"Wh-when are we?" Daisuke stuttered. He stood up and examined himself throughly.
Satoshi rose beside him and brushed off a layer of dust from his arm, "Yes. When Krad attempted to absorb Dark's Magic, he couldn't contain it all and it burst out. The sudden addition of Magic to the room threw our dimension off, and warped us to what I assume is a parallel dimension." He paused, and pulled at his shirt, "And from the change in clothing, we might be different people here. We're obviously older, too."
Daisuke stared at Satoshi, almost in an unbelieving way, "What! This isn't possible!" He looked across the room, looking for a mirror. Once he found it, covered in dust and finger prints, he walked over to it, and wiped it clean with the bottom of his shirt.
And what a surprise met the two of them. They were now approximately twenty, Daisuke was taller, and both of their hair was longer. Both were garbed in old fashioned cloathing that seemed quite familiar.
Satoshi sighed and
shook his head, "This is an interesting predicament."
Daisuke
continued staring at the mirror in horror, "I-I, we, my hair,
what's going on-"
Daisuke's terrified speech was cut off by
a high-pitched screech accompanied by loud, feminine yells, "There
are men in the Women's bathroom!"
Satoshi
grabbed Daisuke by the neck of his shirt and ran out of the bathroom,
his arm up to block off thrown pieces of cosmetics.
The room they had entered was extremely large-
Daisuke's own house could have fit easily within it. The ceiling
was domed and depicted pictures of angels flying, carrying doves and
harps. One short staircase led up, then split into two curved ones,
both going through a different door. But what made Daisuke's eyes
sparkle was not the size of the place, but how the room seemed to be
made of Gold.
He turned to comment of the room to the only
familiar person there, but found Satoshi gone. Startled, he quickly
looked around the room in search of him, but to no avail.
"There
ee is! Monsieur Raoul!" Two men ran over to Daisuke, linked arms
with him on each side, and dragged him out of the room, "Monsieur,
we thought we had lost you!"
Daisuke stared at the two, "Erm,
I think you've mistaken me for someone else- I'm Daisuke, not
'Raoul'." Raoul? From the Phantom of the Opera!
The two immediately let go of him and stared at him, the shorter one slightly slapping his cheek to get his attention, "Now now Raoul, we know your excited for the performance tonight, but don't be going delusional on us!"
Daisuke blinked at them. He couldn't leave this room, he was looking for... What was he looking for again? His mind raced back- he was planning to see a grand musical tonight featuring Carlotta (who seemed to fancy him), and he had walked into the Bathroom to wash his hands, but he had accidentally went into the womens. Daisuke gasped, Where did those memories come from! I'm not from here... But where am I from? And who was I looking for... Confused, he looked to the two men, who returned smiles to him.
"Come now, Monsieur Raoul. You must prepare for tonight!" They grabbed his arms once more and marched him out the door, where his own chariot and two white horses stood.
Slightly annoyed, Daisuke hopped into the cart, his body climbing up it as if he had done it a thousand times, Though I have done it thousands of times before... Wai- what? No I... What's going on? He realized he was standing, the horses' reins in his hands and the cart already moving away. Why were these new memories appearing? And wasn't he supposed to be looking for someone...? No, two people... Possibly one male and one female...
A woman standing
outside of a new pub was ringing a bell and shouting, "Come to
Reek's new Pub! All drinks are half price!"
Daisuke nearly
fell down, Reeks? That sounds familiar... AH! Riku! I'm
supposed to be looking for Riku and Satoshi! Why did I, how
could I forget!
The man behind
Daisuke spoke, "Monsieu Raoul, it seems that you have missed the
turn."
Daisuke looked back, seeing a past fork in the road. He
silently cursed and turned the horses around.
He entered his mind once more to discover that he had forgotten the remembered.
