She woke up in a dark room with no idea how she got there. She doesn't remember who she is. Will she ever find out? Will she ever know what happened to her? Will the love that she finds be at the time that she is destined to be? Will she choose security, power, or neither? Or will time choose for her?

Discovery (Revisioned)

I feel Joseph tug on my arm, but I don’t want to let go of my Dad. I don't care if I lived or died. My current self is horrified and I feel like my heart is going to explode with grief. I try to wake myself up again, but I still feel as if I’m being pinned under a heavy truck. 


"Please, come with me. We must go." Joseph urges. 


When I look up, I see the urgent look on his face and I know that I need to leave. I look out at the battle and see that the soldiers are losing the battle. I give my Dad one last kiss on the cheek before I stand up to leave. 


Joseph grabs a hold of my hand and we take off running. I don't know or care where we are heading. I just know that my Dad gave his life for me and I'm not going to let Zarius win. 


Eventually, we come to a clearing in the woods. On the opposite side of the clearing is the man I had noticed in the first village. He’s still standing in the shadows but he has three horses standing beside him.
