TW// Trauma, PTSD

Sei is in his lab, looking at his left hand. He get’s flashbacks of his mother and father – the last time he saw them. His mom was tightly holding his left wrist. They were running.

SEI: Mom what’s happening?

MOM: Shhhh be quite. They must not find you.

They're running through a big house. She opens a big trunk.

SEI: B-but mom-

She puts Sei into the trunk, still holding him tightly.

MOM: Sei honey, you need to be quite.

Sei started crying.

SEI: M-mom I’m scared.

She starts wiping away his tears.

MOM: Shhhh it’ll be okay. Stay here and be quiet.

SEI: What about dad?

MOM: He’ll be okay. We’ll be okay.

They hear footsteps outside the room.

MOM: Sei I love you.

She kisses him and closes the trunk. Sei is looking through a hole. As mom was trying to get out of the room 3 hooded people in black, block the way. Their eyes were blue, almost white.

ONE OF THEM: You need to come with us.

Mom starts fighting them. Her fighting skills are impressive, but she’s outnumbered. One of them knocks her out. They take her and leave the room. Sei is shaking and crying in the trunk.

It skips back to Sei.

SEI: This was the last time I saw them... And it was the last time someone held me by my left wrist.

PERL: I’m sorry sir?

SEI: Oh... n-nothing. I was just talking to myself... Perl?

PERL: Yes sir?

SEI: We need to figure out a way for that portal to work.

Akane was walking outside. She has flasback talking to Sei.

SEI: So I’ve been thinking of that day when you started glowing and heat was coming out of your body. Is it normal for you?

AKANE: No I don’t know why that happened and I don’t know if any of my people poses powers like that. When I was young I feel into a lake. The Lake of Elixir.

End of flashback.

AKANE: The Lake of Elixir...

She has flashbacks of her falling in the lake and then nothing happens.

AKANE: I don’t remember what happened after I have fallen.

She takes the bottle of Elixir out of her pocket and looks at it.

AKANE: Is my glowing eyes really connected with that?

She puts it back and walks on.

Back on Vulmone it shows a landscape with a mountains. It was full of little lakes and waterfalls, but there was one big lake on the top of the mountain – The Lake of Elixir. Near it stands a temple. A woman is sitting by the lake. In the reflection of a lake she's looking at Akane on Ceanus. Her hand goes through the water so that the reflection disappears. She smiles.

WOMAN: The truth are just words, but they hurt more than bullets.
