Gifted (part 2)

My name is Yakamoto. It's the only piece of information i am sure of. Cauze it is the first thing i remember, after my rebirth.

More than one year ago..... It was a day in January, 2027. I was in bed, not knowing how i got there. Just like sleeping, i was having a very odd dream. Not actually a dream. It was more like a series of events randomly, yet sequencially moving in front of my eyes.

The first view was a white guy standing on a ledge of a tall building. He looks at his watch. The time is 8 p.m. The top floor is so high that the clouds literally pass below him. He looks at a picture of someone on his phone. It was a young lady about his age. His expression is of anger and depression. The feeling being so deep, that he made an outward show of agression by throwing the phone into the cloudy abyss below. His last words:

"Kiara could've said yes. But, why not?? Just why...?? Why all this drama?" And then, he sought out the boundaries of the unknown kingdom, from whose boundaries no travellers return. But, guess he was wrong.... Only if he knew that luck, is magical.

The second view, was a bit identical. The same events, but in less detailed plots and scenes lasting for less periods. A man, of probably African lieniage, having a dark skin colour, stood on a ledge, as usual. He did not say anything in particular. Guess, he did not like wasting his anger and venting it out. The moment of suicide needed a bad temper. So that he can ignore logic and be irrational. Therefore, he was not willing to chill out in any way. Yet, his last words were:

"Some people never learn, some never pay attention. What can i do for them?? Uh..??" Then, he jumps after looking at his watch. 8:00 a.m. of the day.

But, what comes next, is what that intrigues the most. The view gets very bright. And it's so hazzy that what i see is narrowed down to the center. Absolutely no peripheral vision. The place is made of cloud, the floor is literally made of cloud. It's vast and empty. But then, i see a park bench. A voice echoes around:

"I've chosen you for a reason"

Then i see an old man like sage in white clothes. He's not that old but his eyes gleam with a power like anything you can imagine. He carries a stick like a scythe but without the blades.

"You're special.....Rise my Child"

He taps the stick at the floor. The cloud there dissipates and like vacuum, starts to pull something like dust from below. Then these dust like glowing matters appear from everywhere. Down there i can picture every possible source of life, trees, animals, microbes, virus, multicellular, acellular and even unknown things. Each one of them is releasing some of these glowing dust. These float and funnel above and direct to a place far away.

The view shifts to the way these move. These drop to a place in Earth from that place. The place itself i can't recognize. They sway, move, swirl into somebody who's lying down. He's unconcious, or as it seems dead. The body is torn at places. But they are healing. And i seem to recognize the healing, yet distraut face. It looks a bit like both of the earlier two guys. The glowing dust gets absorbed into his body. His chest begins to lift up and down, beginning to breathe. Then, i look right at his eye, the right one in particular. He twitches it strongly, as if something is bothering inside. I get scared when he looks dead on into me. His eye is webbed. I mean that his white region is covered with red bluish line that stretch to his cornea. But more amazingly, his pupil is like an infinitestimal center of energy, emerging several, numerous paths of energy outward. It's like a spider web from the middle. But the web is like the head of dendrite of our neurons.

I dive into it and i get surrounded by those vines of paths. As i go deeper, i realize the paths end into the organisms i saw before. Like the center draws energy from them. A hub that joins co-existence. Then, everything goes black.....

The distant voice echoes again:

"It may be too much for you. But, when the time is right, you shall be the one to chance the course of the universe. Choose wisely."

If that was anyway weird, what i saw after waking up was above my biggest expectations. I was not ready, ever.....The mirror had to be lying.
