Excerpt #3
Nathanael
That night she
went to bed without any answers. The night is warm, at least that’s what the
box called a ‘Television’ announced this morning. A breeze brings with it a
different scent. One he’s not familiar with yet. Sera has been asleep for a
while now. The only thing to keep him company is the sound of the woods
surrounding her house. A cricket chirps, and the wind rustles between the
leaves.
Nathanael turns
away, swinging his legs onto the floor. The room is quiet as he glides over to
her bedside. The gentle curve of her cheek is calm, relaxed even. Maybe this is
all in his head. Maybe this is normal for Earth.
Just then, her
brows furrow in her sleep—her head flinging to the side. Maybe not. Movement
above his head draws his attention. The
shadows from the tree branches are growing, stretching across the ceiling
closer and closer to the bed. His arms fling outward preparing for an attack.
The shadows elongate farther, creeping like fingers reaching for her.
Something is
strange, yet he can sense no evil around. What is going on? Sera whines in her
sleep, tossing and turning now. Not having anything else to do, Nathanael
reaches out for her. His hand touches her shoulder and Sera stops struggling;
her face peaceful again. A light outside the window causes the shadows to
slowly dissipate. The light grows brighter and brighter. Curiously, Nathanael
approaches the window.
Lampyridae, or
lightening bugs as Sera calls them, have begun to flock to her window. They
float in a growing swarm suspended in the warm winter air.
Suddenly, Sera
jumps halfway up in bed. The spell breaks, causing them to scatter. Her eyes
dart around the room. With a sigh, she rolls over clutching her blanket against
her chest.
The night
returns to normal. After a few minutes, Sera’s breathing evens out. Nathanael
wanders over to her bed again. She stopped at the touch of his hand. This keeps
getting even more curious. He attempts to touch her again.
Her skin is
warm, too warm, feverish for a human. She doesn’t look uncomfortable though;
her sleep even seems peaceful. These things only happen when she is asleep.
This girl has no idea she’s even doing this. The Lord has placed him here for a
reason. He finally understands his purpose, to dissipate the cloud of mystery
surrounding the fiery red headed dreamer.
