...

My eyes reflect the still colors of blue and yellow as the sun fills the world with its warmth that sends shivers down to my core. Careful as ever, I run my hands over the smoothly edged rock that I lie on. I reach down, and with the tip of my fingers touch the long green grass that seems to reach up into the world. My smile dies as time slows and a figure, the color of black, runs towards me. I perk up, but lose my balance and suddenly I'm falling into the world of pitch-black darkness, lost in the unknown.

I scream vociferously. Filled with hope that someone somewhere can hear me.

"Hey," a gentle voice shouts.

The world stops spinning. I look into the distance as a shape of a young male appears before my sudden eyes. He walks towards me and I feel warmth as if he can bring back the light that I've been longing for.

"It's going to be okay, I got you."

I reach out as far as I can but as soon as I feel the closeness, I am shifted back into my bed.

I sit up, running my hands through my long black hair. I sigh, getting up a moment later. I grab my holowatch from the dresser and walk over to the only bathroom in the house.

"Great," I state sarcastically, grabbing onto the sheer smooth counter as to support my sleepless body.

I look up, catching dark charcoal eyes staring deep into my soul. "To think they will change in a few days."

With a sigh of uncertainty for what awaits me, I make my way over to the dining room.

"Clober!" My smile widens as a beautiful tiny face stands before me. I extend my arms for the amazing creature to envelop me.

"Good morning my beautiful angel."

I feel her warmth leave me as she backs away.

"Are you going to stay with me today?" Her beautiful innocent brown eyes stare back at me.

I knowingly ruffle her brown curls.

"Chloe you know your aunt has to go to school today and you have to see your new school!" We giggle as my sister's voice bounces off the walls from her position in the dining room.

Grabbing her tiny waist, I pick her up. Carrying her to the dining room counter. I tap her nose as I set her down and she grins, sticking her tongue out at me.

"Do you remember what time Dromail gets here today?"

I shrug, strolling over to the window where the color of blue beautifully reflects off the dark beige walls. I hug my sister's soft waist, placing my head gently on her shoulder.

I look out into the distance as I see a yellow squared metal box flying clear through the moonlight. It hovers over the town till it reaches our window.

"Hey, Dromail." I grab the purple box from its legs. Its eyes pop out and its lights blink in an indication that it has scanned us and is certain that we are in fact who it's for.

"Hello Clover Rose Hampshire, hello Yesenia Gem Ace Hampshire, and hello Chloe Ace Hampshire."

I smile as everyone else groans. Dromail picks up air and sets off into the foreseeing oblivion.

I sit on a stool, opening the box ever so slightly.

Chloe jumps up in joy, "Yay food!"

I laugh, grabbing the container with her name on it. She scans her fingerprint and opens it to find a pancake topped with fruit, a tiny cup of syrup, and a quarter of a cup of orange juice. She bounces as she starts eating.
