" haa.. haa.. haa... "  

*rustle *rustle

someone run's for their life, someone who wants to scream but can't, someone who is overwhelmed by fear while running away from the 'unknown'. He see's the area in front getting opened up and stops at certain point to catch his breath. 

*pant *pant *pant

He look's behind to see if there is anyone but see's no one, then he look's up at the sky. the moon is blue and the sky is clear. 

just when he thought he was safe, a shadow figure appears and eat the whole sky. 

the two of them crossed their eye's with each other, and the shadow figure as in rage, attack him as to eat him whole. 

" AAAAAHHH... 

*rustle

*in a tired voice*

" *sigh.. again with the same dream, does that make it the 3rd time. I just can't sleep like this, if it keeps up, my health might worsen "

 Feeling displeased he gets out of the bed having messy hair's and look's at the mirror. 

" yep, not enough sleep "

he looks at the clock " it's almost 7:00 am ".

" I should get ready for school ".

with saying that, he goes to brush his teeth. 

* clang

" oh, are you awake son "

" good morning mom ".

" morning.. *gasp, oh my what happened to your eye's ".

" well... 

" hmm... is it the same thing again, you told us about that dream right, why not go get yourself check on a Psychiatric or something "

" cmon it's not that bad, don't worry "

 

saying so he walks to the bathroom and stand in front of the basin and looks in the mirror. 

*splash's water in his face*

after cleaning his face the enters the living room there he found his father sitting on the couch. 

"ah... you awake son"

"yup, awake and alive "

" sounds rough"

mom enter's the living room

" just the same dream again"

" come'on mom it's fine, you worry too much"

"now now, stop it you two" - dad say's. 

  humph "whatever"

saying that she leaves the room to prepare the breakfast, and as she leaves both father and son let out a small laugh as to making fun of her. 

"come here, breakfast's ready" mom shout's from the kitchen. 

after eating breakfast he left to school. 

" I am leaving "

" be safe ".

The place where I live is a city called ' kami ' in the northern region of india, it's a fairly big city in the state of U.K ( UTTRAKHAND), this place is also called the land of God's because most of the India's mythologies God's were either born here or are related to this place. and the population is big too, and the school I go to is the ' Indian metropolitan ' school. one of the biggest one in the world, it's always hard to roll in here and only a handful of people can do so. 

 I come from a high class family, and with my looks and intelligence I am what you'd call a chosen one. 

 .... Buttt.... Weelll... it's not always a good thing, due to my appearance people always expect something from me. 

*tak*

* someone hit from behind *

" what's up champ, how you doing "

- this energitc person is ' rahul ' , he is always lively, to the point I don't understand how is he this happy. 

" I'm just alive somehow "

" wow why the negativity, and first thing in the morning "

" well, this is just the normal me though "

*sigh

" well whatever, I'm going up ahead, catch you in class"

saying that he left with some of his friends. 

*Bell's rings and school starts*

. 

. 

. 

. 

. 

*after school*

 " I'm home"

Strange. no one's home, wonder if they went out somewhere without telling me. 

" hmm.... guess it was urgent seeing how they didn't told me about it before leaving to school"

he tried calling them but no one picked up. 

" did something came up, wherever. guess I'll watch TV then". 

*uwhaaa*

"hmm... what the"

he look's out of the window and see it's dark outside. 

"when did it become so dark outside, and when did I fell asleep, mom and dad still hasn't come. guess I'll go ahead and start preparing for dinner "

as he is about to start the preparation his jaw drops, his eyes are about to pop out as he rushes outside through the front door. 

he came outside and his whole body felt a chill as he looks up in the sky, what he sees is a dark sky and a blue moon right outside of his house. 

he speaks to himself in a shakey voice

"this- this is "

the scene in front of him was just like the one in his dreams. he could not believe what he was seeing in front of his eyes. he start to walk down his neighborhood as he calls out for others.

*buzz*buzz*

" hello, anyone here "

he rings the doorbell of others house but gains no response. 

suddenly he hear's someone's voice , the voice was telling something but he could not make any sense of it. 

he starts to walk towards his house when suddenly he hears a very loud scream. it was not the scream of a human or a animal, but it was so loud that it gave him a headache, he looks at the sky and sees the same shadow figure and that figure attack him. 

In panic he starts to run but could not outrun the figure, and gets thrown in the pitch black darkness, In the darkness, he could not see anything but he could feel the sensation of his body being torn apart. it was as if the shadow figure was trying to eat him while he was awake. 

"AAAAAA!!!! "

He screams but there is no point in doing so and soon he can't even do so. 

"Aaaaa.... 

*pant*pant*pant*

he is there, sitting there on a sofa, he looks at the clock and it's'5:00' o'clock. he looks outside the window and it's still bright outside. 

 *Bla..blaa...blaa*

TV is still on and he, as in relief says

" just a dream huh "

" I am getting tired of it, maybe I should see a psychiatric , something's better then nothing I guess "

saying so he went to the bathroom to wash up his face. 

*splash*splash*

as doing so he starts to wonder if his dreams had any meaning in it. 

" why do I see the same dream again and again, is it something meaningful. I haven't seen or read about dreams which felt real to this extent, am I suffering from some kind of disease "

while talking to himself he felt a gaze on him and in confusion he looks at his surrounding, but to his surprise finds nothing. he then to close the tap extends his hand but felt someone in front of him. 

In fear he look's at front of him and sees his own reflection in front of the mirror. but just to confirm he tries to get close to the mirror. 

suddenly he sees a monster in the mirror and jumps back a bit. 

he blinked and to his surprise there was no one there. 

" am I finally going crazy "

he told himself when the doorbell rings. 

*ting*tong*
