Luke opened his eyes and found himself in unfamiliar territory...well, unfamiliar with where he should be at least. The last thing he remembered was going to bed...and now he was in the middle of the manor. Had he gone home...?

No, that couldn't be. Luke turned to the middle of the courtyard and saw that he and Master Van were sparring. Was this a dream? He never remembered training with Master Van like this...unless...

Unless the boy was Asch. Had their minds connected somehow? The last time their minds had done this was when Luke was dragged along in Asch's mind after the fall of Akzeriuth, and that was Asch's doing. He had no control over their connection, or so he thought at least. Maybe he had opened something up accidentally?

"I guess it doesn't really matter now that I'm stuck in here..." Luke muttered to himself as he watched the two figures continue their spar, curious as to the workings of Asch's mind.

Asch was charging right at his teacher with everything he's got...which wasn't much against a full grown man. After falling on his bottom for the fifth time, Van thought that they had trained enough

Luke simply stood there in silence, watching the two finish up their spar. It was just like when he was a kid...or even a few months ago when he was training with Master Van. Minus the "Chosen One" stuff...he could have sworn this was a training session that he had experienced himself.

So he was viewing Asch's memories then? This was just like that one event that had happen a few weeks ago but...different. Luke doubted that the Animus had a hand in this.

The scene changed and Luke watched as Asch and Natalia spoke with each other.

"So this is what Natalia always was talking about."

It made more sense...now that he had actually seen the scene where Asch and Natalia promised that they would marry each other and create a better place.

Natalia finishes the her flower crown, raising it up to Asch. "Let's make this country better, together!"
Asch looks to the crown made of flowers and smiles as he holds Natalia's hands.
"Let's change it so no one has to be poor and war never happens." He kneels down as Natalia places the crown of flowers on his head.
"Let's work together to change our country, for the rest of our lives. Together." And with that, Natalia raises her pinky, a pinky swear. When Asch sees this, he only frowns and holds her hand instead. Natalia looked confused at that but thought nothing of it. Luke was with her, and they vow to be King and Queen on day.

The scene fades again, as voices echo through the darkness. Disembodied voices of panic flooded the darkness and somewhere within the chaos, a woman's could be heard, calling out for her son.

"Luke!? Luke! Where are you? LUKE!?"
"Mama! No! You can't take me! I belong here!"The new scene appears in the darkness. The lighting wasn't any better and it felt...cold and damp. Luke would find himself inside
