Chapter 0438

Nina

When we came out on the other side of the portal, we found ourselves standing in the middle of the athletic field where we had last gone through. The campus was alive with activity, and I could see students rushing around as they packed up their vehicles to go home for winter break.

The war was mostly over, after all. The Crescents had retreated to the place where they had set up their headquarters, and as Enzo and I walked back to campus with my father's guards at our heels, I quickly began to realize that it was safe enough outside of Mountainview for people to go home.

at Enzo then, who looked utterly dumbfounded. Neither of us had heard a single peep about anything that involved people's memories. I felt initially worried that the Crescents had done something bad, but none of my friends seemed concerned about it. Both of us shook our heads, and Jessica laughed. "I guess the news didn't make it to you somehow," she said. "I'm assuming that
