"Girl whatever, just letting you know I made it. bout to take a nap so call me later or something, peace." She informed Eani before banging the line. The young girl shrugged and snuggled underneath her covers.It was her birthday but sleep was life. She was celebrating something different though, after 3 years of constant doctors visits the "cloud" on her brain was finally gone and she could live her life like a normal kid and try out for the highschool dance team with her bestfriend.

Suddenly She was standing in the middle of a dimly lit hallway."Yoo, where the hell am I?!" Eani called out, no one answered. Continuing up the hall, she tried to be as quiet as possible. Running her hand along the wall she felt some writing making her take a glance. "This cant be real." She breathed.

"No! I will not be defeated!" She heard a manly but woman like voice yell out. She crept along the wall and followed it. Eani hurried in the room when the woman had her back turned and hid behind a big stone looking thing. "I've loved them all and look where that got me!" The woan sobbed. Eani watched on sadly, tears pooling in her own eyes. She didn't know if the woman could see her so she stayed down, adjusting her foot Eani mentally cursed when a pebble fell.
"Who goes there?" The woman yelled out and the young girl gasped, it was Cleopatra the woman who she studied and read about in textsbooks standing right before her looking like Rihanna. "Show yourself!" She commanded and Eani slowly inched from behind the stone. Squinting Cleopatra gave her a look. "Who are you, where do you come from? weird looking girl." She asked rudely.

"Uhh-I'm Eani? from Brooklyn." The girl nodded and Cleopatra still frowned her face up. Gunfire and yelling could be heard getting closer. "No time for that! You get yourself on out of here!" She bellowed but her feet stayed put in fear. Cleopatra eyed Eani for a second then rolled her eyes turning the other way just slitting her neck as the door got bust down.
Covering her mouth, a shaking Eani backed away. "WHAT THE FUCK!" She cursed, something the girl never did. Running back the way she came, she seen a telephone booth taking her chances Eani hopped in. The troops could be seen following her but she blasted off just in time.
Sitting up in the bed, She was breathing heavily. "I don't want to do that ever again." E mumbled looking at the time. It was 10p.m. 7 hours after she came home from school but it was no way Eani was gone for that long. She didn't even get to see her mom before work.
Getting up from the bed she went down stairs, smelling seafood. In the kitchen her mom had set up balloons and cooked her favorite food, lobster macaroni with a cookie cake for dessert. "I love you mom." Shs smiled mumbling to herself. Fixing herself a big bowl she put it in the microwave and decided to phone Sisi. "Yerrrr." Her bother answered , rolling her eyes she asked for Sierra.
"Hey bestieee!" Sisi squealed making Eani smile.
"I had the freakiest dream!" Eani exclaimed getting her bowl out the microwave.
"What happened?" Her bestfriend asked, genuinely interested. Listen to E smack on her food for a second, she took a deep breath.
"Okay, so. Got off the phone with you right? So then I close my eyes for nap but I end up in the middle of a pyramid? Cleopatra was there and I watched her kill herself, the battle could be heard outside and everything. It felt sooooo real! I had to run from soliders and hop in this telephone booth that blasted me back here." Eani explained the details of her dream and her friend laughed. "What?"
"Nothing just, thats one crazy dream."
"I don't know Si, I could touch stuff and make stuff fall. It was real! Cleopatra seen me. " Eani explained trying to get Sierra to explain.
"Didn't y'all talk about that in Sandorval's class? That's probably why, it's fresh on your mind." Sierra pleaded.
"Yeah, you probably right. Catch you tomorrow Si." She mumbled still not convinced.
"Later." They both hung up while Eani continued eating her food. She was halfway done when a boom sounded and a couple appeared in the middle of the room. "Uh, Who are y'all?" She asked looking up at the man and woman from her bowl.
"We are, Titi and Zay. Your guides on this journey, Eric had the gift and so do you, consider yourself lucky." Titi nodded. Raising a brow, she ate some more food. "What gift? I'm not that talented and What does my dad have to d with this?." Eani shrugged and Zay pointed.
"You are more talented than you believe. You posses the power to do the impossible." He spoke properly neglecting her second question. "Okay... and that is?" She asked again.
"You can time travel! There! This is a great gift but it is also very dangerous. It is alot you must learn so here." Titi handed her a big book. "Don't read it til the time is right. You will know when." She winked.
"Til then, watch your back Eani with the power you posses comes alot of enemies." Zay spoke and then they poofed away. "What the HELLL is going on today?" Eani yelled throwing a mini tantrum.
