         She's not a woman, is she? Yet her favorite activity is to watch her enemies crumble underneath their greatest fears. Here I was, trying to not let that coin control, trying to not let my eyes close. I didn't want to face my fears, not yet, not now. No, if I gave her the pleasure of watching me cry and scream, I'd feel useless. I shouldn't. Forced to watch the others scream, their eyes shut. They didn't fight back. Days went by and I still refuse to let go of my sanity.

"Why do you do this?" I question, looking up as she walks over slowly. My voice was bitter. "You humans are all the same, bitten by the pain of your fears." She says. "Just close your eyes." She whispers, grabbing that coin and moving it slowly, back and forth to try and hypnotize me. I watch it, but I refuse to let the swaying coin take me. "No! I won't let you do this!" I yell. She chuckles. "Then my only choice is to," She raises her hand, which has a knife attached to it. "You are of no use to me." She stabs my head, and I cry out as pain stabs into my body until I am dead.

She eats the body of this girl she killed, the blood remaining on the chair and at her feet. She faces the final person who has yet to sleep, seeing the fear etched on his face. He looked like he would puke at the very sight of blood. "Sleep." She says to him, and he does.

His fear, the very blood he had saw. That gore around him. Once he closed his eyes, he will never wake up unless he kills himself in the dream, where than, he can finally awaken. However, his fear of blood and gore will stop him from doing so. All around him is blood, bodies, mangled and destroyed. A nightmare he will never escape. He runs and runs, but all he sees is the bodies of those he loves, of strangers, bleeding on the ground, repeatedly stabbed. He was scared.

The other girl, the one who had been asleep for years since she was 13, was endlessly laying on the ground with bugs and spiders crawling out of her stomach, her mouth and her ears. She couldn't scream. Her eyes had been bulged out, remaining to watch her body be surrounded by bugs and spider, inside and outside of her, eating her away. She knew it was a nightmare, but how could she escape? Perhaps someone else was here. She notices more blood and gore, something she didn't fear, a boy was running when he saw her body.

He breathed heavily, backing up slowly. "What-what? That..." His eyes widened once he heard this girl's voice. "Are you human as well?" She asks. "Who... Who are you?" He asks shakily. "We're in some other realm..." She realizes, this weren't just some nightmare in her head, that woman took them somewhere and now, she finally sees a human, after years of seeing bugs and spiders.

Does this mean there's a way to escape, around them were knives, most of all were bloody, making this boy's fear worse. "W-What?" He looks at her. "I'm Yami." She says, looking at the boy. He looked creeped out. "Uh... I'm- I'm Rin..." He says, slowly walking over to Yami's bug-covered body.
