I slowly sat up; I had no idea where I was. I looked around and saw Nathan sitting on a log clutching his head and looking towards the ground. He seemed to be muttering something which I couldn’t make out.
He shook his head and looked up slightly and caught a glimpse of my staring at him. He was pulling his hand down his face but then sat up straight.
I was starting to get a little scared at this moment, not only was I in a place that I haven’t been before, but I was also next to a guy who I barely know and is almost twice my size, if that.
He stood up and walked towards me. I shuffled away along the grass.
‘Wait, no, it’s OK… I won’t hurt you.’
‘Why should I trust you’, I muffled out.
‘You don’t need to trust me… you just need to listen’.
‘Listen to what’?
‘I have a bit of… well… explaining to do…’
‘A lot of explain to do actually’
‘Yeah… ‘
‘Where are we?’
‘I’ll tell you… later.’
‘Fine then… what’s going on?’
‘We’re different from other people… We’re not human’
‘We’re?’
‘Now I know this might come as a shock but… just stay calm’
‘What are we then?’, I said thinking this was just a practical joke
‘We’re… different, there’s not a real name for what we are but most just call us Guardians’.
‘So… you think I’m one of these Guardians?’
‘I don’t think… I know’
‘What? How?’
‘When we first touched… the effect it had on you… yeah… sorry about that’
‘Does this happen a lot?’
‘It’s not very common at all to find a Guardian the way I did… Well it’s never happened… ‘
‘What are Guardians then?’
‘They’re… angels.’
I reached for my head as it was still throbbing.
‘I don’t expect you to believe me yet but… let me show you something.’
He took off his shirt and revealed a tight thick bandage.
