The room was quiet, the bed was soft and comfortable, and she was about to go to sleep again, but she opened her eyes abruptly and sat up from the bed. Star Swirl suddenly came to her senses, and she didn't feel sleepy.

"Mr. X, ...... X" shouted a few times in a row, but she didn't hear a response, she looked around the strange room uneasily, lifted the quilt, moved her legs off the bed, and stepped on her shoes anxiously.

As soon as Star Swirl stood up, she snorted and fell to the ground, not only did her ankle sprain heal, but both of her legs became limp. She tried several more times, but never got up from the ground.

The mood became more and more irritable, she couldn't help but clench her fists and hang to the ground, knocking a few times, and the corners of her eyes became inexplicably sour.

The door was opened with a "squeak", and as soon as she looked up, she was hugged into her arms.

After a few breath-long pauses, someone picked her up from the ground and gently put her back on the bed, only to look up to see Star Swirl's eyes red like a bunny.

“X……”

Her voice was hoarse, and when she met the pair of deep eyes like a pool of water in front of her, all the suppressed weakness and fear these days burst out in an instant.

Mr. X watched her tears fall from the broken thread, and his face that had always remained unchanged showed a loss, he wiped the corners of her eyes in a panic, sighed, and reached out to touch her soft bun. Listening to her cries, her cold heart hurt a little.

"Why are you crying, aren't I fine?"

"Woo-woo," Star Swirl reached out to take his hand, pressed her face against the back of his, and sobbed under her breath, "You know, he made me forget about you, what if...... If I never remember you, I'll never see you again, won't I......"

"Don't cry," Mr. X said as he looked into her moist eyes, his voice was gentle, "didn't I come to you in your dreams?" ”

"I'm still dreaming?" Star Swirl's eyes were filled with horror for a moment, and she grabbed his hand tightly and asked, "So, when I wake up, won't you be there?" ”

"Star Swirl, answer me a question first," he whispered.

"What...... Issue? Her head rubbed against his sleeve.

He replied slowly, "Now there are two doors in front of you, one of which leads to your original time and space, and you can return to your original life when you step in; Behind the other door is a door to an unknown time and space......"

"What about you, where are you going?" Star Swirl asks what matters most about her at the moment.

Mr. X's eyes grew blue, "You want to stay with me all the time?" ”

Star Swirl looked up, the sun shining on his handsome face and dark blue shirt, and she nodded solemnly, "I want to stay with you." ”

"If you are good enough to withstand all the pressures and waves that you will face next, I promise to keep you by my side forever." His deep voice echoed in his ears, implying that Star Swirl had chosen the second door.

Seeing that she lowered her head and didn't move, X leaned down and pinched her smooth jaw with one hand, forcing her to raise her head so that he could see her expression clearly at the moment: "So, your choice?" ”

A pair of watery eyes were reflected in his eyes, black and white colors were mixed, and the thin water vapor was pervasive, and it was difficult to distinguish between joy and sorrow.

"Sister...... How is she? She asked in a low voice.

"The clone was destroyed by Pan, causing the mother's organs to fail rapidly, and she ...... It's gone. ”

As the words fell, Star Swirl's eyes were gone, and tears rolled down his sleeves, and his trembling hands hung limply, choking out of his throat and not crying for a long time.

He knew what Angela meant to Star Swirl.

"My sister is dead......" X heard her voice, his heart thorned slightly, he stretched out his hands to take her into his arms, and wanted to say something but heard a cry almost screaming from his chest: "Why is it dead!" I just found her! It's all my fault! I didn't notice how many times my sister gave me hints! In the end, it was to save me......"

Family affection is a kind of affection that is too far away for X, maybe he once had, maybe he didn't have it, but at this time, he felt sorry for her grief, and there was an inexplicable tremor in his heart.

After a moment of hysteria, Star Swirl suddenly lowered her tone and muttered, "You know, they've been comparing us sisters to each other for so long, and I know I'll never be better than her......"

"But when she disappeared, I suddenly felt that the most important part of my life had been cut off. It turned out that in addition to jealousy and envy for her, I was more entangled. Until、Until I met her here, I thought that everything could be done all over again, so that I could get to know her well and cherish her......"

Her choked voice could not continue, and her slender body trembled silently.

"What should I do?" Star Swirl stopped crying and slowly tilted her head, looking at him helplessly, with only cowardice and sadness in her eyes.

"Stay by my side, if you have hatred in your heart, I will help you."

"Help me...... To deal with Hermes? There was a fierce look in her eyes.

"So your choice?"

Star Swirl was brought back to her senses by his suggestion, her moist eyes blinking, and when she heard this "temptation" offer, she suddenly realized that all the decisions she had made before were shaken at this time.

Star Swirl gripped his hand behind his back tightly, and she bit her lip and closed her eyes, trying to calm herself. However, as soon as he closed his eyes, it was Li Leqi's figure lying in a pool of blood.

In order to avenge my sister, in order to stay by X's side, I will not go back and say goodbye to the past completely.

Perhaps the moment she stepped into this space, she was destined to not be able to go back to her previous life.

She shook her head bitterly and said, "I choose, the second door." ”

Even she didn't expect that when she said this, she didn't have the slightest reluctance. Even more bizarrely, the moment he heard her answer, he pressed her head back to his chest.

This embrace seemed to be warmer than just now, and even the blow brought to her by her sister's death was diluted.

Out of sight, his eyes moved, "Star Swirl, when you wake up from this dream, you'll be on a third alternate plane." Everything there is new to you, remember to be careful. ”

"And you, you'll be over there, right?" Reassuringly, she checked with him again.

He nodded slightly: "Remember the promise I gave you, it won't change." ”

Her gaze finely adjusted to look at his face, and she saw a slight arc at the corners of half of her pale golden lips, and a chuckle overflowed. Bang, bang, bang, a clearly audible heartbeat.

This kind of conditional commitment may not be a romantic vow at all, but it is real and powerful.
