There lies a pool. A pool to another world, a portal, if you want to call it so. Three disappeared there many years ago. And while they were gone, the world they lived in died off. Time passed and finally...one made it out.

~Rythian's POV~

I gasped as I felt the new cold air on my face as I passed through the portal. I looked around, everything looked dead. I frowned and slowly moved out of the Twilight Portal, putting my legs onto the old land. I looked around at my surroundings. Noticing nothing looked the same than when me and Zoey had gone through the portal all those years ago.

"What happened here.." I murmur to myself, walking further from the portal. I'm this world I no longer feel any magic. None. It's like this world has had to die. I feel a powerful wave of magic coming from the far east. It'll take me days to reach there. I sigh and turn my he'd toward the source.

"Its the only thing I got. For Zoey." I say softly walking in that direction.

"Nano! I'm home!! And I found this really-" I stop. Looking around. "Nano? You here!?" I call out. I started to freak out and used the teleporter to our room. "Nano?" I called out. Nothing. I teleported down to the science room. Looking around I only saw Barnabus. "Nano?" I caked out again. Nothing. Down to the magic room. Nothing.

"She must be in her little hut." I smile, walking out the secret doorway and out toward the hut. I saw her hunched over her crystal ball. She was shaking slightly. I frowned and walked over putting a hand on her shoulder.

"Nano? You okay?" I asked softly. "Ryth...Rythian." I froze. "W-What?" I asked. "Rythian....he's back. And he's coming."

" ....Fuck."
