Nathan was so young, so vibrant-how could he just give up his life so easily?
A promise?
What promise?
Something clicked in Nathalie's mind. She rushed to the floor-to-ceiling window and peered down. Nathan stood

forming a shimmering mirror. Nathalie stared as the mirror showed a little boy curled up in a cluttered storage

Nathalie's eyes went wide. Her whole body shook in horror. "No..." she whimpered, her voice breaking apart.
"Please, don't!"
It was like someone had ripped open her mind, sweeping away all the dust and cobwebs-suddenly,
memories rushed in from net
direction. Nathalie dropped to knees, clutching her head as pain shot through her.
She remembered.
Her connection with Nathan was like rain soaking straight into her bones- impossible to shake off, impossible to
forget.
She remembered carrying that
unconscious little boy hon her back. She was barely more than a child herself, just trying to save someone
from the darkness. She had no idea how to take care of him.

A tiny hand tugged at her sleeve. "Please don't leave me," he said, his voice trembling.
He was so small, so painfully thin. But his eyes-black and bright as polished stone-were filled with pure trust,
shining brighter than any star.

So, she made a promise. "Don't worry, little brother. | won't leave you behind. Until your family finds you, I'll
