Shackles and Spoons

Last night...

         I grew up in this castle full of people. Sort of like an orphanage... without people wanting to adopt us. I was best friends with this girl. We grew up together. Pale, blue eyes, and long sleek black hair ran down her back.
         As we became older, we developed a strong attraction toward each other, but something scared her. Something bothered her. I tried to confront her about it one day after dinner and she just kept apologizing and ran up the stairs to the top quad in tears. I tried running after her, but she kept pushing me away. So I went to this tiny tree on the middle layer of the castle.
        I always liked hanging out at this tree. It hung tiny charms of horses, scissors, birds, etc. My favourites were the fancy spoons. I sat there and fiddled with the spoons when a drag queen came to my side. She was the one who has taken care of me all my life.
         She sang me a song when suddenly things went dark and the tree sprang chains. They shackled the drag queen by all of her limbs and she told me to run to my best friend. I ran up the stairs to the quad that looked out to the whole castle. There was an overhang that had chains on each pillar all strapped to each limb of my dear friend. I tried taking off the shackles, but it was no use. Then I hear a giggle from behind me. It was a fiery imp. He had been haunting my friend for years. I had to save her.
          I went into a fierce battle with this imp until I came out victorious. My friend was free of the shackles and as we embraced, we looked out to the rest of the castle. Then the page turns on that world and we are in Jamaica... a very clean and peaceful Jamaica with no land. There was no beach or anything. Just clear bright blue water and a bunch of rafts and boats. There were all sorts of sea creatures in the water.
           My friend looks at me and with a smile said "I hope I don't get bit by sharks!" Then she dove straight into the water. I smiled and laughed before diving in after her. I swam with a giant eel. There were sharks, but they weren't vicious. The whales seemed to be social with humans as well. Then I looked up from below the water and saw these perfectly circular fish. They would flip upside down as they hit the surface. Then I noticed that on their bellies, they had a digital clock. It showed the date and time.

Then I woke up in my bed... worried that I was late for work. Thank goodness I wasn't. Sometimes one can lose track of time when on a wicked adventure.
