Serge strives to achieve something that would change what people think of
him. It's just too hard to grasp! He desires to fulfill his dream, but
then he realizes that he must also face reality.

CHAPTER ONE
---------------------------------------------------------------------------- --------------------------------
"We will meet again someday. I promise."
These words keep echoing in my head. I don't remember who said them. I don't remember to whom these words were meant for. I only remember her voice, with a hint of sadness, regret, and surely, love all at the same time.
Everyday, I hear her voice. Everyday, it gets louder and louder, as if she was getting closer to me. Then again, I think it is I who is nearing her. Everyday, I try to remember to whom this voice belonged to.
A dream - one to remind me of my past. Such strange things took place in that dream. I recall a girl with me. Together we fought with all our might in a world lack of emotion. Once we were able to defeat whatever it was we were going against, the girl and I were enveloped in a warm, bright light. The next thing I could remember was that I ended up here - back in my home. I traveled back into my world - back to the Village of Arni.
I had no choice but to wake up and face reality.
"Wake up, Serge!"
I struggled to get back to sleep.
"I said WAKE UP, sleepyhead! I have some chores I need you to do for me."
I sighed. I knew that I couldn't stay in bed forever. I opened my eyes, blinking, and focused on the lady in front of me.
Suddenly, my head started to hurt terribly. I placed my hands on my head and tried to get it to stop aching. At that moment, I had a vision (at least, I think it was). I saw the same girl in my dreams - she was reaching out to me. Holding out her hand. Did she want me to come with her? As soon as I took hold of her hand, everything started to blur. I was once again in my room. This time, the lady was crowding over me; looking at me with worry filled in her big, brown eyes.
"Don't worry.I'm okay.I just felt a little headache." I tried to smile, but it was no use trying to hide the pain I felt.
She didn't say anything for a while but continued wiping off the sweat on my face. After getting me a cold glass of water, she left the room. I heard her talk in a faint whisper:
"It is finally time, my son. It is time for me to say goodbye. The same goodbye I gave to your father before he left this world."
She quietly closed the door and left me stunned. I was surprised that she said that to me. I was baffled. I didn't understand! I heard a faint sob and fell asleep thinking of what she meant.
It was later that day when I woke up again. I didn't bother to eat neither breakfast nor lunch.I wasn't hungry.
As soon as I was going to go out of the house, I spotted a small note saying:
Today, the course of your life has changed. The fates have lost track of that single thread that would hold you back. You have been left alone to choose a life of your own. You were given a destiny that was meant to defeat the fates and free the people from their control.
I was even more confused than ever. I couldn't believe it. Or is it because I didn't want to believe it? I told myself that this could have only been a very bad joke, but something told me that I was only lying to myself - that I would have to - (sooner or later) face my destiny and the reality of all that would ensue. I now found it hard to distinguish what this was. Is it only a dream? Or is this reality?

-- Please, no flames!!! This is my first EVER fic. I'm gonna put up some more chapters so the title would have more relation to the story. Requests and comments are welcome! How else could I improve it?
