Story -

Forget

Color. Thats all Kaito saw, he realized he was running in tall grass. 
There was flowers all around him. 
Trees were sprouting out of the ground and swaying gently in the wind. 
The sun was casting bright color all over the dewed green grass, which sparkled with every glaze of the wind.
A pond nearby glistened like sparkles and occasional splashes appeared in it from where fish would jump out.
He felt peace and happiness. A feeling in which he hadnt felt in a while. 
Suddenly he heard his name being called from afar, followed by another voice calling out "Daddy!". Kaito  glanced to the side and saw Saka and a little girl waving for him to come. He smiled then bound towards them. "hurry up!" Saka called out. "i'm trying!" Kaito yelled back. Suddenly the sky turned dark and the trees began to quake.
Kaito continued to run as words fell from the clouds speaking out to him. He dodged 'Pain' then 'anger', next was 'cold' after that 'darkness' fell in front of him. 'distress' fell behind him along with 'suffering'.
'Anguish'
'Ache'
'Discompose' 
'Loss' 
'Vengeful'
The words continued to fall heavily, when suddenly he got hit and tumbled to the ground. The word 'Forget' lay beside him. He looked out to where Saka and the little girl once was, but were no more...but instead a tombstone. Saka was crying over it with a handful of flowers in her clutch.  On the tombstone was the word Forget. 
The wind suddenly picked up and blew dust around. Making it hard to see anything past 2 feet. Kaito stood up and called out for Saka. No answer. 
He ran towards the tree, which was the only thing he could see. Tripping over the tombstone, Kaito looked down to see wilted flowers on the ground. "Here" a voice in the wind whispered. Kaito looked up and saw a spirit girl, like the one he saw with Saka earlyer, staring down at him. She gestured to the tree trunk that held the branch she was perched on, Kaito looked at it and saw two words engraved in it 'Future' and 'Past' 
"what does this mean?" he asked "you must find out on your own..." she whispered as her body faded into the air. "Wait! come back tell me what these mean!". The dust got caught up in his throat and choked him up. Kaito started coughing hard as the world became black.

Kaito gasped and shot up in his bed. He looked around to see his room, dimly lit in the moonlight. "It was only a dream" he breathed. Slinking back down in his covers "It was that same dream" He glanced over at his wife and saw her sleeping. The sadness returned as he remembered what happened two months earlyer...when they lost their baby girl... 
He closed his eyes and tried to push out the sadness in his head, but it only came back.  "why did she have to go?" he asked to no one. 
Once again opening his eyes he looked across the room when something caught his attention; a little letter on the dresser across the room, flapping slightly in the gentle breeze of the air conditioning vent above it. With curiosity, he got up and stode over to it. To Kaito it said on the front. He didnt recognize the handwritting. He gently opened it, the first thing he saw was a picture of the little girl in the dream, then words right beside it 'Not all dreams end in nightmares...forget the past and seek the future...Good will come.'  Kaito read over that sentence 3 times before setting the letter down. While placing it on the table, he noticed something sticking out from underneath a folded up sheet of paper. It was a pregnantcy tester. 'What is this doing up here?' he thought as he picked it up.  He looked at it just for the heck of it, and to his surprise. It said positive. He looked back at Saka and then back at the stick. The image of the tree with the words Future and Past engraved in it popped in his head, then the words on the letter 'Forget the past and seek the future...Good will come.' He now realized what this meant...

The next morning. Kaito and Saka were up now. Kaito was in the living room and Saka was in the kitchen fixing breakfast "Saka, did you leave me a letter on the dresser last night?" Kaito called from the livingroom "no" Saka called back. she walked out of the kitched and leaned against the wall, wiping her hands on her apron. "are you sure?" he asked "yeah. i'm sure" Kaito got up "follow me".
He lead her to the room and was about to show her the letter, but it wasnt there. "It was right here" he said, examining the dresser "honey, you were probably dreaming. I have to get back to the breakfast, okay" she was about to walk away when he picked up the pregnatcy tester and thrust it into her hand. She looked at it and gasped "how did you find this?!" "it was on the dresser with that letter i saw last night" Saka stared at him "is this true Saka...are you pregnant?" she looked down at the stick in her hand "yes...i was going to surprise you, but you found out....what did that letter say on it?" "It said "Not all dreams end in nightmares...forget the past and look on to the future..good will come....or something like that" Saka looked closely at him "did you have that dream again?" "yes..." "Kaito..that was a sign." Kaito stared in her eyes "i think it was"

9 months later. 
Kaito sat on Saka's bed who was holding a tiny baby girl, sleeping in her arms. She looked exactly like the girl in his dreams "What will we name her?" "i think Susumu" Kaito said, looking at the baby's face "Advance, proceed" Saka said softly, knowing the meaning of the name associated with Kaito. "Thats a good name" "I have advanced, i have forgotten...i will now proceed"...

Okay, I'm reeeaallllyyy sorry for the grammar problems!!!
