~::Receiving a Soul::~
It had felt as if I was falling. The sky below me was the clearest blue. The ground above me was an ocean of greens, I think it was a forest. How do you fall towards the sky? That is all I could remember before I reached this blackness. The only light was the large violet orb that hung in this nothingness with me. “Meana... Meana...” The word sounded like it was coming from every direction. It would not stop. “What is Mea...” I stopped the voice I used was the same. “Meana is you.” I heard it this time the other voice came from the orb. “Meana do not fear, I am you Meana.” I moved closer to the orb till I could almost touch it. “How? Why? What is happening?” The colors in orb hypnotized me. I could almost feel memories I couldn't recall slipping from my mind.
“Meana” I could feel the orb calling to me. “Meana it is time to go”
“Go, go where?” I asked the orb.
“To the real Meana. The time of birth is near. All bodies need a soul. You are to be mine Meana.” The orb was drawing me in, but I felt no fear. I felt my being touch the orb. I felt the warmth. I heard small beats of a heart within my own ears. I felt the fluids around me on my fur and flesh. I felt my eyes open. Here now was all I remembered. It was if I had always and only been here inside the orb. I was Meana but finally I was whole a body and spirit. My eyes saw the light that made it into the orb warming me. I reached out for the first time trying to reach for them, but i could not. I was not ready to attempt leaving. But I knew I would be soon. I let my eyes close again. For the first time i slept. Breathing the fluids of the orbs that let me live. I already longed for air to fill my lungs.
