 * CHINA **

Cold darkness going deeper and deeper, it’s an endless journey of evil. Light; Odysseus opened his eyes abruptly. The feeling of shakiness and swaying took over him. His surroundings became evident: a massive ship with workers attending to his bedside. It was overwhelming not knowing where he was, lost at sea. Rapidly he stood up out of the bed and rushed out into open blue skies, with no cloud in sight. Eyes were burning a hole through the back of his head, for the crew was giving blank stares. Odysseus takes in the scenery, finally coming to the conclusion that he is lost at sea. The men on the ship treated Odysseus like a god, for months they traveled until one night.

The ship creaked as the boat swayed back and forth, furniture moving with the slow rhythm of the waves of Cleo the sea goddess. The wind was mistaken for the howling of wolves. Brave Odysseus checked through the window of his room into Cleo’s turmoil. What he saw did not please ill-fated Odysseus, a typhoon was approaching closer and closer, shocked Odysseus rushed outside into hell where Captain Ruby was yelling in a deep raspy voice. Odysseus screamed until his lungs were exhausted, but by the time he took his last breath, it was too late. Cleo’s brutal typhoon with its deathly waves gobbled the ship, even so did a toddler with their favorite candy on Halloween. Everything went cold and dark...

The soft crash was heavenly to ill-fated Odysseus for the waves of the China Sea brought him to shore. He was spared by Cleo, daughter of Poseidon. He is greeted by a light mist of rain and humid temperatures. The light chilled rain is cooling his body from the blistering humidity. He looks all round him then film covers his eyes, and everything goes into a blur. He is awoken by a beautiful goddess who wakes him up with a light musical laughter. Her enchanting laughed reminded Odysseus of heaven a place where finely everything was peaceful. In a high child like voice she spoke Odysseus brave soul you have been spared, you’re now on the coastal region of Hong Kong.

The striking goddess drove Odysseus to tears, her voice was so soft and it was like a stunning harmony of people singing. She told him that he will go onto mainland and find a village of bright lights and festivities. He should not be alarmed for this will lead him on a journey. In a cold hard voice she told him to listen to her prophecy, for if he doesn’t there will be deathly consequences. Light warmth took over his body curing him of any damages from the accident. He now had the strength to walk. As he turned to see who this goddess the sultry air circled, and she was gone with a high giggle.

Odysseus was walking for what seemed like 5 days, when he saw a red light. He started to walk with a purpose towards the beam of light. Has he got closer he heard what sounded like gongs, drums, and cheering. When he approached the village he thought he was in a dream. Everyone was singing and dancing with props of bright colors. It was a completely different world than what he’d been through, a life on little worries and excitement. People greeted him with smiles and welcomed him as if he’d lived there is entire life. Amazed with the beautiful architecture he was interrupted by a group of hands pulling in backwards.

Brave Odysseus was brought to Stanley prison for terrorists. None of the guards would listen to him as he pleaded is innocence. He was thrown into a cold cell where it was damp and dark. Odysseus yelled out for the gods and goddesses to tell him what he had done wrong. He had paced back and forth for hours. He laid across giving up any hopes of getting home. He closed his eyes when he was broken up by the captivating melodic voice. In a split second is eyes were open. But her looked are what shocked him. Next to him was an old hideous woman, but he knew it was the goddess in a different form. She spoke in a whisper to him clear instructions on how he was to get out of prison. When all the guards are off their post she would lead him outside. Then, he would run back to the shores of where he started from where a boat with a crew would be. She told him that he will lose his way at sea and end up in a new unfamiliar place to him. After she said her last words of advice she disappeared, and left Odysseus in the dark.

The ground was frigid compared to the warmth of the air, it kept him cool. As time passed throughout the bright day and turned into the shadow of night, Odysseus was planning how he would get to shore for the boat that would be waiting for him. The buckles of the guard’s boots were clicking and then the door slammed shut. Odysseus quickly stood up, when beautiful Cleo led him the way out of the prisons territory. Odysseus was now on the run to get back to the ship. He traveled for days, when he finally reached a large ship that looked untouched. He knew he had found the shore that she spoke of in a hurry he boarded the ship.

On board the crew was preparing everything for the journey at sea. Odysseus walked around not noticing yells of heads up. All of a sudden a block hit his head and he was knocked unconscious. His world went into an endless journey of darkness.
