Chapter 52: The New Me

I slowly drifted my eyes open to a burning yellow color.

"She is starting to wake up," I heard a voice excitedly yelp, "Let's hope everything worked out well, especially the black pill." I tried really hard to blink the yellow color out of my eyes, I didn't know what it was, but it really hurt.

"Pull her up, and away from the light," a voice snapped. I felt something go around me, and then being pushed up. The hands kept me securely up so I wouldn't fall back down.

"Welcome my child," the lady with glossy blond hair greeted me.

"H, hi," my throat croaked.

"Shush don't speak now because you don't have a lot of energy," this women seemed really nice, and her blue eyes were twinkling with kindness. I then decided that I liked this lady, and that she was a good person. "I'll be taking you home when you are safely ready, and well."

"Home," the vibration coming from my throat sounded out, and felt weird.

"Yes home. You may not understand this right now, but you will soon discover that I am your mother, and you are my daughter Ana."

"Ana," I repeated feeling my tongue say the word.

"Yes, now Ana please rest now, it will make mommy feel better," her crystal eyes were full of concern.

"Mommy?"

"8752932 please take here to her new room please," a man with dirty blond hair that was set in a ponytail picked me up gently in his arms. I started to become a bit drowsy in his arms, and soon fell back asleep.

"Mom," I cried out waking up from a nightmare.

"Ana I am right here," soft hands combed my hair back. The nightmare gradually faded, and my surroundings started to form in my vision. I was in my canopy bed that had royal red covers with gold designs on it, which draped all the way down to the floor. There was also an oak brown desk with a wooden chair that was in the far right corner. To the left of the bed was a table with two chairs that matched it, and looked like it was ready for a tea party. Right across from the bed laid a wooden wardrobe full of clothing for me.

"I had a scary dream," I looked up at my mother's perfect swan like face.

"It's okay it is over now." I tugged the covers off of me, and nestle into her arms. "Now Ana you have to be strong my daughter. You know what today is right?"

"Writing log," I asked? Everyday as training, mother would make me write anything that came into my head, I didn't understand why, but I did it to make her happy.

"No dear. You are one week and three days old," she informed me, and my heart shrunk when I remember what mother said I would be doing when I was ten years old.

"Mommy I don't want to meet that scary creature," tears were rimming in my eyes.

"Hun you have too. It is alright, if you need anything you just holler and 8752932 will be inside in a flash," she gave me a bear hug, and lifted my chin, "Now come on sweaty get ready, and when you are done press the speaker button so that 8752932 will know that you are done."

"Okay," I dragged my heavy legs out of the bed, and placed my feet on the floor.

"That's my girl," she kissed the top of my head, and moved towards the door, "Now I have to go."

"Bye mom," I wobbled towards my wardrobe, still trying to get use to walking, "Now what should I wear?" I open the door to the wardrobe, and skimmed at all the clothing. My hands stopped when I reached a silky red dress, which had a black lacey design. I had to sit down to change clothing, because my balance wasn't great at all, and I soon had tugged the dress on. Slowly, and after gripping the wardrobe to get up, I walked toward the button that would let me get a hold of 8752932.

"Yes Ana," his voice ringed in through the speaker after I placed my finger on the button.

"I am ready," the door open and 8752932 walked in.

"You have to eat your breakfast before we head off to see Special XYV."

"Yes sir, but I am still scared about seeing Special XYV, he seems like a scary creature," I mumbled. I glanced up to see that 8752932 had smirked, and after that sadness went across his face.
