The Lifestream.

The green swirls of energy flowing like a river around me can only be that of the Lifestream. I've never been told or shown what the essence looks like, but, of course, no one knows what it's like to be IN it; you can't necessarily come back from the dead, right? With that in mind, the only explanation is, I've passed on. I'm pretty sure this is it, though! I do admit, it is quite tranquil, but I just never expected it to be like this! I mean, I can still see my body!

Supposedly, when you die, you return fully to the Lifestream. Body and all, at least, in some rare occasions, or more like my occasion. Great….. I wonder if every person who dies goes through the same thing I'm going through. What is it exactly I'm doing? Well……

I'M FALLING!!!

Yes, down I go! And ridiculously slow I might add! Like a car going 10 mph on cruise control. Besides the Lifestream and me going at the same pace, everything else is pretty much blank. How long have I been like this? Well, since time is of no importance here, I can't be exact. But I will say that I'm guessing around 2 or 3 hours. Most of the time, I've been resting. Casually falling head first to a bottomless, well, bottom. This place is too majestic to be called a simple 'pit'.

I wonder how I died. Since I've been in the Lifestream, I haven't been able to recall a number of things. The basics I know, such as name, background, family, and friends, but what had happened to me the last week I had been alive is a little blurry. I don't even know if I died in an accident or by someone. Eh, I'm not too worried.

As childish as this is going to sound, why am I not with my family? My mother always told me that when I die, I'll be happy and with the people I care about. But I'm not happy, nor do I feel anything. And there isn't anyone around as far as I can see. I must have done something to make the planet mad at me, or something close to it. Am I going to be like this for all eternity? This bites…….


Hour 4 of time in the Lifestream.

Yup, I'm still here. Nothing much has changed. Though, I will say that I'm starting to remember the first three days of the week before I died. It's something at least, right?

SHWISH!!!!

WOAH!

Okay! Now I'm falling faster!! So much that my eyes are getting watery! Heh, I didn't think eyes could get watery in the Lifestream.

More to that, I can see the Lifestream swirls gathering at the bottom of me. They're forming a white light circle. Great, seems I'm getting kicked out. Man, I'm going to have to remember what I did in my life that was so bad, that it would make the Lifestream not want me!

Oh, I'm about to hit it! Wonder where I'll end up.

SHIIING!!!

WHISTLE!!

Shiver. It's cold. Really cold! I didn't know it could get cold in the Lifestream……Wait. Why is everything black?

…………………

OH! Ch, stupid. My eyes are closed……Why can't I open them? Now that I think about it, I'm really tired. And sore! That's it! I have changed my outlook on the Lifestream for the worst! There's no such thing as pleasantries after death. Forget this; I'm going to take a nap.


Ah! I feel-...Naw, I still feel like I've been hit by a truck, but good enough to open my eyes! Let's see where I'm at, shall we!

My eye lids flutter open, to a dizzy world. Man, how hard did I fall?! For all I know, I could've died! Again! Anyway, my sights clearing up….. To a polluted night sky? Well, that's new. It's not polluted back home, so I guess I'm not home. Darn!

Since I can see, let's see if I can sit up. Slowly, slowly. AGH! My back just popped! I hate it when my bones pop! Eh, at least I'm up. WOAH!

Right in front of me, was the most amazing, yet unbelievable scene I have ever seen!

Midgar. THE Midgar! Glowing a fine green, like the very Lifestream I was just in! Cranes dispersed all around in the city's inner walls and the Shinra Electric Power Company's head quarters standing like a glorious edifice. Though it's not finished yet, but that's beside the point! It shouldn't be there! It's supposed to be gone!! Away! Poof! Not over 20 miles in front of me!! This can't be!

I'm gawking. My mouth is hanging open as we speak! I got a chill, I'm so surprised! Though the cold could have something to do with it. Speaking of which, since it's so polluted out here, the reactors' in the city must be active. If that's the case…..then I'm in the past!!! Sweet moogles, I think the Lifestream's giving me another chance! But so far back? Eh, I shouldn't question the soul of the planet.

Well, if's it's true that the Lifestream is giving me another chance, though I don't know entirely, I should figure out what to do from here. Hm……well, I'm not exactly in the best of shape to start with, so-HOLY GAIA!!!

M-my hand! What's going on?!

Right there in front of me, is the hand of a child. My hand! I'm not a child! I'm a teenager! What's going on! As I look at the rest of myself, I became completely speechless in my mind. Standing at about no more than 3 1/2 ft. tall at about 42lbs. was me! Dark brown tussles of Ash brown hair hung an inch or 2 past my ear, spiking outward as it grew further from my head. My bangs being longer than the rest of my hair, to my chin, gained a curl instead of spiking since I play with it a lot. Sadly, I'm wearing the clothes I died in, so everything was WAY too big! I still had my bag as well, so there was a plus side I guess. But nevertheless, I'm a preschooler in teenager's clothing!! There is NO way I can get around like this! AGH!!!


……1 hour later…..

Well, I've been sitting here rummaging through my pack, since I thought of nothing to help me in my dilemma. The useful stuff I have is: my flashlight, my pocket knife, my friend's gun (with only a case of 12 bullets), a map (which is useless now that I think about it since it's a different time period), 75,237 gil, 3 elixirs (one being half full), a first aid kit, my cell (which surprisingly gets service!), and seven materia (three being summons and the others being fira, curaga, aero, and a funny looking gray one).

Now, I was always told that I was a packrat, but I just now realized how true that statement really was! Of my things that were in the useless category, this is it: my sketchbook, my little pencil bag, my wallet sized album, my academy ID (which has a bad picture of me), the keys to my brother's bike (feel sorry for him), a belt, some yarn (don't ask), a few nails and screws, scraps of papers with notes on them (a shopping list and such), some seeds (once again don't ask), a mirror, some safety clips (which I'm glad I have since I can use it for my clothes), a few hair ties, my hair ribbons (one for each day of the week! I know, I'm weird), my brush, a shoelace, some really sharp chop sticks (that not what they're called, but eh, that's what they look like), and my headphones (they hook up to my phone and play music! Eh, I was a teenager, so sue me). Yup, I have to apologize to my dad for being wrong. Thankfully, I was able to find my special bandana, which I'm now wearing on my head! It's red on one side and dark blue on the other so it matches the rest of me!

Anyway! Now that I've bored you with the details of what's in my bag, let me tell you my plan of getting back to my time!

I'm going to wing it! Just play it by ear and hope for the best! Since fate isn't exactly on my side, in fact it was the one who did this to me, I have really no certainties that I'll come out of this at all! I might as well give it my best shot, right? Let me just fix my clothes and my appearance and I'll get going!

To Midgar, and my impending doom!!


Next Chapter:

My Name Is...

Light Twilight Darkness: Well, this is the first chapter to a very LONG series I've been planning for a while now. I'm open to criticism and any opinions, though they have to be appropriate. Thanks and R&R!
