Changing

Changing

The pebble skipped 4 times over the rough surface of the sea. Another one followed it causing new ripples in

its wake. The pebble casters name was John and he wasn't feeling quite right today.

He had learned of his death.

"A month , even less.." the doctor told him severely. " The cancer had spread so fast , I have never seen anything like it."

His parents were distraught. He was their only son. He was about to graduate from the University. They had

such hopes for him. His mother had cried herself mercilessly while his father remained like a stoic

soldier through out the ordeal. John wished with all of his heart that he could end their anguish. That he can

somehow tell them the truth.

The truth was that he wasn't dying at all.

He was changing. As to what he didn't even know.

He only knew that the night he was diagnosed with cancer a Muse

came to his dream.

The muse whispered. "Change. Unstoppable. Unbreakable change. You will be part of the chain."

He then woke up and felt weird prompting the consultation.

Being part of the Chain.

"what does that even mean?"
