The Weirdo
Zhap was blinded by a lustrous shock of light. He slowly opened his eyes in pain. He wander around with his eyes, turned to his left and right in awe. Lights were dancing like the auroras that pleased his imagination. Stars were hovering in the dark. A small ball of light with an array of color in its tail swifted rounding, alluring him. It is like pointing a direction. Zhap erected and paced for four and one more as his eyes glued on the small ball of light. He looked at his feet, as he used to walk. He was shocked and loss his breath trying to reach something, like a flapping stuff. The small ball of light turned to a bright giant ball of fire sneezing a crumbling array of color. Its mouth was as wide as the circumference of the Earth with its black sharp teeth ready to grind him like a dust. As he was falling, the giant ball of fire became bigger and bigger as it was ready to burst. He swooped into nowhere. He began to feel the heat in his body, and flamed like comet. His cloths were burnt up. Totally naked. Still falling like no ends. He wanted to shout but no sound. In his mind, "I gonna fall like a dirt to nowhere!" And the giant ball of fire exploded and fissioned all the celestial bodies into debris and dust.
Then a green light caught him up, and whirled into and hurled him down. Debris pelted his face. Gravity pulled him down but the air dragged him up. Friction turned him upward and twisted turning downward. He breathed once at a time. His sight was lossing and his memory was fading.
A minute passed, he peeped a bluish wide horizon through his shutting eyes. Nearly dropping down onto the water, in his perception. Suddenly an irritating alarm rang, and he roused in shock. He was panting as if he ran a mile. "It was just a dream!" Held his pounding head as he jump off the bed for school.
Zhap dreamed it many times, every night for sure. When he was 12-year old, he told it to his friends but he became a laughing stuff. He was labelled as "weirdo" in his school which made him walked, ate and standby alone in the park, adjacent to his school. In his weekend, he used to play computer games, experiment in his secret dark room, and create something functional from parcels, such as sensored flying chair that when not touched turned into a useless flat metal. He was happy creating his imagination into tangibles.
At Herbert University, he was walking at the side of the hall with his hood when four of his Senior banged him deliberately, "Hey, Weirdo! Watch out..." And they all laughed, but Zhap didn't mind them and continue walking. They reached him up and gave him a blow on his abdomen. Zhap kneeled in pain holding his abdomen. The other students along the hall laughed as if they don't care on him.
The buzz sounded and it's time to be in the class. He waited everyone to disperse and got up and rushed in to his class but the professor was already there. He remembered what an embarassment he got from that "genius" when Professor Baily called him VIP the scholar. So he diverted to the library, the best place he would relax and find peace over a book, The Lost Kingdom of Ur. He sat in between the shelves and began reading. He turned the page 26, The Nymph of Ur. A thing likened to a firefly came out of the book and circled him and flew to the Geography section. Zhap followed it, and the "thing" sat on the globe, at the Southeast direction. Zhap stealthy paced to pick it up but it was like pointing something on the world map. He looked closely, it was a small dot above New Zealand. He was about to pick it up but seeped him towards the dot. Out of fear he screamed and drowned by light.
"Whaaaa!"
