Last Night
Jun. 27th, 2006 08:09 pmBilly wakes and his mind reels as he starts up, and realizes he is in a bed. His mind shifts slowly and he remembers arriving and being escorted, and his father...
He shivers as he remembers words half heard, half felt...
"Son, I know you are having a hard time dealing with this, and I know this will come as a shock, but your mother and I have watched over you for years. The One made it possible and he has allowed us to be there for you. But we couldn't interfere, ever. And when you had your recent troubles, oh, how hard and bitter a thing this has been. And worse, still, soon we must go on. We love you, son, and always will, and we are proud of who and what you have made yourself."
His father's voice got serious then.
"You are here for a trial, a quest and a testing by the Six, but remember that you are not alone and the One, and we, are always with you."
Everything else faded into nothing, and Billy sighs as he lays back again. Was it real? Or was it another illusion?
He didn't know what to think, or feel. And what kind of trial and challenge was he here for? Unless... of course. The Six knew what had happened, and they wanted him to deal with it their way. He shivers again.
This is going to be very very interesting, and possibly very bad.
