After Mr. Luke had told me to go to sleep I did. I can't help feeling like I knew some of what was being said before the whole conversation.
I wake up and the place is different. It is dark, and looks as if it had been abandon. I get out of the bed and the walls look white, I touch it and the dust falls to the ground in clumps. The wall was actually gray, but the amount of dust and dirt caked onto the wall changes the color. I look at the floor, the floor is also white. I had thought that I was bare foot, but I had black combat boots on my feet. They looked huge and I seemed taller than I was. I walk out of the room. The dust is piling on my shoes like snow and sticking to the bottom and to the floor. It's hard for me to believe that this place was abandon. I can't imagine something like this. I walk down the hall, there is mice scurrying across the floor with something dangling out of its mouth. I look into a room and there is so many bugs, I see tons of spiders. There are many webs and it seems like I am walking through a tunnel of white.
Something vibrates in my back pocket, I pull out a small device and turn on the screen. It's a phone with a single message displaying on the screen. "If you run I'll find you. Those demons can't help you in a world they don't exist. If you scream you are mine, hide all you want but one day I won't let you go." The sender name above it says, Justice, and I don't know what to believe. I click on that message and it opens the phone and shows other messages. I see a picture that looks to be an older version of me and Leo. A message above it says, "If you love him, stay away." A picture above that looks to be us kissing. I find that repulsive and a joke, what kind of cruel trick is this.
I begin to cry wondering what all is going on, this cruel joke has to end. I continue heading downstairs, there seems to be nothing. A door way is blocked by the webs and dust that has collected over time. The door is the only thing without dust or webs, and about 2 feet of the floor in front of it. The door is wooden and has a window, but the window looks shattered and all I can see is the glass webs from where it was hit. I open the door and head out, the part of the floor with no dust is the same length as the bottom of the door. I walk out, looking at the blue sky and the trees.
I am surrounded by so many tree's and I don't even know how I got here. The sun is still up, and the time on the phone says that it is noon. There is no day it just says the time. I run through the forest of trees and everything. The tree's seem to be unending. No matter where I run I can't escape them, I feel as if the trees are grabbing me and pulling me into the forest, not letting me leave. I continue to run, and eventually I fall off a cliff. I wasn't looking at the ground, I was trying to get out. I had fallen off the 3 foot cliff onto a hill. When I fell I didn't catch my footing at all so I rolled all the way to the bottom of the hill.
There were no more trees surrounding me, there was nothing but an open field of grass. It was hard to believe after rolling for what felt like ten minutes, and being left entirely dirty. That this was all there was to see. I got up, and a pain shot up through my right leg. The ankle was rolled and was swelling. I tried to walk and I couldn't the pain was so immense that I couldn't bare it. I also realized that I had cut my legs, the combined pain and the sight of the blood. It was all too much for me at that moment and I passed out. I didn't understand what had happened. It didn't make sense to me at all.
When I woke up again I was in a bed, there was no dust, no webs. It looked the same as before I had fallen asleep. I heard Luke yelling downstairs, "Anastasia come on and get breakfast its already the after noon. I moved out of bed and a pain shot up my leg.
I didn't understand, I had yelled at Luke, "Um... Something is wrong, my leg it really hurts and I can't move." I'm crying the pain is all too much. Leo and Luke run into the room.
"WHAT THE HELL DID YOU DO?" Luke yells, but there is no response. I'm crying and the only one in the room. No one else is there. "ZACK COME ON OUT. I KNOW YOU ARE HERE, I ALLOWED YOU TO COME SO PLEASE STEP OUT."
Behind them is another person who looks about the same as Leo, only different. "Stop yelling, there is no point to keep screaming. Plus it wasn't me, so stop." The boy was calm and walked over to the bed. He pulled off the sheets exposing a rolled right ankle that was throbbing. It was swelled up, with many shades of purple and blue. It was a horrible looking bruise. On both legs were many cuts. My night gown had gone to my knee's so I didn't know if the cuts went up my thighs, but they seemed to stop below my knee. It was strange to me, I didn't understand anything that was going on. I remember that dream, but I thought it was all real. The pain was so real, I could hear the sound of the wind, and feel the cool breeze on my skin.
"Well it seems that this happened in her sleep. And by the looks of it she has been marked by a taken.... which is bad." Zack is looking at Luke.
"Well fuck." He put his hands over his mouth than walked out. "I'm sorry."
Leo walked over to me and asked how it hurt, he touched my leg and I screamed. The pain had gotten worse and I passed out. Everything had gone black. Nothing made sense and nothing seemed to be happening. Everything was black, I had no feeling, it was as if there was no pain, no nothing.
I thought that was the end of what was going on, but it might have just the beginning.
