Chapter 64: The Truth of Lisanna's Death (2)
~Silva POV~
After avoiding the original Strauss family members Mira picked out for me a new look to disguise ourselves with a shaky grin on her face, "There… with these on no one will be able to notice or remember us. We don't need a time paradox happening…"
She says that but her whole body shakes like a leaf.
She's taking some deep breaths as I agreed with Mira the possibility of time paradoxes of what not to do exactly in this scenario, "Yeah the last thing we need is a time paradox to occur here. The past and future come together at the same time messing with something in the past could have serious repercussions in the future. A butterfly effect."
She nods sadly understanding agreeing with my words of reasoning here replying in a sad tone, "Right… if we do something to alter this world, there's a possibility that we'd changed history. Did you find out about anything in the book? A way to return back?"
I nodded explaining the situation to Mirajane as the sun started to set I began to explain the functions of the Memory's Day book, "Yeah… with the rush of us being stuck here and peer pressure I managed to summarize what it does. The book causes a person to go back to a time that they cannot want to remember. However, if someone else touches that person, they will also be transported to the past. The book's effect lasts for six hours, and after the six hours pass, the person will be transported back to the present. If the people who touched the original transportee aren't touching them just before the return trip to the present, they will be forced to stay in the past."
Her eyes flickered surprised but also sighed in relief looking in the direction away from the town where in as I couldn't help but ask the obvious, "So… that was Lisanna I met huh? And a younger version of yourself along with Elfman. You were certainly… bold wearing such gothic clothing."
She merely laughed lightly as I got to see what she looked like as a teen acting a bit embarrassed, "Yeah… I was in the phase of being rebellious and such. If only I listened to Master at the time though then…"
She got silent after that.
Really hurts to see a girl frown wanting to do something but also can't cause it without suffering the consequences for doing so.
But she needs to learn the truth sooner or later as I blurted out the obvious in a soft tone, "You want to save Lisanna don't you…"
She flinched at that, but the nod followed after what she wanted to do as I leaned back on the idea.
If we somehow succeed, then that makes a change to the timeline but if we don't then everything remains the same.
However, I know nothing will change when we get involved because I know how things will end.
Sighing out my breath I replied to Mirajane catching her by surprise on how to save her, "Sigh… alright I'll bite how exactly are you going to save your little sister."
She seems taken aback by my agreeance asking cautiously about me changing the past to save her sister, "I didn't expect that… are you positive though?"
I merely grinned at her responding the obvious in a kind tone to her holding her hand, "Of course. Besides, without your Magic you'll need me to help her might as well just agree. After all, the best way to help a lady in need is to provide support for what they can do."
She just laughed at me lightly thanking me for agreeing to help her out with tears lightly coming out from her eyes, "Thank you… I don't think I would've had the strength to go through with it… I don't know what I'd do if I had to witness it again…"
Yeah…
You will kill me.
Not likely maybe but very highly probable that it will occur if I fail.

*Fwp*
Flapping my wings using Mastema and having Mirajane piggyback on me since the time limit was nearly over as she directed me, "Let's see… if I remember correctly Lisanna should've been sent flying in this direction but I was too shocked and the same with Elfman in his Beast Takeover to rush in at the time."
Agreeing with her we managed to avoid the town early as it was set ablaze when the Beast came around it was best, we saved ourselves according to Mira's words since I was outclassed to deal with anything about it.
And as much as I hated the fact, that we had to leave the town to itself it was something that occurred originally and we both knew we couldn't change too much as we had to let things happen except change for one thing.
It sickens me to do so but the level gap with the Beast that Elfman controls says otherwise and I do value my life. Plus I can't exactly leave Mirajane alone unless I want to be stuck in the past…
So yeah my options were limited this time around.
At least I tell myself that…
*Fwp*
Merely nodded my head going towards the direction Mira wanted correcting the way to land ahead as my eyes noticed something circulating in the clouds pointing at it, "Uh… Mirajane did you perhaps remember something like that when the both of you were too much in shock right?"
Looking at it directly Mirajane looked at what I meant by the circulating atmosphere occurring around as her eyes widened slightly at it, "No… I don't think I recall something like that happening…"
*WOOSH*
Before we could question anymore a loud sound of wind boomed over us along with an ear-piercing scream could be heard, "LISANNAAAA!!!!!"
Mira was also in shock probably because of the trauma happening as I rushed ahead getting her attention in a serious tone, "Hey Mira! MIRA!! Closing in on Lisanna be prepared to catch her now!!!"
Her eyes regained her composure as I flew faster getting her attention Mira managed to grab Lisanna unconscious with tears streaming down her face, "There, there… your big sis is here… she's here for you…"
Holding her tightly I began to find the place to land to place her near the tree and went into hiding nearby away from the younger version of Mirajane checking Lisanna.
We were away as I used <Magic Sense> to check Mirajane's emotions mix but the prime majority was happiness since she checked her sister wasn't injured or killed in the attack Elfman did to her.
The next part though is what shocked her next…
With the younger Mirajane and Elfman seeing Lisanna unconscious and not responding to their cries she suddenly glowed causing Mira to look surprised and worried about what was going on, "Wait… I don't remember this occurring! We saved Lisanna I checked she wouldn't die but –"
Before she could finish the light took Lisanna almost instantly but it was enough for Mirajane to notice the one we saved was sent up into the sky and the one on the ground was the Edolas version of Lisanna with disbelief filled her eyes.
She gestured to the sky returning to normal as the small Anima that was occurring around Earthland at the time as Mirajane was about to rush in –
*Shiii*
/////
*Shiii*
She glowed and – god damn it we returned.
Gazing my eyes at Mirajane she looked shocked as she gestured to me if she wasn't seeing things in a desperate tone, "Silva… please tell me you saw what I saw did you?"
Responding to Mirajane I decided to give some key terms for her to grasp with my meta knowledge using my Eye Magic cover informing her, "Yeah… I saw what happened. Even used my Eye Magic to find out something but all I got were some weird key terms. Anima, transferred, Edolas, and parallel Lisanna looking at the one you know."
Motioning my hand to the switch places she sighed in relief as one of the Guild members Macao came with a grin, "Hey Silva! Heard you recovered and came by to check. Are you two talking about something?"
Before Mira could respond I beat her to the punch talking to Macao in a happy tone, "Sup! Macao quick question how long have we been talking?"
He looked confused before answering surprising Mira with how long it took for them, "What? What kind of dumb question is that? Didn't you two just talk for a few seconds even though you didn't finish your drink?"
It was then for us it took 6 hours but to them, it was merely a few seconds when we returned depending on the ice of my water made sure of it as I dismissed to which he shrugged.
Mira then looks down with new information coming to light as she questions me about the other Lisanna in a serious tone, "Parallel Lisanna? Do you mean to say the Lisanna that Elfman and I found was a different one that was transferred by this Anima or Edolas?"
Shrugging my shoulders I replied to Mirajane the best place to look after her clues of the death behind Lisanna's death in a neutral tone, "Possibly? Actually, this the second no third time I heard of those terms."
Her eyes widened as I explained further getting her attention immediately replying in a calm tone, "The Lisanna in the past, Mystogian, and Porlyusica is when I saw those connected with the term Edolas. Maybe try asking those two given the chance."
She paused at me before finally smiling thanking me for helping her discover the death behind Lisanna wiping the tears from her eyes, "Sniff… thanks Silva. You helped me a lot more than I would have expected… I'll go over to Porlyusica about Edolas. And ask the Master about Mystogian about this."
I merely nodded as she thanked me and we went on our way as she went back to her happy persona taking the Memory's Day book away.

Putting them away for now I have better things to do…
I need to find a place to live since Natsu destroyed my apartment building…
I wonder if Lucy's building close to the shopping district in Magnolia Town has a spare room for me to keep.
70,000J sounds about much but I need the room.
Actually…
Didn't Porylusica live outside of Magnolia Town living in hollow trees I could use the space plus with Shambhala I could fast travel back and forth.
Hmm…
On second thought being near the shopping district is quick and easy so checking out for any vacant rooms in Lucy's area it is then!
