Destined to save them all

10 Home?

I find Mrs Sanders where I left her. She has her eyes closed again with the biggest grin on her face.

What is with this women. I've known her for a while now and this is all new. She opens her eyes when I get close and motions for me to hand her the book and sit next to her. I do as she suggests and wait. She runs her hand over the cover of the book with a smile on her face but I can't make out what the look is. It's as if she is remembering something sad but also happy.

I just watch and wait for her to finish her moment. She looks at me with a sad smile. She grabs my hands and looks at the rings, she doesnt touch them just stares. She mumbles something under her breath I cant make out. She finally looks at me again.

"Can you understand anything in here? I know it isn't English but does anything make sense?"

"No I can't understand any of it. I've tried, I've looked through the whole thing twice and nothing" I say.

"You will understand it soon my dear. You are still too young but when you turn 18 it will all make sense.

I look at her in disbelief and say

"I don't think any of this will make sense its some kind of story book for kids. Fairy tales aren't real Mrs Sanders. These books just fill our heads with make believe things so we can fill our dreams with rino bears and little kids who think they are dragons. That stuff isn't real"

She grabs my hands tight making me wince. She is looking me straight in the eyes. Her eyes are changing colour again it's fascinating and a little scary at the same time.

"What did you say? Rino Bears? Dragons? Did you see them?"

"Um I had a dream last night after trying to read the book. I was in a field, mountains one side, a river the other then a crying boy said he was a dragon prince with no friends. I gave him my bracelet said im his friend he said I hope I was his mate when he gets older said I could be his queen. Then rino bears chasing some hot guy needed saving I saved him woke up saturated from head to toe smelling like crap." Now that I say it back it sounds even more crazy then what I first thought.

"What was the boys name? who was the guy you saved? What did you feel?"

What is up with all these questions I feel like I'm having a pop quiz sprung on me.

"The boys name was Dominic he was 8. The hot guy i have no idea who he was I couldn't see his face it was all fuzzy. He was at least a foot taller then me built like a truck. Most muscular man I've ever seen. I felt happy when I first got there. Happy and free. Dominic made my day, he was so excited to have a friend he was the cutest little kid I've ever seen. Said he will get his dragon one day and he will be King. Then those monsters were scary, running for my life i didn't want to be trampled. I felt tingles when I grabbed the guys arm It felt like static electricity running through my whole body".

She starts to ramble to her self again but this time it's loud enough I can hear.

"No this can't be. You couldn't have gone their yet. You're not old enough to go back. This doesn't make any sense at all. Its not time, your not ready".

"Mrs Sanders what are you talking about? What can't be happening? What doesn't make sense? Go back where?"

"Home my dear. That is your home"
