Chapter Dream
Not again, I cursed throwing my pillow at the window. Stupid cock, it just had to do that outside my window always. The sun was already showing signs of breaking out of the horizon. I could hear fumbling in the kitchen most likely Merlyn preparing breakfast. I took a quick shower then changed to my school uniform. My nose wasn’t hurting but it was still red and swollen, I could still feel slight thumping. “I’m sorry about your nose, it was beautiful” Merlyn handed me a cup of tea. She inspected it then looked at me with pitiful eyes. “It was quite a blow though”. “The guy was a crank” I sighed then sipped my tea; my voice was back again so I didn’t have to hear myself sound funny.
“You are up early Pinocchio,” I heard Kate giggle behind me “couldn’t sleep over a broken nose?” she feigned a pitiful face which served to make my anger boil even more than the tea I was drinking. “Have some respect Kate” Merlyn reprimanded. “Mom if I’m to go to school with him again he should avoid shaming himself in public like that” Kate retorted seriously. Well that seemed to be the reason why she was so mean at me for nothing in particular. But I wasn’t shaming myself, I was taking part in adventures, I had to explore dangerous possibilities to comprehend unknown facts.” Well rest assured, I won’t be delivering my nose to be broken again anytime soon little cousin” I smiled then took a big bite off her hamburger.
“Mom, he is bullying me” Kate complained. “Eat fast you’ll be late for school…” Uncle stark said but suddenly, why was his voice lessening every second. Why is his figure going blurry? What’s happening to me? Why cant I hear them? Why can’t I control my body? My body fell with a loud thump on the kitchen floor. I felt my head starting to wet, warm water? I only managed to let out a whimper before I slipped into the sea of oblivion.
Aww, a wolf cub, so cute. I felt my eyes twinkle at the sight of an extremely cute golden cub. Its fur was shiny and it beautifully reflected the bits of sunrays that landed on its small body. The wolf cub stared at me with huge blue eyes I really wanted to snuggle it on my arms. The big problem was that I didn’t have a body, I was just there, and I was nothing, a nothing staring at a golden cub. What’s this? A dream?
The scene suddenly changed from the beautiful forest to an ancient large room. “What the fuck?” I swore. Large wolves, horse large wolves, and black, brown, white, red, about a dozen wolves stood and stared directly at me. I mean if there was anything to stare at at all, I was bodiless. The wolves looked terrifying and so large to be true. Am I having a fantasy dream again? I’ve never had one before, this was a new one.
“It’s about time” a melodious voice sounded. An extremely stunning woman wearing a pale white robe sat on an ancient looking chair petting the golden cub. Her eyes were like a white light abyss, so shiny I only managed to look at her for a short while before I temporarily felt my eyes dim. She stared affectionately at the golden cub she was holding then at me.
“The boy is not ready” I heard a growl sound from one of the wolves “I can recommend better men”
“I chose him” the lady smiled “the time is also past, it’s too late to explore other alternatives”
“Why my lady? Why him? He is just some normal teenager with nothing special about him except his looks” another voice sounded from one of the wolves. I wondered why I was able to hear them, maybe this dream was a special one, and it came with special effects. “He is not normal, trust me” the lady smiled revealing perfect white well organized teeth. Immediately she finished speaking, a simmering sting coursed all over my body. It felt like swimming in a sea of wasps, I let out a groan. The wolf cub twitched as if in pain, it also let out a painful whine. The wolves in the ancient room started disappearing one at a time until we were only left, me and the cub.
Well this is a painful dream; at least I had a wolf to pet before I woke up. Another wave of pain emanated from my bodiless body. The wolf also twitched as if in the same pain I was experiencing. I wanted to wake up from this dream but I felt pity if I had to leave the cute cub here. “Ah” I screamed loudly out of pain, I was clenching my invisible jaws I could also feel myself sweating profusely. The pain I was experiencing was otherworldly.
The cub tossed and turned then after a while, it spun and stared at me with its blue eyes. I blinked, it blinked back. I curved my mouth in a slight smile, the cub copied, well it really felt more like I was doing what it was, funny right? The cub exposed its cute line of small white canines. The pain was miraculously beginning to reside after the surprising revelation. The cub started to disappear inch by inch, but I still felt it around. I felt it in me, it merged with me, and it was me.
The best dream ever, I thought. This was definitely a dream to story tell, I turned into a wolf in my dream. My mind was slowly coming back; I was regaining control of my body again. But the first thing I heard was …… beeping sounds.
