Pidge's Point of View

I woke up in a cold sweat, my heart pounding in my chest, my breathing shallow. I felt a lump in my throat as if I had been crying. I sat up, trying to catch my breath. Everything around me was a dark blur. I took comfort in the familiar embrace of my bed sheets. The softness of my pillow. The stability of my wooden bed frame. Most of all matter is just empty space between atoms. I felt that more than ever now. Like I was empty space, barely existing. My door jolted open and there was my parents. They rushed over to my bedside, mum pulling me into a tight hug.

"Katie, are you alright? We heard a scream coming from your room." She whispered, her soft voice comforting me.

"It's nothing. Just a bad dream." This was partially a lie. It was a bad dream. But it wasn't nothing.

"Katie, this is the fifth time this week you've had a bad dream and told me it was "nothing"." My mum was a no-nonsense kind of person. It's kind of like the whole "ask and you shall receive". She asks and she must receive.

"I know, mum. But I'm serious. It's probably just a phase." Like my supposed dinosaur phase that I never really grew out of.

"Are you sure? You know you can tell us anything." My dad knew I had issues with talking to people. People have always been a mystery to me. Which is why I prefer to endorse myself in computers and technology.

"Yeah, I'm sure." I feigned a smile so they would believe me.

"Alright. Goodnight, my sweetheart. We'll see you in the morning. And no more bad dreams." My mother said before her and dad left the room, shutting the door behind them.

I laid back down and tried to fall back asleep. This was impossible. The images of the dream kept me awake. They tore away my mind. Everything I knew was fading into nothingness. I had seen strange creatures and machines bigger than skyscrapers. I had seen war and death. I had seen a bright light and a figure in the distance, calling out for help. The apocalypse? I thought. But no. How could I have seen the apocalypse? It was just a stupid concept created by conspiracy theorists to get attention. Maybe it was a distant calling. Something in the universe telling me, showing me my destiny.

When I was really little I would gaze into the stars with my father. He would tell me that when the time is right the universe would tell me my purpose in life. He said it's what lead him to my mum. Of course I told him that it was impossible for spheres of gas and balls of fire to tell him things. He just smiled at me and told me that seeing isn't always believing. Maybe he was right. Maybe this is my purpose. And if that is what it was, then it only leaves one question.

What does it mean?
