Date: Tue, 11 Dec 2007 22:26:24 -0800 (PST) From: Scott Samson Subject: Special One 3(SF/Fantasy) There we were, standing in our sweet embrace. It felt so right, so like it was meant to be. I wanted the kiss to last forever. I placed my arms around his waist and he did so around my neck. I was lost in the torrent of passion that was coursing through our touch and kiss. Then suddenly the passion stopped. His body went limp and stopped returning the embrace that was being given to him. His body suddenly felt heavy in my arms. I finally opened my eyes to see what was happening. He was pale, very pale, I knew something was wrong. His breathes were quick and heavy but it also seemed very calm. Was he asleep? I quickly put one arm behind his neck and the other underneath his knees. I easily lifted him and carried him through to the front yard. The front yard consisted of a long 2-carrarige (he doesn't know what cars are) wide paved driveway with 2 big pine trees on either side of the driveway near the road and there was another two closer to the house. Further, there was a bird bath filled with water and a few birds were bathing in it. Even further was a big Sycamore tree and finally at the end of the lot was a line of pine trees bordering this residence with their neighbor. Along a concrete path were a few cedar hedges and between 2 of them was a flowerbed of an assortment of color ranging from purple to red. Beside the flowerbed was a higher elevated concrete platform and there was a concrete path along the house that reached it, supposedly leading to an entrance. When I walked up the concrete steps, I noticed a door behind blocked by maybe 2 dozen boxes; therefore I couldn't get in through there. I walked back towards the driveway with Scott in my arms and I mentally hit myself when I saw a flight of stairs leading up to a door. I walked up and knocked on the door, to no avail. I leant up against the window and saw a girl that looked around the same age as Scott, her back towards me. I stood up by the door, waiting for it to open. When she opened the door, I was so shocked. I heard a thump, and then she leapt down and yelled. "Scott! What happened? Why did you drop him?" She continued staring at me coldly as she pushed her way to Scott. "Kelly, what are you doing here?" I asked stunned to see, an almost exact replica of my younger sister only older. "My name isn't Kelly, I'm Sarah! Now get my brother in here!" She yelled. I picked Scott off the floor and went into the house. The first part of the house looked more like a workshop than anything else, there was all sort of junk everywhere, no wonder it took time to get to the door. Directly across from the entrance I was let in, was a another door leading outside, on the left side was a door that led towards a bigger part of the house, on the right was a door leading to a lower level of the house (aka garage) "We better get him to bed, follow me to his room." She said as she led me to the door on the left. I nodded and followed her. The first room we entered was the living room. It was split into 2 sections, the seemingly smaller section had many desks pushed together in a row and there were boxes on them and somehow one of the boxes displayed a picture. In front of that box was a board and something that resembled a fake mouse. (Aka computer) We entered the bigger half to my left. This room had even bigger boxes that displayed pictures (aka TV). Across the boxes was seating I guess. Between the seating and the boxes was a table. We trailed through the living room and arrived in the hallway. The hallway wasn't very long but there were 2 doors on the left, 1 straight ahead and 1 on the right. She stopped me at the first door to the left. "You can put him in his bed, his is the furthest one. Come back to the living room after you're done." She said, I nodded and continued my way through Scott's room. His room had blue floor tiles, the walls seemed to be made of real wood but also seemed fake too (aka wood paneling) there was 2 small beds in the room, one in the far corner and another in the corner across from me. I brought him over to the furthest bed, "Sleep tight" I said as I laid my lips on his. I then left the room. As I was heading back to the living, I crossed upon a full length mirror. I almost fainted at what I saw. My body has grown a lot; my face has gotten a lot more defined, my jaw line stood out more, my eyebrows thickened a bit. My nose remained at a perfect fit on my face. I brushed my bleach blonde hair out of my natural blood red eyes. As for the rest of my body, my shoulders have broadened and I somehow gained some muscle throughout that 500 year sleep. My chest and abs were now completely developed. I was built but not to the point where I didn't look good. Even I had an attraction to myself, but at the same time I couldn't believe that I was looking at me. I felt like I was looking at a completely different person. To me I looked "perfect". I snapped myself back to reality and stopped gawking at myself^Å I then continued to the living room. When I walked into the living room, I saw Sarah sitting on the couch with one leg tucked underneath her. "Please, sit. I would like to speak to you." She said calmly. I nodded and sat on the same couch as her but at the other end. "So tell me about yourself." "Ok^Å *sigh*^Å My name is Keellen Wardwind. My younger sister was Kelly Wardwind and my younger brother was Kyle Wardwind. But unfortunately they have all^Å been^Å uhh." My breathing started to get ragged and heavy, my body was in full panic. I felt sick and I needed to throw up. Sarah looked at me curiously and suddenly leapt up and dashed away only to reappear to me, a bowl in hand, just in time. I vomited the nothingness that was within my stomach, having not eaten for a while, but somehow not hungry^Å "Thank you^Å" I said as I looked up at her. She was beautiful; she stood solidly at 5'10", her long dark hair reaching her waist. Her eyes gleamed azure, between her eyes was a thin nose and below those a nice, red pair of lips. She was also very voluptuous and her clothes fitted every curve. "Not a problem, you should see when Scott or Stan when they throw up. They're a complete mess." She stated, bringing a wet cloth to my face. "Stan?" I asked looking confused. "My other brother you haven't met him yet. He, my father and my mother went shopping this morning and I was left to take care of Scott because of his condition." She said seriously," Or did you think him fainting in your arms a normal incident." I stared at her shocked. "You s^Å saw^Å saw^Å the-" I began to stutter. "Well of course, you don't think the window in the garage is just for decoration do you? And it's not like I can leave Scott to overexert him self without being watched, and he needs to be watched secretly because when he feels someone looking at everything he does he gets stressed." She continued. I threw up again; things are getting too tense for me^Å "So in brief, this is what I saw: you appeared half-naked out of nowhere, walked towards the ladder, scared Scott to death, literally, then I saw this blue shine, followed by a bright green flash. By the time I could see again, he was already in your embrace and then he fainted. So do you like my brother Keellen?" She asked. "I don't really know," I answered, she didn't seem satisfied with that so I elaborated. "I mean he's gorgeous, but I don't know him at all and with what he said, it's still so confusing. Then he kissed me... I mean I'm only twelve years old, I don't know any of this stuff." She stared at me in shock. "Is there something on my face?" I asked wiping my face. She shook her head, "No, I'm just shocked; you can easily pass for a nineteen year old. So what year were you born?" She asked "I was born in 1494, but according to Scott its 2006 so he assumed that a time shift has occurred or something." I answered and she looked at me unable to close her mouth. I reached over and closed it for her then she snapped out of her awe. "I think Scott might be right, I mean you showing up and Scott surviving a blow to the head, I think something greater than us is at work here. Maybe you were sent here for a reason." Sarah looked at me with a twinkle in her eye. "Anyway, maybe you could tell me about your life before the weird things started." I looked at her and nodded. I explained to her my daily life of work after my father left then I told her of my mother, brother and sister. But then I stopped when the memory of "yesterday" came back to me and made me break down. NO!!" I screamed as threw my head forward and threw up in the bowl again. I looked up at Sarah, She was looking away and I could see her gulp. She turned back to me. "So have you ever been to school?" She decided to switch the topic to release his attention of the night before. "No, but my parents said that I had an unnatural talent for mathematics and language." I said proudly. She nodded. Would you want to come to our high school next Monday? That's the first day of school. Stan and I will be attending this year; we're in the 12th grade." She smiled. "Sure I'd like that, but what about Scott? Won't he be going?" I asked. She shook her head, took the bowl from me, went to the kitchen and came back a moment later with the bowl emptied. "Scott has stopped attending school after the 8th grade, that's when he got sick. He doesn't have long to live so he's trying to spend every moment making good for my parents, my brother and I. He was diagnosed with meningitis during the summer after the 8th grade and because of that he wasn't allowed to attend the 9th grade, meningitis is contagious, so the school was scared that it would spread to the other classmates. But for some strange reason, the rest of our family is immune to it. A year later when we had the disease under control, he was diagnosed with leukemia which really weakens the immune system and makes the meningitis more effective..." At this point Sarah was starting to tear up. "But somehow throughout all his weak spells and pains he was able to remain fit and strong." I started tearing up as well. "When Scott was in fourth grade my parents signed him up for 3 different martial arts: Karate, Tae Kwon Doe and Taijutsu. He was really happy about joining them because he really likes martial arts, but I could see that they had an ulterior motive to him joining them." She continued. "Ulterior motive?" I asked curiously "Yes, as you can see my brother has an attraction to other males, even in this day in age it's still looked down upon. I was just surprised that they figured it out because it usually starts to show when hormones are induced into the body..." "Uhh... Hormones?" I asked cutting her off. "Oh sorry, you wouldn't know, and I don't know how to explain them to you. Anyway bottom line is that it doesn't show until the age of 12 or 13, therefore grade 6 or 7. So anyway back to Scott. He worked hard in his martial arts and he's right now a certain degree black belt in each martial art." She smiled at me and I turned away. "Umm... Kell... I mean Sarah, could I use the washroom?" I asked feeling the urge to pee. "Hehe, sure it's right down the hall and at the same time I'll show you how to use the shower, then you can wash up. Also if you're tired you can sleep in Stan's bed, it's the other bed in Scott's room." I nodded and walked to the washroom. The washroom was pretty big in itself. The pink tiled walls matched the off-white and pink flower pattern on the floor. On the left side was a counter that took the whole wall length. Above that counter, upon the wall was a very wide mirror. I looked at myself again. Not one flaw, but it doesn't even feel like me, but I'll try to believe it. I then noticed that all my clothes were torn, "I was like this the whole time?" I thought to myself. I noticed then that I was starting to blush. I looked around a bit and found what I was looking for. I quickly closed the door and relieved myself. When I finished, I opened the door and called for Sarah. ******************************************** I stood in my shower and tried to remember what happened the night before. I know I was walking home, and then the barn was on fire, I saw my mom and Kelly bent over on the dinner table with men behind them, then there was Kyle in the back yard. I then killed someone, wow, killing at 12 years old, damn. I remembered being pushed down and a blade drawn... yet I'm still here. There must be a reason why I'm here, there has to be, I know it. "I just don't want anyone else to die," I said to myself. Then I felt it, like twice before. This I decided to let myself go and to let the feeling take me. I found myself bursting out of the washroom and into Scott's room, naked. I went to a sleeping Scott's side and let myself be drained through this energy the suddenly releasing it in a loud yell. I was then overcome with fatigue and blacked out. ********************************** Thank you for reading, and plz give me a shout out if you want more, or not, but whatever, just send me an email just to know your reading or something email is at top... and again thanks for reading
