So i had this dream that seamed soo real. This is what happened....

I wake up, i look around me and see the clock. The alarm makes my ears sting as i hit the button to turn it off. 09:30 blinks red a** i rise from my bed. *Yawn* Two more months and college begins! Wow, time has passed. I get dressed and in my chaotic ritual, i see that today is the fourth of July. "Idiots," i think," Don't they know that the 4th was the day it was put in effect, not signed?" I brush my teeth, take a shower, dry-off, everyday kinda stuff. My day continues as normal, playing games,spending time with family, but then it changes as i drive to Bridgestreet (an outdoor mall in Madison, AL.) "Whew." On my way over i almost hit a stupid driver. Now i have been working at a peddle boat rental for some time now, i was going to spend the 4th saying goodbye to my boss and friends (my back is injured and by the time it heals, it would be time to leave for college,) I start making my way to the rental. Something weird stops me for a second, i heard someone call my name..... "Dillon!" It was light, a man's voice, but faint in the air. I turned, no one. I continued walking.....

I have finally arrived at the rental, i say my goodbyes and spend the evening with Danielle, my best friend and my girl friend. The night goes bye and the fireworks are about to start. All of the peddle boats are out on the lake and i sit next to Danielle on the metal bench placed near the store. We hold hands and talk for a bit. 10:00pm.
The fireworks are behind schedule....10:05. I get up an grab a soda. 10:07. They count down for the fireworks, excitement is in the air!
5! I run to her.....
4! She has her arms open....
3! The soda fizzes just a little....
2! I am almost there.....
1! I embrace her hug....
0! i whisper....Dani, I love you....
Then everything is white..... all of my surroundings are gone....."Where am I, what's going on...." I start to see green, the smell of mildew and the countryside fills my nose. Then a shade of blue and yellow begins to appear. I am in a field under a tree. It looks so familiar, like i was here many times before.....then i notice the soda in my hands....."What's going on.....?"

"Dillon! Dillon!" cries Danielle. Back at the store she is on her knees with what looks like ash, glitter, and dust in her hands. Tears run down her face. "Dillon! What's happening!?" A crowd starts to form, police arrive. My mother and Dani stand beside each other, crying. The police question my brother and father, the whole store, Danielle and everyone who saw what happened. Some people have used the saying "gone up in smoke," if i was there, the police would have probably said the same story for everyone who saw. I had disappeared into thin air, leaving a pile of strange glitter and ash. The police bag it as evidence.
"What happened to him?....""Why him?" "Where is he now?" rung through the air. A man wearing white stands up. "I know...."he says. His voice is welcoming and very pure, almost giving a strange feeling. No one would think that in such a strange instance that one with such a tone would speak up. "He is standing trial." "WHAT?" Dani yells. My family and friends rush to him, by now the crowd is gone and so have the police. "What do you mean?" repeats over and over again. "Trial......what?.....standing?....in front of whom?......why?" Eyes seem to all be locked on the man in white.
"Follow me,"he says. Anxious to see what he has to say, they all follow him. He leads them to the loading dock, a place where few people go, but is a very open space. "I'll show you," the man says. He turns to those following him and takes off his coat, his skin is pale but then on his back.....something on his back seems to glow......glow but now it's moving.....on both sides......it's like looking through a pair of prescription glasses for the first time, your eyes cannot focus but you can still see. Lumps?.....no......Tumors?......no.......Wings?......what the hell? Feathers take shape, and wings start to form. Fully extended they make the man seem minuscule. After they stretch out they wrap around him like a cloak.
"This is what he is standing trial for,....his freedom, and.....you." A finger points at Danielle. "You see, Dillon is not a normal being......He has tampered in the spiritual world many lives before this one, each time trying to find his one, true love. He randomly gets memories in his newer lives of past times. He now needs to earn the right to this life, by going through all of his past lives. He will be gone for three days your time, but in his time he will be gone for 60 years, every second here, is one whole day where he is right now. That is "Limbo," the lands of judgment. When he arrives he will look changed but no older than when he left. He will have the knowledge that he gains and the abilities of each past life. 20 years approximately of each life. He will earn the wings you see before you, and he will be strong and wise upon his return."
Everyone looks stupefied. "I must go" says the man, then his wings wrap around him and he disappears leaving white feathers...

I hear a scream.....a figure off in the distance..... First is sounds like a new language i have never heard. The figure gets closer and closer until...........
