The day went by quickly as they finished their training and done eating dinner. The girls went straight to their room, ready to lay down and covered in those thick and soft duvet. But Taeyeon and Yuri were heading to the library, as usual and others were so used of that sight that they did not suspect a thing. Whilst, Taecyeon and Wooyoung were already waiting in the library as promised earlier in the morning. Taeyeon did not tell Yuri beforehand about the sudden meeting with the two Royal Guards because she knew Yuri will be giving infinity excuses to avoid them, to avoid burdening others and continue being the selfish Yuri.

"Tell us everything." muttered Wooyoung as Taeyeon sat in front of him and Taecyeon. Yuri, who seems surprised by their presence tried to walk away from the scene when Wooyoung called her name, asking her to sit too. "Well, how about we start off with Yuri?"

Yuri was obviously taken aback by Wooyoung's suggestion but she know she could not hide it any longer. The battle will happen soon and she know that both her and Taeyeon are in need of help in searching for answers to their curiousity. They cannot bear any consequences or upcoming risks.

"I think I may have a power I don't think I should have." Yuri tried to hide her nervousness by clasping tight her grip. "I can compulse."

Her words clearly took Wooyoung's and Taecyeon's breath away. "That is absolutely absurd." blurted Wooyoung between the deep sigh.

"I cannot fully control it yet." said Yuri, trying to stay composed. She feels at blame for not telling them earlier.

"So, you have tried it before?" asked Taecyeon. "I mean, have you ever compulsed anyone before?"

Yuri took a few seconds before answering his question, keeping him more curious. "Yoona. First I compulsed her to forget everything about me and then I compulsed her to make her pretend to know me. The third time is to keep her at a distance." admit Yuri in a low voice as she felt guilty compulsing Yoona for three times.

Wooyoung stood up as he finally recalled the moment of the weird accident. [25]"That accident! It was weird enough when Yoona immediately know Yuri after she hugged her. And I noticed both you and Yoona were not close like before. Less talking, less eye contact and both of you don't even walk together anymore. I carelessly thought it was because that feeling thing regarding Nichkhun, but I should have known earlier." explained Wooyoung in a single breath as he walked back and forth. "Nichkhun was weird too. He seems to know something but it can't be since he is so bad at hiding away his feelings. Did you compulse him too?"

"No." She just cannot compulse him. That moment when Nichkhun looked into her eyes, Yuri was already knocked down. She brushed off those memories and tried to concentrate and focus her mind.  She changed the topic to prevent the two Royal Guards throwing all those 'why' questions. "I tried to compulse Taeyeon next but I failed. I cannot compulse her."

The two guys's jaws dropped again. "She suffered temporary headache after she tried to compulse me." interrupt Taeyeon. "And she tried it twice."

"Compulsion is not common here. It has been long extinct and only White Witch possessed it for now." said Taecyeon. "Compulsion can kill you if you used it unneccesarily. It may have unknown risks if you compulsed too much. It is like you are playing with the balance of nature because the deity do not favour the act of erasing memories."

"What about you, Taeyeon?" asked Wooyoung, trying to relate another story with all this incident. Maybe there will be some clue or hint after hearing both sides stories. Taeyeon starts off with the story of her reoccuring nightmares that has been haunting her almost every ni
