Today was a little weird. My co-worker is taking a class or something for the next, like, four weeks. This means I get the fishbowl all to myself. I usually see my co-worker first thing in the morning for about 10 to 15 minutes. This morning he wasn't in the fishbowl and hes laptop is gone. We are not allowed to take any company owned stuff home, so I knew he didn't take home yesterday. No co-worker in sight, but there was an extra chair sitting in our fishbowl. I thought it was odd...but I didn't think much else of it.
I was super tired today. I could hardly keep my eyes open. Those dang fairies were playing all night last night and sleep didn't come easy. At about 8:30 (I start work at 7) I got up to walk to the restroom, hoping to wake myself up a bit. It didn't help much, but I did notice that it was rather quiet today. The machines are going as usual and as loud as usual. What wasn't usual was the silence of the creatures that are forced to work here. If you check out my blog from last Wednesday you will know what I'm talking about. Then I felt the silence...the silence that was in their minds. Even the fairies I keep in my pocket started shouting up warnings to me.
I started walking up the steps to get back to my desk. The steps have two levels. You have a few steps, a kind of landing pad and then the rest of the steps. I made it up the first set with no problems. The second set gave me problems. Evidently a few goblins had made it into the building today.
As you know, goblins come in all shapes and forms. These were the ones that look like wingless fairies. Cute but deadly. They noticed me, heard my fairies and decided to "help" me up the steps by pulling on my shoe. Of course I fell. Luckily the fairies made it out of my pockets before my massive weight crushed them. My shin and hand didn't make it out as nicely. Not only did the goblins trip me, but they threw my shoe back down the stairs! I was furious. And without thinking, I threw a curse at them...let's just say, I will have a few angry goblins waiting for me at home today, waiting for their broken loved ones. I am keeping them in my desk draw and one of the fairies has taken guard over them.
I got back to my desk with fairies in one pocket and the goblins in the other. That's when I noticed the extra chair again. Something about that extra chair. Then it blew in my face. The creature that was quietly camouflaged sitting the in the extra chair, right behind me. I don't know how I missed him earlier this morning, maybe because I was so tired. The poor goblins were only trying to help me wake up so I could sense the thing. It is also the reason all the other creatures where quiet today, they sense it too.
You are probably dying to know what it was, right? It is one of my greatest enemies. It is more than any creature you find in this world or even the next. A creature from a demesion all their own. A parallel universe that no one or no thing dare go. They are worse than demons, stronger. They are prettier than any angel. They slowly seep into our world trying to take over like they have taken other demensions. It would not be good for us if they did take over. We would become like cattle, breed for food and slaves. You think the world is bad now, these creatures will make it so much worse. To the point where we would rather kill ourselves than be stuck here. Only...they will take over heaven and hell too. There would be no escape from them.
This one in particular, the one that has been watching me all day, has a name he has given me. He goes by Feo. It's short for something crazy, I'm sure. Feo is different from the others. He is a prince. The king of these creatures, the one who orders them to leak into our world, is Feo's father. Feo thinks its wrong what his father has done and since I was the first to find him I have been drafted to help him save this world, his world and all the other worlds his father has destroyed. How great is that? (Imagine I said that in a sarcastic tone, because I did.) Yes, the creatures are all afraid of him, they don't trust him. I have always see good in everyone and I trust way to easily.
Feo has come to tell me of his fathers new antics. And to hide in my closet for a few weeks. Silly thing has got some angry creatures after him.
Yall are so lucky to have me protecting the world.
Much Love
Heather
