"Yeah, it can't be a dream or a hallucination if more than one person had it..." Dan said as he saw him like that but he soon fell to silent and
only added after a while:
"Do you think that the others also have these weird memories?" that was something that came to his mind after hearing what Grandpa Ben said.
The chance of everyone having those memories was higher than the chance of only them having them.
"I didn't think about that... Let me go and ask" grandpa Ben seemed surprised as if he hadn't thought about that at all. So he said that and left to talk with another friend of his.
They talked for a while and while they were talking Dan pulled his phone and entered his account in social media he wanted to know what was happening and the fastest way news could move in was the internet.
And as expected, he saw many posts from people talking about how so many people fainted for no reason, but they weren't the only posts out there, as another major piece of news was about the many car and airplane crashes.
There was all kind of theories on the internet some said a new virus hit worldwide some said aliens were attacking earth etc. etc...
As he was scrolling through his phone, a video caught his interest.
The video was taken from a fishing baot, and it showed a strange animal curciling it curiously.
The video was shaky and it wasn't clear, but many people thought that it did seem genuine, but there were also many others that said that it was just a joke.
Dan was thinking about the chance of the video being genuine when he suddenly heard the voice of Grandpa Ben next to him.
"It is as you said Dan we are not the only ones remembering thing about leaving in other worlds, I asked old Sam about it and he said that he also has those weird memories. But when I asked him about it and he described them, what he described wasn't the same as us, he described a world with technological advancement far ahead of ours, a world where humanity had the ability to build space-ships and that they even had cities in Mars."
Old Sam was another friend of Grandpa Ben, and he had a good relationship with Dan too.
Hearing what Grandpa Ben said. Dan was able to remember a world like that, just as old Sam said the world had a technological advancement that was ahead of our planet with at least hundreds of years.
"What do you think is happening?" grandpa Ben asked.
"I don't know" Dan shocks his head helplessly.
It seemed that even in the midst of all of this, what was happening to him was the weirdest; the others only had memories of one world, while he had memories of 21 worlds.
Dan looked at all the people around him who had confused looks on their faces and he wondered just what was happening.
"Just what's happening?" grandpa Ben said with a heavy sight.
Other people weren't as calm as Grandpa Ben, many of them were scared and nervous, some of them ran to the police car and asked the policeman about what was happening, but he didn't know, he just said that the orders come from the higher-ups and even the head of their department didn't know anything.
"Let's just return home for now" Grandpa Ben sighed.
Dan denied Grandpa Ben's invitation to have dinner with him and his family, wished him a good night and entered his home.
Dan sat there in his room while thinking about what was happening.
After staying like that for a while he thought about all the worlds that he had memories of, got a notebook and started writing everything he could think of about the other worlds.
He didn't Finish till mid-night as there was twenty-one world and even though it seems easy to just write something from your memory, but those memories of his were weird. As soon as he started concentrating on one of them a strong headache would hit him, the pain was unbearable.
So with pain and suffering he finished it and as he took one last look at what he wrote he started thinking about what was happening, but no matter how much he thought he couldn't find an explanation, or how those memories appeared in everyone's minds and why did everyone lose consciousness at the same time as that was simply illogical and unbelievable.
19 earth, later known as area 02:
Burning heavenly palace:
The magnificent red palace that stood there overlooking everything around it as if a piece of shining red ruby showed the personality of its owner clearly.
An overbearing and arrogant person that didn't care about anyone, and didn't look at anyone as an equal, one of the world seven Gods; Raining Flame Ethan.
Most of the time the palace kept its sacred and revered image. But it wasn't the same that day, as everyone in the palace was raging because someone had actually stole something from the palace.
Even though it happened yesterday's morning and even with all the investigation they only found a lead about the thief the next day's morning.
Usually it would have taken only a few minutes to find who the thief was as the number of people with tracking abilities weren't small... No actually the thief would have been caught without even touching anything, but it was different that day.
Everyone was just waking up because of the weird happening at that morning and because of the confusion and weird memories that appeared out of nowhere in their minds they weren't able to know about what happened till a long time after.
"Everyone let's move," said a young man to the squad in front of him.
The young man was Harold and despite his young age of twenty-two he was one of the burning knights, a title only given to the twelve leaders of the twelve royal squads and known as the Flame nation's young star.
The people in front of him were some new members that were joining his squad.
He knew that the person who they were after was just some rat who took the opportunity when the palace was in chaos to steal something from it. So he chose to take the new members to take a look about how things can be in the field and get some confidence and so that they won't be nervous when they leave for more important missions.
...
On Robin's face there was a mix of nervousness. excitement. and regret. But as he looked to his right and saw the girl laying there, all those expressions disappeared from his face leaving only love and care.
The girl that was lying there in the cart next to him was his sister Anie, their parents died while they were still young and left them to take care of each other, Robin being the oldest started taking care of his three years old sister from the age of seven.
Using his ability that allowed him to teleport to become a thief in the local gang. He did his best trying to make his sister live a good life, but as you would expect in a world like that even taking care of one's self is hard at the age of seven, not to mention taking care of a little girl, so his sister was always sick and had a weak body since her childhood.
And it seemed as if her situation was getting worst and worst by the day.
He knew that he needed a good deal, a good mission which will leave him with enough money to take care of his sister for the rest of her life.
So he started paying attention to the talk going around in bars and the back alleys listening to the drunk guards mumbling and bragging about what they did, what cargo they guarded or what their masters get from the last fight against the near bandits, many of those seemed unimportant but he got some pretty useful information sometimes.

Like that best thing that he knew was when the guards were talking about what their masters used to woe and attract women.
As one guard was talking about how his master got the biggest diamond he ever laid his eyes on to his wife when she found out about his mistresses.
The people were surprised as they saw him using his hands to show how big that diamond was.
Then one man talked saying that that wasn't worth mentioning as his master had paid an unimaginable price just to get a crystal for a woman and in the end, she didn't even accept it which led to him just throwing it in a corner without caring about it ever again.
At first when they heard what the owner of the voice said the people in the bar turned their heads wanting to curse the man and laugh at him. But when they saw who he was, no one said anything as he was one of the Burning Heavenly Palace inner guards and his master could only be Raining Flame, God Ethan.
When Robin heard that he didn't really put it in his mind at all, he did wish for a thing like that to be his so that he could live with his sister happily, but he throw that thought out of his mind right away because he knew that even if the crystal really did exist it would never be his.
But for some reason what that guard said kept on repeating in his head.
It was then that the nation entered a high alert state which led him to think that something was going to happen.
As he thought about that he just couldn't stop himself from making some preparation.
First, he decided on using his most valuable possession, a copy stone, something he get from one of his jobs.
Copy stones were magical stones found in the deepest parts of the great blue ocean, it is so rare and expansive.
All of that is because it has a great ability, it can copy a person's ability, with his approval of course, so that the one having the stone can use it, it can only be used one time and it have a time limit of ten minutes and it become useless after that, but still many people wants it and searchs for it.
Of course Robin wasn't just going to use the stone for the crystal after all he didn't even know if it existed nor if a chance of him getting close to the palace can come but he was going to use it because he was going to need it anyway as it would play a great part in any mission he was going to do, he thought so because of an ability that he wanted to copy.
Johnny the leader of the gang that he belonged to has an ability that any thief would kill for, he calls it 'all what you wish for' it's an ability that shows you the location of anything you want and its surrounding as long as it is no further than a hundred kilometers from you.
For Robin, that ability is a most have for his last big job no matter what that job was.
After getting his hand on the copy stone and getting Johnny's ability he was ready.
A week passed and nothing happened. but one morning, everyone in the city fell unconscious.
