Aveline felt herself drifting as if she were floating weightlessly in midair. Her body seemed impossibly light, and she was filled with a sense of confusion. What was happening to her?

"Aveline? Aveline?"

A distant voice called out, familiar but too far away for her to recognize.

"Aveline, wake up!"

The voice came again, closer this time.

The confusion on Aveline's face slowly faded as she began to recognize the voice-it was Lucas!

Aveline clutched her head tightly, rejecting his approach, refusing to hear his voice. Memories flooded her mind in a chaotic rush, overwhelming her until she burst into tears.

"Ave, you're finally awake! You scared me to death!" Selena sobbed, tears streaming down her face as she saw Aveline regain consciousness.
