Carry's sculpture sat on the nightstand while she did her homework. She laid on the bed with her tablet, completing the geometry assignment. Caitlin and Barry hid in Carry's closet, this is her conscious again.
"Hey Carry, want to play cards?" Nora stood in the doorway, shuffling a pack of playing cards.
"Sure," Carry said. She and Nora sat on the white carpet and began to play multiplication war. They would each lay out a card and the first one to guess the product of the two numbers won. The rounds went by fast, Carry won all except three. "I'll get it next time!"
"No you won't!" They both laughed while Nora shuffled the deck.
"I have an idea on how to get Carry back," Caitlin whispered. "Memories are constantly warped, changed by the brain to match the person's feelings about the memory, I think I know why this seems so perfect..."
"Because it's not real," Barry finished her thought. The laughter stopped when Caitlin opened the closet door. Nora disappeared from the room.
"I told you I didn't want to go." Carry stood up from the floor and sat on her bed.
"We aren't giving up on you Carry."
"Well you have to, because I'm not leaving!"
"Carry... this isn't real, not even this memory is real, your mind changed it." Ice burst through the door. "Flash!" Right on cue, Barry ran and began to fight Ice. He threw her and when she hit the ground the room dissipated, showing the real memory.
Nora sat on Carry's bed, the ice sculpture in her hands. Caitlin, Carry, and Barry stood off to the side as Carry walked in the room. They watched everything play out.
"Hey!" She noticed her prized possession was out of place. "Give it back!" Carry went up and tried to take it out of Nora's hands.

"I was just holding it!" Nora pulled back. They both attempted to get the fragile ice sculpture away from each other. With a snap it broke apart, knocking the girls off balance. Carry held the base of it and Nora a piece of the snowflake.
"No..." Carry's eyes started to water, "It's all your fault!" She screamed. Nora set the piece on Carry's nightstand and stood up.
"You're the one who tried to take it out of my hands!" Nora argued. Carry was beginning to lose control again, her eyes turned blue. Iris heard the commotion and rushed in.
"What is going on in here?" She asked. Iris calmed Carry down before things got out of hand.
"Sh-she broke it!" Carry picked up the pieces of her sculpture.
"I didn't break it! I came in here and Carry started freaking out," Nora lied.
"No!" Carry's brown eyes became blue, "You always lie!" Ice screamed, she struck Nora in the arm with an ice shard and Carry's hair turned blue. Ice completely took over. Nora cried out and held her frostbitten arm.
"Carry... you need to come back," Iris said. She slowly backed up, staying in between Nora and Ice. Ice didn't say anything, she ran to the only window above their bed and jumped out. Ice was going to help her mom. "Carry!" Iris shouted from the second story window. She ignored her and continued walking down the paved street.

Author's Comment: I was asked about reading my work on other sites. The answer is simple: Currently I am not active in any other networks than royalroadl.com. Only here, I correct mistakes and errors. If you read it anywhere else and have to pay for it, or have to deal with an annoying amount of advertisement, You Are Being Betrayed. You would do good if you make other people in that network aware of it. This is a free project of mine for the purpose of having fun. And if people try to make money with it you shouldn't bother visiting their website. The only one whom I actually allowed to have my work on his website is Armaell who invested the time to compile them into pdf.

8 108Res Publica: Republic Among Monarchs
Leonhard has always questioned the idea of rulership. In this world of endless war and strife, he often pondered the validation of Monarchy and Republic. For the past decade, he had invested his life into studying it. Still, as the son of Patrician Pabio Zieten, head of one of the most prominent houses in the Republic of Iodeal, he found himself obstructed by the duties he must perform. These duties range from venturing into the post-succession war island kingdom, dealing with rivaling houses and even leading troops into the field of battle. It would seem as if he would never get the time needed to discover the way of rulership. But perhaps being involved in such politics would enable him to discover something much more important than he had originally hoped...
