Chapter 3: A Dream? Or a Memory?

*At Home*

I quietly close my bedroom door after successfully sneaking back into my house. I change into some pajamas while replaying tonight's events.

Diana: How did he know my name? And why did he call me Nezera? I've never heard that before.

I try to recall what I was feeling when ever I saw or was close to Don.

Diana: Maybe I do know him, he definitely knows me that's for sure... He did look familiar when I first saw him.. He looks around my age, but I still can't think of anyone I've ever met that I could distinctly recognize as him... I mean at least it's not a creepy old guy following me around.. Ugh I don't know all of this makes my head hurt.

I finally crawl into my bed and get comfy under the covers. I roll over to look at the clock on my side table to check the time.

Diana: It's already two?.. I just need to go to sleep.

I roll back over and close my eyes, my body relaxes and I slowly drift to sleep. My mind recalls everything from today still trying to make sense of it but is then focused on more random thoughts of school and things I saw on my phone. But then my mind becomes bright like someone is shining a light in my face. I open my eyes to see who has walked in and turned my light on, but when my eyes adjust to the bright light I find myself in a blank white room with a strangely peaceful melody plays in the distance.

Voice: Abaddon..

I jump when the booming voice speaks, his words echo through out the large empty room. Seconds later I hear someone walking towards the voice, a tall boy with black hair and...black eyes! The guy from earlier that's him! But..he's different..somehow..

Abaddon: Yes Creator..

Creator? What? I try to speak out but it's clear they can't hear me and that I'm only a spectator.

Voice: My son's visit will be ending sooner than expected... Please be ready with the gate key when he's enters the void.

Abaddon: But he hasn't finished teaching the people of your word, they still have much to learn. Why is he returning?

Voice: As soon as the first void closes, close the gate..

Abaddon: But Creator if the gate closes as soon as he enters the void he won't be able to travel back here.

Voice: Close the gate as I have told you to..

Abaddon: What are you trying to do? Your son is supposed to stay on earth for another three years, if he comes home the people won't know right from wrong!

Voice: Do as I have told you or I will have someone else do it!

The booming voice shakes the room.

Abaddon: Finally..the truth comes out.. I can't believe you're doing this! Just because your son has seen through your plans and is trying to warn YOUR people of your wrong doings does not mean you can destroy him!

Voice: Nezera!

Nezera? That's what Don called me? A tall girl with long black hair and sky blue eyes walks in to the room. She stands farther behind Abaddon with a calm expression on her face.

Voice: Close the gate as soon as my son enters the void.

Nezera: Yes.. Creator..

Voice: Now Abaddon why must you fight with me when you could just do as I ask like the rest of my angels?

Abaddon: Because I know the truth! You made me before anyone else, the perfect creation...perfect enough to see your true desires, and when you figured that out you made sure your other creations would never see the disgusting truth of your "Devine Plan" for the world!
