The damaged brains

Chapter 29 - Reality .

    

I was standing by the edge of a high cliff , and in the far distance under I saw the wild waves of the ocean hitting hard on the side of the cliff underneath , the sharp rocks appeared once and then when the waves moved back . It was a terrifying place to be , I was affraid I might fall down so I turned trying to leave .

My mother was standing a foot away from me , I was not sure what was she doing at this place and I wondered what had brought me here too .

" Mom .. we should leave , a storm is coming . " I talked to her frozen features while I looked up at the gathering heavy clouds that soon filled the bleu sky turning its gaze into a dark shade of grey .

She didn't move a muscle , instead she kept staring at me with queer eyes . I was begining to feel worried about her , we needed to leave before the storm starts on.

" Mom ! Let's go . " I reached her and at the second my hand touched her arm she moved and her eyes got wider , as if she was in a coma and my touch made the blood in her veins rush bringing her back to life .

The next second I found myself  falling in the open air after my mom pushed me hard down the edge of the cliff , my heart beats stopped and I prepared myself for my soon coming death .

Every cell in my system shutt down and as if I died out of fear before getting to the surface of the wild ocean under , it took a forever-seconds before the water exploaded under me with great force .

My back hit the surface at such a high speed it almost knocked the wind out of me , and slowly my helpless weak body sank beneath the shallows , the waters weighed down on my chest as it closed over me blocking the grey sky away , little remaining breaths I had left .. and darkness ..

I woke up gasping for air , I was surrounded by darkness , what a terrible nightmare .

I was getting used to these nightmares allready  but that one had been the worst , it was over yet in my heart I still sensed  the fear I had in the vision of me falling down the edge of the cliff  .

I called for Ian but appearatly there was no one in the room with me , I wasn't sure what time was it but I surely slept for a long while .

Turning on the light I dragged my feet slowly down the kitchen , my throat felt dry and I needed a drink .

Everybody in the house been still sleeping , it was so quiet .

I wanted to take my chance and creep upstairs to check on my mother , but she wasn't at the room she had been earlier .

My heart jumped out of fear that she might had been gone , I hadn't know what was the right thing to do and I was about to wake Ian up when I heard a noise at the end of the corridor .

I took small steps focusing my ears on the direction of the noise , it was if someone was knocking on the glass with his hands , it made a steady rythm and kept going on non stop .

The noise was coming from the shower , the door of it was locked from the outside and the keys were still hanging there .

" Mom is that you ? " I whispered through the key hole .

There was no answer , the noise did not stop though .

I turned the keys and pushed the door open only to see even more terrifying reality nightmare .

My mom was like a caged bird standing by the little glass bathroom's window , her feet were cuffed and  I realized it wasn't her hands that hit the glass constantly but her head .

A sad moan left my lungs and I placed my palm on my mouth forbidding myself from screaming , I have never in my life seen something that horrible .

My mom's skin seemed as if though it was melting off her bones , the whole odor filled my nose with a heavy smell of dead rotten animals .

Her whole skin was filled with holes and bits of her bones were showing off upon her arms , her tongue appeared from her misshapen jaw that barely hung itself in her chin  .

She mumbled under her shaking teeths words I barely heard , my heart was shattered to pieces seeing my mom like that .

" The world is cursed .. " She couldn't speak clear with the hanging what-left of lips she had on her face .

" Mom .. " tears fell down my cheeks and I couldn't help it anymore  . I wanted her back , I wished if I could hug her tight , I missed her before even she was gone and I wasn't sure for how long she still would  be . She was eating her ownself up .

" This is the end , the devil shal roam the damned earth .. " Her words were barely understood .

" Mom .. " that was the only word I kept saying in the middle of my tears .

" He's among us .. Satan escaped from his bottomless pit .. " She paused for a while then as if I was invisible she turned her face back  to the glass window and banged her head so hard against the glass .

The glass broke into pieces by the second time she banged her head , it fell on the floor underneath us .

I was paralyzed by fear , I focused my sight on the shattering pieces of glass when my mom set a loud evil laugh .

She sounded insane , like someone who completely lost his mind .

" You are cursed .. " she said with a laugh , her voice changed .

I backed away like a frightened little girl , never had I ever expected myself to be calling " cursed " ! And there I heard my mother telling me I'm cursed .

My knees wouldn't stand my weight , and as if my legs got broken I fell helplessly at the floor , I felt a sharp pain as parts of my bare legs made contact with the shattering glass.

Tears blocked my blury vision and I gave up on this whole world , I wasn't affraid of my mother anymore and if she was going to kill me I'd die happily.
