A storm

Time doesn't fly when you're just sitting down staring at nothing. I wished for a better fate than this, one where my parents were still here and comforting me with such warm arms and loving holds. My heart aches every time I think about them that it drives me crazy.

"Why them and not me?"

My tone was cold and felt as if I was talking to someone who was responsible for keeping me alive. I had to take in a few breaths as I was losing my cool. With Nana being at her ending ages and my parents died, I had no one else to turn to but to accept getting adopted. It hurts. I can't help it but I feel hurt. If anything, what if they don't even know me or understand my gift. The calm vibe I was giving off was slowing being destroyed by the questioning and worriedness in my mind. The pain was just a scar that burned every time I thought of it.

"Why didn't the flames take me instead of them?"

"Because I choose you to inherit this power along with others."

I jumped and looked around the room. My door was close, nobody was in my room except me. I started to panic cause from my eyes, no one was in the room with me. Where in the world did that voice come from? Suddenly, the world around me changed. I was at a shrine, a big beautiful shrine.

"I'm on a drug."

"No, your perfectly fine child. Though there is no need to freak out"

When someone says not to freak out, then this where the person they said not to panic, Panics. I looked around trying to find the person who was speaking to me or at least who I thought was speaking to me. But I didn't know that outside of my curiosity, a world below me where was suffering from a terrible storm. Shaking his head and trying to calm himself down, he decided to answer his questions out load to find the source of this voice.

"Who are you and where have you taken me?"

"I am not of importance but you are at the heaven zone my child."

Heaven zone? I've only heard my mom speak of the heaven zone as a gateway to special people. A spot between both heaven and hell, it's beautiful but I didn't think it would have such an earth-like appearance.

"So why am I here? Is there a reason to do this?"

It went silent for a moment. I could tell that whoever was speaking was trying to say something but couldn't. Before I knew it my mind was brought back to the world I recognized, however, I appeared to be on the ground. Did I pass out? Why did I get sent back?

"Sora are you alright? What happened for you to make such a storm?"

A storm? The moment I looked out a window, all I saw was damage. The true nature of having this ability was the very fact that one wrong emotion, on strong enough, can cause many people to lose their homes, lives, and those around them. My heart sank into a void as I only questioned the very fact knowledge I had. I wasn't calm. I wasn't calm. I made this tragedy while being unaware of my own well being. What have I done...
