Chapter 2: A Vision or a Nightmare

A deep sigh escaped Vather's lips as he slowly sat up from his bed, looking at the floor which appeared to have been made from some jade blue tiles. His face was reflected on it as his hand slowly reached for his forehead.

He could feel the crystal being present there from the first time he could remember.He could fell it pulsing with green light every now and then like a heartbeat. That was the only thing that stopped his soul from collapsing from the level of power revealed in the nightmares.

Standing up from the bed,he stood at a height of 1.8 metres.His naked body showing though thin, well proportioned body with well developed muscles.He slowly made his way to the bathroom.

25 minutes later

A young man in a white long armed sleeve shirt and trousers slowly descended the jade blue steps.His golden hair fluttered, moving with the rhythm with which his legs touched the steps.

"How was your sleep today, birthday boy?". Looking straight forward, his golden blue eyes looked at the dark eyes of a man who appeared to be in his early 40's.Dressed in a dark red battlesuit, he stood there all thirty-six teeth wide opened. Even the sun seem to be favouring his smile as rays of light were reflected from his sparkling white teeth.

"It was a peaceful night father" Vather said slowly moving towards the dining table.

"A peaceful night might not mean a peaceful sleep, my son. Did it appear to you again"

"What appeared" Vather asked feigning ignorance with the blank look in his face.

" I mean the vision,did it appear to you again" his father asked once more as he sat opposite him while digging mouthful of foods in his mouth.

"Yes, and it's not a vision dad, it's a nightmare"

"I'm sorry, thinking today is your seventeenth birthday, it will release you off it's shackles for today,but guess I was wrong." Presumably his father was well aware of the battles that usually happens in Vather's dream and he was powerless to do anything about it at as it continuously haunted him since his birth.

"It's nothing to worry about dad, it's just a nightmare, still not enough to take away my life".Vather grinned.

An awkward silence ensued between the two as his father finished three plates of meats before wiping off his oil stained mouth.

"First I will like to congratulate you for clocking seventeen today.Wish you more happy years to come. And here, you can access the fourth space now". A dark coloured rusty key was giving to him as Vather grabbed hold of it, a slight smile tearing it's way out on his lips.

"You know they'll be arriving tomorrow morning" his father said his voice deepening with alarm.

" I know"

"Then prepare well son.Make sure to say goodbye to your precious flowers and babbling brooks,as you might not see them again in a long while_"

"Or I might not see them again forever ". Vather said cutting his father short. They both looked at each other's eyes with Vather's father eyes revealing sadness while Vather's eyes revealed only blankness.

A loud laugh rang out in the house as Vather's father stood on his feet.A hand clamped on Vather's shoulder shaking him with so much force he could almost feel his stomach turning.

"That's my son. Even when you know you might not arrive again, not a single fear could be seen. That was my first step towards being a supreme commander. One which I took only after two years in the military.But you know every soldier you see out there is a hundred other lives saved. Do not think it's not worth it my son", His father said removing his hands from his shoulders.

"But not even the military will be able to bear the wrath of the only son of the supreme commander dying, you know?"

Vather's pupils constricted as he could swear he saw the air around his father quivered for a second as if suddenly displaced by some unknown force.

"Make sure to use the key well, young commander."His father's voice moving towards the exit, his voice trailing behind him.

Moving towards the exit,he could see a dark red levitating car outside the park. It was modeled after the new EBT14 model,known for their ability to move a hundred times the speed of sound while also being able to travel out of space.

Two guard stood outside the park with one opening the back seat's door and entered with his father while the other moved towards the driving seat.

The car slowly moved higher up harmless purple wave of energy emerging from beneath it. Looking through the glass he could see his father clenching his fist and raised it up while giving him a smile. Vather clenched his fight also and only managed to say the word "goodbye " before the car tore through the air with a speed that almost rival a bullet's.

To Vather it was like the car just disappeared into the sky;the only sign of its existence was the slowly fading purple energy.

Vather stood there alone his cloth flapping loudly to the erratically blowing wind. He slowly put down his clenched fist and open it revealing an old rusty key. A smile bloomed on his face so wide as it extended to his ear.

"Finally".
