Awakening

My eyes open as I awaken, my heart pounding in my chest, my body cold as ice. My body drenched in sweat as if I had just taken a shower. My eyes where unfocused, I had no idea where I was or what was happening. Slowly I regain my senses, I sat up and looked around. I was in a small wooden shed that had a bunch of gardening equipment, nothing of high quality but looked well made. By my side was a small bundle of white flowers, I scrambled away from the flowers in a panic. "Holy shit, that's hemlock." A very poisonous plant that even touching can cause death. "Where the hell am I?" Looking around a saw a leather notebook besides the flowers, I put on a pair of gardener gloves and picked up the book, wary of any residue that may be on it.

It had strange letters that I've never seen before but I seemed to understand it. After reading through it I had a understanding on what was happening. First off it seemed I am in another world, second it seems I am in someone else's body, and third this person died after eating raw hemlock thinking it would make them stronger. It seems the reason they thought it would make it stronger is because hemlock is one of the main ingredients to a cultivation pill. "Hmm, this is either a really good dream or some kind of experiment that makes me have a lucid dream state . Yup those are the two most likely combinations."

Time to test my theory, I looked at the book and then looked away, then looked back." Hmm, well this seems normal..." I pinched my small nose and closed my mouth, yet I couldn't breath. I pushed my small slender finger against my soft palm, yet it didn't go through. I took one of the shovels and used it's shiny polished head as a mirror. "Hmm, it's not my face but it's not distorted or anything."

The face I saw was beautiful, thin yet dark eyebrows, lushes and long eye lashes. A soft golden color eyes with a black center to them, reminiscent of a gold coin. My skin was a light brown, seemingly tanned from hours in sunlight. Smooth face and small nose, there was a red blush just above my nose as well. Long inky black hair that went to my shoulders. "Damn I'm beautiful, but I look young... also am I a girl?" I looked down at myself and was wearing simple whit cotton dress with a dark green apron and a brown corset. "Hmm, my outfit says I'm a girl." I then lifted my dress up and pulled down my white cotton underwear. "Well this part at least says I am currently male."

I put my clothes back on properly and go to look outside, It seemed to be evening and the sun seemed to be setting. It seemed to be a village, an old timey one that I remember reading about in history class. "Wow, so this world even has villages." I breath in, the air felt fresh and rich. "Is this what unfiltered air feels like." I took in deep breaths feeling my energy surge with every breath. I concentrated on that feeling, holding the oxygen in my longs for as long as I could before releasing it.

"Zion! where have you been?" Suddenly a ,short platinum haired, woman walked over to me. She was tall maybe 6ft and looked to be around forty but hadn't lost any charm from old age. She had the same golden eyes as me but hers where sharp and focused. She was plump in all the right places, big breast and large round ass with thick thighs. She was wearing a white cotton top that had long sleeves and a oval opening that let the top of her large breast be seen. A mid ankle length green cotton skirt and brown corset. Her outfit reminded me of what a medieval barmaid would wear.

"I was just looking at some gardening tools." My voice was cute and a bit high pitched making me sound nervous. To be honest I was a bit nervous, from the diary I read this should be my grandma, but in the diary it said she was an extremally old woman. "It's dangerous to go poking around in there, there are a lot of sharp thing in there that could hurt you." I was immediately scolded but it felt kind of nice. I've been scolded before but it was usually because they didn't want me to mess up a product or cause a delay cause I broke something.

After the ten minutes she finished scolding me and looked down at me with her hands on her hips. "Got it?"

I nodded my head furiously "Yes ma'am." I said, sounding like a solder talking to their superior. "Good, now give grandma a hug." She then let out a delightful smile and wrapped her arms around me, her breast pressing into my face. It was the first time I've experienced such a warm hug. I was stunned by the embrace, I was only hugged a handful of times in my past life and the few times I hugged weren't out of love but out of the need to share body heat on cold winter night when the heater went out.

It felt so warm in her embrace, it made me realize just how physically starved I've been for a connection with someone. I had unknowingly started to cry on my grandma's shoulder. She pulled away from the hug holding onto my shoulders. "What's wrong Zion? Did I hug you too tightly? are you hurt?" She had a panicked look on her face as she looked over me.

"No no, I just feel bad for making you worry." I did feel bad, I felt bad that this bodies owner had died and I had taken it over. There was nothing I could do about it, and I didn't plan on giving this body up either. I wanted to be the best grandchild so I could have even more hugs from grandma!

In this new life I would live out my dreams, I would make this life one of paradise!
