Hours passed as the two sat in their cell and chatted about their adventures, with the several guards that changed shifts staring at them in amazement. They heard about Crystaall's adventures, her feats of glory. But they never spoke it to their fellows, for almost anyone in the 'dungeon' could hear their voices. It took her hours to find the courage to tell Kast about the execution. He nearly threatened to kill the girl, but he soon realized what this meant for Crystaall. She was to face death for crimes she never wanted to commit and the violation of a ridiculous rule. The rodian hoped something would stop this from happening, but it was a slim chance. He patted Crystaall on the shoulder and smiled at her.
"Hey, we'll be fine. Don't you worry about a thing."
"Why do I have the feeling I should be telling you that?"
"Because you're far more wiser than you look."
"Thanks Kast."
More hours passed and night soon fell. They fell asleep rather quickly and Crystaall felt a dream coming. A dream that intended to show her the future. A future she wished she would she see, and a wish that would ultimately be granted. But with the hollow walls and many empty cells around her, darkness was a heartbeat away from corrupting her mind. And the A.I that was placed inside her smiled delightly. This was a chance to manipulate the child she was attached to. But with all this happening, and night failing to provide a moon, the dungeon became black like the voids of space.
She couldn't move, and all she could do was stare and watch. Events of her past and future passed her by for a single glimpse, and all she could do was stare at them in confusement. There was a burning building, there was Vex finding her and then there were also her older self serving with a militia, a lightsaber in her hand and the same man who attacked her, now fought her fairly, and then she stood in front of a large temple crafted on a planet with so much darkness. She could feel the hatred and anger that radiated off the building. This was the only glimpse that had left her with any effect. But these small glimpse were only the hours counting down the hours to the light of day. She would soon wake, and as the dream dissipated, she soon realized that if this was to be her future.... how would she survive this?
