Chapter 14

"Is there anything else?" Ajuka asked as I was staring at the place it came though. I didn't realise but the distortion had yet to disappear. "The distortion is still there." I said drawn towards it, like it was calling to me. "Can you decipher how it was formed or should I come and have a look?" Ajuka asked with worry in his voice. "I feel like it's calling me, I don't know what's going on." I place my hand on the distortion and nothing, nothing happened.

("Sera how do we close this thing?") I ask thinking she might have a way. (*I'm sorry Scarlet but only you can figure this out.*) Sera said with an apologetic voice. So the behemoth wasn't my test, it was this. I start pushing against it, it has a bit of give. I wonder if this is the same as my storage space, I think while opening it. Comparing it does seem similar in structure, but the function is different.

It might be a rift? But a rift to where, a final fantasy world maybe. Remember what happened when the behemoth came through, the distortion shattered. Looking at the remains of the behemoth, I grab a bit and throw it at the distortion. The distortion rippled, next I throw a stone and it just passes through. "Kara can you come here." I shout, as I press my hand against the distortion again. "Is something wrong Scarlet, you've just been staring at nothing for the past ten minutes." She said walking over.

"The distortion is still there, I want to test something, can you touch where my hand was?" I ask waiting to see what will happen. Kara nodded and held her up and walk forward, and kept walking.

"Stop, do you feel any resistance on your hand?" I ask as Kara just looks at me with worry. "No, there is no resistance at all. Are you sure there is something here." She asked, I just smile and nod.

Since Kara can't touch it or see it, it means it can only effect things that meet a certain requirement. I think I have it, that behemoth having been summoned could effect the distortion, so it's a summoning rift. I sit down and start making calculations, I was surprised at the formulas used. Thinking back over the 9 months with Ajuka, I can tell these formulas are a lot different from this worlds.

I finally have a magic formula that can close it, as I start the distortion pulsates, then starts collapsing in on its self and disappears. I smile and look around to see Kara and for so reason, Ajuka. "What are you doing here Ajuka? And how did you get here so fast?" I asked looking between him and Kara, as they shared what look to be an exasperated expression. "I'm here because Kara was worried about you, and I didn't get here quick you've been sitting there in your own world for two days." He said with a sigh. "Two days, I thought it was only 30 minutes." I said scratching my head.

I feel like this is becoming a trend. I sigh as I start to stretch, looking at the floor I see a load of food packets scattered about. "I ate while on auto pilot again, didn't I?" I ask at no one in particular. "Yes, but what where you doing, Kara told me you were going on about a distortion that she couldn't see. And when I arrived, I too couldn't see it." Ajuka said with a worry in his voice. "Yes it seems only I could see and touch it. It's formula was like nothing I have ever seen." I said still in wonder about what formulas I could make.

We start making our why to the hotel, while me and Ajuka were talking about different formulas. Once there Ajuka pulled out two cards and handed one to me and the other to Kara. "You should go sightseeing while you're here and these cards are so you can visit the shrines." Ajuka said with a smile. "I was wondering how we were going to sightsee, Kara where should we go first." I ask excitedly.
