In space, an unprecedented flash of light appeared, that sped past the stars and planets of space, illuminating the dark celestial bodies for a flash before returning to darkness.
This light moved towards one planet…
Earth.
The light, strangely, was undetectable by anyone, and this light so happened to land… in Caelan’s apartment. The light stayed there for a moment, before forming into a humanoid shape, a pressure filled the world that only some could feel, and they knew what had descended.
A God!
This god, looked over at Caelan, and this god appeared to be in shock. He quickly hovered his hand above Caelan’s head, and physically felt his desire to go to a fantasy world, for a change, for something other than this world. The God looked pleased, and thought to himself, my mission came to an end so quickly, to find the one who interests me as soon as landing, what are the odds? God could already tell that Caelan’s need for a fantasy world is stronger than any other desire in this world.
God touched Caelan’s body, but not before looking over at June, and was shocked again. They love each other this much? This kind of love is hard to come by. He could see the strands that connected them together, an unbreakable bond. And so he also touched June’s body. Their bodies started turning into warm light particles that slowly drifted up into the skies. God was about to follow, but not before feeling another connection as strong as the one before, he moved there in an instant, and looked at the sleeping body of Anny. God only shook his head again as he too touched Anny’s body as well. That should be it, God thought. A smile appeared on Gods face, as he sped off into space.
Caelan woke up to a white room with no ceiling to be seen, he was bewildered, as he immediately stood up and looked around, wariness could be seen visibly on his body.
“Do not be afraid, Caelan” a voice resounded. Caelan’s wariness increased.
“Where is this place?” he asked the voice.
“This is a separate realm that I made, so we could talk”
Separate realm?! Then that means…
“Yes Caelan, I am a God” a figure appeared in thin air, and he was the most handsome man he had ever met, with locks of brown hair that glistened, and a face chiseled from marble. He wore a robe of material that flowed like water, continuously moving around his body with ever shifting colours.
Caelan calmed down a lot, no more wariness could be seen.
“Why do you want to talk?”
“Haha, calm even in the face of a god, looks like I picked correctly”
“Picked? You mean to say I was chosen?”
“…You are smart. But you do realise Caelan that normal people would freak out in this situation”
Caelan shrugged at God “I’m not like normal people, never will be.”
“Ha-Hahahahaha I knew I picked wisely ohoho. You are an interest to me Caelan. That is why I chose you out of the 9 billion people of your world”
Out of all of them?
“What have you chosen me for?”
“I have chosen you to go to, as you would call it, a fantasy world”
Shock appeared on Caelan’s face, then happiness that even God in front him wasn’t expecting.
“Really?! Haha my wishes have come true?! I can actually go there?! Hahahaha” Caelan laughed in happiness, but then Caelan remembered something, someone important.
“What about June?”
“She has been taken care of”

“Tak-taken care of?” Caelan said darkly, as his thoughts churned over the suggestions within. His hands transformed into fists, that anybody looking at them would think that they could level mountains, and his gaze could cut anything into pieces.
“What do you mean by that?” Caelan snarled, and a pressure emanated from him that even god felt unnerving. God held his hand up “I mean is that she is being talked to as well by me, so calm down” the pressure from Caelan immediately stopped and was replaced by relief.
“So is a girl called Annabelle”
“Anny? You’ve chosen Anny as well?”
“No, I only chose her because of her love for you”
“L-love? She loves me? Wha-how?”
“Never mind that Caelan, the transfer to the fantasy world is nearly complete.”
“Then, can I have your name please God?”
God smiled “it is Arcania, the Father of Gods, be well young one, for although it will be exciting, it will also be dangerous.”
Caelan nodded his head, obviously, how else would it be exciting?
Caelan was enveloped with a warm glow, before a sickening feeling of compression went through his body, making his body smaller and smaller. What the hell is this? It hurts! Caelan had such thoughts as he was transported across realms, across universes to end up in a planet, similar to earth, but was 10 times bigger, with two moons, one black and one white, looking very surreal. Although Caelan couldn’t see this at that time, as he was being hurtled through its atmosphere.
Caelan as he tore through space was seen to others as a star descending onto the planet. He travelled miles, across deserts and seas to reach an unimaginably gigantic forest. And he landed in a cave and landed in the paws of a huge bear, if Caelan could see this bear it would be as big as double-decker bus but Caelan was unconscious at the time. He didn’t notice the bear wake from her slumber, and look at the body of Caelan, she growled, and the sound of it echoed throughout the forest. Silence was the only thing that could be heard. The bear brought its giant head towards his body, and gave it a smell. The smell of the hard dense earth, the free sky, the salty sea and the sulphuric flames entered the bear’s nose, and shock appeared on its face. Then it looked gently at Caelan, before bringing him closer to it, before going to sleep as well, and noise once again returned to the forest.
Ugghh my head, feels like I was target practise for the All Blacks rugby team. Caelan opened his eyes to see the inside of a cave. Where the hell am I? This isn’t Kansas anymore. Caelan shook his head to get rid of the jokes. Then a rumbling echoed from behind him, he turned his head and beheld the biggest bear he had ever laid his eyes upon. With one amber eye opened to stare at Caelan, normal men would have cried out in fear, but Caelan wasn’t like ordinary men, instead of the fear the bear was expecting to see, all it could see was a curiosity and a gentleness that it hadn’t seen before.
“You are beautiful” Caelan said slowly as he took in all the bear, a beautiful golden brown fur, but what made him extra happy, was the black, bone like ridges that came out of its back and elbows. So this is it, the world I dreamed for. He reached out for the bear, but it growled softly, sounding unsure, he hesitated, not out of fear, but out of respect and to let it know that he meant no harm.
His hand reached its snout, and he laid his hands upon, it… her. Caelan didn’t know how he knew that, but he knew, like how the sun made its way through the sky, that the bear was a female. She closed her eyes against his caress. Caelan then hugged her snout, smiling stupidly, and promptly fell asleep again.
