      Reality of Shadow

      There are moments in a lifetime that are completely unexpected. Certain events that are impossible to prepare for no matter how imaginative you are or what stories you were raised on as a child. My life took one such turn after one of these special moments, though it’s hard to say whether the turn was in my favor or not as I’m still in a battle for my life, all because of one small instant in time, one accidental discovery. Either way I know the truth of my existence now which is more than many can say I would wager. This discovery was one I could never have dreamed of much less imagined and it remains to be seen if I would have asked for this knowledge given the choice. Not only are there single moments in time capable of changing your entire life, but there are certain objects possessing that same power. What is a normal life though? Perspective defines your individual reality.

      I thought I was a normal work a day guy until that moment of discovery. I guess I still am just in a different way, like I said I was in a certain place at a certain time. Whether I was lucky or not in finding this object only time will tell if it chooses to reveal its mysteries to me, I’m still working on it. My story may seem strange and fantastical from the outside but living it through your own eyes makes it one that is impossible to deny. I don’t live on what you would call earth anymore, not even the same universe. All I know for sure is this object I found thrust me into the middle of my truth, that and the object is a living spell, whatever that means. Forget my past, forget my old name, this is now my life and my only story that matters.

      I used to like to take walks in the afternoon in a park that was nearby my home. Call me old fashioned or lame but it relaxed me the way no TV or video game ever could. It was a wooded expanse with various trails and offshoots, open fields for soccer games, just your regular all American park. On one of my walks as I was coming up a small hill and around a bend about twenty yards from the edge of the woodline I tripped over a tree root. Not the first time, though I am proud to say it was the first time I had ever fallen completely and fall I did, usually I was pretty good at catching myself. If I hadn’t caught myself this time with my hands I would have been flat on my face. I rolled onto my right side and did what any normal person would do, started cussing loudly and telling that old tree root off terribly while holding the left wrist which seemed to take more of the fall than the right. While laying there still in midswear I saw a small metallic glimmer on the ground not even three feet away. I rolled over brushing the area clear of leaves to reveal a half moon shape sticking out of the ground, the rest was still buried. It looked like half of a soda can sticking out of the ground. Being the good citizen I am I wanted to remove the litter so I dragged myself to my feet swearing the whole time as I was brushing my shirt off.

      Well, no major injuries maybe a slight sprained wrist. Overall I’d call it a lucky fall. I said to myself walking over to remove that damned soda can. It was going in the trash after that fall if it was the last thing I did.

      When I reached out to touch it four metallic looking limbs shot out of its side wrapping around my left wrist and forearm digging into the flesh. I screamed no one seemed to hear or care Probably some stoned kids in the woods they would say, I thought as I struggled alone with this thing. Even before I had time to bring my right hand over to try removing this thing it vanished under the skin of my arm disappearing completely. When it first latched on there was a horrible pain but I didn’t feel that when it disappeared into my arm instead I only felt the mental anguish anyone would. I fell down staring at my arm in horror making all sorts of chirps and stammers but no words. Then I began to feel a soft pulse move through my arm and throughout my entire body, in fact my entire being would be a better descriptor. There was a soft wind within my mind and I felt for some reason like I needed to stand
