A Personal Inferno

Chapter 4

You open your eyes, and all you see is what you can tell is your bedroom. You are standing in the middle of the room dumbfounded at what is going on. Was it all a dream? Was everything that happened to you all in your head? Have you truly gone insane now? All these questions run through your head as you look around. But something doesn't feel right about everything. Everything in the room is where you last left things, but as you look at the window, you can see street lights. You walk over to the window. It is dark. All you see is one street light and a vast blackness, as if you are in the middle of a void. No buildings, no other street lights, nothing, just endless pitch darkness.

As you gaze out the window, your heart starts to race, and your mind starts to outrun your hearts beat with thoughts. "What the fuck, what is going on? What the jesus fucking christ almighty FUUCKK!"
"Calm down my friend, you are okay. Take a deep breath in and out everything is quite alright I am here with you" you recognise the voice, it's that Dr voice.
"What the fuck is going on where am I where are you?" You say with fear in your voice, panicking. All of a sudden you feel a hand on your shoulder. You turn to look with such speed it would cause whiplash. It's the Dr he standing infront if you. Relief fills your body and the racing thoughts and your heart slow down. "To answer your question. You are in still in my office but I have put you into a deep sleep so that you can face your demons head on my friend" reassuring you. You take a second to gather your thoughts "So, you have hypnotised me basicly?" You ask.
"In a way yes I have. But don't worry I'm not going to make you stand on one leg and make you believe your a dog" he says jokingly.
"Thats good, because I don't want to be snapping out of this to me licking my own ballocks or worse, your wrinkly baw sack" you say jokingly aswell but seriously at the same time.
Dr Virgil chuckles as what you say. "Don't worry my friend you are in good hands. I'm here right now with you to act as your guide though here on your journey" as he says this he looks into your eyes and from what you can see you feel a trust with him.
You nod and you bith turn towards the middle if the room.

"This is your place? Very nice" he says, but you can't tell if he's being nice or not.
"Look Dr.." before you can finish your sentences he says.
"Just call me Virgil my friend no need for the formal titles here."
You look at him with a glad smirk on your face because calling someone Dr all the time is a little annoying when you have to say it over and over again.
"Okay, no problem." You reply.
"I would prefer to call you a Prick or a Cunt for interrupting. But Virgil will do" you say back to him with a sarcastic tone to your voice. You hear Virgil smirk under his breath. Then you feel something, the hairs on the back of your neck stand up. A feeling over whelms you body. You almost fall to your knees but virgil quickly catches you and ask "what's wrong? What are you feeling?" The feeling is so intense you can't utter a word out. Then both of you hear somthing from across the room, voices and somthing moving . You both look up slowly to see what it was. Your eyes widen with fear. In your heart what you see is somthing so horrible you know what it is instantly. It filled your heart and head with a feeling you know all to well. Virgil brings you to your feet. You are standing there, Petrified. Like a stone not moving, sweat running thrown your brow gripping onto Virgil for dear life. A monsterous horror appearing infront of you.

"Tell me" he said with a soothing voice trying to snap you out of it. "What is it this abomination holds power over you?. This twisted torso of skin and bone, this mutant of worry and endless thought?" Virgil said still in a soothing tone but with a hint of curiosity. As you stare at this monster with fear in your heart and panic in your head, sweat glossing over your palms, you utter the words "AAaanxietyyy" you shakily speak. Virgl can hear the fear in your voice. He reachs out to you and gentally puts his hand in your shoulder and says "Go on, you can do this". His words bring me back from the fear the engulfed my heart and mind. As you swallow the lump that's in your throat, cotten mouth stricken, it was like swallowing sand. You take a deep breath, in through your nose, out though your mouth. You gather your thoughts and then you speak. "This thing is my anxiety, all my thoughts and fears. But why does it looks so fucking fucked up looking?" You say with a confused expression across your face. Even though your face says confuses Virgil can see the fear in your eyes still. "As you says my friend, this abomination is your anxiety made manifest. All your thoughts and fears twisted and contorted into this". As the both of us gazing upon this thing, it starts to move towards you both. It stumbles and its body jerks with every montion of movement. You start to hear it speak with what it sound like gibberish. But as it gets closer you realise it's not gibberish. It's voice was not one voice but many voice all speaking at once.
