14. WILD FLOWERS

My dreams came back to haunt me during the night. Even though Hayden was only an arms-length away from me I awoke screaming again. He held me firmly, rocking me back and forth whispering in my ear.

“You’re okay. I’m here to take care of you. Wake up Natalie.” I held onto his arms that were wrapped around me. I was awake now but shuddering at the twist my dream had now taken. It wasn’t Adam and I that were walking hand in hand on that path anymore. Hayden was with me. The dark shadow that was coming quickly towards me was not one but three shadows. Hayden didn’t let go of my hand, like Adam did, and surprisingly that’s when I awoke, screaming.

“I’m alright. Thank you,” I said still clinging to him, not wanting him to move, he held me tight.

Later that day Hayden decided he wanted to bring me back out for more training. He hinted that time was becoming a factor. I was frightened by the reason behind his fears. Something was coming. I shuddered remembering my dream.

“So where is it we are off to today?” I asked after finishing lunch. He was leaning against the counter watching me. I smiled, feeling a little self-conscious.

“I think we need something fun today too.”

“That sounds good,” I said smiling. “When do you want to go?”

“Well, the sun is shining so I think in about an hour. I suggest you wear something comfortable, there will be some climbing involved,” he advised.

“Climbing?” I scrutinized him.

“Don’t worry, its nothing you can’t handle,” he grinned. He walked over to me as I stood up. He grabbed my hand and kissed me gently. He led me to his room. Now I knew why he didn’t want to leave right away.

As we started driving he rolled down his windows and seemed to be listening to something. He quickly turned off the radio and slowed down. He pulled over and then a moment later he took off speeding down a side road.

“What is it?” I asked.

“There is something happening that I think might be beneficial for you to see,” he answered. He started to slow the car and eventually pulled into a parking space along the side of the road.

I felt the change in energy around us. I have felt it before, many times. Hayden stepped out of the car and I followed him over to a cliff at the side of the road. Down below was a hi-way. I saw a red sports car, the make was unidentifiable, and a big, white truck. Both vehicles were stuck together. The red car was smashed into the truck like a paintball. The driver’s side and the passenger side were both folded up. I saw her as I tried to look in the window. The woman was sitting in the drivers’ seat. She was mangled. The only reason I knew her to be a woman was her long hair. As I watched, I was about to ask Hayden to leave when I saw her attempt to sit up.
