Zac listened to Morgan before rubbing the back of his neck. [color=orange]"Well...The 'corridors' I mentioned are kinda strange. You don't get to them through what you'd think of when you think of a door. It's more like a hole in space. I'm not sure a door in a forest, though."[/color] He paused as something played at the corner of his mind, and added, [color=orange]"Your master must be one powerful magic user, though. Besides using a ship or the corridors, the only other way you could travel to other worlds would be with some serious magic."[/color]

Zac jumped slightly at the sudden outburst, but kept his cool. He had a feeling that someone would react like that, so he wasn't all too surprised, nor could he blame him. What surprised him, however, was the flash of light in Alias' hand. There was a distinctly familiar-looking shape amidst the light, one that immediately rang bells in his head. He thought about saying something, but when no one else reacted, he held off. [color=orange][i]If it was what I think it was,[/i][/color] he thought, [color=orange][i]then it'll make itself known when the time's right. I don't need to rush anything.[/i][/color] He raised an eyebrow when Alias went on to talk about what he and Hoshi had been feeling. He reclined back against his ship, looking completely unbothered, and said, [color=orange]"If that's the case, then your friend might really be out there. Who knows, maybe he stumbled into a corridor and wound up on the other side okay or someone used some strong magic on him to whisk him away. If there's one thing I've learned in all my travels, it's that it's never a bad idea to listen to your heart."[/color]

He glanced over at Taivas as he asked him where he was from. With a shrug, he said, [color=orange]"Like I said, here and there. Where I'm from doesn't matter too much, at least not anymore."[/color] When he showed him the locket, Zac took a close look, searching his memory for those faces, before shrugging as he answered, [color=orange]"Sorry, man. I've been a lot of places and met a lot of people, but I don't think I've ever seen them before."[/color]

He fell into a thoughtful silence, then, as he thought about what he had been told. [color=orange][i]A dark, heavy feeling...a presence in the town across the water...[/i][/color] He wished he could talk to everyone else to hear what they had to say, but he knew he had to get to work on his ship. If he had a chance to talk to them, then he would, but that would have to wait. Regardless, he couldn't deny the bad feeling that had started to form in the pit of his stomach. As he turned back toward his ship to work, he heard Hoshi ask if he could take people with him. [color=orange]"I've only got three seats and one of them is mine,"[/color] he said as he began working on a severed wire. [color=orange]"I'm not particularly opposed to taking anyone with me, but you guys are gonna have to decide who."[/color]
