Maze of Dreams: A Fighting Chance (Part 4)

Back from the cold forest, Winoa is seen waking up leaning by the corner of a tree. She hits her head back as cherry blossoms from above plop on her.

"Ow! That was one of the strangest dreams. Was I really kissing Sarah? Oh well…Urgh…why can't I remember what else happened?"

The scene transitions back to Sarah and Auroa as the illusion dissipates. Then, finally, they are back where they started, not far from Winoa's spot.

"Here, I have something for you. Take it!"

He reaches out, placing it in her hands, the other half of her charm.

"What!? I thought you threw this away."

"I did toss it off that bridge," Auroa admits. "But I found the time to reclaim it. So let this fulfill our end of the bargain. As thanks for freeing me that very day."

She placed the charm back in one piece. It immediately begins glowing for a brief second. The energy inside her was instantly replenished.

"Now the playing field is evenly set."
