The place was in shambles. The walls crumbled around the ones remaining the in area. Among the rumble is a fallen and broken chandelier.

A loud monstrous roar can be heard, coming from what appears to be a huge beast monster with a flaming blue mane and ears that have clearly just overblotted.

"We need to hurry on now Whitecourt the others won't be able to hold the beast off for much longer" stated the masked headmaster.

The headmaster attempts to usher the short white hair Half Fae girl out of the room or what little remains of the mirror chamber of Night Raven College.

"But what about their safety aren't you supposed to be protecting your students not the other way around?" She questioned.

She looked back to the fight going on watching very closely and on edge as she focused her attention on the 3 students currently fighting the beast.

The headmaster stayed silent.

"Is there anything we can do besides flee and abandon our dorm mates and friends?" The girl said with an uneasy tone in her voice.

Aria Whitecourt surroundings had wrapped, twisted, & turned, the next thing she knew she was fighting the monster herself with not just the 3 students she saw earlier but a few more that shouldn't be here, she shouldn't be here. She should have already left this room by now and fleeing with the headmaster at this very moment.

"Hmm at the moment I'm afraid not, perhaps if we had a talented beast master around to handle this matter, we might have stood a chance against this beast but atlas there is none currently on Sage Island" the headmaster replied.

She looks around in a panic, taking in the sight of the students that shouldn't be here. One of those students before her grabbed her hand.

"Oy! What are you still doing here! I told ya to leave and let me handle this?" Said a short man with deep red piercing eyes, in a harsh tone.

The girl knew this man. This man was Lilia Vanrouge a fellow 3rd year and was someone who became near and dear to her heart within these last 3 years at Night Raven College.

"I can't just abandon you to die you senile old man!" She yelled.

"you can leave me you just don't want to, Now leave! you will only get in the way and distract me!" Lilia snapped back.

In the distance there was a flash of light as another student appeared in the distance clearly going unnoticed by the students in the area most of them too busy fighting the overblotted beast.

The girl flinched back slightly at those words, taken aback and hurt from how harsh they were delivered with no hesitation.

Back to Aria and Lilia.

Even Lilia and the white hair girl, Aria Whitecourt didn't notice the arrival of another student in the area.

"You don't mean that-"

"I SAID GO! now before-"

A loud piercing noise could be heard as both Lilia and Aria's eyes went wide. Lilia looks down to see one of the beast tails has in fact impaled his chest.

Blood spills out of his mouth as he coughs. The tail retracts from his body as Lilia Vanrouge falls down to the ground with a harsh thud, huge amounts of blood pour out of the hole in his chest.

"LILIA!" Aria screams as an arm wraps around her waist and pulls her back.

Before Aria could collapse next to Lilia's body in tears, the student the same one that appeared earlier unnoticed had picked the girl up and tossed her over his should and proceeds to runs out of the room. Muttering something under his breath.

"I'm sorry"

"Let me go!" She screamed pounding her fists against the man's back.

However, the next thing she knew. Aria bolted upright in her bed. Her heart racing as she picked up the pocket watch on her nightstand and held it closely to her chest.

. . .

Inhale

Exhale

Breathe in, Breathe out...

'That's right I'm in Heartslabyul, more specifically I'm in my bedroom at Night Raven College. There's no beast here'

I- I was dreaming no, part of that was definitely real and was a fragment of an old memory of a past that no longer exists, but not all of the nightmare occurred in said memory. Some parts of it were wrong.

Lilia wasn't at the mirror chamber that day, he wasn't even at Sage's Island during that fight. Why must her mind torment her further?

Aria hugs her self tighter, trying to calm down the fast heart rate and focus on steadying her breathing.

That wasn't real. Lilia was never there. He is alive. He is alive. She repeated those words over and over until she managed to calm down somewhat.

It was terrible enough to know any of that did happen and will happen again if she doesn't manage to turn the tables in her favor and change the past enough to prevent such a fate from reoccurring yet again.

Suddenly there was a knock on the door. Aria jumps startled and then disappears into specs of red instantly teleporting away all of a sudden, the red specs remained for only the next few seconds before fading away.

The easiest way to find Sebek is to walk around the Night Raven campus, going "where's my Sebek?"

It elicits odd stares and plenty of snickers from the other students, but it gets the job done. You'll know when he's nearby. After repeating this phrase enough times and in multiple places around campus, you'll hear a familiar thundering cry.

"I am not your Sebek!"

The shout is eventually followed by the man himself. You can tell what direction he's in by the heavy stomps, thudding against the ground almost as loud as his voice. His frown is as sharp as his furrowed brows. The slight tinge of embarrassment colors his face.

"Human! How dare you..."

The familiar face makes you smile with joy. "There you are! There's my Sebek."

He falters. It's clear he has so much to say, but can't find the right words to get out first. They pile up in his mouth while he stammers. You fear you may have traumatized him until the verbal barrage bursts out like a dam.

"How dare you! You know I serve none other than the great heir to Briar Valley. To even imply that I am yours? A mere human's? Inconceivable! Your absurdity knows no bounds!"

He sounds as energetic as ever. You decide to interrupt the angry monologue before he really gets going.

"Sebek, I wanted to know if we're still having lunch together."

"To insult the very essence of my being! As if you..."

It takes a hot second for your inquiry to reach his ears, but when he catches it, the rambling drifts off. He grows oddly quiet. He balls his hands into fists and unclenches them several times in quick succession, testing the limits of his uniform gloves. This would already have delved into a physical fight if you were any other student.

Despite your inane actions, you're practically harmless. Any great guard should easily be able to ignore petty taunts. It's best to consider this a test. Sebek clears his throat.

"Of course we are. You didn't have to come find me just for that. I always keep my word." The redness of his ear tips peeking out from under his hair remind you of a Christmas tree.

"Great! Can't wait."

You stick out your hand for a parting high five. Sebek subverts expectations by grabbing your palm. His gloves are warm and a little sweaty after rushing to find you, and his grip is anything but soft in a boyish display of dominance.

"Do not do this again," he says. He's stern, but after that warning his voice drops to a normal level and he sounds almost gentle. "Just... text me, like a normal person. You have my number."

Aria Whitecourt's pocket watch ⌚

The pocket watch is has been passed down from her grandparents. Haven't decided if it's from her biological grandparents or from the elderly couple who adopted her in the magic less world.

During timeline 2 Aria had enchanted the pocket watch to hold her memories of the previous timelines. Without an object to store those memories her mind tends to spiral alot. She also gets overwhelmed easily and often.

She prefers to have little to no memories of the previous timelines (life is less stressful and confusing that way) but doesn't want to get rid of them and instead stores them in the pocket watch she cherishes.

However Aria will remember the past timelines when she is dreaming, but only when her enchanted pocket watch is in the room with her when she sleeps.

she can transfer the memories stored into the watch back and forth from her head and the watch. She cannot transfer them into other peoples minds.

Aria can be selective and choose specific memories to keep in the watch and which ones she chooses to remember currently without having to look at her pocket watch.

The past timeline memories also can be viewed as a hologram screen coming out of the pocket watch. The memories can be flipped thru like an album of ghost camera photos as well.

This holographic ghost like camera video archive aspect/feature is the main way Aria can show everyone else her memories of the previous timelines.

I'm thinking of having Aria's timeline 2 memories being poured into the watch when she used her unique magic during Grimes overblot.

Rewriting time didn't alter or change the enchanted pocket watch. Aria's memories of timeline 2 were already in the pocket watch by the time child Aria of timeline 3 had accidentally teleported to another world.

If the pocket watch is from Aria's biological grandparents. Then when Aria in the other world I timeline 3 Ms. Whitecourt had the pocket watch the entire time. It wasn't until weeks after returning to twisted wonderland that Aria received said pocket watch from her mother once more. By being in close proximity to it, was able to regain past timeline memories in her dreams.

Now If the Pocket watch is from the elderly couple the watch still works but is unable to due the hologram and look thru archive stuff while both object and Aria are in the magic less world. The pocket watch regains full magic capabilities once in twisted wonderland.

The pocket watch never lost it's enchanted once given it no matter what Aria does with her unique magic rewrite time. Aria put a strong enchantment on it and the unique magic is swayed by her desires and goals. The pocket watch is meant to let Aria access the past timeline memories in case it hold important info that could be used to help Aria reach her main goal to prevent the overblots from causing mass casualties.

Another detail to mention Aria does sometimes remember past timelines even after waking up, and will soon store those memories back into the pocket watch.

However, she might keep the memory of waking up from a strange dream or nightmare while making it so she just can't recall the specifics of the dream/nightmare by leaving those parts of the memory within the pocket watch.

Sian and Yuzu's background

They live in a magical medieval fantasy world.

Recently before getting isekaied Yuzu lived in a cottage in the woods not to far off from a village settlement. Sian usually hangs out at a castle with her childhood friend 'Prince'.

Sian used to live in a hometown full of pixie fairies like her, think of pixie hollow and the Tinkerbell movies.

My point is Yuzu and Sian are actually in a more similar boat as Grim not knowing Holidays from Twisted wonderland.

Not to mention also being very outdated on technology and confused by them. Hell Ace on week one had to point out the light switch in Ramshackle, used it and surprised the two girls with the power of electric light sources.

So yeah these OCS are from a world of magic but not a modern world of magic unlike twisted wonderland.

Also pixie Fae from Sian & Yuzu's world are a tad different or at least the laughter born ones are. Sian being one of those fairies/pixies.

I think my OCS from this Au have experience or heard of generic seasonal festivals in their world.

Birthdays, mothers day, and father's day, will also exist in Sian's world.

Might need to further look into what holidays or celebrations their medieval fantasy world might hold, that includes any fairy related holidays like in one of the tinker bell movies.

So I'm probably gonna rewatch TinkerBell and the lost treasure. I wanna add that festival/event as something that is celebrated at Sian's hometown.

The Nightmare Part 2

Content Warning: character death and immense bleeding.

Spoiler Warning: on unique magic from Diasomnia.

other parts: part 1, part 3

Suddenly there was a knock on the door. Aria jumped startled and disappeared instantly teleporting away all of a sudden, only red sparkles remained for the next few seconds before fading away.

Thump, Bang

"Eep!"

Crash

"…Ugh"

"Hmm? Oh? what are you doing here child?"

Aria is hunched over on the floor the pocket watch lays nearby on the floor. She looks up and turns her head to see Lilia on her right, sitting at his desk clearly in the middle of playing videogames with an online friend.

"I- I was…Urk" she shuttered and clutched her head as the nightmarish scene flashed in her mind, the wounds still fresh digging into her mind.

Once the image plaguing her mind vanished, she looked over to see Lilia crouched down right next to her, now rubbing circles into her back trying his best to soothe the poor girl.

All of a sudden, the door to the room is slammed open with a heavy bang. revealing a very distressed and panicked Silver breathing heavily.

"I heard a loud noise is everything alright Fa-……" notices Aria in the room "Lilia?"

Lilia looks over to Silver and flashes him a grin.

"It appears that I have an unexpected visitor tonight" Lilia chucked making light of the situation to ease the tension within the room.

Lilia reaches his hand out towards Aria. Aria proceeds to take his hand as they both get up from the floor. Now looking around and taking in her surrounds Aria can tell she is in fact in Lilia's room within Diasomnia of all places.

. . .

Breathes in

Breathes out

Aria then looks down and sees her pocket watch on the floor and immediately goes to pick it up once more. Cradling in within her hands up against her chest.

"I apologize for the intrusion Vice warden Lilia," Looks towards Silver and nods "and to you as well, it appears I have teleported here in my half wake state after having an intense dream."

"it's no trouble at all. Are you feeling better my child?"

Aria nods.

"I should head back to my dorm now"

"aw so soon but you just got here, your not even gonna stay over for a little bit you gonna make me cry, sobs"

. . .

Aria contemplates staying, feeling uneasy as she squeezes the pocket watch in her hands.

Breaths in

Breaths out

"I guess I could stay for a few more minutes." Aria relents.

"Wonderful!" Lilia claps his hands together before looking towards Silver. "Silver? mind escorting Aria down to the lounge while I go make ourselves something to drink"

Silver goes pale in the face.

"Aria came to visit you Lilia, so how about i make us drinks and you take her to the lounge"

"Hmm fine you make a fair point then we will do just that instead" Lilia remarked.

Silver promptly leaves the bedroom and goes down the hallway. After turning a corner, he leans up against the wall, his hand clutching at his chest, his heartbeat erratic. Beads of sweat dropped from his forehead.

Inhales, Exhales.

Silver was coming to grips on what he just saw, what they both saw in her nightmare.

Tonight was a lot. It was strange that his unique magic took him to Aria's dream. Usually, he ends up in the dreams of those he's close to like Sebek.

A loud piercing noise could be heard as Silver's eyes went wide. Looking towards Aria and Lilia about 30 feet away from him.

So, it was certainly a surprise when he saw the white dove circling Aria as Silver stood nearby in the ruins of the mirror chamber going unnoticed as an overblot fight was occurring with what appeared to be a large dire beast with blue flames coming out of it.

Silver witnessed one of the beast tails has impaled Lilia's chest.

Blood spills out of his father's mouth as Lilia coughs. The overblotted beast's tail retracts from Lilia's body as he falls down to the ground with a harsh thud, huge amounts of blood pour out of the hole in Lilia's chest.

Silver wastes no time running straight towards Aria and Lilia.

"LILIA!" Aria screams as Silver wraps an arm around her waist and pulls Aria away from Lilia.

Silver then proceeds to lift Aria up and off the ground as he tosses her over his shoulder and runs out of the room before Aria could crumple down to the floor sobbing next to Lilia's gravely injured body.

Silver needs to get the girl away and to a safe distance before he can calm her down properly.

As much as it pains him to leave his father like that dream or not. He has to remind himself that he needs to attend to the dreamer first. Calming them down so he can hopefully change this nightmare back to a peaceful dream before it's too late.

Aria pounds her fists upon Silver's back.

"Let me go!" She yelled.

Silver instantly mutters back a apology to the girl as he continues to run away with her draped over his shoulder.

Silver's mind reels back from recalling Aria's recent nightmare. Silver pulls himself off from against the wall and heads towards Diasomnia's kitchen.

Unfortunately, before Silver could finish running towards a safer location Aria wakes up and the nightmare crumples away. Silver ends up waking up as well.

mother of lumas🌟

I edited in a tad to mention in more detail how the girls ended up in another world outside of Twisted wonderland.

The rest is basically the same.

Aria Whitecourt and Yumi

Backstory of current timeline

Aria was born in the Queendom of Roses and her childhood was spent in clocktown. She lived alone with just her mother and they had relatives living nearby. She lived a block away from Deuce.

Ms. Whitecourt and Ms. Spade used to be coworkers for a bit before Aria's mom got another job nearby, but they still met up and had their kids play together as friends. So, Aria and Deuce were childhood friends. Aria is 2 years older than Deuce.

Sometime between ages 6-12 for Aria. With both Yumi and Deuce 2 years younger than her, at the White Rabbit festival. Yumi was running after a ball she dropped and almost got run over by a car. Aria managed to grab Yumi and teleported them away to safety. However the place they found themselves in was another world, one without magic.

Yumi just met Aria and was playing catch with Aria and Deuce right before the two of them both ended up in the magic less world unable to teleport back. Yumi teleported on instinct and upon arrival her magic was being suppress in this new world they found themselves at.

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

Yumi is the same age as Deuce or a year younger than him.

She doesn't remember anything from before ending up in the magic less world as a child. So she has no memories of Twisted wonderland and if she has any it be vague and she thinks they were just fever dreams and denies them possibly being real.

Yumi doesn't believe in Arias stories of twisted wonderland. They are clearly just young Aria's exaggerated tall tales that Aria just won't move on from. There's no way she or Aria came from another world, let alone one with magic.

~~~~~~~~~

So both Yumi and Aria end up as orphans in the magic less world and stayed at the same orphanage during their childhood.

Yumi got adopted first by a kind loving family and has siblings (haven't decided fully on specifics for them, like are they older or younger than Yumi? and how many are there?).

Aria gets adopted year(s) later than Yumi by a sweet elderly couple who lives in the same neighborhood as Yumi. So, Aria & Yumi reunite as neighbors and even attended the same school tho Aria is a upperclassman to Yumi at the school they attend.

They either became friends before Yumi was adopted back at the orphanage or shortly after the two reunited.

Now a year or few months prior to ending back up on twisted wonderland again. The grandparents that are raising Aria passed away and Yumi's family has adopted her. Though Aria is still mourning and isn't feeling comfortable living with Yumi's family she feels like a burden and most importantly feels out of place and like she doesn't belong.

Basically Aria is still probably in the depression state of mourning over the elderly couple who took care of her not that long ago in her eyes.

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

For waking up at NRC. Yumi and Aria wakeup during Ace & Deuce's entrance ceremony like in twisted wonderland game. However, Deuce won't be able to recognize Aria. She has changed enough appearance wise that it's reasonable to not recognize her at first glance, it was over 5 years ago.

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

Now Aria and Yumi are both related to a Twisted wonderland character like in the twisted wonderland return home au's I've read and enjoyed immensely. However, i will not be revealing who they are related to you in this post.
