.Shelby smiled at Syl, and after telling me all about how she finished some project in school, she left to go back inside.Sylvia looks up at me, and smiled again, very warmly.Then she says this, “I’m so sorry I was so mean to everyone.I was just so scared about you guys, and wanted to be nearby, and I didn’t know how to make the dreams stop.”I smiled and sort of brushed it off as some of the weirdness she’d spouted off before.The women in the school have said multiple times she can go off on these weird tangents.Then she says this, “When I dreamt of how you and Michelle were surrounded by all those dead people, and then when I saw you, and then her, and then Kevin… I knew I had to stay around to help protect you.I don’t think I did in the end, but I’m sure happy Michelle did was she was supposed to do, and you and Kevin did too.A lot of people are now safe because of you guys.Imagine all the babies that will born now because of you three.”So apparently she had dreamt about the three of us.I questioned her softly, and she agreed to as much.She had been having detailed dreams about March 3rd going back for months.A year really.Dreams of the living.I guess they were White Room dreams too, which is strange.I don’t know quite what to make of all that, but it was amazing to hear.Then, after our long-ass conversation, she drops this atomic bomb on me….“ I just hope the others make their decisions as well as you did.”The others? What fucking others right? I was tweaking.Like, heart in my throat tweaking.I leaned down to her and asked, “What do you mean others? I’m confused.”Sylvia stood up, brushed her jeans off of the grass she’d picked up, and looked up at the blue sky above us.Without looking back down to me she said, “Three is like… a perfect number.It’s got something to do with math.Michelle told me about it.People in The White Room talked about it too.A lot of religions use the number three to symbolize very important things.The third hour of the third day of the third month Adrian? Three is important.”“Yeah?”Then she looked down at me, still smiling and oblivious to the enormity of what she was about to say.“The only number that could have more importance than three would be nine then, right? Nine is perfect too.More perfect that three really.Nine is three threes.You guys were never the only Trinity Adrian.You think the force that runs all of creation and makes bunnies would trust everything to just three people? Oh well.I'm sure you saved millions.So many people will have a chance at happiness because of you three.I’d be really proud if I were you.”I’m like, floored and shit.I have no idea if she’s right.I have no way of knowing, and after talking to Michelle and Kevin about it… they agree with her.It makes a lot of sense to all of us.So many different kinds of people across the world, some societies are more likely to fail than others.Is it our job to help these other, hypothetical Trinities?I don’t know.I don’t want to think about it right now either.I’m done writing this.I’ve been the Scribe for a very long time, and I’m weary.I’ve written so much I’ve forgotten how to live without trying to remember everything that happens.I’ve poured my heart, my soul, my life, and my sweat into this journal, and one day I’ll share it with people so they can understand what I went through, what we all went through to get to where we are today.I am no longer the Scribe, I think.I might still be the Soul, but I think all of us are now responsible for that part.I am just a man, trying to be the best man I can, and trying to lead other men and women to a better life the same as I.Time for me to try and be happy.Time for me try to love again, sincerely this time.Someone else can be the memory now.Otis is profoundly happy.This means far more lap time for my homeboy.-AdrianMarch 19thRemember me?AbbyTHE END- About The Author -CHRIS PHILBROOK is the creator and author of Adrian’s Undead Diary as well as the fantasy series Elmoryn and Tesser: A Dragon Among Us.Chris calls the wonderful state of New Hampshire his home.He is an avid reader, writer, role player, miniatures game player, video game player, and part time athlete, as well as a member of the Horror Writers Association.If you weren't impressed enough, he also works full time while writing for Elmoryn as well as the world of Adrian’s Undead Diary and his newest project, Tesser; A Dragon Among Us.- Find More Online -Visit adriansundeaddiary.com to access additional content.Learn more about Adrian’s world, contact the author, join discussions with other readers, view maps from the story, and receive the latest news about AUD.Check out Chris Philbrook’s official website thechrisphilbrook.com to keep tabs on his many exciting projects.Sign up for his email newsletter to stay informed about the latest developments and special announcements, or follow Chris on Facebook at www.facebook.com/ChrisPhilbrookAuthor.Read more by author Chris Philbrook in The Kinless Trilogy.Explore Elmoryn, a world of dark fantasy where death is not the end.The story begins in Book One: The Wrath of the Orphans, available in print, Kindle, and online.Visit elmoryn.com to learn more about Elmoryn, view concept art, and much more.Follow Chris Philbrook’s latest epic series as it unfolds in Tesser: A Dragon Among Us.Meet Tesser, the Dragon.He who walks in any form, and flies the skies free of fear.He has slept for millennia, but now he has awoken in a world ruled by human hands, where science has overshadowed even the glory of old magic.Follow Tesser as he seeks to understand why he slept for so long, and where all the magic has gone.Visit adragonamongus.com to learn more.Can’t get enough of AUD?Visit the School Store at adriansundeaddiary.com for stickers, hats, and a wide variety of awesome shirts!Can’t Wait for More?Look for Chris Philbrook’s FREE short fiction eBook, At Least He’s Not on Fire.Find it on Amazon, Goodreads, or Smashwords today!Amazon: http://www.amazon.com/dp/B00JSGEKIKGoodreads: https://www.goodreads.com/book/show/21948978-at-least-he-s-not-on-fireSmashwords: https://www.smashwords.com/books/view/430970 [ Pobierz całość w formacie PDF ]
