The Wind

Day 1: The light flickers

I am afraid. That's how I begin this story, in fear. I feel that intense knot of fear and anxiety in my stomach that seems to be tied as if someone just wanted to make it tight and stay,  not meant to be untied. I sat up in bed to the darkness. I sat without thinking much for a while, just waiting. I had woken myself up from a nightmare. This one wasn't like the others, in fact.. I am not sure weather or not to call a nightmare or a stressful dream. It wasn't aweful. Yet it scared me a little and swarmed me with anxiety. I finally decided after sitting in bed for almost 10 minutes with the light now on, to go to the bathroom and get a little walk in. I entered the hallway in darkness being as quiet and cautious as I could be. However, I did bump into a few things on the way there. I only went in the bathroom to sit in somewhere that wasn't my room for a while. The nightmare, or dream, it was a lot to think about. I would forget about it as well as possible till tommorow. Obviously when you have a nightmare, you want to forget about it. This was different though. Very strange and certain feelings were actually good, then there were the bad parts. The air felt cool and refreshing and it reminded me of my dream. Not the air from the room of course but the window that I thought was closed just a minute ago! I crept up to the window and gazed out to the dark feild. All my animals were asleep. Everyone but me was sound asleep. "Ahh" I screamed and jumped back. The screen flew toward me and hit the wall. A gust of wind wistled through me and all around me. All I could see was wind. I began to feel myself be lifted into the air higher and higher till I felt, though I could not see, that I had to be above the trees where was the roof? I had to have hit it long ago. Then I looked down and saw the feild and kennel and I could see the neighbors house. My slippers fell off my feet and hit the neighbors roof then slid down to the ground. I looked up too late to see my face colide with a tree!! There was a crashing sound like that of waves hitting to shore and a salty smell was in the air. Where am I? I thought. I opened my eyes to see a blue sky with fluffy white clouds. A single bird flew in the sky and it beauty was amazing. I tried to stand, only to sit back down. My leg had been hashed deep by something. "Huh?" I thought. Then I remebered the collision. I thought I had been above the trees, it must have been a very very tall tree. I looked around to see a beach with glistening emerald greenish blue water and white powdery sand. How did this all happen I thought. I got up again, this time more carefully on my leg with the wound, and walked over to the ocean. I saw my reflection and I wasn't there! Someone that looked like me, but much older, grubbier and wearing different clothes was in my place. "Wait, is that..me??" I asked myself, trembling. Suddenly a caw sound darted through the air. I looked up abruptly, to see the same bird, coming down. Coming toward me. He became closer and closer with every second. Then I heard a different sound. A whirring and singing of angels, then I felt like I swept into nothing. I was falling I was losing all my sences, but I knew I was falling. Then I felt myself jump. I was awake I opened my eyes to see my ceiling. I was in bed. Had it been a dream? No. It couldn't have been I didn't know why or how , but I was completly sure more than anything that had it been real. I never dreamed like that. It was morning and I was confused.
