I look around. I was definitely on some clouds. I couldn't see below them though. I gotta be in a dream. Maybe I just fell asleep. I shrug and look at the doors. There was a box beside the door with a sword that looks just like the sword I'm holding. Somehow i decide to place my necklace by the sword by the doors. There was a big "Shingg" noise and the doors started opening. I back up. Woah. I take a deep breath. This is all a dream. I look at my necklace and wear it around my neck. A bright light shines through the now opened double doors. I walk in. I was in a room. A huge room. I look around. Golden pillars stretch the sides of the room. Under me are golden tiles. The ceiling had some fancy artwork. I look up and examine them. The floating islands. The ones I drew are up there. A queen and King by the castle looking up at the islands. It all looked so familiar. This has to be a dream right?
"Bella!! Oh my you've grown up." Someone says I turn around. A lady in a golden flowy gown was running towards me. She was crying. I look closely and she was the most beautiful person i had seen. This has to be a dream. The lady's brown gold hair flows like her dress. She gives me a huge hug. Somehow I feel warmth and a bit of nostalgia. Her dress has golden leaves on it and she wore an opal crested head chain. I push her away. This was weird. I could feel her touch in a dream? Impossible.
"Who are you?" I say.
"Cathleen. Remember, she does not know who we are. Doing that made her more uncomfortable." A mans voice appeared. He stood right next to the lady. He had on a golden suit and loosed handsome. Ive never seen such beautiful people. This is a dream though so I shrug.
"This is a dream." I say. "I'm not uncomfortable."
They look at each other. Their face falling. Then they look at me.
"I guess her human mother did not tell her." The lady who calls herself Cathleen says. "George what are we gonna do?"
"I thought she would tell Bella on her 16th birthday."
"My mom does not care about me." I say. I shrug and look away. A hand appears on my cheek. It felt so warm to the point that i wanted to cry.
"I see." Cathleen says looking at me with sad eyes. I could feel her. I back away.
"This is a dream." I laugh. "Right?" I laugh again. Tears feel. "But why do i feel such nostalgia?" I fall onto the ground. Two hands appeared and touched my own. They got me up.
"Follow me." George says. Cathleen keeps her hand on mine and we follow George. We head towards a wall. I look around. A wall. Why are we going to a wall. I then realized this huge room has no doors. Before I can protest, a huge hole suddenly appears on the wall and we go right through it. I laugh. A dream. This is a dream. No way that just happened. We enter a room with velvet couches and flower pots. The walls were still golden. I look up. Another painting. This was a sword. My opal sword. I look at the sword around my neck and then look up. They ask me to sit down. They sit across from me. Its like I'm in some interview. I had so many questions.
"Where am I? Who are you? Why do you know my name? Who is "A"? Why are things that i draw on the ceiling? Why do i feel like crying? What is this nostalgia? Is this a dream? Who am i?" I blurt out.
"Since her human mother didn't, we will just have to tell her." George says. Cathleen sighs.
"Its your 16th birthday. Happy Birthday Bella." Cathleen says. I look at her in confusion. "We," She looks at George. "George and I wanted to bring you home on this day." I tilt my head in more confusion.
"Home?" I say. "Here? What is here even?" I say.
"This is Arcana, the world of the gods. The "A" stands for Arcana." George says.
"Humans call it Heaven." Cathleen adds. I look at both of them and crack up.
"Huh? You gotta be kidding me. God? Arcana? What kind of nonsense is this." I pinch myself. "Wake up." They look at each other.
"This is your home. You were born here." George says.
"We are your parents." Cathleen blurts out. Huh? HUH? I couldn't keep from busting out. I was laughing so hard my stomach hurt.
"This dream is ridiculous." I say holding my stomach. But then I stopped. Is this true though? I feel so nostalgic like I've been here. Those drawings. I had dreams of this place. It was my memory?
They both get up and stand in front of me.
"Your human mother never told you that you were adopted?" George says. It was like he was keeping that sentence in him for a while. I look at them. I am so shocked. "Ever wonder why you and your sister don't look alike? You're sister probably knows that your were adopted." Cathleen says looking down at me.
"I knew that family was not a good one to place her with." George says to Cathleen. I was to shocked. I'm adopted?They make me follow them to a balcony. Outside was a huge landscape with many villages. Above were tons of floating islands. They all looked different.
"Don't you feel like you remember this. This is Arcana. You were born in this castle. We sent you to Earth shortly after with a mission." I continue looking at the land. It did not feel like this was some stupid dream. It felt like i knew this place.
'Then are you guys gods?" I ask.
"Were not 'guys', were your parents. And yes. Your father is the god of time and I am the god of nature. We rule over the other gods, deities, angels and Zodiacs." Cathleen says. I really wanted to laugh but somehow I couldn't.
I look at them. "And what am I?"
"You're a god too. For 4 billion years, Arcana was ruled my me and your father. Everyone knew that a child born from both of us would be the eternal god, the god of emotion, god of all god's, the one with the world. We refused to have a baby since the earth was peaceful. But people became greedy and sinful. Their lust and selfishness tinted the world. We decided then that you should be born to go down and experience it yourself." Cathleen says.
Cathleen holds both of my hands. "It mush have been hard. It like we all guessed, the life down there is brutal. You have that button. You can eradicate the whole world and start anew. You have that choice. Only the eternal god has that choice."
I didn't feel like laughing. But i still was doubtful. I never once believed in god. God never existed in my life. I used to pray that things would get better but it got worse and i was angry at myself and the one I was praying at. But the irony is shown right in front of me. God exists? I am god?
"All of us on this world control everything on earth. But, we cant fully destroy the sins. Only the eternal god can." George says. I laugh. So the god I was praying to to extinguish my sadness was actually myself? They look at each other. Somehow this whole story was to grand to be believable but it all felt so real.
"Let me show you how much power you have." Cathleen holds my hand up. She demonstrates her own powers. The vines on the balcony grew and many flowers sprouted. Then a fire engulfs the vines and they turn into ashes. Small drops of water splashes on the piles of ash and a new plant grows. Cathleen then takes my hands and says, "Think of what just happened there." And so I do. And the same thing happens. "You see, whatever you think, happens. If you want rain, it will rain. If you want a vase to break, it will break. You powers just started developing when you stepped in Arcana right on your 16th birthday." I was shocked. I have this power.
"I'm sorry. This is too much to take in." I say. Taking a seat in the room. They sit next to me. I go over what i just heard. I was born in Arcana, i am the eternal god. I am sent with a mission. The fate of the world is in my hands.
"How is earth and the human race?" George says. I look at my father.
"I hate it." I said. Everyone is fake, selfish and mean.
"You can always decide your answer now or later." My mother says. They both get up.
"Till we see you again. Press that opal if you want to visit." They both said. The room started glowing and they started disappearing along with the room. I blink and I was laying on my bed staring at the ceiling. It was light outside. It was Saturday.
