Nick held the side of his head as he was assaulted by emotions.
He felt warmth, but he also felt deep terror.
He remembered two people.
A man and a woman.
They felt… nice and warm.
He remembered a drawing.
'No!' Nick shouted in his mind, steering his thoughts away from the topic with unending discipline.
Aria looked at Nick, noticing that something was amiss with him.
"Is everything okay?" she asked.
"No, I mean, yes. Everything's fine," he said, taking a deep breath.
Nick closed his eyes.
'Why now?' he thought.
Naturally, Nick knew what had just happened.
His brain was trying to remember his life before he was ten.
But that was dangerous.
