?Dana’s POV ?
“Follow me” he beckoned and started going towards a direction.
Jason and I looked at each other and followed him.
The rest of our age mate were starring at us as we disappeared with the man.
He took us through a passage that the walls were very high and its seems as if the walls were made of crystal.
“Wow” I wowed as I starred around.
Geez, what such of place is this? I’m sure this is not heaven but what place or planet is this? I kept thinking as we followed the man.
After a long short while he stopped in front of a big door and the door went up by it self.
He stepped in and we followed him in.
There was a man facing what seems like a window there.
He was backing us and he didn’t turn as we entered.
“Sir, they are here” the man that brought us announced.
Its still strange. How did they know that we’re coming?
Who exactly are they? Too many questions kept running through my head without answers.
The man’s office was unexplainable. Its not like an human office tied and decorated.
I just don’t know how to explain all these, there isn’t any model day item here but its just too beautiful.
The man turned and faced us and the one that brought us in bowed and left.
We watched the man as he took slow gentle steps towards us.
The man looks very young but I’m sure his up to 40 years of age.
“Welcome” he said now standing in front of us.
“H..hi sir, please where are we? We’re kind of confused” I let out.
“Yes sir, please just tell us what’s happening, everything seems like a dream to me” Jason added.
The man made a face which seems as if he smiled but I’m not really sure.
He snapped his fingers and a chair rolled and stopped behind him.
Its not just an chair you see, I’ve never seen that kind of chair but its looks as if it was made with metal and gold.
“Wow” a wow escaped my mouth again as he took a sit.
“Sit down” he beckoned on us and we looked back to also found the same type of sit.
We sat down and he cleared his voice.
“You can call me sir and once again welcome to the world of all wishes” he said coyly.
“What do you do here, sir? Can you explain how we got here?”I asked him.
His eyes went to book and I hide it behind me.
“Why are you hiding it? I’m not gonna steal it from you, its yours already, its been yours from the start so even if I take it, it will still return to you eventually” the man explained but it was sounding like he was speaking some foreign language.
“Its mine from the start? But I saw this book two weeks ago, it was floating on the air, how is it mine from the start?” I asked puzzled.
“You can’t know everything now Dana, with time you’ll get to understand and classes will also help you in understanding your powers” he spoke out elegantly.
“Sir, you might wanna start your explanation from the beginning because I’m totally confused” Jason chipped in and he took his eyes to Jason.
“I understand how confused you might be right now Jason, I understand you also wanna get rid of your developing powers and get back home but I’m sorry its just not possible.”
“Here, we teach how to control and make good use of your abilities and you’ll have to start staying here like the others until you have fully learnt how to control it. But if you insist on leaving without learning controls I’m sorry but you will get a lot of people killed with it.”
“And once that happens you have eventually become ev!l as the powers will start demanding for more souls, that’s it, if you mistakenly kill a person you’ll continue doing it for the rest of your lives.”
“But, if you agree and stay here with us and learn control that will be very good.”
“And if you insist on getting rid of your powers then that means you’ll have to die before you get rid of it” he explained.
“But how did it start? Its this book right?” I asked raising the book up and he nodded.
“Yes, that book contains thousands of different powers. There is more of ev!l power in it than good so you’ll have to keep that book well to avoid disasters.”
“And you’re the master of that book, you called for the book in one way or the other” he added.
“Sir? I don’t just understand this last part you added.”
“How am I the master of the book?” I inquired.
He sighed and stood up from the seat.
“You’ll be taught about everything Dana, they’re history and stories to be told. I can’t just finish telling you them today.”
“So, what do you say? Will you like to join us and learn control or you’ll leave?” He questioned.
“Join you? For how long?” Jason questioned.
“It will take at least five years” the man replied and my mouth fell open.
“Fi..five years?” Jason shrieked and got up.
“How can that be?” He asked wide eyes.
“You’ll have to sacrifice it Jason its worth it” the man replied.
“But five years is too long, how can we stay here for five years?” I questioned.
“Okay, to the outside world they’ll count it as five months but its five years here” he replied.
“Wait, this is getting more interesting” I thought and also stood up.
“Can you explain further sir?” I asked.
“No Dana, you’ll have to learn about the rest from your teachers” the man answered.
He got hold of a very big book.
“Are you gonna stay or you’ll leave?”
“Tell me now, once your name is registered you won’t be able to leave until you’ve mastered your powers but if not tell me now.”
“Are you gonna be staying?” He asked again and I gulped and went into deep thoughts.
