I turn my head around to see a man with robes covering his right shoulder and waist standing in the doorway. His skin was a pale white, similar to colour of my room. He had three rings around his neck with a small circular necklace. His hair is almost the same as his skin. It's parted on the left side of his head. It looks wavy. His hair matches him and gives off the feeling like he is someone very important.
"Well, do you think the dress looks good? I think it does."
"Um,...."
"Hm, is something wrong? Do you not like the room? I tried to pick the best we had for you. You are special to us."
"Why?"
"Hm?"
"Why am I special?"
"That's easy. You are what we have been trying to recreate. You are human."
"Where are the others?"
"What others? You are the only human."
What? I'm alone? But, Hyoshi, Doc, Jay, Damien, they told me that they would always be with me. Why are they not here?
"Um, may I ask who you are sir?"
"Of course, I'm the Prince."
"The Prince of what?"
"The moon."
The moon? Am I on the moon? How am I breathing then?
I put my hands over my chest and started to inhale big chunks of air. It became harder to breathe. The prince must have noticed this and quickly walked to my side. He put his right hand on my back and his left on my hands. In a slow and gentle voice he said,
"Breathe in and out."
I did what he said and started to feel better. He helped me stand up straight to make it easier for me to inhale.
"I'm sorry, this must be a big shock to you. Would you like to sit down?"
I nodded and we walked over to the bed. He helped me sit down and then sat on my right.
"Would you like me to explain things to you?"
"Yes please."
"Where would you like me to start?"
"Why am I on the moon? What happened to Earth? How am I able to breathe? Where are my friends?"
"Long ago humans used to inhabit the Earth. After a string of meteors hitting the planet, the three components of humans split-flesh, bones, and spirit. The flesh and bones remained on Earth while the spirits left for the moon. We have been trying to recreate the humans for over a millenia. You are the first successful recreation. I don't how you are able to breathe, and, as I have said before, you are the only human."
"I, I don't know how to react to this. This is too sudden."
"I understand how this must feel for you, however, you are very special to us and we will do all we can to make you happy and comfortable."
"Could you bring back my friends?"
"All we can do is try."
"That's all I need."
The prince stood from the bed while saying,
"Now that we are done with the basics, would you like a tour of the moon?"
He held out his white hand, as if he were asking me to hold it.
"I would gladly."
