 Title

In the early smog of the morning Luke hustles along the crown to reach his public school in time. Maintaining a steady pace he walks with long strides. Its easy for his slender shape to slip past most of the people. As he passes the his favorite café in the town, inhaling the delicious aroma of the fresh muffins his foot slips. And as he tries to gain his balance he feels his body becoming weightless and engulfed in dense smoke. 

Luke suddenly hits hard ground, but when he looks around him his eyes are met with a strange visual. He is unable to see anything clearly and by the looks of it he seems to be underground. He gets up and is greeted by a tall figure. The man wearing a hooded dark garb, says

"Tell me your name, child" Luke is frightened and mutters "Wha..where am I?

"You are in my office." The hood is slowly lifted, revealing a pale man, with long black hair, and his face surrounded by a long full-black beard. Luke notices a small tatoo on the side of the mans face, and his eyes seem to have a eerie glow to them. He looks down at Luke and askes sternly, "The name, boy?"

"I'm Riddle... Luke Riddle"

"Ah, Luke Riddle; welcome to my place of business. I am sort of a sorcerer, lets say. I am curious to know how you came into my presence just now,.... so I may help you further." When the man speaks it is like his words are like molasses flowing over him, yet he feels eerie, a supernatural presence, as if the man was some higher force than him. Luke feels a chill down his spine. But tries to play it cool.

Luke laughs " A sorcerer??!! Really? You think I'm an idiot? Go tell your jokes to kids, man. Listen I really need to reach school in time, so please show me the way outta here. I must agree your little trick to get me here was cool, but I gotta go man."

"Trick, eh? I don't think I like your tone, boy. If you ever want to leave this room, you will do as I say Now, I have a few questions to ask, if you don't mind."

Luke looks shocked as the door behind the man seemed to close on its own. He is trapped, with the strange man. "Question one: have you ever experienced the supernatural before?"

Luke mumbles " Supernatural?.. I.. I'm sorry for whatever I did Mister, but please I need to go. I don't what is happening right now..."

The man laughs quite manically. He then replies, "Oh, but you did nothing...yet. I was simply testing how strong your mind is. And I must say for someone no apparent training its rather strong. Alright then question 2, tell me about your family. Any details you can provide would be good."

"Who are you and why do you want to know about me? I swear I just stumbled here by accident, really don't know how. And I have no family to call my own."

" Oh you stumbled in here all right..."

He leans in, and puts aside his dark hood. His face almost looks... ethereal. He says-

"Tell me, Luke, what is your worst fear? Want to know mine? ....Death."

Luke suddenly realizes that this man

Morning spurt of knowledge.

The epitome of life at its peak is just a hallucination of the perpetual state of change that is ever constant in the wide expanse of nature. Who are we, but lowly maggots on the face of the grand universe to question the working of its fine tuned system.
