Isla's Rage

"YOU'RE THE REASON THEY KILLED HIM!" Isla yelled, I honestly had no clue what she meant by that, or 'him', I was just extremely shocked to see my best friend again, unfortunately seeing her face stirred up another attack of memories again. A thousand memories and images flew in front of my eyes, god! Not now! This was the worst time for my memories to hit back, my head felt heavy, with the overwhelming amount of memories that returned. As I buckled to my knees, I could hear Evin yelling my name in the background, it grew fainter with each second, damnit, I had to come back!

I felt a sharp pain at my shoulder that made me jolt right back to consciousness, Evin had pierced a small dagger, which had the insignia of a rose embedded in it, it blazed the same shade of deep blue as the rose in the garden as he chanted something that I couldn't understand. Energy surged through me and I felt alright again, I noticed that my wounds healed too.

"And there goes my last save point, Mez, what did I tell you, it was a damned stupid idea for you to stay back!"

"Hey, you're the one that initially suggested I come along you asshole! Did you forget that?"

Just then an arrow came flying in our direction and barely missed us, we decided to stop squabbling in the middle of the battlefield and fight instead. "Ok so here's the plan Mez, you distract your friend, while I search for some breakthrough to escape!" Evin said, but unfortunately, Isla lunged straight at me, with full force while skillfully throwing Evin off balance. Damnit, I was as good as dead, considering the fact I had no idea how to use my powers or at least what the hell they even were.

I had taken a longsword just for the sake of self-defense, but it seemed like I had to put it to use now, I guess I had muscle memory of how to use a sword, as I managed to block her attacks without much of a problem, but I kept slipping as my body was still recovering from the shock of the healing spell. She had a small dagger, but from what I had seen, no one here used normal weapons, for example, those arrows had a mind of their own, they changed direction in the air, I was dumbfounded on seeing all of this, and that dagger that I got a cut from seemed to drain energy. Usually, I could come back to my senses even after a memory attack, but this time, it had seriously almost gotten me killed.

If it weren't for Evin I would probably be dead now. Well, he was right about me staying being a bad idea, I had slowed the escape down, but, I needed to get my memories back, and I was determined, if I had simply fled, I wouldn't have seen Isla or gotten my memories. I wanted to save her, she seemed to be controlled by some presence. I might have a chance of recovering my powers too, basically, this was a golden opportunity, but with a heavy cost. I needed to be extra careful.

Suddenly, everything stopped moving, what the heck was this! But Isla was moving, and she headed straight for Evin who was stuck in his path fighting someone else, if I was right she was trying to bait me, could she actually control time?! Wait no, you cannot set two times for two people, time wasn't something you could control, it seemed as if I could move only at the speed of a snail while she could walk with ease. No, this wasn't time control, this was a different space, she had created a small space within our dimension, it was simply an illusion that time had slowed down. Space control eh? Now that's something you don't see every day.

I felt panic run through my veins as she neared Evin, I had to do something and fast! How the hell was I supposed to break the damned spell that slowed me down! Her dagger gleamed violet as she held it against his throat, wait a second if she was the one who created this and she was in control all I had to do was grab her attention, and this false dimension would fall apart. In that split second all I could think of was to throw the longsword I had in her direction, of course, it didn't hit her, but the loud clang of the heavy longsword against the floor distracted her. I lunged towards her and pushed Evin back, she aimed right at my heart with her dagger, but I caught hold of it,

"YOU'RE THE REASON FOR EVERYTHING! YOU TOOK AWAY THE ONE I LOVED SO I WILL DO THE SAME TO YOU!" Isla screamed as rage-filled tears streamed her eyes.

"ISLA THIS ISN'T YOU! GET BACK TO YOUR SENSES, I AM NOT ALLOWING YOU TO HURT ANYONE!"

Just as I had said that a strange golden light started pouring from my torn up palms, and the light surged right through her dagger and into her, her eyes lost the red, and returned to their original color again, everything around us went dark, and Isla too started disappearing, but I heard what she said right before she had completely disappeared, "Mez, is that really you?"

And so she too disappeared into the darkness, then I saw a window of light in her place, wait no, the window grew larger, soon my surroundings had changed and I was at a field of sunflowers. Where in the world was I? What was happening?
