A Flame In Time

Chapter 3: The Chosen One

I stumble violently and fall out of the bed, "Who are you?"

"Do not worry, I am your friend. My name is Neco."

The name is so familliar...

"Do I know you?"

"Yes," trying to recall to myself.

"You are the guy that ate that guard!!"

"No... absorbed his soul, there is a difference..."

I stare into his blank expression, what do you want from me? what do I want from myself?

Dumbfounded, I ask him, "H-how am I alive?,"

"You are special."

"How?"

"I can sense it."

How?

"Are you a warlock?"

He grunts,"Sure, you could say that..."

I gather myself together and stand up.

"Well I know I am more important than YOU!" An angry female voice yells.

"JUST BECAUSE YOU CONTROL THE SUN DOESN'T MEAN SH-" 

"Ladies calm down"

"WELL LUNA IS SAYING I'M LESS IMPORTANT THAN HER!"   

"WELL I CONTROLL THE TID- Oh! Caiaid is uh finally awake..." she leans in close to whisper in my ear, "Sorry about that, my sisters and I tend to get into fights... Alot."

She smells like an ocean breeze.

"You must have known why, why you are here now... you serve a purpose in this realm." An unfamilliar voice penatrates your mind. "Vengance is what you are looking for. Vengance for your beloved mother, and your mighty friends. But you don't know why you are here,  why you are here now, your purpose..."

"You, you are nothing, nobody, empty."

Neco stands with shock and surprise next to the strikingly beautiful sisters, they also have the expression of surprise and shock worn on their faces.

"You heard everything didn't you?" I asked with a sense of confusion.

Neco responds, "Y-you are really the chosen one.Uh hold on, I need to show you something." 

He shuffles out of the room of the small wooden house, and comes back to help me up. Then, I realized, this house is not small, but bigger than anything he had seen. (That was not a prison)

"What are you going to show m-"

"Hold on until we get there." Neco cuts me off. "We are finally here!"

It was an empty room, with only one sword sealed in glass. Neco walks towards it, covers his hands and takes out the sword saying, "This is the sword for the chosen one, you are the chosen one Caiaid, which grants you the ability your father had, you can travel through time."

I stumbled forward, "M-my father?"

He responds in a light tone, ignoring me, "Grab the sword and feel the power that was destined for you."

I walk forward, the burning mark on my hand glowing, glowing as bright as the sun as I reached out. I grasp the sword, feeling it bond to me, then I black out, going into another coma.
