Lost in Time

Stormra's POV
I was working on lyrics and chords with my cousin for our demo track. My short 5’4” frame making me able to swing my legs from my sitting position on top of our piano in the living room while tapping out the melody with my red pen. That’s when a song by Metallica came on the stereo we had playing background music while we worked. Now I don’t know about you, but when I feel the urge to dance, it’s something I absolutely have to do.
Jumping off the piano I yelled at my cousin, “Drake, come dance with me!” as I turned up the volume on the stereo, the music slowly getting louder.
He just rolled his dark eyes at me and smiled from where he was sitting on the couch with both his acoustic and electric guitars, “No. I’m just going to sit here and watch you embarrass yourself for a bit.”
“Thank you so, so much,” I said sarcasm dripping from my words before sticking my tongue out at him like a little kid. “Your loss!” I shouted before starting to jump up and down banging my head to the beat of the music.
Drake started laughing at my ridicules dance moves as the song went on. “Stormra, you get worse every time you even attempt to dance.”
“Now that’s just plain rude,” I said looking up my long black hair now a tangled mess. I couldn’t help, but grin though because I know what he said was true.
“Guys, turn that down. I have something I want to show you,” My brother said running down the stairs with his laptop. He sat down next to Drake after moving the acoustic guitar out of the way.
I walked over to the couch and stood behind it facing the laptop after turning down the music. “Alright Nate, what do you want us to see?” I asked glancing at his laptop for a moment.
“Just listen,” he said pressing the play button on a music video.
Doing as he said, I closed my eyes as I listened to the song. After awhile I was singing along to the chorus with my eyes still closed, “One final fight, for this tonight. Woah…With knives and pens we made our plight.” It was after I sang those lines that I finally opened my eyes, and I saw who was singing.
Next thing I know, memories that weren’t my own started filling my head. I had to take a step back as my mind was trying to figure out what was going on. Then all of a sudden, everything went black.
