The Choosing

443 Words
OUCH!!!!! What’s up with this pounding pain in my head?      Then anything went black. When I woke up I was in a weird room. Looked around and saw it was a room full of people I had never seen before. Who are these people thought to myself? In the reflection of my glasses I saw a five year old  me standing there. Started looking for my parents in a panic. But something  told me to stop.  When I looked up in front of me there was an old man with glasses and mostly bold. I pulled on his shirt and felt in my heart that I knew him. I asked him, Mr.  Can you help me find my way home? The man had a shock look on his face. I looked back at him.   "Child do you know where you are and why it's so silent? No, sir."     He bent down and wiped away a tear. He held out his hands and a light appeared.  He looked at me with concern. This  is a choosing  cemetery. One of these people will become the new holder of the pure light. "Why is it so quiet? They are all here to listen to what I will say.  Why can I talk then? I am not sure child.  Could I be the one you're looking for? I looked down. The light was gone but I felt  this power come over us.  Take my hand Mr. and whatever you do not let go. Think only good thoughts too. It seems to help. Inner light shine bright  fast forward through time.  What’s happening to all these people?  These are the ones that die or fall  into  darkness in the near future. Now, you will see my future but I will have no memory of this. For no one mint to know their future.  After that I returned to my five year old self.  Child I think I know why you're here.  Why sir?  I have a daughter and she’s pregnant. Maybe she is the one I am looking for but why at such a young age. What year is it sir?  1995. I am the baby growing in her tummy, so in short I think you are my grandfather. I have chosen"     He got down on one knee. Held the light in this hand again. Child touch the light. First, I hesitated but again I felt something pull on me.I touched the light and then the light transformed into a butterfly and before it could fly away she spoke to light.   "By shining light it has been done. I have sealed the light within her heart.  Wipe from her mind of all that has happened. By pure light keep her safe." Then the butterfly flew away and I followed it home.
