*Ring* *Ring* *RING* *RING*

The sound of the phone alarm kept sounding in the background but its owner was already awake, making it almost purposeless.

I wake up in a haze not really knowing where I am or what time it is, eyes out of focus until a ringing in the background really wakes me up.

*Gasp*

I get up from bed quickly and go to a mirror in the corner of the room to check myself. Before me is a face as white as ash with sweat dripping down slowly to the tip of its nose.

"What the fu*k did I just dream about?"

I try to remember about last night's dream or more correctly a nightmare in which I hear a ear splitting noise and feel a certain gaze upon me that makes me look just like a piece of delicious meat. Trying to gain more information from my memories I only get a headache that makes the memories that I had just collected to be forgotten.

After trying to remember for about a few minutes I just give up in frustration and decide to eat some grub. I eat some reheated pasta from last night while watching the news.

I eat the pasta slowly with the voice of the TV in the background making me bored.

After breakfast I decide to go out to the backyard and see how the trees are doing. I have a big backyard and my father not wanting to let it go to waste has planted in it a lot of fruit trees like cherries, pomegranate, lemons and an orange. Its early spring and nature has started to rear its head, the cherries have started to bloom and the lemons are not far behind.

While checking the trees, a sudden urge to look to the sky comes over me and I look up just in time to see the sky break open just like someone poking a hole right through it .I am stunned for a split moment not moving and just staring at the black gaping hole in the sky.

In the next moment I start running towards the front door trying to get out as soon as possible but alas just after five steps, and a half finished word everything turns dark.

"Motherf*ck....

.... 

In the abyss, at the final point of the duel between the shield and the spear.

 The spear seems to be exhausted from the struggle with the shield but also from the erosion by the abyss which is constantly draining its strength .After some time the ravenous spear had become a cornered animal and a cornered animal is always bad. The spear starts vibrating and in an act of revenge for this defeat it decides to seemingly sacrifice itself, just to take a piece of his prey .It starts to compress even more and making the tip of the spear more sharp and robust and finally breaks through the shield .

Right after breaking through the shield it is staring at a blue and green planet which is being orbited by one moon .The planet seems abundant with plant and animal life, with beings big and small, just ripe for the taking. The hungry power even after battling with the shield still had some power and with that power it plunged down towards the blue and green planet at an enormous speed trying to fish for something.

The power arrived at the ground in less than a second showing its tremendous speed and started devouring immediately everything in its grasp, but this land he was depowering was not a land without an owner and that owner wouldn't let a unruly being be in its land .

The shield started contracting faster and faster trying to seal of this unknown power inside and obliterated it in its own territory where it had the advantage.

Just as the power started to devour it felt something disturbing. It was being trapped in very fast and if it didn't retreat right now it wouldn't be able to leave anymore.

Very fast it took what it just had in its mouth and made a retreat the way it came as fast as it could.

It arrived at the crack it had made in the shield in the blink of an eye rushed through it but in that moment the shield regenerated in an instant and thought it was thin, it did its job.

*BANG*

The power was surprised about the fast regeneration of the shield but it did not stop and crashed head on with the shield breaking out, and taking with it a piece of the shield. 

It escaped the clutches of the blue shield, but at what price?

It was exhausted after that long fight and now that it was out again in the abyss, it was disappearing fast, but at least it had taken its revenge.

After some time it disappeared completely leaving behind its spoils of war.

It was a house and not just any house but the house of our MC. Along with that house was the piece of the shield that came off in the retreat of the unknown power.

After the power disappeared completely, the piece of the shield as if by instinct wrapped around the house to protect it from the erosion of the abyss. After completing its purpose it became unresponsive and would not move anymore.

....

There in the abyss there is floating a lone house without a destination, without hurry. Floating there in the darkness like an exile looking for a place to call home.
