Abraham turned, trying to see who was speaking. But there was no one in sight.
"Who are you?" Abraham called out. "Where are we?"
There was no answer. But as they stood there, frozen in uncertainty, the landscape around them began to change once again.
This time, they found themselves standing in a vast, empty space. The walls and floor were made of a gleaming white material, and the air was filled with a faint humming noise.
Abraham looked around, trying to understand what's going on. But as he turned, he realized that he was alone.
His friends were nowhere to be seen.
"Guys?" Abraham called out, his voice echoing off the walls. "Where are you?"
But there was no answer.
Abraham frantically searched the empty space, calling out for his friends. But there was no response. He was completely alone.
Suddenly, the humming noise stopped, and the room fell silent. Abraham's heart pounded in his chest as he waited for something to happen.
And then, a figure appeared before him.
It was a woman with long, flowing hair and piercing green eyes. She was dressed in a flowing white gown, and her presence seemed to radiate an otherworldly energy.
"Welcome, Abraham," she said, her voice like music. "I have been waiting for you."
Abraham swallowed hard, trying to find his voice. "Who are you?, Where are my friends?" he demanded.
The woman smiled. "My name is Arianna
and your friends are safe," she said. "For now. But you, Abraham, are a special case. You have a gift, a gift that could change the course of history."
Abraham shook his head, confused. "What gift?" he asked.
The woman's eyes seemed to bore into his soul. "The gift of the Dream Walker," she said. "You have the power to shape the dream world, to create and destroy. And with that power comes great responsibility."
Abraham's mind reeled as he tried to process what the woman was telling him. He had always known that he had a special connection to the dream world, but he had never realized the extent of his powers.
"What do you want from me?" Abraham asked, trying to keep his voice steady.
The woman's smile grew wider. "I want to teach you how to harness your powers," she said. "I want to show you the true potential of the Dream Walker. And I want to help you unlock the secrets of the dream world."
Abraham hesitated, unsure of what to do. But as he looked into the woman's eyes, he saw something there that gave him hope. Something that made him believe that she was telling the truth.
"Okay," Abraham said finally. "I'll do it. I'll learn how to harness my powers."
The woman's smile grew even wider, and she reached out and took Abraham's hand.
"Then let us begin," she said. "The dream world awaits."
The woman led him to a vast, open plain, where the sky was a deep shade of purple. The air was filled with a sweet, musical hum, and the ground was covered in a thick, velvety moss.
"Here, you will learn to harness your powers," the woman said, her eyes gleaming with intensity. "You will learn to control the dream world."
And with that, Abraham's training began.
He spent what felt like months learning the intricacies of the dream world. He practiced manipulating reality, creating entire landscapes with just a thought. He learned to control the creatures of the dream world, bending them to his will.
But despite the intensity of his training, Abraham felt a sense of peace, a sense of belonging. He knew that he was meant to be here, that he was meant to wield these powers.
Finally, after what felt like an eternity, the mysterious woman nodded in approval. "You are ready, Abraham," she said. "It's time for you to return to your friends."
And with that, Abraham felt himself being pulled back through the dream world, back to the real world.
He opened his eyes to find himself standing in the middle of his friends, his friends staring at him in shock.
"Abe, where did you go?" Sophia asked, her voice trembling with worry. "You just disappeared!"
Abraham shook his head, feeling a sense of disorientation. "I...I don't know," he said. "I was just gone."
Maya frowned. "But you were only gone for like, two seconds," she said.
Abraham's eyes widened in shock. Two seconds? But he had spent what felt like months in the dream world!
He shook his head, trying to process what had just happened. He knew that he had been changed, that he had been given a great gift.
And he knew that they would never see the world in the same way again.
