The Secrets Hidden Within The Dairies Of The Nations

A Series Of Doors

"So basically this Vision Powder has trapped Alfred in a specific part of his mind and will either show him what he most desperately needs to see or it will show him the exact opposite of that" Francis said slowly and  Arthur simply nodded. 

"And you have no idea which side of the powder has stuck?" He asked baffled causing Arthur to sigh and pause in the middle of the hallway. 

"No, I've never seen the powder in action before so I don't know what the signs are" He said tiredly as he ran his fingers through his hair. Francis bit his lip worriedly and glanced away from Arthur as they continued walking don the hallway. 

"The good news is that we no longer have to worry about Alfred accidentally becoming trapped inside of his own mind now" Arthur said semi-cheerfully causing Francis to raise a questioning eyebrow at him.

"The powder will show him a series of doors, some will be blocked off depending on which side of the powder stuck. These doors represents memories and whatever is in them will be shown to him, whether they are positive or negative doesn't matter as long as the message gets across. After he has seen what is in each available door he will awaken from his trance" He explained causing Francis to let out a long breath of relief, at least there was one thing they could be thankful about. 

They paused outside of their room, Francis gave him a small smile before slipping in while Arthur sighed tiredly as he continued walking towards the meeting room. It was up to him to explain to the others what the Vision Powder was and what it was doing to Alfred. He could already feel a headache coming on.

He kinda wished that they could distract themselves with the book but as soon as Alfred had entered his trance the book had disappeared. They had all come to the conclusion that this was the ancients way of saying that they could not read the book until Alfred was better. He took in a deep breath before pushing the doors open, this was going to be a very long conversation.

Alfred groaned softly as he slowly sat up and rubbed his head, the last thing he remembered was talking to Allen and then everything went black. He stood up started looking around in confusion. It didn't seem like he was in a room but everything was grey and there was an uncountable amount of doors, some were shadowed out and when he tried to open one it wouldn't budge. 

"Odd" He muttered to himself as he turned away from the blacked out door and instead focused on the door next to it. It looked like it was made of a very old wood, in fact all of them did. His eyebrows furrowed as he placed his hand on the door knob, for some reason it felt like he should recognize this door but he just couldn't figure out why. 

He shrugged his shoulders before pushing the door open to see what was on the other side. There was bright light and suddenly he was standing in a completely different place. He glanced around and the more he saw the wider his eyes became, there was no way he was where he thought he was. 

His shoulders tensed up when he heard foot steps approaching, he whirled around as someone entered the room and he froze as he locked eyes with a pair of green eyes that looked right through him as if he wasn't even there.
