3rd person pov

Darkness, that's how all dreams start. With empty, soulless black, to be reshaped how the mind wants it to be, quite a twisted reality, that all your nightmares, all the horrid images, come from your own mind, but. Even so, were the nightmare of an empty hallway always your minds doing? 

"Abandoned...just as I was"

"It's always the same thing." I groan at Esther, she's a very sweet girl, younger than me, and already had her life outside the orphanage taken away. She didn't deserve the pain of loss, she didn't deserve these repeating nightmares. the nightmares are always just, the orphanage but scarily empty, it's not even scary to me anymore, it's just plain annoying. 

"Maybe it'll be different. . .I can feel it" the little one says, she always had hope for the nightmares, that they'll change, I've given up on the possibility but, I won't let my own pessimism get to her "let's just, get it over with, to see if your right" I calmly say to her in motherly like tone, she nods and grabs my hand while I lead her to the end, down to the bottom far right and back around to the shadow-like bunny plushie. "Alright, Mr whatever-the-fu-" I was r u d l e y  interrupted by the rabbit growing in size, I already pushed Esther to start running before running myself. we never win the chase but, we still try. The rabbit monster's hand grabbed me first before Esther, the images of a girl burning at the stake flash before my eyes before blacking out, soon to be in the real world again.

Waking up with a start, trying to catch my breath, I look over to Esther, she's doing way worse. after a few moments, other kids sat up, including our 'dear' friend Molly "Esther, Y/n, we are trying to sleep" Esther didn't respond, neither did I, I was more concerned about Esther.

"You woke us all up again" Molly started, when Esther calmed down "Did you have a bad dream again Esther?" Isaac continued after Molly "It's not just a bad dream Isaac, It's the same dream... over and over again, Y/n has them too" the girl in purple states in distress, I nod in agreement with her claim "Maybe it means something?"  Isaac shrugged while Molly gave her own opinion "Maybe it means they're going crazy!" my eye slightly twitched "We're not crazy, Molly!" Esther yells in response, I smile at Esther, she smiles back. 

Before Molly could say anything back we all heard the sound of a full box being dropped, turning to the sound, I see Miss Beverley standing behind a box with 'donated toys' written on the front. "Here you are, kids. More things for you to make a mess with." and with that, she leaves. Molly was the first to react, with a gasp "New toys!?" the trio of kids made their way over, with myself in tail, I watch them look inside and pick up their new toys, except Esther, I walked over and looked into the box and froze, the toy bunny from the nightmares, its right there, but not as shadow-like, he was grey, with a red bowtie and blue pants, and his eyes, a piercing yellow, me and Esther reach for him together getting flashes of our dreams, the burning girl, six strange medallions and the bunny itself.  

Esther and I hold the bunny, staring in fear "I feel like I've...seen this before..." Esther says quietly "yeah, it's the bunny...from the dark hallway." I respond, she nods in shock, before looking away to her friends "These are quite creepy-looking." Isaac says in worry, his toy is a tiger with a blue tie and black pants, his eyes are the same yellow as the rabbit, but one of his eyes is a button. "No, they're not! they're adorable! I'm going to call mine Miss Bo." Molly says with delight, her toy is a panda, with a pink bow on the head and pink pants, Miss Bo also had a pink heart on her chest and pink cheeks on her face, her eyes are a lovely but scary blue. "I'll call mine...Mr. Stripes." Isaac states, slightly smiling at his new friend "what are you going to call yours?" Molly looks at us, I look to Esther and she looks back, after a moment we look to the bunny before saying together ". . .Mr. Hopp"
