Chapter 3
A white light blinded me as I stepped into what was supposed to be the hallway to the meeting, but instead it was a forest and a blue sky with hardly any clouds in sight.
"What the he-" A thunderous sound shook the ground behind me. Like a chick in a horror flick, I turn to the noise, "Oooooooh shi-!" A teal light or whatever rushed pass by me in a shape of a dragon and swiveled out of view.
"The hell was that!" I dropped my things as I heard a gruff voice growl, "That all you got!"
Rubbing my eyes I blinked a few times as I saw a few figures in the near distance. A red dot was holding a giant…fang? The hell is this, and a voice inside me echoed Sweetie you're not in Kansas anymore. At that last word I heard a smirk as another dot lifted his sword to his face and gave a slight twist, the same dragon formed and my heart bumped up another notch.
I readied for the impact as the whip of light turned to lightning then to a flood as it came racing towards me. Like every person in that situation I prayed hard for my life as I shut my eyes.
A minute passed, then ten minutes and nothing seemed to happen. I opened my right eye then my left eye. I was back in the hallway in Los Angeles, California. I shook my head and gathered my things and wobbled to the office.
Everyone was sitting in his or her respective chairs as I entered and set up my presentation or proposal. The tri pod held my storyboard and my suitcase was gaping open on the cherry wood desk.
"I am sorry for my tardiness, I am Valor Jaden. But here I am! So with out further adieu, ladies and gents here is the plot for your new movie." I continued to explain the plot with each point to each of the drawings. As I sold my idea to the audience I passed out my pamphlets and story line. With each scene I acted out the part and changed my voice to fit the scenario.
The audience shook their hands as they scribbled in their notebooks and iPads. As I drew to the end of the story I took a breather and simply said, "The End."
I collapsed my pointer and waited. My boss smiled and turned to the consumers, "what do you think? She's pretty expressive isn't she?" They nodded one after another and begun to mumble amongst themselves.
I straightened my papers into my briefcase.
The time slowly clicked by with each tick from the clock.
The leader who was dressed in a black and purple matching suit stood up, "well that was an impressive, very impressive presentation. We, my company are sold!" He gestured to his fellow colleagues, and then he clasped his hands, "Congratulations!"
Everyone clapped and shook hands as they exited the office like a group of well-behaved kindergartners. As the last associate left the office I plopped into the nearest chair and gave a long exhale, "that was waaay to close." I laid my head back and thanked God.
I closed my eyes and hummed Mozart's Moonlight Sonata. My ears tickled and began to slightly heat up. Great! Here come the voices!
A little girl's giggle filled the air
Silence . . . there my heart skipped a beat as tears fell free from my eyes.
"Umm Lord Seshoumaru…?"
"What is it?"
"I was wondering if I died one day...?"
Silence . . . and this time it came with shock and another tug at my heart . . .
"Would you . . . would you always remember me?"
"Don't say such silly things."
I opened my eyes as the tears still flowed. I wiped them away and stood up. I gathered my items and left the office. I couldn't shake the feeling off from the conversation the voices had from my body. My hands tingled and my knees buckled. I walked to my office and shut the door, shouldering off my bag and dropped my suitcase as I walked to my chair and formed a nest with my arms to hold my head. This has got to stop… these voices… these dreams…visions… when will they stop?
Of course I knew the answer, but how to reach the demon.
My mind began to swirl with all the emotions and words that happened. He's not from here. The voice inside echoed Bingo!
Now what?
