Chapter 4 - Reality of the Nightmare.

I fell a sense of loneliness around me.

Its dark, completely dark.

I am felling cold, what is going on?

I fell like I have experienced it once, but i don't remember when and where.

I am floating, but why?

Is this what we call Nightmare.

Cliffdon just floats and wonders around. He can't open is mouth and he can't move. Why? There is no answer for it.

The surrounding is completely dark and black, the place is gloomy and all he can see is darkness around him. Why is it happening again. He thinks.

My head is spinning, it hurts. Dammit!! It's a huge pain in the ass.

Why is it always just happening to me. He thinks. The darkness swallows him and black smoke starts to form.

The smoke starts devouring his body, from his head to his legs. He can't move, all he can to is stay calm.

Suddenly he hears a voice from behind. He looks, two people of opposite genders were standing. Who are they? He questions.

Are they my parents.

Or

They are his parents.

They are calling me, should I go? Is this a dream or an illusion.

Father, Mother. Cliffdon says.

As he reaches near his parents for a hug, they suddenly disappear. What's going on? Where are they? He questions.

Suddenly a huge sound comes from behind. He turns. A huge black smoky figure appears.

The figure suddenly opens its mouth and says,

"Good morning Cliffdon, it's a pleasure to meet you."

And after that everything goes black.

"Ah...." Cliffdon opens his eyes.

He looks, it's morning. He wakes up from his bed. "What a crazy dream." He says.

He stands up and comes out from his room and goes straight to the washroom.

He brushes his teeth, washes his face an comes out.

His sister is arranging breakfast on the table as Cliffdon comes out.

"You are up early today.'' Sara says.

"Yeah, it's good to wake up early." Cliffdon replies.

Sara with curiosity asks, "I am shocked that you are waking up early this days."

"You always used to sleep for hours on morning."

Cliffdon cough with suprise and says, "umm.. I decided to wake up early, so that I would stay healthy."

"Um that's suspicious." As Sara keeps her tea on the table.

Sara looks at the watch, it was almost time for her to go to school. She leaves her breakfast behind, takes her hand bag, says goodbye and then leaves.

Cliffdon slowly finishes his breakfast. It has been one week since he has changed his bodies.

Nothing suspicious has happened till now. Him and his sister are living quiet a normal life.

Cliffdon washes all the plates and then cleans his room, as he finishes his work he remembers something. Actually his sister told him that they were finished with potatoes, so she told him to buy it from the market.

He takes his wallet changes his clothes and heads out.

He is walking through the heavy streets of Camdon.

The city is very lively today as the market is open. The market always opens once a week. So the city is very crowded today.

Cliffdon reaches the marked. He is stunned, as hundreds and hundreds of people were there. People were squeezing their ways and shop owners were shouting.

Cliffdon somehow manages to squeeze his away and reaches the vegetable seller. He takes one kilograms of potatoes and puts it inside his jute bag. He now squeezes his way out and as he comes out from the heavy crowd, boom!! He hits someone. "Ouch!"

"I am really sorry." Cliffdon says as he massages his head with his right hand.

"It's ok, it was my fault anyway." It was a woman's voice.

She is picking up her grocery from the floor.

She is wearing a complete white dress covering her legs and her face. Her eyes can't be seen, but half of her face is exposed.

"Wait I'll help you." Cliffdon starts picking up the fallen groceries. "It's ok you don't need to do this." She looks at me.

"No..no it's fine.." Cliffdon becomes completely silent.

The woman also looks at him with a shocked face.

What is happening.. why am I felling scared all of a sudden. I am shacking, what's going on. Cliffdon is shivering, he looks scared as he looks at the woman.

The woman suddenly gives him a very creepy smile, It gives Cliffdon a chill on his spine.

Cliffdon suddenly drops the fallen groceries on the floor. "Oh my, you dropped it." The woman says.

Cliffdon scared, suddenly stands up and says, "I am really sorry but I have to go somewhere so I'll leave." and after that he starts running. Cliffdon is running as fast as he can, he is hitting on people as he runs. He could hear footsteps from behind, but how comes, he thinks. Lots of people are walking but he could hear the one footstep coming from behind. "What the hell!" Cliffdon thinks.

The footsteps are becoming louder and louder and he could hear it coming closer to him. Cliffdon is panicking, he just runs.

Finally he takes a small path, he squeezes his way out and reaches a place.

It was a slum area located between the large buildings of the city.

He wastes no time and trys to find a place to hide.

Finally after searching for a while he finds a small house which looked like a shop. He goes inside.

He wonders around and finally realizes that it was a library as lots of books were gathered on shelves .

He starts looking at the books walking around the library. As he wonders he finds a book intresting so he takes it out. The books title was intresting as it said,

"The secrets of the five witches."

As he looks at the book he is suddenly tapped by someone on his shoulder.

Cliffdon panics and turns.

It was an short old man with white beard standing behind me. He says,

"Are you hear to read a book young man?"

Cliffdon shock with the sudden encounter says, "Oh! I am sorry I just got lost and by mistake I came here."

The old man replies, "It's ok, if you came here you can atleast read some books and go." The old man leaves.

Cliffdon curious about the book sits down and starts reading. As he reads the book, he becomes completely attached to it, the book was a religious summary.

The book was like this,

Many years ago God created the world and he called it the Sar, which meant the world of the God. He created two more planets heir which gave light during day and meir which gave light during night. Along with that he also created five angles for the protection of the world.

First angel was named Alice also known as the angle of Pride.

Second was named skara also known as the angle of Wrath.

Thirth was named mile also known as the angles of Lust.

Fourth was named lime also known as the angle of death.

and at last.

Fifth was named ware also know as the angle of nature.

They were given the name five protectors of the world.

Everything was going fine, people were living a happy life but all of a sudden the God disappears.

After that, the five angles started fighting as they wanted to be the next God. The world goes into a deep depression as the angles brought distriction. But one day a hero comes and saves the people from the darkness. The five angles were locked down inside their own illusion world, and people started living a normal life.

After reading the book Cliffdon becomes very fond of it. He wanted to read the more but it was getting late so he decides to go back home.

As he is about to leave the same old man comes and says, " Did you like the book?"

"Yeah, it was great I liked it.'' Cliffdon says.

"Now I would leave."

"Ok, see you later." The man smiles at him.

Cliffdon curious says, "uhh.. ok." After that he leaves.

Cliffdon reaches his home, goes to his room and sits on the chair.

He starts thinking, is the story about the witch related to me coming to this world?

As he thinks, he hears something.

Tap! Tap! Tap!

Someone was tapping on the door he goes to check, and as he opens the door, two fine looking gentlemen were standing. They were wearing full black dress with top hat on their heads.

"Uh.. who could you be." Cliffdon asks.

The man replies,

"I am Inspector Hangson from the secret police, and we are here to inspect your room."
