I stood in the abyss. It's darkness engorged my entire soul, sending a cold chill throughout my body. Well in more factual terms, the body that was not there. I knew I wasn't in the body of flesh and blood but some form of spiritual body. Is this abyss...Hell? I thought as I took a step forward. I took another, and another. Small clacks could be heard. They echoed throughout the abyss. Tho when I looked down, my feet had no boots. As a matter of a fact that I had no cloths on. Why I was nude here I didn't have time to think over. A voice ring down. It wasn't female nor man.
You have died in battle to save the very world. Because of the death of a hero, many are crying. The one's who were friends with him, and the ones that wanted to love him. You, Abel Nightroad, are to face judgment of me. For each good deed a gold crown shall appear next to you, but for each evil I wish not speak. Let it begin.
The voice faded, and a bright light split the abyss in haft. I covered my eyes and waited for it to end. The light did not fade, but voices could be heard.
"Why...are we always treated like monsters, Lithe?", it was my voice. My eyes opened and there it was. I was on the ARK, and there stood a image of myself. Next to me stood Lithe. Her hand was n my shoulder and she was frowning.
"Abel, they just don't understand that we are humans just like them. If it weren't for the fact of the nano's in our blood are the only thing that makes us different.", came Lithe's voice.
"Then how come were always up here? Never once have I seen what the earth looks like up close. I want to see the city's and the rivers. I want to know what a human looks like with out those things in there body! I want to know what the wind and sun fell like.", I said.
"I don't know Abel. All I know is that your dreams are very interesting. You have read about them but you wish to see them. Know what it's like. Seems that we have a common goal.", said Lithe. I looked at her and smiled.
The light was gone once again, and the Abyss filled the area. I looked around and frowned. It was the first time I had ever opened up to anyone. I didn't know then that I would be treated like a dog that was just order around later. I inhaled a let out a soft sigh. This memory made a small smile come across my face. I looked down to my feet and there was a small gold crown. I picked it up, and looked around.
Opening up and letting your dreams past to a loved one is just many of the ways you can be counted as a good person. It is a way to spread love and joy to that person. They see that you have hope and it gives them hope. The hope to push on. Your gave Hope resting into the crown that you hold.
I looked back down at the crown and in small silver letters on the side was the word Hopeful. I felt tears well in my eyes. I know in time I lose most of the hope. I lose it till I meet the young Catrina. Even then I have very little hope. I began to think of how I lose the will to push on. Of how I lost what I wanted. Of how she was the only one to ever hear my joy and happiness. Never once did I tell Esther of how i felt or my dreams. I hurt knowing no one could ever know such joy. I began to wonder of what next...
