The sky was a clear beautiful blue, the grass was tall green and seemed to stretch on forever. I felt so warm while feeling this strange happiness in my heart. In the distance I could see the most beautiful tree on the peak of a hill.

 I don't know why but I made it in a sprint towards the tree, my eyes fixed on the tree as I ran. I kept running and running never becoming out of breath, getting closer and closer to the foot of the hill. As I ran I began to feel a bit colder and the warmth of happiness faded little by little with every step I took. I didn't take notice at the time, instead I kept on running my eyes never leaving the trees beauty. A light breeze spiraled around me, propelling me forward.

I was now at the foot of the hill, then I was halfway up the hill, still running and running. As I got closer to the tree, I realized there was something important I needed to do? I was now right there at the foot of the tree when I fell on my hands and knees. I slowly noticed I was freezing cold and my body was shaking; but nevertheless I crawled and sat with my back on the tree.

 I finally looked to myself, my body. I was shocked, what has made me this way? My hands where made of metal, then I noticed my legs were too; My body was no longer warm. Then from deep within me despair began taking hold. I now saw my body made of cold metal. The pain came from my very soul, I was drowning in it. Horrific torture was all that I could feel anymore so much so that it made me wish I was dead. I trembled violently as I was encased in agony making no sound as to not bother anyone else.

The Tree stood above me as beautiful as ever as did the sky and endless plains.
