A not so chance meeting...

Walking down to the corner store to get a pack of smokes, I happened to notice a dark figure creeping a few yards behind me. This didn't set right in my stomach so I hurried my steps. Suddenly a man appeared a couple of feet in front of me. He was tall and built, well from what I could make out, he was wearing a black hooded robe.  I looked around to try to find a exit path, but I was surrounded. These guys were a good foot or so taller and obvious fast. I thought I was done, dead.. So I did the only thing I could I reached in my pocket grabbed a joint and lite it.. If I'm gonna die I might as well be high, right..

"What is it you fella's want from me?" I asked

The one in front of me spoke in a booming deep voice. "I want you join us. You have,    let say unique abilities." As he talked the ones around me slowly merged into the guy in front.

"And what would those be? Talking to animals I'm not Doctor Dolittle.. Who are you and how do you know about me?"

"All in do time my boy all in do time, but for now my name is Perceval. As of know about you I've been looking after you since you were born.." He said as he step aside and started walking towards the store..


"Wait what?" I asked jogging to his side. "I've never seen you before!" 


"Yes you have just not as I am" he swing behind me and my high school history teacher (Mr. Bolton) appears on the other side of me. "You see?" swirling around again my old neighbor from college appears. 


"No way! That's impossible!" I thought 


"Yet you just witnessed it happened." Perceval said  "It's not the herb your smoking, boy. I am real and you did just see that.. As he spoke the last few words the robe fell to the ground and a crow hopped out and flew away. I heard his voice in my mind I heard "We will meet again.." I stood their stun for a minute. Thinking Damn someone laced my shit. But yet their on the ground was still his black robe. I picked it up, got my smokes and went home. 


"I need some sleep." I thought as I climbed into bed..
