I woke up in the middle of the night. The same thing woke me as every night. I looked myself in the mirror. God, I look terrible. My hair was messy and my eyes were drained. I created a spark of fire in my hand and went downstairs. I need a glass of water. Water. My eyes felt heavy. Water. My feet slowly made their way down. Water. My mouth was dry. Water. I entered the kitchen. Water. Crash. There was something in the kitchen. Water. It broke a plate. Water. I threw the fire in my hand at the kitchen. Water. The fire disappeared. Water. I fell to the floor. I passed out...

"Is she alive?" I heard a voice say. It was a young male's voice. "W-wa-ater" I barely spoke. Then I felt a fire in my body being put out. I drank water. I slowly got up and tried to look around. My vision was blurry, but I saw a small shadow of someone. As my vision got clearer I saw the person had horns and a tail. I jumped and leaned against the wall.

"Who are you?" I angrily asked the person while holding a fire in my arm. "Uh..." the person stuttered. "What are you doing in my house?" I continued to whisper yell. "I just saved your life!" I stopped in my tracks. They did save my life. I got closer to the person. I held up the fire in front of them. He was a small blond boy with a tail, horns and claws. "What are you doing in my house?" I asked him again. "I... I-I was thirsty." He answered. I looked at him with a sceptical look."Why didn't you drink at your house?"

"I ran away from mine..."

I wish I could do that...

"Why didn't you drink at your house?" she asked me. 'Tommy, make something up quick' Dream whispered to me. "I ran away from mine..." I said. 'Did I just say that out loud?'
'You idiot!' Dream was yelling into my ear. When she heard that her expression changed. She was surprised.

"What's your name?" I said in a more friendly voice. "My name is Tommy, yours?"
"My name is Nikki."
"Who old are you Tommy? I'm 15." I asked him. "I'm 16." He answered. "How that your awake at this hour?" He jumped on the table. "Well, I had a nightmare, so I came down to get some water."

I felt a bit weird, because I never talked to anyone except my family...

And that bastard who married my sister.

"How come you ran away?"
"I'm looking for my brother."
"Maybe I could come with you." Did I just say that. I quickly covered my mouth.

"Really? Why would you do that?" he looked at me.

Because I miss my sister...

"I've just never left the house and I want to see the outside world." Words just came out of me.

"Even if you'll run away from your family?"

Like they'd care anyway...

"Yes"

I heard a bump coming from upstairs. "We need to go now... Now!" I gently grabbed the boy and jumped out of the window. I ran to the front gate. I lit them on fire and walked through. "Wait, how did you do that?!" The blond yelled. "I'll tell you later!" And I ran till my legs gave up.
