I then heard a big sound outside, we both did, one that made us shiver. It frightened102Please respect copyright.PENANA50OPN2Ju63
me deeply and as much as I wished it to be just the one scare, it was not to be.102Please respect copyright.PENANAoqJrYr7V1i
“It has begun.” He confessed rather calmly as if he was already expecting it.102Please respect copyright.PENANAlpvxYggEbg
Many more terrible sounds soon followed, screams and other noises of terror just102Please respect copyright.PENANAa3R1RwO36D
outside that room, and as my eyes began rummaging in a most panicky manner, he102Please respect copyright.PENANAxtr3nh45w1
placed his hands on my cheeks and stared right at me: “It’s alright.” He reassured me102Please respect copyright.PENANAdhWeFhdKeS
“This is intended, you understand? It is according to the plan.” He was staring at me102Please respect copyright.PENANASMto3nmMJC
with deep concern, but there was no lie in his words.102Please respect copyright.PENANAGhoWkYWGsQ
“What is happening?” I reluctantly asked, “What is this place?” I felt like I was102Please respect copyright.PENANAliEW8FwrSZ
finally able to understand myself for the most part, or at least most of my spoken102Please respect copyright.PENANA9ikUs6oWOP
words were now sounding just like my thoughts before I voiced them. “Please?”102Please respect copyright.PENANA2VXFKfLOyU
I insisted ...102Please respect copyright.PENANAEHz2Pg0pgP
“We don’t have much time for this,” Those hoarse words pushed through between102Please respect copyright.PENANABgHQj59C0N
nervous breaths, and it seemed I could now understand them without too much102Please respect copyright.PENANAshyISABsTL
impediment “but you have just been awakened ... or born, if you will.”102Please respect copyright.PENANA9cOb9GcMOf
“I don’t understand,” I begged for more as he turned his back to me to begin those102Please respect copyright.PENANAtc1bmNA1JE
rushed preparations, and when I was about to insist, he spoke to me some more.102Please respect copyright.PENANAXrrUpqkmrg
“You were born into this world - born, the word born, you already know the102Please respect copyright.PENANAaLbciuWdKy
meaning?”102Please respect copyright.PENANARvYIDkPRDW
“Yes ...”102Please respect copyright.PENANAm13UTJ9nYe
“Yes, of course, you do.” He responded with a smile before continuing, “Either way,102Please respect copyright.PENANAKic7w5txIa
you were born into it or perhaps brought here from another; not even I know for sure102Please respect copyright.PENANAMEvAio4qmp
which one applies more correctly. Not even after so many... Anyway, I know you are to102Please respect copyright.PENANAr5g5wKE4uf
be charged with bearing most of this world’s responsibility.”102Please respect copyright.PENANAguGNkt24El
“Charged?” I asked.102Please respect copyright.PENANAvoJTdrB4X2
“Yes charged, and by none other than yourself. But first, we need to get you out of102Please respect copyright.PENANAYeM0dmbc9r
here. We must deliver you somewhere safe.” He stopped to look straight at me “I know102Please respect copyright.PENANA7EW2zxTCba
you have so many questions, but it is imperative that you save them for later.”102Please respect copyright.PENANAwTAmdXQpJY
“You must put your trust in me, you understand? You must trust me and be patient.102Please respect copyright.PENANAS3Ha0bNumh
Time itself will tell you all that you might want to know right now and then some. Just102Please respect copyright.PENANAsYfZLhNGt6
wait.” He turned again to resume those rushed preparations; “I take it that it will not102Please respect copyright.PENANAqqXS5ztYO6
be long before I am the one turning to you for some answers. For now, just be patient102Please respect copyright.PENANAwCca51aSb8
and do what I ask of you.”102Please respect copyright.PENANAqxWCfZZHTi
“What am I? How can I have learned this much already, and so fast?” I stopped for102Please respect copyright.PENANAUwqVywgzHY
a moment, and then looked him in the eye: “And how can I know that is not normal?”102Please respect copyright.PENANACW6vgYFGJt
“Not a what, but a who.” He replied while turning away from me but still, likely102Please respect copyright.PENANAk2kPPN8fJY
against his wishes, I felt that those words were brought forth in a somewhat vague and102Please respect copyright.PENANAOe6OzM2F2W
unassertive manner.102Please respect copyright.PENANAGFcMiztg88
“Who then...” I could not help but be distracted by all that was raging on just outside102Please respect copyright.PENANAcgGmCBNjzQ
that room; the several noises rampaging all around, those constant screams escorted102Please respect copyright.PENANAObAmDUWiKk
now by other gruesome sounds of violence. I tightly shut my eyes for a moment, in102Please respect copyright.PENANATRYp64oDbq
the hopes that somehow it would all go away, and then looked at him again. I found102Please respect copyright.PENANAG7Jy2qugot
comfort in that even if he himself seemed desperate to finish gathering all sorts of102Please respect copyright.PENANAfFkfr2PeNg
things from those silvered tables, he too seemed afraid. “Who then?” I was so hoping102Please respect copyright.PENANAvpIhWKSAwU
he would cave, if just for a moment, but no such luck.102Please respect copyright.PENANABHxXCJbBSW
So, I just sat there, completely free from any physical bonds but with my feelings102Please respect copyright.PENANAA4d3z2ue9y
still tying me to that bed. I remained still, watching him pack those last things with102Please respect copyright.PENANAteTOu5fZLU
great haste: all sorts of papers and the tools to inscribe on them, some food, and a few102Please respect copyright.PENANAdPKEWGntYo
other utensils too that I could not yet recognize.102Please respect copyright.PENANAw1IqJb73T5
I felt so inclined to ask him again, but before I managed to assemble the required102Please respect copyright.PENANAblTVOFUpxG
words, I got hit in the head, something fierce!102Please respect copyright.PENANANbgrir9k5D
A presentiment, a quick vision of a clap of thunder cutting through heavy rain and,102Please respect copyright.PENANAU8nmmlVG7R
amidst it all, some sort of airship struggling through it. Could that have been just a102Please respect copyright.PENANAhPbEXKlGc7
random trick of my imagination or the thunderclap of catastrophe? What was that?102Please respect copyright.PENANABvzcT2LVGN
It felt so...102Please respect copyright.PENANAYQhGvKG89z
A premonition perhaps, or a distorted perception of my unknown present?102Please respect copyright.PENANAksKeBfUo3a
Surprised I looked at him only for my doubts to be met with a wry grin.
