Chapter 3: Dream of the Past.
Sarah showed me and Bran around Huntercome Manor. It looked pretty much the way it had been before.
But my mind kept wandering back to the girls warning. 'Prepare yourself.' She had said, but for what?
The day went by so fast that I don't remember much of what went on that day. Bran and Sarah seemed to like each other well enough. Sarah had accepted the fact that Bran was albino and didn't even make a comment on it, Bran liked her for that.
Later when Bran and I headed back to the Stanton farm I saw the ghostly girl again and pointed her out to Bran.
"Who is she?" Bran asked his eyes wide.
"I don't know," I admitted "but she gave me a warning earlier-"
Just then the girl turned around and stared directly at me. Her lips didn't move but her voice said in my head 'Will, you have to remember.'
"Remember what?" I whispered to myself. Of course Bran heard me
"Will?" he said tentatively.
'Everything you know Will, is about to change' the girls voice said then she disappeared as if she had never been there.
That night I dreamed.
I was standing in a line with a bunch of young children. I myself was about eleven years old in this dream. I saw a girl, about sixteen years old in a white dress with black spiral fractals on the edge of the bottom, walk directly towards me. I looked down as she approached but in a moment I felt fingers under my chin lifting my face up to hers. I stared right into Sarah's blue eyes,
'What is your name?' The question was asked by the girl but she hadn't moved her lips, I realized that she had spoken to me in my mind
'William' I replied in my head.
"Welcome," she whispered softly to me, out loud this time, "welcome to the Palace of the Guardians, William"
I gulped and then said in a careful voice "It is an honor to be here, Princess."
She smiled at me, a warm gentle smile. "Call me Sarah." It was not a command, but a request.
"As you wish… Sarah"
I was looking at Sarah from behind her as she looked out on the gardens. She was still about sixteen years old, but I was now about seventeen years old. I walked up behind her, placed my hands on the bannister on either side of her and lowered my lips to her neck, which was exposed because her gold-blond hair was pulled back in a braid.
"Will," it was a whisper but I heard it. I kissed her cheek and wrapped my arms around her waist, pulling her close to me.
When I woke up I did not understand what I had dreamed. I did know that this is what the girl had meant when she told me to 'remember',but I had no idea what else I was supposed to remember.
Okay! so there you have it! sorry that its so short but i wanted to make up for how little time I've been spending on the series.
