Life Unleashed

Heading up to my little cabin. It is a long way, putting music in the car and trying to stay awake. “Rocking to the Oldies”. Bumps and turns along the way. It had to be about midafternoon by now. Pulling into the driveway and seeing my old neighbors. Grabbing my bags and putting my hand on the doorknob. Ready to settle in. Just closed the door. Someone knocked on the door! “What now”. Hi neighbor. {Just saw you pill in} and wanted to let you know you have a light out. Thanks. Have a good evening. Lights were on and I went to put wood in the fireplace. It wasn’t that late so put the kettle on.

Sitting down ready to enjoy a nice cup of coffee and read the newspaper. The lights blew out and lightning flashed. A thunderstorm was brewing and blowing gusts of wind that hit my windows. First night in my cabin was great. It is midafternoon, I finished my morning coffee and it looks like it is going to be a good day for a horseback ride. Heading to the ocean, on my horse, when it jumped up with me on it and was spooked out. Once he settled down, saw what spooked him and the garden snake.

Putting my horse back in the stable, gathering wood then in the cabin and the clouds growing dark winds blowing harder than normal. This is not a normal storm, something is different and I couldn't put my finger on it. Putting the kettle on, adding wood to the fire there was a knock at the door. My old friend from years ago. Wow, talk about a blast from the past and an old friend that I haven't seen in dog's age. Okay enough with reminiscing of the good old days. Can I offer you some coffee or something to eat? Sure I can eat and a cup of coffee would be nice. Have to ask? What brings you to find me here at my cabin.

It has been a long time, thought would check up on you and see how you have been? Doing really well. Was really nice seeing you again. Just then the storm picked up, throwing everything around and then a skeleton hand appeared in thin air. With a message of distress. Then “Jareth”, my old owl appeared with a letter in his beak. It was about evening hours, putting more wood in the firepit and putting the kettle on because the last time “Jareth” we were in sorcery university the head master passed away. Ran to the cabin also. Must be my saving grace in every situation. Don’t get me wrong. I am not the one to run in shame. Just don't want to be the one that causes any problems and just stay out of situations that get me into trouble. One would say; {that I’m a goody to shoes} and that is not me! I would say; {I don’t bother with anyone and that is to say I mind my own business}.

It’s now bedtime. Putting more wood on the fire. Told you about my old “Jareth” but forgot to mention the old friend from Sorcery University his name is Raistlin. Something you need to know about him. {He is tall, has long hair, muscles and his eyes, they are hourglass eyes} and something else he is High/sorcery, his powers are extremely god-like powers. Not saying he is a god, just god-like powers. Speaking about gods, I forgot to say that I am a demigod. That is why I attended Sorcery University. Now my other friends are kind of different like me. Flint, Tasslehoff, Caramon, Golden-feather, Raven-wing and my name is Storm. We are unique or different from what other people would say! As for my friends, well you have a wizard, halfling, half-elf {dark}, archangel {trickster}, snow-Elf and myself. Yes, I said I was a demigod/Druid.

As darkness falls, the fire slowly goes out. Finally sleep is restless now waking up as I did. I saw Raistlin, putting the kettle on, after putting wood in the fire and now he is asking what do I want for breakfast. Just then the whole cabin filled up with fog and a hand reached out grabbing my shoulder. Raistlin rushed over and pushed me out of the way. As he did that there was a knock at the door. Just as I put my hand over the nob it just opened. A puzzled look on both of our faces. Hello. Flint quickly said Hello. As the rest of the gang followed him in. Can we offer you anything to eat? Sure the gang said. It has been a long trip. Well since the whole gang was catching up. Golden-feather said, there is something you all should know.

Someone has Unleashed Life! All eyes went straight to Golden-feather? What do you mean by {Unleashed Life}? Just as that was said. Lightning flashed, the sky changed color from black to now gray and fog grew thick. The winds also changed to a brisk breeze and just then there was a portal dividing worlds. It blew the fire out. Whisking us in and stuck was Raistlin; he was between worlds. We got separated. Flint, Tasslehoff, Caramon went one way and Raven-wing, Golden-feather was stuck in the forgotten realms. Raistlin finally got unstuck and was calling out for me. As for me I was just lost. No words could be heard. The louder that we called out the further we were.

Combined with the power we got together Raistlin and myself Storm. Searching for other friends. There was a bang, Flint, Tasselhoff, Raven-wing, Golden-feather, Caramon we were together once again. Where are we all asked at once. A spooky voice said you're all in Hades territory. Knowing that this place smells familiar, Storm explained. I know it because he is my uncle. Just then a puff of smoke scared Tasselhoff. Then Hades, king of the underworld appeared. Niece pleasant to see you here. Wait, why are you here? As I was explained we were summoned here because someone has wakened {Unleashed Life}! Somehow we ended up here.

Hades pulled me aside and said you will this {sword} it will help here take it and do your best that means something to me. No words that I could say but thanks. In haste we were swept to another dimension. Something felt familiar about this place; it felt like home. Clouds rolled in, thunder and lightning made sounds and now it was near dark time. Since there might be a storm we should set up camp, get some sleep and get some food as well. That night's sleep didn’t come too easily. I know that we have done this before. That we had daydreams. Knew who it could have been and it is because he did this before. Raistlin, {wake up Storm} and Storm said stop. Just had to get your attention. You weren't waking up. The whole gang was looking at me.

Raistlin pulled me aside. Your power has come in again. You remembered that we used to do that when we were in Sorcery University. That was how I brought you back. Why now? Guess you haven’t used or had the need to use your powers. No. Lived a normal life for the past five years. Well that is not the full truth. Was having {Daydreams} four or five days before you showed up. Now this. {Life Unleashed}! My powers have returned. Can anyone tell me what is going on? Just then my friends surrounded me. We can fight this. What happened? {Storm} explained in difficulty because it was still confusing to herself. Just then Storm started daydreaming. My eyes rolled back into my head. Raven-wing chimed in and told Raistlin to go save her! Raistlin said no. Not yet. What are you waiting for? Just then Storm came out of it. Just had a vision if you call it that. A creepy hand appeared out of the smoke. Blew out the fire. Fog surrounded the spot where the creepy hand was and now the ground opened up just took me. Then nothing was there. The campsite was all intact. The fire was going, food was on but no one could eat. Raistlin was day walking, the other gang was preparing and then “Storm” appeared.

All eyes were on me. Too many questions wishing that I could answer. No harm was done to me. I did see what the {Life Unleashed} was. It was nothing and everything! Like day and night. Up and down. Good and evil. Yes and No. Something like that kind of thing. That is what I told my friends. It was now midnight. We all finished eating, putting more wood into the firepit and then Storm started daydream but it was different because now it is bedtime. This was not a normal nightmare. This was seeing into the future and not weird. It was taking me back in time. Nothing was showing anything that told you it was weird. Then there was a cloud of clouds standing in the center of {Life Unleashed}. You should have a better name than that. No words were heard. Just a reading of the minds. So you can only speak telekinesis. Exactly.

Just as I was communicating, “Raistlin” broke through the psychic connections and pulled me out of the connection. What did you do? I asked Raistlin. That is not an apology. Well, should I? What do you mean Storm. Storm explained, just as I got some communication and was to communicate back “Raistlin” pulled me out. Just before time changed once again. Before that happened I figured what was going on. This is why? Wolf pack was hunting as vampires were feeding and the scenery changed once again. Thunder and lightning shattered through the sky. Why is scenery changing? Standing in this time trap and just figured out what is going on. Every world is changing because {Life Unleashed} has been awakened.

We were back in the cabin. Putting the kettle on. Making food and making sure that there was wood in the firepit. The gang was slowly waking now. The time was mid-morning and we could finally talk about everything. We all were drinking morning coffee. Storm broke the silence. With her words and her experiences. All was revealed about my daydreams and all that I am as “demigod and Druid”. Now that my secrets are out. My friends are already known and if they are ready to keep my trust. Then it happened once again. My eyes closed, my breathing changed and my body got cold. Was on another daydream. Raistlin jumped into the daydream. This was different. It took us to an old path, a path from what I don’t want to take and closed that door. It was different because now that “Life Unleashed” had something to do with me. A door just opened has {nothing to do with you} a creepy voice interrupted. You want the truth why you feel that you woke me? It is not the truth you seek. You seek out what has “Unleashed Life”. Unearthly shadows started to rear ghostly heads. Raistlin said wake now. Sitting back down, because I was sitting back in my cabin and once again my friends are staring at me.

The cabin was warm. It was almost midnight. The sky changed from black to purple and fog creeped in making everyone very sleepy. All of us are trapped in this quietness and darkness settled in. Covered in darkness but I wasn’t alone. The gang was standing in front of me and this time was different. Darkness settled in. Putting more wood into the fire. Adding water to the kettle and settling in for the night. Living day by day since you were born I made a promise and since my double stroke things have changed. I’m not the same person. That is why I write to put my pain to rest. My Life has been Unleashed no more hiding it is time to put it to rest and that is my story about my Life Unleashed.

It is very short to say and this how I want it to be. To Life is to Die. Putting the wood on the fireplace, making myself a coffee and snuggling by the fireplace as I put everything to bed. For now I will live and think about tomorrow when it comes. So to all I say thank you for just being you. As for my friends, don't think that I have been forgotten all that you have done for me and I can live life by being free.
