A new place, a new start and a new me. Maybe, I can just forget about the past and move to a little brighter place, the one, I was living in before. That place was not something even a devil will want to visit. I escaped. I don't have a single amount of idea, how I did that but I did. At one moment I was looking out of the window and inspiring the view which I would never be a part of, and out of the blue, a loophole, so deep, came in front of me. I got no idea, where did it come from? At first, I thought its better to stay here, but a voice came, not to my ears or my brain or my heart but my soul, out of nowhere and without uttering a single word I followed it and here I am under mesmerizing warmth of the sun, I was dying to come under the sun from that pitch black, hole, my room. Now, I am sitting under the sun and following the sound of the birds and feeling the gentle zephyr. My entire life was hard and dull, until now.

Walking and walking for hours not even I know where I would stay, I don't even have a single penny, so I have no options but to just keep strolling. Roads are very silent for their good and not even a single human is out there.

I was at the outskirts of the town, trees, herbs and shrubs are everywhere and silence as well. Until, a ball of paper hit my head, hard. What is this? And who threw this thing on me? I looked all around but found no one.

"Is someone there?" I screamed. But all I heard was silence.

I opened that paper, something was scribbled on it.

*"Something's wrong and your heart knows that and I am also aware of that. I can help you if you let me. Looking for a place to go, no worries, follow the butterflies, they will take you to your destiny."*

Butterflies? A butterfly is going to tell me where I need to go? Still having a little amount of belief, I looked around, this place was all covered with trees, total isolation and not even a single sign of a butterfly. Was someone trying to make a joke of me or those people are trying to test my loyalty which I know, that I have failed, miserably? As I was sinking myself in that utter silence I heard a sound, a buzz to be precise and out of nowhere a butterfly whose wings are as deep as that of an ocean with a delight of sparkle in it came in front of me. I have never seen this kind of mesmerizing beauty in my entire life of eighteen years. It's gorgeous. And the way that butterfly stopped just in front of me, it was like she was telling me to follow her and I did as directed. I followed her, and we walked together, a village came, and after such a long time I saw someone with flesh and bones. The market was quite chirpy everyone was looking joyful and amazed. They all were their happy-self, but me. We crossed a lot of markets together, the butterfly ever In a while used to check on me, if I am still following her or not, maybe it should. As I was passing from the market a lot of things, I saw which is something unique for me, as in, I watched someone baking cakes, which I know, is normal but, not with the help of an oven but the cake was getting heated on that person's hand, his hand was on fire. How is that even possible? Loading all these kinds of stuff and soaking everything in my mind, I tried to move forward, then I saw something my eyes were dreading to notice, I watched a man all swirled in chains, screaming and grunting and few people with their hoods on are taking him to some kind of tool, I don't know what is written on it, what is the language used? Is it Arabic?

*"allah sawf yutahir ruhk"*

They took him there, one man in a hood, tied him with that tomb and other raised a blade, and in no time he scratched the tomb and hell... a lot of fire came out. But from where? That guy screamed till its last breath and he was all burnt into ashes. No one was looking horrified everyone does have a look of satisfaction. What is wrong with all of them and most importantly where the hell am I? The butterfly was waiting for me at that spot, until we continued are the non-ending journey. We passed villages, a church and now we are entering a forest. Is this even the right path?

"Hey butterfly, I hope you can hear me very well, can you please at least tell me where we are heading? Because after this long and tiring journey I don't think so that it's even the right way... Are you even listening to my blabbering?" I blurted my frustration out.

The butterfly came just in front of my face and it sat on my nose... What is it even trying to tell me? I tried to look at it but I was only able to see its eyes, they are so vulnerable as it felt sorry for me, but why? Does she know my past? I said nothing after that and I followed her quietly.

Trees, trees, and trees I am surrounded by it and still, we walked more until it felt like a century. I looked, back to the path we came from and when I was about to move again, the butterfly was missing. I searched for that tiny creature everywhere, I looked all around but it was not anywhere to be found. You have got to be kidding me. She can't leave me like that, especially not in the middle of this freaking forest. I thought to move deeper into that forest to search for that butterfly but instead of her, I came across a tree where a lot of butterflies were carved on it and as I touched it a stream of butterflies swayed at one shot... What is this place? As I was looking at all the butterflies flying away one butterfly came in front of me and said, "a Nephilim, I never thought Raziel will be sending one. It's my honour to have you at my gates. Miss..."

"Evanalissa jones" I replied.

"Yes, it must be you." She looked at me with such eyes that no one has ever looked, it was not pity, not even sorrow it was the respect which I thought I won't be getting in this lifetime. I have a lot of questions but the first one that came out from me was "you can talk to me, how?"She looked at me with humbleness then answered "does it matter that I can talk to you, Eva? And is it fine for me to call you Eva?"

"Yeah you are right, and yes you can call me that." I answered with a small smile, and continued "can you please tell me where I am? This place is so weird and I saw some people in the village and they were all happily removing an existent of a man. What is this place?" I rapidly asked.

"Daughter there is nothing to worry about you are just coming to your true home, where you truly belong. This place is called the garden of Eden. And the person you saw earlier was a demon who killed mundanes." She gave a balanced answered.

"As in the real garden of Eden and 'by the angel', demons? The biblical one?" I almost screamed.

"Yes, the real garden of Eden, the biblical one and everything with it." She said as calmly as the ocean water.

"You got to be kidding me, am I dead? Or you all here to receive my soul to heaven, one minute am I going to heaven or hell? Oh God have mercy!" I exclaimed.

"No daughter, you are not dead and yes you are going to heaven but not as a human but as a Nephilim. I am not supposed to tell you everything. Its Raziel's job to do. Now let me help you to go to heaven."

And all of a sudden, the tree which was only carved with butterflies split into two parts, the roots were cracking and it joined together just like how a gate supposed to look, and a bundle of light came upon us, blinding our vision altogether.

"This is the way my child, I can't come with you I have my kind to look after but all I can give you a single piece of advice, Raziel knows everything about everyone and especially about... You. He will tell you more about yourself, that you still are not aware of. God will bless you my child." she said with a little sorrow and gestured for me to go inside that gate from where a lot of dazzling light was coming out. All I did was a nod and without closing my eyes I entered.
