Premonitions Novels & Stories

Still, here I was, running through an unknown but known forest with the crimson-eyed predator running beside me. What did it mean? Something showed me this very night before it happened, as if in a warning. But a warning of what? The predator wasn't an enemy, this I knew for sure. I had no powers, and yet, I had this. This strange dream wasn't a dream but a premonition. If I had nothing else, I had this: the gift of sight. I knew I could trust this.

She sighed, a long sigh that seemed to carry the weight of the entire day, and rested her head on my shoulder, her hair brushing my neck. “You know me so well.” “Yeah. I do.” I put my arm around her shoulders. “So talk.” She remained silent for a moment, her fingers playing with the hem of my shirt, twisting and untwisting the fabric. “Today was a strange day.” She began, her voice lower than before. “Since the moment I woke up, I felt something… a premonition. You know when you feel that something bad is going to happen, but you don’t know what?”

20 years in the future. It turns out that day that Rayna and Maddi had those flashes, they were in fact premonitions. And they were of their future. Over the years they learned to deal with the little glimpes they were shown. And as the kids got older they understood better about not showing too much of the future.

"What's the big difference?" "Predictive Seers spot what's bound to occur. Set futures. Key moments. Preventive ones see what might go down. Options. Decisions. They catch risks early. Sound alarms before things crash." "So I'm the preventive type?" "Looks that way. The vision Lila threw at you? That was a potential path. Not locked in. Not certain. Just what could happen if choices went wrong." That clicked. The vision had come off like an alert. A heads-up story. Not some fixed fate.

Was that a premonition? "What's wrong, my sweet little panda?" Furo rolled over onto his stomach and caressed Kole's bare back. "I, I think I just had a dream premonition? Zeus and my mom were surrounded by a huge crowd. He showed her someone he held hostage and she gave herself up. I saw red and white strands before darkness blanketed me and I was nowhere. I'm not sure if it was a stress induced nightmare or a premonition." Furo sat up and put his arm around Kole's waist. "What does your gut tell you?"

You ever have those moments in life that feel like the calm before the storm? That’s what I’m realising yesterday was. Yesterday was filled with joy and celebration, but ever since I woke up this morning I’ve felt the clouds of impending doom lingering over me. Bad things are coming. Call it wolf senses, women’s intuition or whatever you like, but I can feel in my very bones that trouble is waiting for me just around the corner.

“Stay here, spend some time with my family instead.” “Waiting an extra day to interrogate him can’t hurt, surely,” my mother says. I push the plate of half-eaten food away, and drink the coffee the Omega puts before me. “I don’t know. I don't think so. We have no idea what the cabal is planning.” “You haven’t had one of your premonitions again?” my mother asks. “No. I only seem to get them when Willow is in some kind of life-threatening danger. I think The Goddess sends them.” I look at my mate who is staring off into the distance. “What do you think?”

I just have a premonition that something bad will happen soon. It's like the feeling you have before the storm when everything is calm and quiet and within seconds the weather changes radically. Black clouds cover the sky and heavy rain falls on the ground. Of course the rain is refreshing but makes you soaked to the core until you get home. Am I ready to face difficulties again? Will I be able to overcome them this time? Oh! I don't know. Too many thoughts for one day! I'd better stop worrying and enjoy the evening.

I hardly have slept for images of that dead girl and the fear of every noise. While I worry for him, I also fear him coming for me. Every sound or shadow cause me to lurch and jump. I have this feeling of an impending doom, like someone is out for me or going to betray me. Barima had told me once that before she got her premonitions, that she developed a strong paranoia, and that paranoia turned out to be advanced intuition. This does little to comfort me, only adding to my ever growing list of worries. Along with Noxodius possibly appearing out of nowhere.

A chill ran down my spine. If that was true, then whatever had happened to Viola was no small matter. The bond in my chest pulsed again. This time it was gentle. Almost like the touch of tiny fingers, not yet strong enough to grasp. I stopped again, my breath hitching. The thunder in my chest grew louder. “What is this?” I whispered, clutching my rapidly beating heart. Jacob answered in a voice barely above silence. “A premonition.” “A premonition of what?” I frowned, still confused.
