49 End and beginning, beginning and End

The night is hot, I'm kneeling next to Tara as she's bleeding out. HEAL! HEAL! HEAL! HEAL! HEAL! HEAL! I don't have enough magic, I used it all, she won't make it

"COME ON TARA! YOU CAN'T DIE HERE!" I feel myself tearing up."Weren't you gonna help me with my elements' strengthening! Weren't you gonna help me find out the truth about my power," I started crying.

Tara starts moving her lips trying to say something, it's faint but I can hear it.

"I'm sorry...I'm sorry...I'm sorry..."

With those words, Tara died in front of me.

______________________________________________________________________________

I wake up with tears in my eyes. Why were you apologizing? I never understood that. I look around and find myself in a room I don't recognize. It's about 10 meters in length and width and 15 meters high. I'm laying down on a bed and the only other thing in this place is a toilet and sink with some soap.

I look around, there's a single door in this place. I look at my own clothes, some blue jeans a and shirt I wasn't wearing before. I look at my wrists, I panic cause I only see my black bracelet and the white one is nowhere to be seen. I raise my body...

I remember what happened before I fell unconscious, actually, how long have I been unconscious for? I lay down again, right, so then, they took me to this place and they brainwashed me and I don't know or I have to be awake for it and they are about to.

I get up again, I feel hungry. I walk towards the door, there's no handle? I try pushing it. As soon as I did I felt something draining my magic but still pushed through it. Locked huh, well I can't say I didn't see it coming. Though that magic draining? What exactly was that... now that I feel it, my magic is slowly being drained from me. Too slowly actually, I can recover it way faster than it's being drained. I also can't sense anything outside of this room, something must be wrong with my body.

Actually talking about my body. I check it all over with my eyes and healing magic, there aren't any wounds on me, but I feel a slight difference in my back. I can't really see without any mirrors here. I sigh.

For now, I'll just wait for the next person to open this door and then kill them in order to escape. I walk back to the bad and lay back down. They probably won't kill me as of yet since in all due likelihood I'm useful to them. I'll escape if I don't see anybody anytime soon though. So I'm sure that any escape attempt I may have won't have many repercussions.

Even if something were to happen to me, it'd be worth it if I can get a little back at Argus. I sigh, I close my eyes again and decided to go to sleep.
