The Power of Love
Do You Believe in Life After Love?
Previous Chapter"Alexandar? Can you please get all the other changelings? I would like to have a meeting." He nodded and walked away. I gathered a few random pillows that I could find in the tower for the meeting. slowly one by one the rest of the group came in.
"Hello. I want this to be our first meeting, and I want to get to know you all." the other changelings looked around and then back to me. each of us took a pillow in a semi circle formation and waited. "I guess I will go first then. Before the Event, i was a nurse. I lived with my father in a house not to far from here. The Event happened durning my late shift and i fell asleep. I woke up to an empty nurses station and an equally empty hallway. The hospital burned down with me in it and I was saved by a Firefighter pony thing. That part is the fuzzyst part for me because i passed out and did not wake up for three months. Now Alexandar it is your turn." I gave him a smile and a nod.
"I was a secretary at Atlanta. I worked for the Mayor. When the Event happened I was leaving work. It was very late, and there where not many cars on the road at the time. It had rained less than thirty minuets ago and my car hydroplaned. It was heading for a semi-truck that dissapered for some reason. I flew into a ditch and stayed there for a good hour. After I figured out how to get out of my car I crawled my way to a gas station that was a few miles down the road. When i got there it was empty so I tried to get on the phone that was on the wall. One of those old pay phones. I thought that the hard black shell that I had where burns. But my car did not go up in flames. The worst part was that I thought that i was going to die. I could not reach that phone and I had lost all hope. But then I felt a pull. It was like sombody was calling for help. I knew i had to help them." He stoped talking and was hyperventalating just a little. I walked over and gave him a hug. He calmed down a little and nodded to Lily.
"I should go next. I was a foster mother before the Event. I had three children and my husband worked as a factory worker. We lived in Texas. I worked at home so i could be around the children as much as possible. I never could have children of my own, and any child that i took care of was my own. I have there photos if you want to see them." she pulled out a few photos from her jacket. "This one is of my family. My husband Alvan is on the left, the one in the middle is the youngest her name is Melody. On her right is chris, he loves trucks and took aprt the microwave one year. Alvan was so mad at him. On Melody's left is the oldest, he was a senior in highschool this year. His name is Matt. He wanted to become a singer." she started to cry. "I miss them, but I don't know if i will see them again. We where all asleep when it happened. I woke up at the normal time to make sure that they where getting ready for school. Alvan was not in bed, but that was normal. He usually left early to go work at the factory. I could not walk, and i thought something was wrong. the house was never this quiet. I flopped around on the ground trying to get up."she stopped, and curled into a ball sobbing. We all gathered around her into a group hug.
"I think that we should stop for today, we can have the meeting at a later date." I helped Lily up and took her to the chair she was sleeping on. "Goodnight Lily. I am sorry that you have lost so many that you love. We will work together as a team, okay? No more need for the water works you have us now, and we are going to stick together okay?" she nods slowly and i stay with her untill she went to sleep. after that i headed to my chair. How does somebody come back from looseing there entire family?
