Where: The garden in Angel's dreams
Who: Angel and the mysterious dream man with no name
When: As Angel lay in medibay
Angel looked up at her dream man. He gazed into her eyes with such intensity
that she felt she was the only person in the entire world.
Angel almost forgot the questions she had, and realised that she too was loosing
herself into his gaze. She felt a warmness in him, and felt her her mind was
starting to relax. But yet she still had a nagging thought that wouldn't let go.
Angel pulled away in a moment of strength and she dramatically smacked the dream
man on the cheek. Then she pulled away from him and asked,
"What am I doing here? tell me!" she demanded sternly.
The mysterious man rubbed his face and looked at Angel with a confused but still
lustful look. Then for the first time he spoke.
"All this" He gestured at the garden around them. "Is my memory of our world. I
have shown this memory to you, to help you understand who you really are, and
where you came from".
Angel was lost for words she just stood in front of the mystery man and just
looked at him, with her eyes wide open in shock, her mouth hanging wide open
like she was trying to catch flies.
He pushed her chin up to close her mouth, he then looked at her and started to
explain himself.
"In 500 ad our planet was a lot like Earth. We were a strong and hard working
people. We lived in peace after a great war that almost distorted our way of
life, we lived as farmers and workers, living off the land. Nothing went to
waste, we never took more then we needed and every tree we chopped down was
replaced with new trees."
Angel felt a tear running down her cheek. The man showed so much passion when he
spoke of this old planet that she lost herself in his words. She imagined the
planet so vividly, as if she had seen it for herself.
He continued. The way he expressed every word about the planet was with pride.
Angel looked down as the tears where running down her cheek and dripped off her
chin. He stroked her face and raised her chin up so she was facing him.
"I am real and I will find you" he whispered gently.
Angel had many more questions to ask him. " The lady who came to me in my
dream... Who was she?" She asked, although she already knew. But she felt like
she needed to be told.
The man looked in her eyes and said with warmth;
"The lady was your mother."
Angel gasped. "My mother?"
"Yes. She had to send you to Earth, because a new evil was coming. It threatened
to kill all of our people. It was so devastating, as we don't age like a lot of
creatures in other worlds"
Angel was starting to feel fear creep up on her. It made her nervous and angry.
"The creature that killed our planet and our people was a strange creature. We
had never faced anything like this, all these creatures wanted was to take our
planet, they didn't want to live in peace so the killed everything."
Angel could feel the rage building up, she closed her eyes and tried to control
herself.
The mystery man could see the effect it was having on Angel, but he knew she
needed to know where she came from and who she is. Only then could she have any
chance of rebuilding the old ways.
"Please don't be angry." He said. "This has been passed on to you, it was a
great honour for me to serve your mother. She had to send you to another time
where you would not be found, I was sent here at this time by your mother to be
with you."
Again, Angel's mouth dropped open.
"Your mother was the daughter of a great leader and when he died she took over
command of our people, like a council. The council ran everything in our world,
telling everyone at all times what was happening. We lived in a open minded
society, and everyone was equal.
He quickly turned and looked around then he looked back at Angel, he smiled and
the kissed her gently. She could feel everything he had felt through the years
of fighting and the feeling of loss, he stopped kissing her, then whispered In
her ear,
"Wake up princess"
"Princess?" Angel looked at him and wanted to ask so many more questions, but as
she started to ask everything was fading, she had one question to ask and made
it quick.
"Who are you?" Asked Angel. Her voice echoed, like she was shouting down a
tunnel.
He had enough time to reply
"My name is Dexter" he shouted back.
Angel felt like she was falling downwards and with a bump she had landed back in
the medi-bay, she had fallen out of the bed,
The pink tree suddenly stopped running around and stood and looked at Angel, as
Angel tried to get up a hand popped up in front of her, she looked up to see who
the gentleman was, she looked up and saw Callum looking down at her, she took
his hand and sat up in the bed.
She was weak, but she clasped into Callums arms. He hugged her tight but then
placed her on the bed and walked away but before he left her alone he said to
her
"Glad your back" Then he was gone.
