Nightmare

Hey! This one will have a lot of hurt and comfort. Some trigger warning ⚠️ be aware.

POV JJ

"Help! JJ help me!" A small girl screams. My head whips around to but I see nothing. I run through the woods ignoring the pain in my feet as I have no shoes or socks. "Jennifer!" Another scream shouts but not a little girl. It sounds familiar but I can't place it. It's coming in a different direction. I turn and start running. Panic washes over me, I can't find a way out. All the trees look the same. How did I get in the woods. What's the last thing I remember. I stand still spinning around trying to find anything. "Jenny!" A girl screams and my heart stops. "Roslyn!?" I shout for her but nothing. I start running again looking for a way out. "Jay!" Another voice. Ashley. Panic washes through me again and I whip my head in the other direction. "Ashley! Ros!" I tell but nothing. "Jen!" Another scream. Elizabeth. "Liz! Elizabeth!" I scream. Nothing again. "Shit" I mutter looking for anything. My gun. I look down seeing it in my thigh holster. I grab it and run again. I find light and run to it only to freeze when I get out. MK, Elizabeth, Emily and Ashley all in chairs tied up. My eyes are frantically looking over then and I go to move only for a voice to stop me. "choose" I hear. I look around but nothing. I see no one. BANG. My eyes widen as MK slumps in her chair. Ashley and Elizabeth scream for her as I stand frozen eyes wide. Her lifeless body staring back at me. "Choose" the voice booms again. "No!" I yell. "Choose!" It yells and tears start to fall from my eyes. "I...no" I choke out. BANG. Emily slumps in her making me scream for her. "No, no no" I mumble moving forward only to be stopped by the voice. "Choose" it says. "Show yourself! Coward!" I yell looking around for the person. My eyes widen when I see Roslyn walk out. "Ros?" I ask looking her over. "I'm sorry Jenny... They got me" she says crying. "No! Let her go!" I scream. "Choose!" The voice booms again and I look between the three women. "No! I refuse!" I yell holding my gun up. BANG. "No!" I cry out watching Elizabeth slump in her chair. I sink to my knees. "Please! Stop, take me please. Please take me!" I cry looking at Ashley and Roslyn now. "Choose" the voice says and I shake my head. "No! Take me!" I yell standing up. "Jenny" Ros says crying. "Jay" Ashley chokes out making me cry more. A dark figure walks out standing behind the two women. "Choose or they both die" it says making me raise my gun at it. "No" I grit out. I pull the trigger but another rings out. The figure falls and Roslyn slumps. I run to her hiding her limp head crying for my dead sister again. "No, no no no please no. Not again" I cry but nothing. I take a breath turning to Ashley and untying her. "Are you ok?" I ask looking her over and taking her face between my hands. "I'm ok" she breaths out looking at me. I help her up and push her behind me as I bend down to the figure and take the hold off only to reveal myself. I gasp and push back in horror. "You did this" Ashley says making me turn around. She holds my gun up to me. "Ash... No please I..I didn't.." I studders out but her cocks the gun. "You killed everyone. All because you couldn't let go of your dead sister. You did this Jennifer. You" she says and then shoots herself. "No!' I scream and catch her as she falls. My hands press to the gun shot but it's no use she's dead. I cry holding her against me. I look around and see everyone dead, all because of me. They are dead because of me. All of a sudden, they get up. Their lifeless bodies circle around me making me back up but it's no use. Their voices fill my head on how it's my fault and I killed them. I could have stopped this, weak, pathetic, not fast enough... All ring in my head. I bring my hands to my head to block it out but nothing. "Stop...no, please stop. Stop! STOP!" I scream and cry out.

I gasp as I wake up. I frantically look around the room not knowing where I was. My eyes catch an image and I freeze seeing Ashley and I making me look at the room I was in. I let a shaky breath out realizing I'm at home, in bed, safe. Ashley is safe... Everyone is safe. I turn to look at Ashley but panic washes through me not seeing her. I throw the sheets off and rush out of bed. I frantically look around the room and, in the bathroom, but nothing. I run down the stairs calling for her. "Ashley! Ash!" I call but nothing. "no, no no no. Ash" I mumble searching every room only to come up empty. Panic is all I feel making me run back upstairs and grab my phone. No texts no calls. If she would have left early, she would have left a note. No note. I rush to get ready and call her but receive nothing. I panic more and call MK but nothing as well which makes me panic more. I rush to my office and open the safe getting my gun out and putting it in my waist band. I close the safe and rush out grabbing my wind breaker. I hop on my bike and rush to The Row.
