Brainwashed

Surprise

My eyes snap open and I wake up in a cold sweat. I'm in a bed but it's not my own. Am I in the nurse's office? Why?

"She's awake!" I hear someone shout.

"Gilly's awake! Get her some water!" I hear someone else yell.

My head hurts so much. My cheeks are wet like I've been crying, I guess I was crying in my sleep because I was crying in my dream.

Was it all just a dream? It seemed so real.

Of course it did. I showed you what could've been your future and what will be your future. Terribly sorry about all of this, well, not really.

"Gilly, are you okay?" I hear a voice say.

A face comes into my field of vision, which I didn't notice was so small. AG.

"U-um. I-I think I'm f-fine." I stutter. I'm so cold. My mind is so blank. I'm shivering. Oh. I hadn't noticed. Why do I feel so calm?

Tell Miri I said hi. And don't even try to tell your friends about this. I'll be able to stop you.

What? Of course I'm gonna tell my friends. I open my mouth to do just that, but my mind goes completely blank and no words come out.

"Thief? Is something wrong?" I can't see anymore. I slowly nod my head but somehow it turns into me shaking my head.

"Are you sure?" No. I'm not. I'm not okay.

Of course you're not. I am though. This is my world now. They just don't know it.

I don't like the sound of that.

Someone help! Somebody!! Anybody!! Please help! Please!
