Images flickered through Asha's mind, one after another, some staying longer than others. Like a series of dreams, dreams of a life being lived, a happy life. She grew older, her mom and her dad and her brother were her rock and safe place. Learning magic, becoming a teenager, some of the dreams felt more like reality. Of course, it was Asha's mind so there were also plenty of dreams of unicorns and princesses. Then there were times she remembered, the images of her tiny frail body being wracked with seizures as the veil being torn down had adverse effects, she was dying, even at three and a half years old she understood that. She remembered her parents talking, something about a way to save her, but then there was nothing but dreams.
The last image that came to her mind was her father holding hands with her mother, both smiling down on her, the sun was warm on her face and she was safe. It was like walking into a fog, she slowly became aware of being in a bed, in a room. Slowly became aware that she was somewhere else, her body felt different, it ached like she'd been hit with a ton of bricks, but also frail like she hadn't been using her muscles in awhile. The more she became aware, the more panic set in, where was she, what was going on, where were her parents, where was daddy.

Dad, DAD, where are you?! DAAAAD!!!!!She yelled out, hoping someone would hear her, hoping her dad would come and tell her everything was going to be OK.
