Chapter 2: Fire Encounter

May 31, 2xx1

Atlas POV

After that weird dream of mine, everything that happened to me is so weird.

Flashback

And just a second before the world was completely shattered, the rubrics cube dashed in front of me intending the crash into my head I freaked out and could do nothing but standstill. 

The rubrics cube was so fast that I have no choice but to close my eyes in fear and wait for the impact.

"AHHHHHHHHHH~~~" I screamed on top of my lungs

Then at this moment, I woke up due to my own scream, I was sweating all over my body, and gasping for breaths.

"Thank god it was a dream, what a weird dream!" I sighed in relief

I reached out for my glasses out of my hobby. But just when I was about to wear my specs, I realized that the once blurry surroundings that welcome me every morning are now so clear I can even see the dust on the floor of my dirty room.

I put on my glasses and everything became blurry, I took off my glasses and everything became clear. I repeated this like a switch, on and off, on and off, on and off. I still can't believe that my once damaged eyes can now see things clearly even without glasses.

"What happened to my eyes? Is it because of the dream? Am I dying?" I was in a state of confusion at that moment.

"Nooooo I can't die yet! I need to find my parents! Noooooo~" I was panicking at the thought of my death.

"No, I need to relax, breathe Atlas breathe woooh~" I relaxed myself through breathing.

Why did I dream about it anyway? What a weird nightmare.

Then I decided to get out of my bed but the moment my feet touch the ground, the floor turns into to grid and in my eyes shows a "9.8 meters by 9.8 meters" that's when I realized my room was indeed 10 by 10 meters.

According to my knowledge, an average room of a hotel is indeed 330 square feet, if converted to meters it is approximately 100 square meters.

Then I turned my eyes into the wall, just like what happened when I touched the floor, the wall became a grid with data's showing me that the thickness of this wall is 4.5 inches with a height of 2.75 meters.

What is happening to me?!?!?

Back to reality

After that two weird happenings, I slept again hoping to enter that dream once more.
