Dash In The Sky(New Version)

Chapter 13

He led me further in the cave. And I was scare to death.

Why had I followed him deeper down here? I have no idea.

My thoughts were everywhere as we went deeper and deeper.

Headquarters?...
Aliens?...
Powers?...
Carlton?...
Space?...

I walked right into Carlton. I didn't even realized he stopped.

I looked up at him. He staring right ahead. I followed his gaze.

There, behind a few boulders was a big metal door.

How it got there? I have no clue.

Engraved on it were several golden words in Greek, Egyptian and Roman. I could read the Greek words clearly in the blue light.

Wait, blue light?

I instinctively looked down and lo and behold I was glowing blue. Air stopped in my throat.

Carlton turned around.

I brought my hands closer to my face and examine my fingers like they were new. Well at the moment they were.

Blue wisps of air floated around my fingertips. I twisted my fingers and the blue increased. I then started rotating my entire hand and a little blue tornado formed over it.

"Woaw."

He chuckled.

"What's causing this?" I asked completely intrigued by this new fascination.

"Elements." He said walking off. I followed.

"Elements?"

"You know, rocks, stones, precious stones."

"No, I don't know. Which stone on earth can do that?"

"Actually its not on earth."

I stopped.

"We're still on earth, right?"

He chuckled again.

"Yes, we are. But its from another planet. Another galaxy. It was brought here by accident. It makes its kind skin glow."

Now I was dumbfounded.

"My skin is glowing."

"Precisely."

My breathing became difficult.

"Carlton?" I asked shakily.

"Yes."

"You realize what you're saying right?"

"Yep."

I did the strangest thing I thought I could do in a situation like this.

I laughed.

I didn't just laugh. I laughed until tears came to my eyes. I laughed like a mad woman. I couldn't stop. I started jumping up and down, hugging my sides.
I wholeheartedly laughed.

I fell on my knees and started rolling on the ground, hugging my sides and laughing wildly.

Few minutes later, I stopped. But I was still giggling. I looked up at Carlton who seemed very worried and concerned.

He should be. Very worried.

"You finished?" He asked.

I got on my knees giggling.

"No!"

And I went into another fit of laughing. I felt light and that all burdens were taken off me. It felt good.
I swear my head was spinning 360°.
