Hello everyone! This is the general plot of my story, it contains significant spoilers so read at your own risk.
Exposition:
Who:
Main Characters: The POV switches between Caris and Avery, but Avery would be the main character
Supporting characters: Professor Moose, Lady Amaya, Tress, Adawnis, Galiena, Caris’s mom and brother
Point of Attack:
Caris, while out biking with her boyfriend, slams into a rock and gets a concussion. However, she seems completely fine until her best friend Avery comes to visit her and instead of recognizing Avery as her best friend, her impression of Avery is that she looks like Skye (Avery’s sister). To regain Caris’s memories of Avery, the two agree to undergo an experimental procedure that will link their minds.
Rising Action:
Once in her mind, Avery meets a series of figures in Caris’s mind. The first of them, Professor Moose, represents Caris’s left brain and attempts to help Avery by listing out a table of possible causes. It is here that Avery admits that she has drifted apart from Caris somewhat, as they’re in different schools now and she has made new friends and joined new activities. They haven’t seen each other for months, and despite being neighbors, Avery delivered Caris’s last birthday present three months late. The professor plants the seed that perhaps something in Caris’s subconsciousness is deliberately blocking the memories of Avery to prevent hurt. Avery, after making this bit of progress, is transferred into the right side of Caris’s brain where she asks the questions to someone called “Lady Amaya” who can only speak rhyme. Frustrated by her lack of progress with Avery considering the limitations of her speech, Amaya banishes Avery to another part of the subconsciousness while singing an original song (Yes I know how ridiculous this sounds but hopefully it will make sense when you read the actual story).
Climax:
Avery meets three figures at the “memory processing center” and the trio reveal that Caris’s concussion shook a lot of memories out of their places. The trio, while replacing the memories, noticed that the memories of Avery have been dislodged and kept them in limbo, wanting to respect the relationship wile simultaneously being angry at Avery’s treatment of Caris. Avery is forced to realize that Caris has done all she could (constantly asked to hang out online and took every rejection peacefully) and now it is up to Avery to repair their relationship. It takes some begging and promises from Avery for the siblings to hand over the box. Avery enters another realm where she chases Caris (or the version of Caris in her subconsciousness) and gives her the box. Caris regains her memories, and Avery apologizes to her in subconsciousness just before they wake up
Falling Action:
Avery and Caris wake up and Caris gives Avery her forgiveness and they two promise to keep in regular contact.
Resolution:
The story ends with the friends at an amusement park, hinting that they have reconciled to some degree.
