Soul

Chapter 8

Insanity going through me

Adrenaline going through me

Something telling me

The steps I took

As I looked down

Something made me think

I would be caught

I would be okay

The decision I made

As I jumped

Slicing through the air

In the slowest time

Unknowing of everything

As you came at racing speed

Your wings spreading

And your arm reaching

Trying to grasp

My open hands

I realized then

The one you tried to saves life

Was mine.

Chapter 8

I fell asleep somehow, even though I was in bed all day. But as I fell asleep, I felt as if something was there-, in my room, beside me.

I didn’t understand what was happening, what was going through me? What I was doing and why I was doing it? I got up from my from my bed, why? I didn’t know. It was like my body had a mind of its own. I wasn’t sure if it was a dream, or I was awake. I walked out of my bedroom, and into the hallway. I turned all of a sudden, "What the heck?" I thought. I felt adrenaline going through me suddenly. I felt a little insane. I started getting used to this, my mind sort of started to get foggy, and my worries became none. I started feeling like this was a dream. I couldn’t get hurt. I walked to the edge of the hallway. I thought I could fly. I felt my toes at the edge of the hallway. I didn’t see the stair cases that used to go all the way around the building… I thought that they were never there and they disappeared. I only saw the one in the middle. I saw this white glow surrounding it. I wanted to reach it, touch it. I was being drawn to it. I felt like something, - or someone-was waiting there for me. I made up my mind, or at least I thought I did,- I jumped.

I woke up, I had heard something. I stayed quiet for a minute, when I heard a door shut, and footsteps move around. "Who would be up at this time of night?" I wondered. I got out of my bed, and opened the door. I saw Joy; she was at the edge of the hallway. I stared for a moment, and saw the stair case that had been around the building, suddenly disappeared, the stair case in the middle started glowing. I started walking slowly towards her; she bent her knees, and jumped. My body moved at lightning speed. I reached the edge of the hallway, and spread my wings out. I dove down for her.

I felt like I was falling in slow motion. I turned and looked up. There was nothing at first except the roof of the building and the walls and all. When all of a sudden, black wings appeared. They were heading straight for me, and I saw Aiden’s face. He was now a few feet away from me. Everything was in slow motion. I looked into his green eyes; they were full of confusion and anxiety. I didn’t understand what was happening. He tried to reach my hand, and I did the same. My hand caught his, for a moment, I felt in control again, and I smiled. Relief filled his eyes, but all of a sudden my hand slipped through his. I heard him shout my name, and everything went black.
