Change 1/1

It happened suddenly when it happened. We had no warning. No warning at all. Just suddenly it all changed.

Well, I say suddenly. It actually happened over the course of a day or so. The roads were the first to go, I watched as they morphed, gradually lightening, softening, becoming nothing more than dirt tracks. Cars got stuck in deep pot holes and were left there, their drivers and passengers falling asleep at the wheel, collapsing forwards.

I was the only one awake, the only who saw what was happening. I don't know why, but I was, and it was what I'd always dreamed of.

The planes went next. Why it went in such a strange order I'll never know, but one was flying over, must have been on autopilot, and I watched it shift and change. The wings spread, turning into great wings of glimmering red. I felt myself growing lighter, I suppose it must have been gravity weakening to allow these things to fly. I don't know what happened to the people in them, maybe they went to help make its mind or something, but to be honest if I had died in the transition that's how I'd've wanted it. The beast beat its wings, and soared off, spraying fire before it across the sky.

Next it was the cars. I still couldn't describe exactly what happened to them, but where there were cars, horses now stood for a moment before the galloped off, away from the roads, leaving their old passengers lying in the dirt. I noticed that a few of the horses had wings, or a single white horn.

And the rest came quickly, the buildings shifted into forests, tree-houses, basic villages with crude huts. Clothes became old-fashioned, some with armour and weapons, others mere peasants.

All because it was my dream. I don't know why I was the one that tipped the scale, or anything else. But this is my world, I hope you enjoy what it has become.
