The Lost Night Of Andrea Part 2

She turned towards her left and right.

“What the hell?” Andrea startled with a pale face.

Andrea was standing in the middle of the long tunnel all alone.

She looked for the switches which she turned on but could not locate them. She had a glimpse of the tunnel. The tunnel seems to be age-old. The structures were damaged and could see tiny plants rooted everywhere. Some of the lights were fused. Though the tunnel looks hoary, there is no single crack or hole to see the outer world. She is unaware of whether it’s a day or night. 

On a whim, the tunnel lights turned off.

“Oooo…”, screamed Andrea.

She thought she will be back in her room from this nightmare. There was neither a ray of hope nor a ray of light to glow her life. After some time, the lights started to flicker on one after the other. Few lights were fused and the tunnel seems dark partially in that place. 

Andrea sat on the road under the shade of light. Her body was brittle and could not keep a step forward. She is unsure about which side to walk on as both the end of the tunnel seems to be endless. Closing her eyes for some time she calmed her mind to think about what to do next. 

“I have some light now. Soon everything will be alright Andrea.”, telling to herself she relaxed a while. In the deep sleep, she hears a reverberation of the canter of the horse. With blurry vision, rubbing her eyes with the dirty hands, she saw a man in black riding a horse coming towards her from one end of the tunnel. Smile struggled to take place in her lips. 

She guessed that man is heading towards her only. Exhaustedly, she stood up to receive the man’s help.

The sound of horse canter is very near her and in excitement, she was preparing herself to make a conversation with the gentleman.

“Hey lady…”, heard a hostile voice.

The man was fully covered in a black overcoat with the hat on the head sitting on a dark black horse. His well-built physique and hostile voice were a little unnerving for Andrea, still, she has no other option left than to take his help. 

Though he is very near to her, Andrea could not see his face clearly.

Before she could utter a help, the man started the conversation.

“You may need this”, said the stranger handling a jug of water.

Andrea without any hesitation had the water and quenched her thirst.

“Lady, I really admired you fighting on the battlefield with all men who are really equipped. I would like to serve you for the bravery”, said the stranger.

Andrea could not understand even a bit what the stranger was even trying to tell.

What are you telling Mr…? asked Andrea

Swiftly the stranger took a rod from his back and hit Andrea.

Andrea fainted and fell down on the road.

Quickly he took her in his horse and started.

Andrea felt like someone threw her down. She thought she is back in her room from the nightmare and slowly opened her eyes.

She saw millions of stars were twinkling in the sky.

She heard sea waves and a cool breeze was touching her skin.

Unable to reminisce what is happening to her, Andrea woke up slowly. Swiftly a flashlight flashed on her face. It’s a light from a lighthouse. She managed to climb up and see where she is. 

She was even more confused after known that she is on a ship. 

There came a man who dressed up in a soldier dress and kneeled down in front of Andrea and said,” We apologies for kidnapping you, Princess. Since this is the instruction we got from our Prince, we are forced to do it. Do not want to mistake us. We are here to help and serve you, said the soldier and asked Andrea to follow him. 

Andrea suddenly shouted who the hell are you and what are you doing to me, please let me go to my place.

The soldier asked Andrea to take a rest in the room leaving her in a room inside the ship.

Andrea looked around the room to escape and she saw a beautiful antique photo frame. She went closer and saw the photo and got shocked. She saw herself well dressed like a princess.

With lots of confusion, she touched herself and felt the changes in her body. In the near mirror, she looked at herself. 

She was shocked, she looked like a princess wearing a long gown with the crown in the head. Her look was totally different and puzzled. 

The same soldier knocked on the room door and said, “Princess, we are going to reach the place. I take leave.”

The ship reached the coast. Two of the soldiers welcomed her like a queen. They took her to a place that is very quiet and isolated. They walked a few distances and headed towards a forest on the coastline. 

With lots of confusion and unaware of what’s happening Andrea was following them to know what’s really happening to her. 

One of the soldiers pushed the slab in the ground and asked Andrea to step down to head to the underground room. They gave the fire stick and asked her to go down and wait for the prince.

Andrea lighted the fire one by one and headed to the room.

Sometime later, a lady came down and greeted her.

Andrea asked what’s happening and why she is here?

The lady servant replied, “I’m not supposed to talk to you princess. Please have this food and take a rest. You will be sent back soon.” 

Keeping the food on the table the lady left the room.

Andrea, waited for few hours to check whether someone is coming to see her. She again climber up and knocked the slab. A soldier opened the door and asked what she wants.

Andrea asked him the same questions she asked the lady. The soldiers too gave the same reply. And they asked her to take the food and take a rest.

After returning down, she had the food and headed to bed to take a rest for some time…

A few hours later she woke up from the bed and saw the room was dark.

When she got down from bed, she was hit by the side table. Suddenly she felt she is in her room and switched her table lamp. She laughed heavily recognizing she is in her own room and out from the nightmare. 

After lighting all the lights in her room, she felt relieved. 

She went to the patio to relieve her and to make sure she is in her house.

She relaxed and sat on the swing taking a deep breath.

But what happened to me, those things don’t seem to be only dreams, I really saw the tunnel, men in the horse, soldiers in ship and lady with food, who are they? Andrea perplexed.

The same husky voice murmured in her ears. Close your eyes, Andrea, I will tell you what happened. Andrea closed her eyes following the instruction in eagerness.

This morning you made called me using an Ouija board and asked me several questions, though I answered everything correctly you failed to believe me. So, in turn, I asked what should I make you believe? 

You asked me to prove that what I was in the last two birth and how I died?

Since you asked you will be shown that tonight, I said.

You were a warrior in your last birth and fought against women's rights and freedom. You fought against a king ruler and gained the victory. Defeating you was a tougher task for them. They planned and killed your horse by poisoning it. Your horse fainted before you enter the tunnel. One side of the tunnel lights was fused by them so that no one should enter to escape you. When you were all alone and tired after fighting in the war field, a man in black came in a horse from their side and pretended like helping you and killed you by hitting your head with the rod. Your body was thrown into the middle of the sea.

And in the previous one to this, you were born as a princess. You and a prince from the enemy family of your father were in deep love and both of the parents were opposing just because not only as your parents but as a separate king dynasty. There were ruling problems in between them and they did not accept your love. The king, dad of the prince you loved planned to kidnap you and kill you.

They kidnapped you when you were alone and took you to their underground place and poisoned you through food. You ate that food because you believed that the plan was set up by the prince, but actually, he doesn’t know that you were killed. Your body was fired.

When you were in a place you never know what you were lived as you saw them as Andrea but they know you as a warrior Alexa and Princess Ciara. 

Now you believe in me, Andrea? Asked the same husky voice.

Tears rolled out in Andrea's cheek and with a trembling hand, she wiped the tears and replied, yes, I do…

When you believe in this, I hope you will believe that you won’t be alive after knowing about your last birth secrets. Have a nice day! Will Meet you soon… 

Andrea refused to open her eyes in fear believing that something may happen to her. She stood up from the swing to move to the room, suddenly she slipped the floor and fell backside. From the 8th floor, Andrea fell down and died.
