A...princess? Arisu thought, surprised after hearing what Meru said. I'm...a princess? Her eyes shifted to Jeremy. Was he...lying to me? She had recognized Meru when she hadn't recognized Jeremy, but was her little memory reliable? Did she really know this stranger, or was it some mistake?
After Jeremy spoke, she closed her eyes and turned away. "Jeremy...I want the truth. Am I really who you say I am, or am I someone else entirely?" she asked.

"Love... Why would I lie to you? I'm so sorry that you're this confused to think that I'm lying. I love you Arisu."
Jeremy reached out to hold both of the girl's hands and look into her eyes, his were tearing up slightly and his bottom lip quivered as if he were about to cry. He needed her to belive him, if not she would die. This beautiful, young woman would die a horrible death, he had to save her from that.

Arisu was about to answer before sudden visions came to her. Arisu clutched her head as she saw them, surprised and scared.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Arisu saw herself on a ship. But not just any ship. A ship full of soldiers. Next to that ship, there was another. It, too, was full of soldiers, but with a different insignia on their uniforms. There were planks between the two ships and the soldiers on Arisu's ship was being overwhelmed by the other soldiers. Arisu herself was standing with her back to a rail of the ship, being attacked by three soldiers. One took a horizontal swing at her, but she leaned back to avoid it. However, the wood rail wasn't as sturdy as she thought it was and broke under her weight. She fell headfirst into the rolling waters below.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
The visions faded, but still Arisu held her head, trying to make sense of what she just saw.
((She'll occasionally see visions like these. It will be her memory returning, in this case the battle right before she disappeared. Obviously, they're all in her head, so you all can't see them.))

"Arisu?"
Jeremy put his arms around the girl hugging her softly. He petted her hair and shushed her gently. She was having some kind of episode, this was worrisome. The man kissed the top of her head and patted her back. Maybe if he was kind and sweet she would see it his way. He had no ill intentions for her at all.
"It's okay Arisu, I'm here."

 Rose shook her head. "Great way to ignore me..." She was about to suggest they go inside again when Arisu seemed to have a spazm of some sort. "Ok! Enough all ready all. We can talk inside. Now lets go!" She said with an elevated voice. She moved to the other side of Arisu. The girl was her assignment and she couldn't let anything happen to her. "Lets get you inside ok. Then we can sort out everything." She smiled at the girl.

Martine leaned back slightly and got a better look at Arisu, "ohh? Jeremy's up to something... Let's go and scare him a little." He hopped along and cooed to announce himself, "hhheeeyyyy, You should have been down at the docks, it was very lonely down there all by ourselves."
Tristan sighed, "I don't know why I bother hitting you."

Heru nearly face-palmed, but didn't. Why do I even bother? he mentally asked himself.
Arisu simply nodded, not removing her hands from her head.

Ӎeru Ҭakku(タツクメル) (たつくめる)->Opening Transmission Line...
...Connection Established...
Line on; Mission Begin...╔═══════════════════════════════════════════════════╗ Meru stood back as Rose and Jeremy huddled around Akemi. His arms were crossed and he stared coldly at Jeremy. Is he telling the truth? What is he trying to do? Did I get it all wrong? Is she really the Princess? or just a look alike? Who is that man? All these thoughts spun around his mind. It was so much better when he had someone to tell him what to do.
That must be how the whole of Dragalia must be right now. Sure, they had a Council to rule in case a heir was not present, but it was no replacement for the moral of an actual ruler. After a moment, Meru walked up, kneeling right in front of the girl. Even if is she is not the Princess, she seems to be in need of help. Meru wasn't a cold person, but the fact that the girl looked exactly like the Princess could have biased him a bit. "How are you feeling? Are you alright?" Meru asked blankly. Without waiting for an answer he turned to Rose.
"Rose, I think you're right, we should get her inside. Can you help me get her into the castle?" Meru gently pushed Jeremy out of the way so he could lift Akemi's arm behind his own head, to support her, and if the need arise, to carry her inside. "Can you move your entourage out of the way please?" Meru inquired the man whom came waltzing in behind them, whom seemed to be familiar with Jeremy. ((That would be Martine, in case you're confused)) ╚═══════════════════════════════════════════════════╝#Sign Off#

Rose nodded. She stood on Arisu's other side to help her back into the castle. At the moment Rose was just worried about Arisu's saftey and what that attack earlier might mean. While she was pondering what happened she noticed that same group from earlier. "You guys can stay out here and talk but we need to get this girl inside. Now!"((bleh for writers block))

Martine raised his left eyebrow, stepping to the side, "Really calling a princess this girl? really people ov-Ahhh, that one hurt!" He began rather well but it descended into him waving his arms at Tristan. "Don't hit me that hard, If I didn't like you so much I would have you exe- ah who am I kidding, I'm not that kind of king."

Ranku 9898 Noise stared at the ground, "I was always standing where you just saw me appear, and she was standing where she is now." She pointed to explain her point, "I was going to take it down to prove my point but..John always was the jumpy type, he was aiming for my he hit her simple as that. As to why we were there, that was just where I caught up with them." ((Alright, I think I'm a little lost on what exactly Joseph is being shown. Here's what I got out of that - tell me where I'm wrong. Noise created this illusion to show Joseph a scene of her past. In this scene, a younger version of herself stood with a boy and a girl. The younger her (I'll call LN (Little Noise) for short) was saying something about hiding from these people that tested on them. She held up her hand to take down some sort of illusion - which we don't yet know what it was. LN is going to take the illusion down even though she doesn't want to because the boy and girl wanted her to. Suddenly, the boy made a spike of earth shoot up and stab LN for no apparent reason. But then LN faded away and switched places with the girl they were with, who happened to be the boy's sister, and thus the girl died. And now the present Noise, standing with Joseph watching the scene is crying. Am I close?))

Heru resisted the urge to sigh. Jeremy was obviously trying to pass Akemi off as a regular girl, but Martine pretty much destroyed that plan. That would mean the girl would have to die, even if she didn't know who she was. However, he simply stepped out of the way so that they could get her inside. He wouldn't do anything without orders.

Jeremy chuckled nervously he helped bring everyone inside then looked to Heru. Once people were settled he took the man my his arm and bowed to the company.
"We'll be back in a moment, Sorry."
The man took Heru down the hall and into a study were he closed the door and immediately started to cry softly. He sat down on the couch and put his head in his hands. This was to much for him. He looked up at his fellow country man for a moment only to sob and put his head back down.
"I d-don't know what to d-do Heru... P-please Help m-me."
Jeremy tried to get a hold of himself but couldn't stop for the life of him. He pulled out his handkerchief and wiped at his eyes then blew his nose.

"First of all, you have to stop crying. You need to remain calm if you're going to do anything," Heru told Jeremy. "I assume you were trying to trick the memory-less princess that she isn't the Dragalian princess, correct? And you were doing it to save her from death, correct? Surely you knew she would eventually remember who she was. So why?"
