Full Dive: Eternal Phantasy

Ning Shen entered Ah Chun's mind and floated in the dark space. He looked around to see if he could find the seal that was blocking Ah Chun from remembering things. As he traveled around deeper into her mind, he could see all the past events she had gone through. The fun times and even the sad times. Everything she remembered as an event in her life that mattered she retained. He knew the things he was looking for would be at the deepest recesses of her mind. 

After traveling for almost two hours inside her mind, Ning Shen finally came upon a glowing ball that had chains wrapped around it, sealing it in place, not allowing them to flow out with the rest of her memories. "This must be it… But this is..." Ning Shen had no idea what he was looking at.  He could see the memories that were locked away inside the glowing ball. They showed a world unfamiliar to him. It almost resembled some of the worlds Alicia had inside her space, but this world did not seem very advanced at all. 

Shaking his head, Ning Shen got ready to break the seal. "First, let's try to cut the chains." 

Drawing his sword, he readied himself. He lifted his sword and slashed down with everything he had…contemporary romance

In another area, Alicia was watching the images in her mind in confusion. The machine Tereax made was one that allowed someone to unlock the memories deep inside their minds, but Alicia had never expected to see any of this…

"Big sister, no fair! Why do you always pamper Chun'er over me!?" The little girl cried out as she watched her big sister hand her little sister the strawberry ice cream.

"Ai, did you want strawberry?" The young girl asked as she looked at her younger sister.

"Mm… I want strawberry too. I don't like vanilla anymore." Ai replied as she pouted her lower lip.

"Alright, hold on, I will get you a strawberry instead. " The young girl smiled and turned around to talk to the man standing behind in the service window of the ice cream truck. "Can I get another strawberry, please?"

"Sure thing." The man replied before scooping up some ice cream and putting it on a cone.

The young girl took the ice cream from the man, paid for it, and then handed it to Ai. "Here you go. See, your big sister never plays favorites. I love the both of you very much."

"Mmm!" Ai smiled brightly.

The scenes changed, and with it, Alicia saw the same young girl lying in a bed with her eyes closed. "Ai, what happened to big sister!? Where is mama!? Why did mama leave us here!?"

"Chun'er, I don't know. But we have to be strong for big sister just like she has for us." Ai replied. 

Alicia continued to watch the scenes as they continued to change from one memory to the next. Tears began to roll down her cheeks. "So this entire time Mitsu and Chun'er were…. Big Sister… You knew, didn't you? This entire time we are..."

Alicia opened her eyes, and the capsule opened. She had spent almost five hours inside. Blake saw tears rolling down her cheeks and quickly embraced her. "Did you see what you wanted to see?"

"Mmm… Blake… I..." Alicia paused. She understood everything now. Everything that had been hidden from her she knew now. But she was still unsure if everything was as she thought it was. "I… I am Big Sister's… Umm, Misaki Mitsu's and Chun'er's sister. Like a real sister. It's hard to explain. You can watch what is on here. It may help you understand." 

Alicia hit the side panel, opening it up to reveal a data cube. She then handed it to Blake for him to watch. Blake looked at Alicia, hesitated a second before taking it from her.

Back on Ah Chun's side, a blood curdling scream was heard as Ah Chun screamed out in pain. As soon as Ning Shen's sword sliced through the first chain, pain surged throughout Ah Chun's body. It was so painful she could not keep herself from screaming. Although Ning Shen heard her scream, he gritted his teeth and struck out at the next one, which resulted in a second scream escaping Ah Chun's lips. 

Ning Shen looked at the few remaining chains and decided to do it all in one go. "Chun'er hold on…." Taking a deep breath Ning Shen gritted his teeth and slashed out and, in one fell swoop, cut the remaining chains at once.

"AHHHHHHH!!!!!!" Ah Chun screamed before passing out. Ning Shen was kicked out of Ah Chun's mind after a flash of memories exploded out. Ning Shen opened his eyes and looked at the sweat drenched Ah Chun and frowned. He reached down and caressed her face before getting up to get her a chance of clothes and a bucket of hot water to wipe her down with. 

Inside her mind, Ah Chun was staring at the scenes in front of her, unsure of what was going on. She was no stranger to the surroundings she was seeing, but she also saw two people. Although their hair color was different, their faces had not changed besides looking younger. She knew them well. "Alicia? Big sister...?"

"What are you girls doing? Come on!" A woman yelled as she turned to see the three kids just standing there.

"Mom, I think Chun'er is sick, maybe we should not do this today." The girl who looked like Misaki suggested.

"No! You will do this and your sister is not sick. She is just dumb. Now hurry up! I do not have all day." The woman yelled as she walked forward and grabbed Chun'er's hand forcefully pulling her forward.

"Mom! You're hurting her." The other girl yelled out as she grabbed the woman's hand and pulled Chun'er free. 

"Ai, you dare disobey!?" The woman raised her hand and was about to hit Ai, the girl who pulled Chun'er away when the other girl ran over to stop her.

"Mom, we are in public! Do you want to lose face with how you act at home!?"
