I was looking through my telescope staring at the moon looking at it gleaming in the sky. As I stare at the craters and the details a bright light blinds me and the next thing you know I'm laying in the grass and everything goes black as my eyes shut.

I wake up and my mind is blank as I feel around me touching the cool blades of grass on my fingertips. I open my eyes scared at what is in front of me, but there is nothing just the moon shining in the sky. What am I doing here? Where am I? more importantly Who am I?

My head starts to hurt as I sit up as I take in a sharp breath which hurts as my lungs fill I look around me and nothing feeling familiar. I groan as I feel my body ache as I move and I then notice my body is somewhat glowing. There is a white subtle glow radiating off my skin as I look at it and it confuses me even more. My head is pounding and I feel a sharp pain in my head then I start to see flashes of men in suits, a girl with red hair using red magic, a handsome rugged-looking man with a metal arm staring at me fondly. My eyes shoot open after that intense second and I immediately know what I need to do. I needed to find them and figure out who I am because it seemed like where I needed to be and they might know who I am.

I get up quickly and look around the area I woke up in and see a telescope and a brown leather bag propped up next to it. I turn to look down the path by this cliff and next to the spot is a small silver car shining in the dark which I'm assuming is mine since it's by where I woke up plus there seems to be nobody else around. I wonder who I was to even come out here in the middle of nowhere especially alone at night, must be pretty naive. I walk over to the leather bag and open it to see a charger, a phone which was dead, a camera, and some lenses but no sign of any identification even a taser. Of course, there'd be nothing here to tell me who I am I guess whoever I am didn't need it. I see a pair of keys with a little black cat keychain on it which is obviously my way out here so I grabbed the bag and slung it around my shoulder with the keys in hand. I look back at the telescope and decide to grab it too and I use the keys to open the trunk and put the bag and scope in the back. I close the trunk and move over to the driver's side and hop in looking at my arms again the white glow still gleaming off my pale skin in the dark.

"What is wrong with me?" I whisper to myself as I put the keys in the ignition then I realize. Do I even know how to drive?

I look at the long and may I add dark road ahead of me in terror because I have no idea how to drive a car let alone in these mountains I'm in, but I guess it can't be that hard to figure out. I grab the leather wheel and grip it hoping that I can pull through this. I take a deep breath and press the pedals and nothing happens. Is it broken down? Well, it obviously started so it can't be not working right. I bang my fists on the wheel in frustration as the boom echoed through the car and white magic spread all across the car moving the stick thing in the middle and basically driving itself. My eyes widen in shock as I am casually cruising in this car without doing a single thing or even moving. As we reach a turn it easily turns on its own and along a road covered in evergreen trees and woodlands. I breathe a sigh of relief as I finally feel safe as I sit in these black leather seats. I'm so tired and all I want to do is know who these people are in my visions if you could call them that and find out who they are because they seem a lot like me. Weird.


I quickly realize that I dozed off while this car has been magically driving me somewhere. Fear struck me as I woke up in the parking lot of a gas station in the middle of a small-looking town. I quickly get out noticing that it was obviously nighttime and there were only one or two cars here including some truckers stopping for the night in the bigger parking lot in the back. I work up the courage to get out of the car glancing at myself in the small rearview mirror seeing my black hair with two white streaks in the front which my gut or something was telling me that was new. I need to find out what happened to me, how I got these powers or whatever is going on and those people might be the only way I could get a real answer.
