The Dimensional Escape

Chapter 3

Hello! Sandra back. I'm giving nonexistent people another update. Woot! This will be a short one. Sorry, but I'm trying to make a long chapter. Probably, the latter chapters will be.

I know that even with my big and unrequited efforts , a person still reads out there. :) I'm being optimistic here! Now, Sandra, no more tears. 

I am here to remind you that if you had the same name/birthday/initials/zodiac signs/face/descriptions/gadgets/powers/abilities with my characters, it's purely coincidence. Now, no sueing, OK? Or else I'm going to shove you to my pool of bills. I'm kidding. But seriously, do not sue me.

I hope my daily updates earn me readers. I desperately need someone to talk to. :'( Omega is the paradise beside. XD Too tired to draw, anyway, I don't have the talent for it.

On with the STORY!

Chapter 3: Omega

The single crack continued to move upward as it snaked to crack the other parts. Small white flowers came out of the crack as soon as it was made. The broken cocoon started to become brighter than it was.

Anthony felt a wave of assurance when he saw the flowers. Something inside of him told him that he shouldn’t step back. He should always stand beside it.

Cracks were all over the diamond. The light that it gave away turned off. The whiteness of the place began to wither and turned dark. Anthony looked everywhere. It looked like he was in his own nightmare.

As worry surfaced in Anthony, the light shone up very bright and blew a wave of wind. As the air current blew on his cheeks – and to his entire body, the shards of the diamond flew dramatically across the emptiness. A sudden flash of light almost blinded the scientist. He covered his eyes with his left arm, peeking time-to-time.

A girl in white came out of the diamond cocoon. She had angel wings, light blue ribbons snaked around the girl’s right arms while light pink ones snaked around her left, her dress was purely white with ruffles everywhere and made the girl look like a princess, and her beige-white hair curled behind her. Her skin was so white, making her appearance a bit more blinding than usual. It took Anthony a while to notice that the girl had white ixoras all around her. The flowers adorned her ever silky hair.

The girl opened her eyes. Her orbs were bright green at the first, and then it changed to sparkling blue, then captivating violet, then alluring black, then flashy yellow. It wasn’t her eyes that amazed Anthony, it was the girl herself. She transfigured from the white goddess into Sophia and vice-versa.

Sophia snapped her fingers. The white abyss became a real paradise – crystal-like waterfalls, bountiful lake with colourful Japanese carps, rainbow on the sky, fluffy clouds, serene skies, verdant and flower-coated fields on the lowlands, the breeze was cool, and everything was God-blest. It was something not found in Aeonius, a rare one for an Aeonian.

Anthony didn’t bother to ask what was around him. He read them on books. He already knew that the paradise was like a figment of Earth, but his amazement was still purely genuine at the sight of it in reality, unlike his e-books’ screen.

Sophia stood up and walked on the lake. She left lotus flowers on every step she took on the lake. Anthony merely stared in awe. Sophia sat down on the lake as if it was solid; flowers bloomed underneath her as she sat down and took a rest.

“I spent every year of my life here,” spoke Sophia as she soaked her hand on the pond, garnering the carps’ attention. The carps, in return, crowded to get near her hand. She smiled and turned to the awe-struck boy. “Never seen this before?”

“I have,” he automatically answered while dancing his attention to all the beautiful creations. He was touching, smelling, and even tasted some of the flowers. For him, it was a chance, a very big and one-time chance to see the flowers and everything there personally. “…but I’ve seen these on e-books. Biology is considered a subject in Comatose in Aeonius. Body Anatomy is everything left for Biology in there.”

Sophia looked at him sharply. She darted toward Anthony and held him by his shoulders.

“There’s no more trees? There’s no more animals?” frantically asked she. “Water, is it still clean? How do you breathe there?”

“Uhh,” stuttered Anthony, “I don’t have an idea about what you’re saying, but all I know Aeonius depends on technology.” Of course Anthony knew about animals. His extensive research about Earth and Humans led him there. Anthony knew rabbits, dogs, and cats; he even tried reviving their species, but utterly failed. He knew about trees – it’s all over him at that moment – and he could’ve died long ago if the water wasn’t treated properly. Oxygen was provided by air-conditioners all around Aeonius.

“Poor man,” stated Sophia as she loosened her hold on Anthony’s shoulders. She sauntered toward the edge of the lake. Little faeries came over to her ear. Sophia turned to Anthony immediately after being reminded by the faeries. “Now I remember, welcome to Omega!”

Omega was the name of the dimension they were in. It was the centre of good and positive energies. It is a place where everything gets restored and saved from destruction. There were a lot dimensions like Omega. Some were named Alpha, Beta, Gamma, Delta, and Theta, those of which were named after the Greek Alphabet. Other dimensions like Theta and Delta reflect the characteristics of certain planets in different galaxies. Some like Gamma and Omega were hard to infiltrate due to strict standards in energy levels and also the proximity of the dimensions were close to one another, which often leads to incorrect dimensions. If in Algebra, they had x and y axis – and so with Chemistry’s x, y, and z axis – dimensions all around the universe had a, b, c, x, y, and z axis.

Only few brilliant people were able to discover the secrets of the multi-dimensional universe. Omega’s coordinates would be a very long one:

189.009, 299.0037, 177.0909, 202.221, 3829.2, 29281.

Just by looking at the numbers, you’d say it’s really complicated. The decimal places really matter, or else you’d land on the wrong dimension. Despite the complicated address on the heximal chart – tantamount of Algebra’s linear chart – Omega is right behind you, but no one notices it.

Anthony, a lazy but smart scientist, was indeed a lucky Aeonian bastard who was able to see and go to another dimension.
