be sure that whatever choices I made were of my own free will, and this is what I wanted.
"Yes I know, if I want to get stronger I'll have to learn everything I can. And the only way to do that is by learning different things from other universes" my family had finally gathered in the living room like I asked, so I guess I could get on with my plan.
I took a deep breath and used enhance on my mind and created a link from my mind to all three of theirs. And I just needed to use seduction for the next step. Only this time I used my voice rather than my thoughts.
"I will be leaving for a trip in another universe but you will all believe that i am in an academy on the other side of the world, you will not write, call or even visit me but you will believe that I am doing well, you are going to all spend time together without me and nothing should change, I will be gone for a long time but you all accept that fact, that's all I had to say" I needed to be thorough as to not trigger any adverse responses that would make the ability fail, this seemed to have worked because all of them just smiled and nodded.
"It's ok sweetie, we know this is something you really want and we won't take this away from you, I just hope you think of us at the academy you are going to" my mom was the first to break the silence, she of course started tearing up at the fact that this could be the last time in a while she'll get to see me.
My dad said nothing but I could tell he was happy that I had found some thing I wanted to do, and my sister did her usual thing and
Just called me an Idiot then left, I could tell she was upset but it's best this way.
"I'll be leaving in an hour, I just have to get a few things." I stood up and made my way to my room.
I had never left the sectors to go anywhere so this would be the first time I'm leaving my home. I wonder what it would be like in the other universe, would it be dangerous, fun, boring? I couldn't tell but I understood that this needed to be done.
"Get everything you need ready, once we leave we won't be able to return until 5 years have passed." My universal travel kit consisted a small Steel dagger that my dad had made me, a journal to document my travels and abilities I create, a sleeping bag, a canteen for water and food for 5 day. The final thing I needed was a ring that my mother gave me, it was a ring that my grandfather had left for me and it was basically my good luck charm.
"Ok Guys, I think I'm ready, let's go to 813B"
They responded in unison with "as you wish" and after a few minutes of waiting a small light appeared in front of me, first it was gold, then purple and finally, turquoise. Then it expanded in all 4 directions like a rectangle, and in the center was a endless spiral, then from the center of the spiral, lines shot out like veins.
"It is done, we can only hold this for 1 minute, so do try to hurry." Taking one last look at my room and the home I have know when nearly all my life, I couldn't help but feel saddened, but I knew I had to go.
I turned my attention to the portal and jumped in.
What I thought would be an instant arrival turned into a 5 minute process of floating endlessly through a turquoise spiral, it was nauseating and I could feel my head turning. What was only 5 minutes felt like hours had passed and finally I saw a light, and I fell through.
What met my vision I could only describe in a single word. "Beautiful"
There was a vast field, filled with corn, wheat and carrot and in the center was a decent sized town, the fields surrounding it were too surrounded by trees that reached the sky and even then mountains surround the forest, i couldn't think of something in my previous world that even came close to looking like this.
"Welcome to Nevia kiddo, the city in the hidden forest"
