Alexander wakes up in a all mysterious place, he stands up and look around, while looking he feels a cool breeze drawing him to a certain direction.
He complies to the mysterious force. chains appearing on his wrist then on his ankles. Alex doesn't seemed to be bothered. He look to the side, there's a picture of everyone Alex has know/knew in his life looking happy. He look around and then looks back. Everyone is dead. Thunder crashes lighting up the place which turns into a hallway. Now theres a bunch of mirrors all facing him. He cries out while hurricane-like wind surrounds him. Then.
Black.

Alex POV

I jolt up gasping for air, while hyperventilating I realized it was just a dream.....a dreadful dream. Tears running down my cheek,
I was ready to start sobbing, until I heard footsteps, I quickly get a hold of myself. Washington walks in, "Alexander, Meet me in my office." he says in a stern tone. Just great, I'm in trouble. So much for a good day. I stand up, my head feeling the repercussions from the fight. I walk to Washington's office. "Son, this is the second time you ended up unconscious in the nurses office!" He yells worriedly. "Well what do you want me to do!? Let Jefferson hurt that guy!?" I yell. Washington scolds, "Go get me! Stop trying to fight your battles alone son!" Hearing that made me think of my dream, "I'm not your son!" I yell as a familiar feeling starts creeping up, fear, a life or death type fear, but why? I was in a safe office with Washington. But I was afraid, for Washington for everyone. I don't want to lose my new family...
I don't want to lose Washington....
memories flood in of the dream....of my history. The five seconds feeling like a hour long excavate into my thoughts. Washington continues with the argument I had forgotten was taking place, "Son you can't keep doing this! Just talk to me!!" He yells louder. Hearing son just doesn't help, every-time someone calls me son they end up gone! Am I cursed!? Is Washington next!? The emotions begin to flood  up my throat, I try to contain it but it's to powerful. "CALL ME SON ONE MORE TIME!" I scream in a burst of emotions, I begin shaking violently with only tears to calm me down. I cover my mouth. Washington looks at me in disbelief, he hadn't noticed something had been wrong, but now he knows. "Alexander....?" He goes to put his hand on my shoulder. I take a step back. I look down, wiping the tears away. He nods understanding me. He drops his hand on his side. "Go to your dorm..." he says. "We'll talk about this another time." He gives a comforting smile, but I can see the concern in his eyes. I nod, and leaves quickly. I walk outside feeling the beginning of fall breeze, and the sun beaming on my face.
I let my hair down, cascading down my neck. I don't even make it to my dorm, I sit down trying to collect my thoughts, I dig my face into my knees. Letting the day go by slowly, as I think.
