Introducing a Different World

Awakening

Dad(Belvine)--------------->

I groaned, clutching my head as i came into consciousness. My head was pounding like a thunder cloud and it took me a few moments to realize that the thunder was coming from the ragging storm outside. I opened my eyes and looked around, realizing i was back in mine and Jonah's room in the common house. I sat up, finding that i was still in my clothes from the battle and i was surely getting the bed dirty. 

"Thank God," Jonah exclaimed, smothering me in a hug. I hadn't even realized he had been there. "You've been out for a long time."

"It's only been an hour," Sara said, sitting on my bed. I hadn't even heard her some into the room. I could see that her eyes were red from crying. 

"But long enough it seems," I said, pulling her to me after Jonah let me go. The moment her head hit my shoulder i heard a tiny sob escape her throat. I was sure that me almost dying wasn't helping her get through these days. "I'm not going anywhere Sara." I made a motion for Jonah to get out. He didn't look like he was going to but i glared at him. 

"You almost died," she exclaimed, pulling back to look at me. "I don't want to lose you."

I sighed and watched her face, putting my hand to my neck where the necklace still sat, strangely enough. It was as though touching it made something come into focus with her. "Sara is there anything you want to tell me?"

She looked up at me, afraid. "I was going to tell you, i swear."

"Sara."

"I've been having dreams all this month, but weird dreams," she burst getting up and pacing the room. "I'll have the dream and then what i dreamed would come true in the next few days." She stopped and looked at me. "I saw what happened with Mom and Dad, and with you today. I don't understand what's going on." That explained why she had gotten over their death so fast, she had been preparing for weeks.

"Sara, just calm down," I said, moving the covers back so that i could get out of bed. I knew what was happening to her, but i dind't know if it was something good or bad. "Sara, you're turning into a seer."

"But those are just in the stories," she said, pulling away from my hand. 

"Sara, what in the past few days has been typical. Everything in the past few days have been out of a story," I said, shaking my head, sending my red hair flying. "I know you know, about everything."

"What's going to happen to me?" she asked, holding her head. 

"Only you can decide that," I said, pulling her down on the bed with me. "Just know that when you have these dreams, when you make sense of them, you can come to me, Jonah, William or Lucy and we'll help you. You won't be alone."

"Who was trying to kill you tonight?" she asked, looking at me with tear rimmed eyes. "She was red haired, like you, but her eyes were dark, like black holes."

"Where you there?" I asked, surprised that William, or even Jonah, would allow her to come with. 

"I followed Lucy," she admitted, looking at me with her puppy dog eyes. "She went close to the fighting, but i went further. I saw what you could do, Mor."

"Sara," I began, but i didn't know how to finish. How was i to tell her that my own mother was trying to kill me. "She's a woman i used to know." I saw her eyes suddenly droop, like her tiredness hit her. "Go and get some sleep, little one."

"Mor, don't leave me," she whispered before she got up and walked towards her own room.

I sighed and pushed myself up from the bed. The moment i was upright, blood rushed to my legs and i fell. I yelped and Jonah was by my side in an instant.
