Ok…you the know usual….bare with me…never mind…I'm not doing it.
The silence was deafening. Almost suffocating. In front of her, a stretch of darkness, nothingness, could be seen, or not seen. There were no stars, no planets. A sea of black emptiness stretched on and on.
Then a beat. And then another one. Then a steady rhythm continued on. She realized after much confusion it was her. But what part of her? Her heart. Her heart was beating. A steady thump broke then infinite silence. Then a light could be seen. Far away. It could have been a star. A sun. she tried to reach for it. Too far. It was always too far. Again. She stretches out her hand.
She keeps on drifting towards the brilliant white light. Life. It's waiting for her out there. Just shinning. Almost there. She reaches out her hand to grasped the light. Got it. She holds on. She is breathing now. In and out. Breathing.

It was a sunny day. The sun was out and the birds were singing. The scenery is a mountain side. A house could be seen and close by, steps. Trees provide a gentle shade along the steps. At the top is a shrine. A young man sweeps the stone pathways as an elderly man sits and drinks his tea. Past this scene, a small path is hidden. Following the path leads to a small cave. A young women comes out of the cave and skips towards the men. In side, a small light is shinning at the end of the cave. Coming closer, there is a glass case. Another young women sleeps inside.
The birds are chirping and the sun is shinning. Serenity fills the air. Inside the cave, the young woman slowly awakens.
Next to her glass bed is a single word carved into the stones.
"YUGI"
