This place is different, peculiar, beautiful, and unexplainable. Standing on a yellow green grassland, there is a building. An ancient building, fascinated by the design.

I think it is a city or a Temple. Wide grassland, no trees but there are so many birds. Any species of every bird I know such as peacocks, toucans, parrots, doves, and other colourful birds roamed the yellow grass. How they survived if there's nothing but grass?

I walked through the building and those rare birds humming and mostly chirping. A Peacock's tail stood up when I make contact with it. Also this place is so windy, so group of birds are flying to the sky, enjoying it. The sky were perfectly shaped of omnibus white clouds and lightest shade of blue. The sun was striking at me. Sunkissed. Middle in the blue sky.

Staring at the ancient but lovesome facade of the temple, an Aztec design made of yellow sandstone, and the wall stone were grown some vines and algae like the sun whispered behind the green grass. There is a large sandstone sign carved the name of the temple and it was written in many language I know:

Veil's Temple of Memories

Who is Veil? or What is it?

Opening the big door of the temple, a large dust bursted out from the inside like no one's been here. An abandoned temple. The torches were off and seen some skull of birds I did mentioned and human skulls scattered everywhere. Literally. Also thick dust visible everywhere: columns, floor, and wall. Cobwebs are also visible in the high part of the temple, also insects are the only occupants of the temple. The ceiling were made of thick green foliage and it's very amazing, no wonder why insects occupied the temple.

In a flash of my curiosity, I looked around and there is nothing special but unlit torches everywhere.

What am I doing here? If there's no special or interesting stuff around here. Roaming around the temple I recognize some stuff like circle mirror glass in a wall, a red fruit on the leaves of foliage, and well curved Corinthian-like columns.

Someone is coming from the entrance of the temple.

So I hide one of the back of a thick column. Only seeing the person's shadow, when its coming closer, I can see the person. Its wearing very dark robe as the night sky. Walking in a meek manner. When the person take out its black robe. A woman, all I can see is her literally glowing hair of gold.

She is beautiful.

While looking around, she twist her face through me. I can see her face. A lovesome face. I don't know what's her ethnicity, race, or age, and you will not know. She looks like a Goddess.

Her hair perfectly brushed to perfection, the color of bright gold sparkles like glitters, and so long it could reached her curly hair to her waist. Her skin's glowing as the sunshine when met the clouds in the morning, her eyes were green as leaves of sunflower.

She studied around. Still hiding behind these thick columns I hope she do not see me and I can see her, what she's doing? She touched the biggest unlit torch, in the same instance the dead torch lit up. Light up objects in one touch.

That's amazing as hell.

I heard her voice, it was lovely like a sweet mother taking her child to sleep by a lullabies. I think she's finding someone.

"Where are you Veil?" she asked herself. And she walks through the columns where I was hidden. I hide well in these thick columns so she will not see me, I hope. I jumped on another column behind the last column, I think she don't see me. I was hidden good.

"Veil, why you abandoned your temple and your school?" she asked herself again. She sat on the floor, her one hand touching a column, crying silently. I could help her but what if she's evil? She can kill me by one touch!

She is standing, still crying, and walking around the temple. So I jumped every column one by one, avoiding her.

She's continue to walk around and I am tired to move in every column available in the temple.

The birds outside the temple came inside. And these birds passed the lady. She pets one of them, I think she is kind. Still hiding one of the columns.

Staring at the foliage ceiling of the temple, and my prays hopes up, jumps up. Hope I am fine after this, I am just a kid. I don't want any danger. And as a student safety is not an achievement, it's responsibility. My mind tackled whether the lady is good or evil.

A bird, an adult peacock staring at me. "Shit" I said to myself, quietly. I stay quiet, and the peacock coming closer to me. I make hush gesture. I stepped backwards, and this is the moment, the peacock screams the hell out.

"Fuck!" I shouted.

I run fast and leave the temple. I heard the lady's voice "Wait!" shouted. I ran outside until I got through the yellow green grassland.

Take a last glance at the temple. I can still see her, her black robe and her glowing hair.

That's only recall of my dream when I was only ten years old. I have these weird dreams back then, now I am six years later when I dreamed about the mysterious temple. Still now, questioning these events.

Who is she?

What the hell is that?

It's a very clear dream and every creature talk to you and I can not control these, like they were fixed dreams.

If I dreamed it about again, I could help the crying lady.

OOO

Four winters passed, after my mysterious dream, within these years many devastation brought by unknown to Earth. Terrible disasters.

Once I opened my phone to check news or others, the headline is terrible: A Huge Tornado Hits Russia. News spread out Japan like a wildfire. Thousand people are dead. And the cause of the disaster is complete unknown. Unexplainable. Unimaginable.

Months are running, another disaster brought to the world. The closest point of our planet to the sun is called Aphelion, but this is different. Our planet surpassed the aphelion point which brought dry land and increase water shortage. Many people died from diseases. The abnormal aphelion is still unexplainable.

More problem and calamities brought to the world like famine, paucity of supply, and more which bringing poverty of the people. Especially to the countries that are poorly governance.

After these signs, Japan became strict in such issues like deforestation, global warming, and caring environment. If we saw someone cutting or killing a tree without any permission to the government, you'll be executed. Government closed all nuclear power plants in Japan, they recommended us to use solar power and geothermal power. Some water dams were closed due to cause they slowing down the revolution of Earth to the Sun.

Luckily, my country ain't got the calamity I'd mentioned, it was still normal though but my country is just ready for any calamity. I am living in the apartment located in Shibuya, Japan. I am wondering if calamities will bring devastation effect in my country and even the world. We are close to the end, as an individual, I'll try to save the environment for the sake of my family and to my future.
