Chapter 36 - What's Going to Happen
The world slowed down, and William looked around. The helicopter melted away. He watched as his perception sort of dwindled in this void, then began to melt away and suddenly he was left with nothing.
When he first opened his eyes he didn't know where he was, then slowly he remembered. They were in that clearing, that clearing that Meredith had kept as a secret space for over a decade now. He looked around. Had he been drugged? He didn't know.
"William." He turned around. Meredith stood there, her angelic looks making William want to keep her lasting like this, with her beautiful blond curls endowed with flowers, her body carefully accented by the silver gown. He looked at his own clothing. Silvery robes hung off his body loosely.
"Meredith, what's going on?" His voice echoed like in the dream sequences in the movies. Meredith gave a pretty smile.
"Its a vision Will, its a truthful preminition. This is us, we are angels. We each protect something worth more then life itself."
"What are you talking about Meredith?"
"I am your saviour as you are the saviour of the Earth Will. I am the weapon you are the user."
"Meredith you're not making any sense." She came a step towards him.
"It never will make sense Will. Ever. No matter how hard you apply science or logic there is no science or logic in this situation. We are what we are and there is nothing we can do to stop that. ANd if we could Will, would you really want too?"
Meredith's words had an impact on him. He thought about it. Would he?
"Mere..."
"No Will, there is no excuse. One day they will return and on that day we must fight. We must fight with all our hearts. And at the end of the battle I leave for another world. A world where I can live forever."
"I won't let you die."
"You won't, but you can't stop death if it is meant to be." She gave a weak smile. William looked at her. Was she saying she was already dead?
"You have died haven't you?"
"No, Will. Right now we're alive. We're together. But one day, we won't be together, and you have be brave, for not only you, but both of us."
William looked at the ground. The whole forest started to glow. Meredith gave him a sweet smile.
"I don't want to ever be without you." William said. "I lost you once, and I would die if I lost you again."
Meredith eyes began to water up. She looked at WIlliam. His green eyes looked at her and Meredith suddenly felt something she never had before. She had the hope of thousands with his eyes. She bit her bottom lip and hugged WIlliam close like she had in the Opera house, only this time was different.
"You are and always will be my light in the sky William." She whispered into his ear. "And you make me want to live longer then you."
"Yeah right Blondie."
"Oh so you want to bet now?"
"You bet I do." He said. Meredith smiled and released him a little, then gave him a gentle kiss on the cheek.
"Then its a bet." She said, and let go of him. He smiled at her.
"Please don't tell me that's all you wanted to do."
"Fine, I won't." William smiled.
"Its just, you would call that a kiss?"
It took a single moment, but suddenly Meredith found herself liplocked with the boy she had promised was her brother. And yet she didn't move, didn't disturb the moment, didn't want to. As she and William kissed, the whole forest glowed brightly and suddenly the light engulfed the whole area and they were lost in the light.
