I; Labyrinth

12; Room Z09

Adrian

Back in Room D12, I decided to venture forwards, my gift beaming and illuminating the various passages I would wander...into.

Again, I had never been alone. The 'creatures' within Room D12-the room of memories-scuttled off into the darkness away from my lights. But I had just exited another Room; Z09. The room of dreams. Seeing someone explode was more like a nightmare than a dream, yet there was also a room for nightmares. I supposed it was all subjective. Perhaps Xara hadn't felt frightened enough during REM sleep in order to call it a nightmare? 

Personally, I had felt rather uneasy whilst witnessing such an abstract scene...(I really should stop using the word 'abstract', perhaps 'hypothetical' could do?). Yet, reader, you wouldn't know how I truly speak.

As I mentioned previously, my inner powers are strengthened once my conscious is removed from my body. Maybe this is due to the fact that mind and body aren't always properly connected for some reason? I stutter when I talk to people, make grammatical mistakes and switch tenses. One day, you'll be a witness to that, too. 

However, what was Room Z09? Why had scientists called it that? Although I am not entirely sure, I do believe it is because of many reasons. There are thousands of machinations within the human mind...(actually, 'thousands' isn't the correct term to stand for such enormities), but the general rule in today's psychology is that there are 12/13 'rooms' for every letter in the alphabet. Of course, there are many more...not all of them have been discovered yet. I wonder what Room Z13 could be...or YX0. The most important one, however, is Room 026. It is located centrally, within each human mind, and holds the genuine 'heart' of the soul within a mind. Or is it a mind within a soul? I suppose that, until I die, I'll never really know.

 As I thought to myself, I realized I had no idea where it was that I was headed to. So I began to think...

Imagine that? Two minds thinking together in unison yet completely separate? 

 Amazing, come to think of it. Science has evolved so much over the last few centuries, but so have humans.

 Compared to the homo sapiens of the 21st to the 24th centuries, humans on Earth-not on Chione-have slightly larger eyes at this point. On the other hand, Chione's present humans' eyes have evolved to become bluer in order to protect themselves from the rays of the galaxy. 

 Evolution is an art, my friend, but also a demon; use her the way you should, she'll protect you; go against her wishes, she'll make you pay. 

 Moving onward, I realize that I am existent, even though still currently abstract. I have been drawn from my own body, like water from a well-it doesn't exist any longer-like a crab from its shell. Furthermore, such a creature ceases to exist at this time.

 Now I am, well, what I am and I presume to be.

With my eyes darting from left to right and with fear beginning to fill my head, I suddenly pick up electrifying speed. Thoughts become flowers fluttering in the wind but dying slowly. Flowers in the sand. They grow on the sea waves. And these waves continue to crawl upon the sand..sinking, screaming, gushing out for help. 

The speed expands, then suddenly ceases to...exist. Where was I now? How am I even to know which room I'm in?

Jack and I both knew about D12, we also knew how to get to 026...but how do I know that the previous room was Room Z09, the room of dreams?

Now, I was going to enter Room YX0-Xara's state of awareness, that is, or consciousness. 

I suppose my inner power, which is more powerful and more visible when I'm drawn from my own body,  had given me that indication, despite my not being a psychic. 

The fear suddenly begins to subside. I manage to step forward and reach an amazing blue light.

This was Xara's state of awareness? Of the colour ocean blue? How so? I ask myself. According to chromatic psychology (the psychology of colours), blue calls to mind feelings of calmness and serenity. 

I try and mark this down in my mind.

"Xara's state of awareness equals state of tranquillity," I note to myself.

Leaving the  dark and perhaps my mind behind me, I decide to venture into the deep blue sea that is Xara's consciousness.

Happiness

'My dear, this is your life in your hands! 

Use your powers, your love and the four elements.

Searching and searching, freezing and freezing, walking and walking, you finally see a light. Your colours have found it.

And I am not that far now.

Xara is at peace with herself. She is being helped by two special people. Her mind is at peace, no matter what has happened!

Feel the waves of the sea brush against your skin, a gentle rinse of water washing away your grime and crime. 

Oh! This is glorious. I cannot see an end to this fantastic feeling.

Yet I am that feeling-Happiness personified, and here you stand, asking what is happening. 

My friend, there is nothing to fear. Adrian is on his way to the center of Xara's mind and when he reaches it, there will be absolutely nothing to be afraid of. Not even Jas-"
