Vision 0 - Waking up

I waited and waited, but nothing changed. I did not see anything, but then suddenly it wasn't feeling like the dream I am used to.

I tried opening my eyes. I had difficulty at first but after a few seconds, I felt like someone has on a flashlight towards me. A light appeared in front of me, it was bright, blindingly.

Sudden blood rushed into my veins, and I regained some sense. I tried to feel something around my skin and I felt something hard, but soft, against my back... like I was on ground but it felt more like... soil.

' I was in my bed. What happened?, I thought it was one of those dreams again. '

As I shouted into an unknown, I tried to move my limbs. It felt like my whole body was numb. I struggled a few minutes, I suddenly felt electricity running through my body. Blood was coursing through my eyes as it burned and they abruptly opened on their own.

The fog-like sensation cleared from my vision. The first thing I saw were long leaves hanging from the branches of trees. As I blink, which felt like that blink cast over like a shadow for several seconds on me, I saw more leaves through the blur haze.

I blinked several times to cast away the weird sensation and I moved my head to look around me. I noticed that I was surrounded by foliage, and the trees around me were huge.

I had to make an effort to push myself, to sit up, my muscles strained which was uncomfortable.

I straightened my back and a needle-pain sensation woke me completely. Fighting through the pain, I sat straight and looked around.

Grass up to my waist length and trees as tall as buildings came into my view, and I realize that I was in some kind of forest. And that just made me even more confused.

' If it is a dream, I should be in the sky, or somewhere watching some important event going on.'

' If it is not a dream, I should be in my bed.'

' Why am I in the middle of a forest? '

These kinds of questions were fumbling inside my head. First, I decided to check up on myself, to see if there are any injuries.

Thankfully I was not injured. There was nothing wrong with me, a relief sensation washed over me. I was so normal that it looks to me as if I actually slept here instead of my bed.

Not even my clothes are harmed. I had my overpriced leather jacket on my shoulders over a simple black T-shirt covering my torso, black jeans at the lower part of my body, and black boots that complimented them.

Why so much Black you might wonder? Black is just a cool color that's all.

Suddenly, I felt a mild headache and an aching sound escaped my mouth.

"Ahh."

Holding my head with my right palm, I try to converse my thoughts. The last thing I remember is, that I was too tired after coming back from college. So I just headed straight to bed and fall asleep, but now I am in the middle of a forest.

I spend long glances checking if I could find something near me which could give me some clues.

Once again It was all for not.

I got up, pushing through my back and legs. 'I should try to figure out where the hell I am?' I thought and then a random thought followed 'maybe someone drugged me or made me unconscious on purpose and left me here. ' It was very random, but that seemed like a plausible answer.

'But why would even a kidnapper will do that?'

' More importantly, How did they get into my house? '

' And Why did they leave me HERE?! '

I had too many questions but there was no one I could ask. Anyway, that idea was too ridiculous, but some how seemed more convincing to me.

Defeated, I looked around and saw a small hill in a distance. It shouldn't take me long to get to that hill. I felt basically in my top condition.

So I readily put my step forward and after a few hours of hiking, I managed to reached the top, a little tired granted, but the scene that came into my view was so mesmerizing that I can say it is worth it.

What I could see was that I am on some kind of Island. I could see the sea surrounding the island which is covered with forest. I could see different shades and size of trees, clustering with their own type.

It is night and the sky is filled with stars and a full bright brown-tinged gray moon is shinning like a diamond. I have never seen so many stars in the sky before. I live in a modern city with tall buildings and streets full of people.

Its not like I have never seen a sky filled with stars before, but not this many, and the reflection of the stars in the sea made it look as if the sky has its own twin mirroring each other. And the island was a stage where I witness this.

Like I am standing in a huge Planetarium that stretched over several kilometers covering the world around me.

" Beautiful. "

The word just came out on its own. It was just too delightful to watch.

" Beautiful indeed. "

Admits feeling captivated by the beautiful view, an even more beautiful voice pulled me, it was like magic. An extremely sweet voice, thin but commanding, stern but gentle, beautiful to hear like honey. A voice that is too pleasurable to listen to.

It was so soothing that it felt like a whisper to me. Unconsciously, I moved my head in the direction of the voice, and Boy I was wrong.

I was wrong about the scene with the stars being beautiful. When I moved my head toward the voice, a breeze suddenly came carrying some specks of unknown silver dust, and with that, my hair fluttered, leaves flew and past that an exceptionally charming woman was sitting on a big deformed cubical but smooth rock, a little farther from me.

The woman in front of me was extremely seductive and charming. She had fair skin, almost white, which seem to be glowing in the night. In contrast to her skin, her amethyst aubergine dark purple hair looked like her shadow.

Her silk-like waist length hair was moving with the breeze. Her eyes were amethyst color with a hint of yellow, like Ametrine.

If that was not enough. She was wearing a Black royal dress clutching to her seductive body and her exposed long arms and long white ankles with black high heels, which made her look even more attractive.

She had some kind of Demonic aura but she had some innocent charm as well, and that charm made her look Angelic.

I was confused and in trans-state, the words once again came out on their own. If there would be a goddess, she is one.

" Beautiful. "

She had her face rested on her palm and elbow on her knee - one above another. She was also looking toward the sea.

Seems to have heard what I said. She made a confused expression and looked at me. Since the rock she was sitting on was a little higher than where I was standing. She looked down at me, and I was gazing up at her.

Our eyes meet, and for a moment, I thought I was bewitched. Stuck, the world seemed meaningless to even consider to look at. All my gaze see, is the existence infront of me.

But somehow I could realize that my focus was drifting from me, then some self defense kicked in. Something snapped and I put my all, really, I put all of my heart as well as mind, and composed myself.

She is too Divinely-Demonic. I have never seen someone so beautiful, and I had seen my fair share of beautiful women.

As she looked at me, she raised an eyebrow, just a little. First, she looked a little surprised, then a little shocked, and then intrigued? With that, her lips parted into two and another sweet voice was heard.

" Interesting. "

I almost felt dazed again, but this time I was more focused.

After composing myself. I asked the most obvious question that anyone in my place would want to ask.

" Who are you? "

Seeing me focused she smiled a little, and at that I cursed inwardly. That smile was just unfairly beautiful. She answered my question in her sweet voice, this time deep, which had a little seductive charm, and with that, a name was heard.

" Persephone. "
