The Past-3~

•Previously•

Now they knew that Lilac was someone very far away from being a criminal. She was their friend.

|•••|

Lilac and the group had planned on going into the forest for hunting one day. Lilac being a mermaid couldn't keep up with the speed of the pack. She decided to meet them in their den when they were done hunting-

Lilac was shifting through the dense green forest while she felt her vision glitch up and her body started burning up. Perhaps, It was her water withdrawal. Mermaids are meant to be in water; Though Lila had the advantage or perhaps a curse of growing legs on land she still had to go through a little thing known as 'Water withdrawals'. She has a risk of losing her life. She was never reckless about this matter; But maybe the joy of finally having friends blinded her...Her slender body hit the ground as the thorns underneath it pierced her skin.

A red-headed girl was cutting through the forest clearing the stems which fell in her way. She was leading a group of three people.

"Rachie, we've only got one thing left to cross off the checklist-" The tall boy said

"Lacewing Flies-" the other continued.

The girl kept quiet and kept a sharp eye out. They finally cut into a clearing- a little garden filled with vivid colors. Rachael brought out the good ol' net and trapped a few Lacewing Flies.

"Huh- these little buddies- we're all good to go back the lady and brew her a potion!" She slipped the insects into a glass bottle and started heading back.

From the corner of her eye she observed a bright green light through the dense forest. She has been to the forest almost all her life- Everybody knows, no light can cut through the broad leaves of this woods...

"Hey Ricky, Randy... Do you guys see that?"

"See what?" Ricky looked up from his book.

She pointed towards the source of light.

"Huhhhhhhh What is that!?" Randy looked at the light. It was really bright. It made the group really curious. Racheal started moving towards the light. They didn't let their guard down for a split second because, for all they knew it could have been a trap or anything-

As they kept walking through the light just got brighter and brighter, the reached the source of light which was a... girl?

They walked near the body which was laid on the bed of leaves and thorns. The light was emerging out of her skin- A tattoo kind- The Omega- "Ω" It was hard to see, piercing through the pupils of their eyes. They tried to move her hair aside to have a better look. "Ouch-" Racheal winced as her finger burnt. The girl on the ground was burning hot.

"Have any idea what this can be??? She is burning hot, almost as if she is melting" Racheal looked at Ricky, he shook his head and started looking through his book hoping to find anything.

"Rachie let's try and cool her body down until Ricky finds something" She nodded and they started to chant incantations opening their hands and trying to cool her down. They have only every used this spell in order to control the temperature of their cauldron while brewing a potion.

As the time passed their voices became louder and stronger. the temperature didn't go down it just started to fight back the spell. Just as they almost got it under control A muscular man dashed right through grabbing Racheal by her neck-
