Bringing her daze into a new unfamiliar scenery. Jessica was left standing in a pitch black cave, but she wasn't alone. Someone was standing to the other side of a solid platinum baptism fountain, it was an old man with perching blue eyes dressed in a all white robe. He pulled his hood down showing his face " welcome my child" his soft words linger. Jessica Starts nipping her skin, " this can't be happing,...I must be dreaming". Stepping forward she says " this is not real". The old man lifts a gold chalice " my child this is real, and your not dreaming" Jessica feels the pain from her nips being so hard that's causing a slight amount of bleeding to appear thinking " how did he know I was thinking it was a dream"

" we're am I?, who are you?, why am I hear?" , these question sprint out of her mouth without breathing in air. " it's always the same questions" the old man chuckles, " I'm an elder and let's just say I'm your great grandfather, you are in the year 3000BC in the cave were time travel was born my child". Dipping the chalice into the fountain to gather the spring water inside he then says " you were brought here like every great one before you and every great one after you, to help you find yourself". Jessica steps closer in silence before hearing "you have been giving a gift, and you will have to master on how you use it, let's take a drink it's our custom to drink from these waters, it will bless you". Handing the chalice over, Jessica takes a sip. It feels like the earths energy flowing through her body, her mind becoming clearer, the thoughts in her mind organising themselves. " we don't have much time my child, but we will meet again"

Placing the chalice onto the fountain her wrist starts to glow, the old man says " we haven't got much time, anytime you see that, it means your going to jump, good luck my child" . Jessica goes into a panic " wait I have lots of questions, I'm not ready to leave"

The light glows brighter as she just finished spitting out the last word before she time jumps. Being brought back into her living room looking down onto the shattered glass once more,she falls to her knees " what is happening to me?"

For what felt like hours that passed as Jessica just sat there holding her knees in a trance until her door bell rings. " who could that be" Jessica says breaking out from her day like dream. Opening her door she finds her mother  with her arms open wide " come here my baby" her mother says with her warm motherly tone. Gripping on to her tight Jessica says " I don't know what's happening to me, I think I'm going crazy". Helen her mother pushed her lightly off to look in her eyes " why don't you go and stick on the kettle, and I'll explain something's to you "

Jessica goes into her kitchen and fills the kettle
