Ah Chun: Ascending The Heavens 308 Ancient City Part Two

"No. all these things are new to me. These strange metal houses are very different from what I know of." Mei Yan answered.

Ah Chun looked at these buildings in front of her, she kept having a strange feeling that she had seen these buildings before. She did not know why she felt this way but it was like she had a strong connection to them. This feeling did not stem from her time in the crystal palace realm either. It was as if she was missing something... After racking her brain for a little while Ah Chun shook her head trying to clear it of her complicated thoughts then continued to look around.

They went from building to building not finding anything of interest. These buildings seemed to be completely empty. Even though they had yet to find anything, the city was quite large so Ah Chun was not going to give up that easily. Along with the feeling she was having she wanted to search everything just in case. 

Hours passed and many buildings were searched. Nothing was found in any of them except the flora and fauna that took up home within the deserted buildings. They had searched half the city and were now standing in the tallest building in the center of the city. Ah Chun and Mei Yan walked up a long set of stairs making sure to search each floor. The building was tall and had around eighty floors. After climbing and searching all the way to the top half a day had already passed. 

"This is the last floor. Hopefully, something is here." Ah Chun said as she stood in front of a large metal door.

"I do find it strange that nothing is here. You did have to break the array to get in so no one must have come here before us." Mei yan said. Since being with Ah Chun and searching the city with her, Mei Yan had gained a little bit more courage. Not much but enough to not be as scared as she was when she had first entered.

"Mmmm… The array is still intact. I only touched it and a door appeared." Ah Chun said as she pushed the large metal door open.

When the door opened a large room came into view. In the middle of that room was a pedestal that had a round orb on top of it that faintly glowed. Ah Chun's eyes lit up. She had no idea what this orb was but it must be something good if it was in such an ancient city. 

She quickly walked over to it and closely examined it. She wanted to make sure no traps or anything would spring if she touched it. Once she was sure nothing bad would happen she reached out and touched the orb. But to her surprise, the orb was attached to the pedestal and she was not able to move it or pull her hand away from it!

Thin streams of light flew up into the air swirling around and collected at a certain point in front of Ah Chun. They slowly spread out into a rectangular shape before moving pictures started to show within the light.

"Chun'er, don't run or you will fall!"

"No, I won't! Ahh!" 

"See Chun'er, I told you, you would fall if you run like that. It's slippery out!" 

The moving pictures began to change from over and over showing different scenes of the same little girl. 

"Chun'er do you know what day it is!?" 

"Today is my birthday!" 

"That's right! What do you want for your birthday?" 

"I… I want to get better so I can go out and play again..." 

"Chun'er..."

Ah Chun who was watching these scenes were confused. The little girl was the spitting image of herself. But she had never been to the places in the images and nor did they look familiar to her. The only thing she could think of was that the orb was messing with her mind! 

"Junior Sister! Isn't that you!?" Mei Yan yelled out after watching the moving pictures.

"It seems so… But at the same time, it is not me. It just looks like me." Ah Chun said as she struggled to remove her hand. Only after some great effort was she able to free her hand. Butg as soon as her hand was removed the moving pictures also dispread. "Senior Sister Yan try touching the orb...." 

Ah Chun had a weird feeling well up inside her. So she could only test this out by having Mei Yan touch the orb as well. Mei Yan bit her lip and slowly reached her hand out. But when she touched the orb, not a single thing happened. "It's not working, is it broke?"

 Ah Chun's face showed a complicated look as she once again reached out to touch the orb after Mei Yan backed away. Once again it glowed brightly and formed the moving pictures again. Seeing it activate again caused Ah Chun's face to sink. She had a feeling this thing was connected to her in some way. But she did not understand how or why. 

This time Ah Chun did not pull her hand away. She kept it on the Orb and watched each scene play out in front of her. The same little girl that resembled Ah Chun was in each scene. And each time it was either the little girl playing or her laying in a bed with weird things hooked up to her. This continued on and on until everything went black.

"WAKE UP!"
