Alliance (1)

There was a flash of light that appeared in front of me before the scene changed.

When I came back to my senses, I found that I was standing on top of Joan again.

It didn't even seem like any time had passed with the way that she was just standing there. It was as if she hadn't noticed that my mind and soul had been completely pulled out of my body and into another realm.

But now that I was back, I could see that I was in the same room as before.

It didn't seem like there was anything that had changed during this time.

Feeling me finally move, Joan looked up at me as if she was curious about something.

I looked at her and asked, "Did nothing happen just now?"

Joan had a confused look on her face when she heard this as if she didn't understand why I was asking her this. After a moment of hesitation, she slowly shook her head to show that she didn't know what I was talking about.
