Cold… it was so so cold.
460Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡE5g16ADfrb
What happened? Why is there no light? She couldn’t see a thing, and she felt like she couldn’t physically move.
460Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlqn3Cld1q8
Was it a dream? How long will this last? It’s so…creepy and isolated. Her memories feel like they’re fading…
460Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsl1RKXShQ3
Who is she? What’s her name? What’s even her home address or phone number? Does she have blue eyes or green..or any eyes at all?? Wait..was she even human?? 460Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEWa34RNYQz
460Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡaz5SVWKn02
This is getting too real, she needs to wake up. This dream feels as if it’s never ending…
460Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQgomAzvp2u
Silence, that’s all she could hear and she was hating this. Deeply terrified that she was alone…
460Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡuh8afON1yh
“Liah..”
460Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1u6qi6NmRo
Huh? What was that? It sounds like a voice.
460Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ059Wz9mb2e
“Liah, wake up..”
460Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAkKk69XQqs
Liah, yeah, that’s her name! Liah England, That’s her full name!
460Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHBm5QhP8pE
She tried to move, more determined now then ever. Especially that she remembered her name, thanks to the voice.
460Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡb6UuFVxJ6v
A warm feeling is slowly showering over her, is she finally gonna open her eyes??
460Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpYIby8a2Mj
Come on, come on, come on!!
460Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnLb1156j77
“LIAH ENGLAND, FOR THE UNIVERSE’S SAKE, WAKE UP!!” The voice screamed loudly.
460Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsXA7SCa1W2
It broke the never ending dream and Liah ended up jolting straight up and fell off the small bed she was laying on. Now she was face first into what seemed to feel as a floor.
460Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnOYL93y6MX
“Ouchh… the heck is going on??” The red head slowly opened her eyes, holding her nose. “Was i..dreaming?” She looked around, still on the ground, her eyes slightly blurry and she ended up rubbing the blur from them.
460Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRJY0qUCLKb
“Welcome, Liah England, I have been waiting for you..” The voice was deep and sounded close by.
460Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡasNFx20wzL
Liah ever so slowly lifted herself up, “waiting for me— WAIT WHERE AM I?? WHERE’S MOM AND DEXTER?!” Pure panic sunk in too quick, for her mother was sickly and her little brother was only 14. She needed to get back to them.
460Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZbsJEK5Jii
“Liah..calm down before you pass out again—“
460Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡm52oVPcjR5
“Calm down?! I need to get home and help my family! Christmas is coming soon and i need to help out with bills, presents, and food!” She had her hands tangled in her curly hair. Her green piercing eyes looking straight at this tall man, that for some odd reason, was wearing a huge blue robe. His hat was a weird cone shape and his shoes just as weird. Who is this clown? Halloween is already over!
460Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgw97rZfzAu
“Oh for goodness sake, get yourself together Liah so i can explain everything..” the man sighed and held the bridge of his nose in irritation. He looked up at her, his blue eyes looked like stars and galaxies lived within them.
460Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFvQiWXzUIX
She slowly nodded, breathing deep and slow for a few moments. “O-okay i’ll listen, Mister..uh..”
460Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAQaYNiMQUT
“Theodore.. Theodore The Fifth..” he smiled soft, but he could tell she was still confused. I mean who wouldn’t be. The room was as if you were in space itself. The walls looked infinite with galaxies and stars. While the ceiling was our own galaxy; The Milky Way. And here stood a man that looked like a wizard of some sort. Honestly, being confused could be an understatement.
460Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGp0LuVVilW
Liah looked around slowly, the surroundings sinking in.“Please, tell me where i am..” she whispered this, her bottom lip trembling slight, for fear was stabbing deep into the pit of her stomach.
460Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvbSrN7fw4e
“Welcome, dear Liah, to the universe’s one and only, Time Chamber. This is where we take care of time it self..” he walked towards her, the ground lit up a bit with each step he took.
460Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmUrW3tkwBd
She squints, “this has to be some joke, right ? What makes you think i will believe bull like that? I mean look at you, you look like a wacky magician..” Her voice showing she definitely didn’t believe him.
460Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡO4oPGcj42H
Theodore smirked soft, his eyebrows raising a bit. “Look down, child..”
460Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxXMG1sbbdI
“I’m 23 thank you very much—WOAH!!”
460Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQHVz0InmCY
Liah looked down, and what she saw was pretty cool. It was the earth, slowly rotating in space, with our moon circling around. She blinked rapidly, rubbing her eyes a bit to make sure it wasn’t fake.
460Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5tlkaNhTtE
The man chuckled, “See? We are above earth, above life itself. We are the ones who keeps the time of day and night at bay..”
460Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqmFwnAOhJn
She ended up chuckling, soon smiling and ended up laughing.
“Y-you really think, that i’ll believe we are really above earth, AND THIS is not some kind of computer image on the floor?!” She held her stomach, “ahh that’s a good one, Theodore..”
460Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡL7qCRFSwiI
Theodore’s eyes squint, his jaw clenched. “Ah..i see..so you don’t believe me?” He looked to the side, smirking evilly, then looked straight into her eyes.“Well then..toodaloo~”
460Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqtL0H6lEXl
Liah raised an eyebrow, “huh? Where are you— OH SHOOT!!!”
The invisible floor fell beneath her feet, and she began to fall to the earth.
460Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡth2hPaMgRU
Her heart raced and her screams where loud.
“HELP ME!! DON’T LET ME FALL YOU IDIOT!! I’M SORRY, I’M SORRY I DIDN’T LISTEN!! I’LL LISTEN AND BELIEVE YOU NOW!!” Her screams made her chest and throat feel like fire. Not to mention, her body was getting closer and closer to earth, and she was feeling the heat.
460Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbhNheSF2v0
Was this it? Is she going to die?
460Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDbQJLHvg4Y
Liah closed her eyes and held her body into a tight ball. Tears were now falling from her eyes. “I’m so sorry momma..i’m so sorry dexter, sis won’t be there to help you—“
460Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3G6GfPa9FX
She then felt her body hit back to the ground hard, her breath pretty much knocked out of her, and her eyes open in shock.
She laid there, soon getting her breath back and panting heavy.
460Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡk6poiL6o0p
“Ah..Did it open you’re eyes? Can i continue my speech now?” Theodore’s amused voice rang over to Liah’s ears.
460Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCP3UmpvNuo
Her heart was racing, she’s completely shocked at this point. She feels around, realizing she had fallen back in the same bed she woke up on. “You gotta be kidding me..the universe is messing with me..” she mumbled breathlessly.
460Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnJkwpIMW8a
“The universe wants you to work for them..” Theodore then put his hand out for her to grab, “ and they desperately need your help..”
460Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7Nc7m1jYNR
Her hand was shaking, but she took his hand and squints at him with pure irritation and anger. He helped her up, chuckling soft. “Sorry..had to make you believe me.”
460Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3mayLFlfxa
Liah sighed and rolled her eyes, “i could have died, you clown..”
460Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFScNp94uuZ
Theodore moved his other hand behind his neck, scratching it nervously as he chuckled. “I’m not a clown, i am a Time Keeper.. and About that..well..you’ll see..”
460Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGrblifyACs
“What do you mean, i’ll see?..i’ve seen enough, can i just go home??” Her eyes were showing pure frustration as she then sighed again.
460Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7T5W8jcHBE
“Not exactly, so just follow me..” As Theodore started to walk with her, he let go of her hand and pointed in front of them. She then could finally see a wooden door, just sitting there. How odd, a door in outer space.. but then again, there was a bed and a clownish Time Keeper.
460Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsWF0xRATDD
Theodore slowly opened the door knob, and there in the midst of them, was a huge hourglass. As they walked closer, she felt so tiny compared to it. The edges looked of glass that was blue with stars glittered in the mix. The whole hourglass it self was purely magnificent anyways. In the top, was a sunrise, and what seemed like water and sand going down into the bottom. While the bottom showed a moon rising into a starry sky, and the sand and water going up into the top. A true piece of art, something no human normally gets to witness.
460Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5OQOJQvItt
“Woahh..it’s..so beautiful..” she stared in awe for a good moment. “But wait, you’re job is to keep this thing working, right?” She looked over at him.
460Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8RxJWRkWMe
Theodore nodded, staring up at the hourglass with such admiration. “Yes, we Time Keepers make sure it’s safe from any disturbance.”
460Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIWX2SZjTK7
“Ah, okay..and when all the water and sand goes to the bottom, you turn it upside down—“
460Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIfS5jWmFpi
“NO!” He yelled in fear, and she jumped at his loud voice. He sighed, “i mean, no, we don’t EVER touch it.. one movement like that, would end time and humanity as we know it..” he looked back at it.
460Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFhpits7dIK
Liah frowned soft, “ah..i see…so wait..who would disturb it then??” She looked between him and the magical hourglass.
460Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmruOW4jpx4
“It’s coming soon, to show it’s revenge and to end everything..” he looked at her, “but we have some rules here. One is we don’t speak of it’s name, two is we don’t touch the hourglass anddddd three is..well you, Liah, will be taking my place..”
460Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡr0HMyp2jKX
“Ah okay, i see— WHAT?! Me?!” Her eyes widened for the thousandth time so far, “i’m merely human! What could i do??”
460Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIcVebcnC1d
“Used..to be human..” he said softly. “You, died in your sleep last night, but the reason of death was fate.. you are destined to be the next Time Keeper..” he looked into her eyes. “Is..is this making any sense at all?”
460Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkJkn1I8zbz
Liah sighed annoyed, “yes and no.. because i’m mad and angry at the universe right now.. it’s nearly christmas, couldn’t it wait until January? And when i’m 90???”
460Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqKzWtxeAmR
Theodore sighed, “i don’t know why the universe does this, i was only 27 when i was chosen..” he looked down. “But anyways.. i’ll do my best to help you before i have to go.”
460Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdFOTcpcOMY
“Go?! Wait, you’re just gonna leave me here?? By myself??” Liah’s eyes widened. “I can’t defend myself! I barely learned karate and i mainly go for a skillet or broom when trouble is at my doorstep..which in fact i see nothing to defend myself here..i’m at a loss.”
460Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhdBTytvVzL
Theodore hummed soft, “i mean..if you want, i could talk to the Universal Counsel and see if i can stay longer to help—“
460Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡF1LFZ545TY
“PLEASE!! I will literally do anything, i’m completely confused and terrified still and very upset at the universe right now..” he sighed and rubbed her forehead.
460Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡU8WUBsU1Vh
Theodore laughed soft, “alright alright, i’ll sweet talk them into letting me stay most of your time, and maybe i can teach you a few things here or there.” He chuckled, “so, is any of this registering in your head, like at all?” He asked softly, staring into her eyes, looking for emotion.
460Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtLV53OcdXl
Liah blinks, “i-…i still don’t understand it all..but..if this is how it’s gonna be, i guess protecting this thing is my life now?” She bit her lip, holding her arm to her chest, “will i still get to see my family? At least at Christmas?? I didn’t get to say goodbye..”
460Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0BhCiY67oy
Theodore had this saddened look, he hesitated at first, but cleared his throat. “we’ll see..but for now, let me show you around..there’s more than this old place.” He grinned soft, “so, Miss Time Keeper, are you ready to start this new journey?”
460Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwe1lXefRV2
Liah breathed in slowly, she hated this, the universe is evil if this is how she has to spend eternity.. but.. maybe there’s reasons behind this. And Theodore seems to know what he’s talking about.
460Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡk7U9TmTDi9
“Okay, Theodore, let’s begin..” she smiled soft, holding her hand out to him. “Shake on it, and swear you’ll stay and help?”
460Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIjtHb8xdwN
Theodore smirked, shaking her hand, “deal..”
