The Rise Of The Saviour - 51 Into the future
That weird ringing sound made Morpheous wake up from a deep slumber that he was in. He slowly opened his eyes and felt a throbbing pain in his thigh. A pain that he was quite familiar with. But before he could wince, the alarm clock rang again.
“Tee-Tee-Tee-Tic”
“Tee-Tee-Tee-Tic”
He craned his neck and turned to see from where that the noise was coming from and found a round metal orb sort of a thing that was placed on a ledge next to his cot, vibrating on its own. It had a weird script written on it and it made a sound of its own.
With his eyes still groggy and his thigh in pain, he threw the orb away and clenched onto his thigh. He shut his eyes tight and grunted.
“Gaaahhhh…..”
After letting out a muffled grunt of pain, he slightly opened his eyes and looked around.
Everything looked strange. The cot that he was lying on was one of the most comfortable ones that he had ever slept on. The thick sheet that was draped on him looked blissfully white. Everything looked clean and smelled nice and was way different from that of his village.
The sun was slowly climbing up in the sky and he could see the light streaming through the finest sheer curtains that he had ever seen in his life. The rays of light bounced from the surface of the glass but scintillated the entire room.
But then something struck him.
The window was closed but still, he could feel the air circulating around and it was then that he looked up and got the shock of his life. A weapon was swirling on top of his head at full speed and he instantaneously got down from the cot all alarmed.
And the moment his feet landed on the rug underneath, his fingers squirmed as it was the softest rug that his legs had ever felt. He looked down and saw the squeaky clean carpet underneath but before he got a fraction of a second to admire it, the entire room was suddenly illuminated.
He covered his eyes in a response to stimuli and then slowly opened them to see two orbs of glass, placed on the wall, illuminating the entire room.
The room looked different, the objects in the room looked different. The chairs and tables looked different. It looked as if he had entered the room of some royal prince who had everything magical placed inside.
Standing as far away from the rotating weapon above, he tried to lean on the wall and lifted the cloth on his leg. A necrotic pattern had spread on his leg which was periodically pulsating, radiating pain all around. He was unable to understand what had happened.
Last that he remembered was that he was fighting with Nubeous and then suddenly he recollected the last scene before he got detached. Damianos, Eva, and Nicholas had all entered inside the tornado along with Balthazaar.
‘Eva’
‘My Eva’
He muttered but then again the alarm clock rang.
“Tee-Tee-Tee-Tic”
“Tee-Tee-Tee-Tic”
“Oh! for heaven’s sake can someone just turn the damn thing off!” came a voice from outside of the door and it startled Morpheous because he had never heard that voice. It was an unfamiliar voice with a weird tone.
And before he could even pick the metal orb that he had thrown away to silence it, the door was flung open.
“Dude seriously! I am trying to sleep here. It’s Saturday for God’s sake.”
And thus Morpheous saw the first human from earth.
His hair was short and spiked up and he was wearing a weird garment which only covered his genitals. He had a strange object hanging around his neck and something similar was around his wrist too.
“Who are you? You shall reveal your identity in front of me now. Where are we? Where am I? Is it the kingdom?”
“Heh… Heh…Heh…Heh… Jeez, dude. I guess you are still high. Sleep some more and you will be all right. I will drive you later to your place. Peace out,” that human said and showed him his index and ring finger and turned back.
“Tee-Tee-Tee-Tic”
“Tee-Tee-Tee-Tic”
“Dudeee…. Snooze it will you? Christ these people,” he muttered and came close to him and took the silver orb from his hand and pushed a metal on the backside of the orb and …
“Tee-Tee-”
The alarm clock stopped buzzing.
“Just sleep. You look totally stoned!” the human said and started walking towards the door.
No matter how hard Morpheous tried to comprehend his words, he could not understand half of what he said. He spoke his language but the way he spoke, the words he spoke were completely alien to him.
So he hesitated at first but then asked, “I beg of you, but I need to know where I am. My sister and my friend, their lives are in danger. I need to find them. I need to go back to Ambracia. I need to fight back with Nubeous.”
“Huh! Still living your dream, aren’t you? But yeah, you said you have a sister right?”
“Yes,” replied Morpheous.
“About, yea tall?” asked the human holding his hand at his chest height.
“Yes, have you seen her?” he asked eagerly.
“Oh yeah! She is sleeping in the nursery with my mom. Last night she had fever and stuff so my mom was taking care of her. So don’t worry about her as my mom is a doctor. Dude last night Halloween party was some crazy shit,” he said.
“What happened last night?” asked Morpheous.
“Well, I have no idea. My parents found you lying unconscious next to our pool. Probably they thought of you as my college friend and took you in. So you are here.”
“What about my sister?” asked Morpheous.
“She was stoned in our garden. Poor thing. I guess some dude must have given her weed or shit. She was sick so mom took care of her. Neither of you had a phone on you so we couldn’t…”
“Gaaahhhh….”
Grunted Mopheous as the pain in his leg seared again. He winced and held on to his leg.
“You ok dude?” that human asked.
“I am … I am fine. My name isn’t dude. My name is Morpheous. Lord Morpheous. Can you take me to my sister?”
The human chuckled and said,
“That’s some James Bond shit that you have picked up man! Anyways follow me. By the way, my name is Daniel, but friends call me Dan. ”
Morpheous listened to him babbling incomprehensible stuff and then looked around the room again. He then looked up at the fan suspiciously before following Daniel. As he crossed the door the illuminating orbs turned off on their own.
But suddenly Daniel turned back and said,
“Hey, the ceiling fan in the room isn’t automated yet. Do you mind switching it off, else my mom would flip.”
“I shall do what?”
