My eyes snap open, as my chest rapidly rises and falls.
These fucking nightmares have to stop.
Ever since I can remember I've had these visions, you could say, of other people's trauma.
The nightmares are new. I've never had them wake me up before.
Well I guess that's the one downside of being able to manipulate people's minds, that their traumas stay with you.
The memories don't stay for long but they still hurt.
There is only one that still haunts me every night but I don't know who it belongs to.
It always starts the same I wake up in a lab I'm cold wet and naked, my body aches but mostly my hands are killing me.
The pain feels like growing pains. Like when you're a kid and your feet start growing at night and you can't sleep. That kinda pain.
I try to move but I'm strapped down to the table.
The doctor looks down at me with a terrible grin, but then I wake up.
Every time I have this dream I get lightheaded and a surge of energy fills my body. Waking me up, early.
It's 4:37 AM I know I won't be able to go back to sleep so I'll just walk to the lab and get an early start.
I work in the lab alongside my sister, Jean.
I've always been the "weird" sister or the "less talented" sister to other people but not to her, she always lets me know how proud she is of me.
Our parents sent Jean away to Xavier when she was young a few years later when I started acting similar they sent me too.
Anyways, my job in the lab is to calm new patients if they are freaking out. Not to mention other doctor abilities I may do but mainly Jean does all the heavy lifting I'm just her right hand man.
With my powers I can make patients think they are in a safe place, not that the lab isn't safe but it's not the most welcoming.
Since I can't get back to sleep, I make my way down to the lab. I'll set up and clean some stuff because I have time.
When I finally get to the lab I sit at the computer. I log myself into the database and play some music.
To start my day I wipe down the tables and counters.
Then I lay out the medical instruments and bed sheets.
When that is all done I get an early start on some medical paperwork.
We like to keep a log of everyone who comes to the school what mutation they have and what medical assistants it may require.
As i'm typing in a students name a voice behind me interrupts my thoughts
"It's very early Abigail"
I turn to see the voice behind me. I can already guess who it is.
"Hi, Professor."
He likes to sneak up on people like that.
I hate it when he does it to me.
He says I have to "learn to hear him coming"
Whatever that's supposed to mean.
I think he wants me to try to expand my powers but to be honest, I'm scared to.
"What are you doing up Abigail" He says coming towards me
"I had a nightmare, the same one I keep having," I say getting back up with the sheets in my hand
