Fast Forward Time

They heard a loud scream as the entire room became dark for a couple of seconds before light flooded in again. 

"Princess. Are you ok?" Ray quickly got up and ran to the girl as she lay writhing on the ground. These types of magic should not have been disturbed at all costs. "Lillian. She's not responding." 

"Ray. Can you teleport or summon portals?" Lillian asked, voice full of pain as she tried to push herself off the ground as well. 

"No." He said, picking the princess, who had fainted, up in his arms. 

"Damnit." She hissed as they heard the clock chime to signal the time of day three times. "What the hell?" 

"How is it already time?" Ray said, standing up and looking at all the other clocks in the room. They all tell the same time.
