Blinking Bane

I live in a small farm in Massachusets, away from the cities and cranky streets. I rather get homeschooled and harvest under the hot sun than bubbling myself through those noisy roads surrounded by people I can't even trust. It's hard to trust.

Things were well, till my parents decided to let my Aunt Heidi take me to the city. She told them I would have a better future in the concrete forest, but I find it difficult to adjust. Yet even if I didn't want to go, she drove me off to her home. With my parents permission, I lived the rest of my life under my aunt's roof.

It is difficult to adjust. Not just because it's the city, it's also because of the realms I see in this place. Compared to my old home, it is bright full of lies. I see those lies. I see those sins. I see themselves.

I haven't mastered my "Blink" to unsee what is unsee-able. What's "Blink" you ask? "Blink" is an ability to see certain realms existing at the same place as ours. To clarify, if you are seating in an empty room, you see the room itself. If you "Blink" you see a different version of it. Five different versions, Realm of Reality, Realm of Light, Realm of Fright, Realm of Blight and Realm of Lost.

Every realm has his specialty and uniqueness. Let us start with the Realm of Light.

Realm of Light shows the good side of things. The brighter days of existance. A realm that has more sparkly colors and bighter lights. It symbolises Goodness and Purity.

Realm of Fright demonstrates pain and suffering. Darker rooms and bloody walls partnered with defected and ruined beings. A realm that shows the painful side of existance. A symbol showing Flaw and Disability.

Realm of Blight, the Land of the Damned. Hunting grounds of free beings to fullfil deepest desires and temptations. A realm showing Sin and Unholiness.

And lastly, Realm of Lost. Unusual to me, and not enough study to confirm its meaning. The most unique realm that I know of. A realm where everything is scattered and misplaced. What you see in the four other realms doesn't exist in this.

The five realms, showing versions of everything, everywhere and everyone according to which realm I see. And all of these depend only through what you are in the Realm of Reality. You bend your own realm alternatives, you and you alone can curve and twist it.

In this city that now I live in, is disgusting and corrupted. I am not fooled by these bright decors and clean streets. The Fright says its broken and shattered like mirrors hammered down. The people here are cruel and dark, like how Blight showed their greed and lust. Lesser hope I have for this place, for it glows dark in the Realm of Light.

This "Blink" is bane to me, hard to master and hard to unsee. Yet I have to try, because I was born with this. A skill I need to master, a responsibity that truly matters. Blinking bane with disturbing thoughts. A combination that ruins my innocence, shredding my sanity. Yet I have to keep going, and keep pushing. For I know, there's a reason I was born with this.
