Dream: Part Four

by kiwifruit487

"I love you," said Chelsti.

"I love you too," said Chelsto faintly as he heard Chelsti barely whisper, "Goodbye."

A huge tide came and was coming for Chelsto. He quickly opened his eyes. He was in a mass of water - around the area above the Maraqua - and there was a real and huge tide coming for him. It pushed him to the shore of the Mystery Island. Chelsto tried to clear his mind and think about what had happened, but everything was so muddled up that he gave up.

An Eyrie chirped out a song and flew down next to the right of Chelsto. Chelsto recognised the Eyrie immediately; it was Ryliya.

"Someone's been out of bed at night and someone's been upset," said Ryliya in a sing-song voice.

"Okay... okay," said Chelsto, "so you know what happened, so what?"

"No I don't," replied Ryliya, "now tell me what happened, maybe I could help you."

Chelsto sighed and said, "How could you help me? Wheelz and Floni ended up arguing all because of my stupid..." He never finished the sentence.

"You don't know me," said Ryliya.

"Us Eyries are different," finished Corlanya as she flew to his other side.

"We can be a huge help," said Lyokira as she flew to his front.

"All right," said Chelsto and he began explaining his dreams and what happened last night.

There was a long silence after he finished and Lyokira said, "What you said really happened."

"And the dreams before were premonitions," said Ryliya.

"But you threw yourself down the river," concluded Corlanya, "and Chelsti was never there; it was all an illusion."

Chelsto was confused and he said, "What are you Eyries on about?"

"Chelsto, you must go back to Wheelz_2000 and Floni," said Lyokira, "they are looking for you, filled with guilt. Also, about the premonitions, they will end, but you will have nightmares still, so the therapists can help you. To explain your story, it's simple. Chelsti is gone, though not neccessary forever, and you saw that in your premonitions. What happened last night was basically want you saw in your premonitions except the fact that you never saw Chelsti really, but only saw her shadow that is left on Neopia. The only reason your ended up in the river was because you threw yourself in. There now, go."

Chelsto understood and he did go. His mind was filled with questions, but he knew better to go. When he reached the Mental Hospital, Wheelz_2000 and Floni were there waiting for the searching team and him. They were ever so happy when they saw him.

"Oh, we are so sorry we ever left you alone!" said Wheelz_2000.

"It must have been horrid and lonely!" said Floni, "we won't argue anymore!"

"And now you must go and see the doctors," said Wheelz_2000, "after all, they waited all night!"

"I can't wait to hear what happened!" said Floni.

"They?" asked Chelsto, "more than one psyciatrist?"

But Wheelz_2000 and Floni already pushed him into the doctor's office. Chelsto grinned when he saw who was in the office. There was Lyokira, Corlanya, and Ryliya sitting there waiting for him.

"Here's your 'Dreamless Pills'," said Corlanya pushing a bottle into Chelsto's hand.

"Eat one pill a day," said Ryliya.

"And most of all, wait for Chelsti," said Lyokira, "she might just appear in the horizon one day."

"Yes, and here's a bottle of pills," added Corlanya, "Now go."

Chelsto left the room without words, though the Eyries understood, and he grinned and said thanks to Wheelz_2000 and Floni, "Thank you for taking me this far, but my next step is to be taken by myself alone. School doesn't start in an hour, and I would like to have the hour by myself. Thank you again, guys."

Chelsto went up to the front hill and sat down staring at the horizon watching the sun-rise. As he watched, he thought to himself, maybe - just maybe - Chelsti will be running from the horizon back... one day.

The End
