The Blue Rock Enter The World Arc
Part Two
A Whole New World
I could not tell you just how long I hid there, I soon started
to lose track of time. I was about to come out of my hiding place
until I spotted that somehow there was a darkened blue glow around
me. Frowning I looked around, wondering where the glow came from
until my eyes dropped to the door and spotted that it was coming from
there. Curiously, the light bent in a swirly pattern like stardust in
a nebular.
I spotted that there were words above the door, again in Latin;
Haeream illud devorat,
Quibus tangere ...
“'Enchanted it devours, those who touch...'?” I said out
loud.
Wonder what that means...I
thought as I took one step after another before I knew it I felt my
hand grip something and my wrist twisted. I moved past the door
frame. I felt my feet rest on a metal step on a spiralling staircase.
The blue light seemed to become brighter and brighter the further
down the staircase I descended. I could see that the staircase was a
blue metal and as my hand slid down the bannister I could feel it
changing under my finger tips, soon I was not feeling metal at all,
but crystal.
When I was at the bottom I was greeted with a crystal blue door
that seemed to be carved like wood, even had the make up as it. The
bricks were also made of the same blue crystal as the door. Then I
looked in the centre of the door next to the door nob and there was
a plaque and on it was yet another message in Latin; 'Horruit
fraudibus irretitus, Fugit falsa in terra …' but before I could
translate it in my head I was passed through the door.
“Aqua?!” I heard Miss Blue call. I was about to shout but my
mouth could not move and soon I was closing the door. Then the edges
glowed blue and sealed itself up with the arching door frame! I was
trapped and I knew it, but I felt an unnatural frightful peace as I
turned around and walked down a blue crystal hall to another door
with another plaque with another Latin message on it; Manere
aeternum; In stellam ..
I walked past the door and found myself in a small room filled
with the blue crystal where the blue light had originated from. I
could see the the swirls were thickening and I felt my body move
closer and closer to an uneven and jagged blue rock. My whole body
was being pulled to the rock.
“Aqua...” I heard Mrs Blue call. I wanted to cry out but my
mouth again was unmoving as the panic broke the piece that I was
feeling.
HELP! I'm here! Please find me! PLEASE! What is happening?
What is happening? Why can't I scream out! WHY CAN'T I?
I could hear the beat of my heart in my ear and silenced screams
choked at my throat. I could see my vision became like water. I could
feel myself shaking as the swirls wrapped themselves around me and
forced my shaking hand to the surface of the rock. Then the rock
started growing around my hand. I tried to pull it out as the growth
raced up my arm.
What
is this? What is happening? I'm gonna die! I was evacuated to go to a
safe place and I'm gonna die in this 'safe place'! What was mom
thinking?
Soon my entire arm was in the blue rock and then it spread
across my body! I could not breathe and my rapid breathing was doing
nothing to help me. Soon I was wheezing and coughing as the rest of
my body became cocooned in the rock and my body glowed like a spark
in an electric light bulb I had to close my eyes.
Then I felt myself falling. I could breathe. Light was blinding
my closed eyes. I dared to open them again and white greeted my eyes.
I looked down and found that I was in mid air and my hair was in the
air. I felt a breeze greet my face as I looked at a dot in the
horizon. I could see it getting bigger and bigger and soon it dawned
on me; I was falling!
My jaw opened as I screamed at the top of my lungs. Then I
realised that I was free to move again! I could control myself again!
I then started to laugh as I realized that if I was falling then I
was going to die the moment that I was to collide with the surface of
where I was falling to. I was now free and I was going to die! How
very absurd!
I then saw the dot was now a big sphere and I felt my falling
becoming slower and slower. Then I found myself not colliding with
the ground beneath my feet but being rested on it, like a mother
placing down her child.
Found myself placing my hand on grass as I sat up. Strange, I
don't remember there being grass here before... I looked down as
I gazed at the grass. I had to stroke it several times, just to see
if it was real. How is this happening? No, what is happening?
Where am I? I wondered as I smoothly climbed to my feet, my jaw
dropping at the vastness of this new world!
“'Dorothy we are not in Kansas any more'!”
