Jumkou burst into the room Sachiel is in, without warning. The barging of the door caused Sachiel to get alarmed. However, he was reading a book, enjoying his free time. “Sachiel! There’s something I need to tell you!” She seemed more serious than ever. This was unlike Jumkou, in Sachiel’s eyes. Since the time he has known her, he always saw her as a happy individual. “H- Jumkou, you seem rather stressed today. Is something the matter?” He closed his book, looking at her. Jumkou hesitated for a moment. She knew that if she was ever going to say it, she had to say it right here, right now, to Sachiel. If not, she would lose this moment forever. She hesitated even more now. .:. Just come out with it, Jumy... It’s not... or never! .:. “Listen. Sachiel. I know this is going to sound insane but.” She stopped but then took a deep breath, holding her composure. “I’m from the future. I know it sounds crazy! But I didn’t end up at Snowfall Heights for no reason! I travelled back in time and ended up there. I... I come from the year 2220.” “...” He looked her in the eye. Future? There was no such thing as time travel. How could you ever time travel without the equipment needed? Overall, it was impossible. No one could bend space-time continuum in a way like that. “It... appears that the doctor failed to examinate your injuries properly, Jumkou... perhaps you should sit down for a bit. All this talk about the future makes you seem insane... It is hard to believe such a t-“ “I know it seems hard to believe but the Soul is capable of anything!” She released her Soul-Aura for the first time, matching the level of a powerful person such as Sachiel. It had a time-ticking sound embedded into it with a white outline and a grey whooshing air. “I wield the Soul of Time. When Mr. Magami was here the other day, the look on his face showed confusion, am I right? How did I know his name, you may ask? You may say that I’ve met him before but I have never met him before, not yet at least!” “Perhaps... repressed memories returned...?” He still couldn’t believe it. “Agh... Sachiel! On Nuvaria, he fights against the two souls of evil, Kaioshun-Rymela and Kariya-Vecta.” Jumkou held her chest like she was venting. She was venting, but she was also telling him about the dangers that were to come. “You have to believe me, Sachiel! That will happen in the coming year... Nuvaria... will be destroyed!” All of these were her memories recollected from when she was younger. Sachiel’s interest was sparked, but he still couldn’t believe it. This felt even more stupid now. “Sachiel, there is something larger at hand here! I didn’t come alone! I was... followed! From the darkness that destroys this galaxy in the future... 20 years from now!” “...” Sachiel was left speechless. A level-headed person with unwavering mindset and charisma, was left speechless. “...” “Agh!” She banged her head against the table. “Listen! If you don’t believe me, fine! But at least get me off-world so I don’t lose focus of my mission! I have to find a man named Flynnigan Shotaro because he is the key to prevent the Milky Way from falling into absolute entropy!” Sachiel was once again taken aback by the sudden slam on the table. Was this girl just crazy? It really seemed like it. And if she was crazy, she needed help. The rehabilitation didn’t have effect on her, so Sachiel needed to take matters into his own hands. “I’m sorry... I don’t... I don’t want to go through it all again... I’ll lose all sense of myself... this time... This need to work... this time, it has to! Sachiel it has to! Otherwise I’m done! I’m done with all this! I can’t survive another time! You need... to believe me... you have to... believe me... anyone... please... help me... help me!” Tears began to slowly stream out of Jumkou’s eyeballs. The future she lived in was nothing but suffering, there wasn’t even a single day where the skies were clear, and the stars shined bright. Sachiel, seeing Jumkou crying, stood up and w
