Matthew Williams woke up to a sudden cold gust of wind. He looked around drowsily and rubbed the sleep out of his eyes. He was lying on a green field that didn't look like it contained anything because of the darkness of the night that was surrounding him. Matthew slowly stood up and stretched his legs. He noticed he was still wearing his tattered, faded jeans and his red jumper that was two sizes too big for him. That was when he saw the yellow piece of paper sticking out of his jeans pocket. He grabbed it and slowly opened the crumbled piece of paper.
"Visit 7 of the human embodiments of 7 different countries to find out where you belong." Matthew read the messy writing out loud.
Embodiments of countries? What was it talking about? Was there such a thing as countries in the form of people? If that was the case, would that mean they were immortal? But, how is this supposed to help me get home… Or wherever I belong?
All of these questions were running through his head. After a while of thinking and deciding it would be better to trust the note, Matthew saw a few rays of sunlight drift over the horizon. He then noticed an airport not far off.
"Well… How fortunate," Matthew muttered to himself and walked briskly towards the airport.
~~~~Time-Skip~~~~
Before getting on the plane, Matthew had found a passport in his jacket pocket. Choosing a flight from Australia to England, London he boarded the plane. Once the plane took flight he immediately fell asleep.
~~~~Time-Skip~~~~
The feel of a phone vibrating against Matthew's leg aroused him from his sleep.
Matthew turned on his phone and saw a text from an unknown number.
"If you don't find out where you belong by the end of this month then there is no hope for you to find out your purpose on this world." Matthew read the note quietly to himself.
Come to think of it, he didn't know what the date even was. Looking on his phone Matthew was shocked to find that it didn't hold a date.
"Excuse me, ma'am?" Matthew quietly asked the passing flight attendant.
"Yes?"
"Do you happen to know the date, today?"
"Why yes! It is the 1st of December, of course!" She exclaimed.
"Thankyou…" Matthew muttered, but she didn't hear him since she was already at the other end of the cabin, talking to another passenger.
After a while, Matthew managed to go back to sleep and not long after woke up in the rainy city of London.
