Love Stoned

When Reality Hits

I woke up with a sliver of sunlight shining through a crack in the boarded up window. I turn to look over at Kyle and find him sleeping. I can tell he's either having a dream or is just a restless. He mumbles something sleepily, so I scoot closer to hear what he's saying.

"No don't hurt her, take me I'll use my gift okay! Just let her go," he clearly says this time.

"Ash! No, stop your killing her!" he yells. He jolts up from my bed almost pushing me off. He stares at me in disbelief probably thinking that this was the dream.

"Kyle are you okay?" I ask. He continues to stare at me for a little then grazes my hand.

"It's really me Kyle, I'm right here." He looks at me like I'm not really there.

"Please tell me that, that wasn't a vision and just dream. I don't want that happening to you," Kyle almost whimpers I swear I can almost see a tear run down his cheek. He knows about those weird visions the Caleb in my dream was talking about. Who else believed it? Did everyone else even know?

"You think they're visions too?" I whisper not wanting to believe it myself.

"Yeah... I had one about the two of us with Caleb and he had the idea."

"I had one very similar... just with a few changes."

"Okay, we need to tell the others or, at least, let them know about this idea," Kyle says as he get's off my bed. I get out of bed to head to my re-vamped closet. I pull out a black long sleeve shirt with a pair of grey jeans. I look over at Kyle who isn't even looking. He is watching the wall, what a gentleman. I slide on my clothes.

"Tell me when I can turn around please, even though your wall looks very nice," Kyle says while trying to hide his laugh.

"Yeah, you're just sooo funny. You can turn around now if you want." I head out of my room with him at my side. Everyone was probably in the kitchen scraping for food.

"You know were going to have to go out and get food soon right?" I say.

"I know. I'm just trying to use what we have now so we don't have to put any of us in danger." I understand that the last vision I had was not the best feeling and I believe it might come true if we don't change it. We finally go to the kitchen and everyone was already in there snacking on little things. I go sit down next to Caleb and Miles. Kyle stands at the end of the table like he's the boss.

"We all really need to talk. This will sound completely insane. I understand, but I think we all know it's true, and I bet every single one of you has had at least one. They started when we all found each other or after. You may have dismissed them as a vivid or lucid dream, but I know each one of us can tell the difference. We each have the ability to have visions." He finishes. No one speaks, we all have to sit in silence and try to let the reality hit.

"Okay, enough time to let you think now I'm going to ask a few questions. I know mostly when people think of visions it's of the future does anyone think they have ever seen the past?" We all sit there looking at each other. No one says anything until Miles stands and says,

"I had this what you so call vision about two planes hitting the twin towers and I remember learning about it in ancient history class I thought it was a dream until I felt the smoke choke me and could feel the pain of debris hitting me. I think that means that I can see the past...." Next to stand was the two girls first to share was.. Shelby,

"I saw the first Imperium panel meeting, which we all know was twenty years ago and also you know us Fidens don't learn much dealing with history, so I never even heard about it; but I know what it was. I did get to see it detail by detail."
