"Cam? Are you alright?" I asked worriedly.
Camille, who seemed to be in shock, has been standing still without moving for the past 5 mins. We had been bestest of friends since nursery. When this happened, obviously something was going on.
"Cam, cammy camel??" I continued pestering her trying to get her to respond. She seemed very bothered by something.

The moment Ben, also known as Mr Looney, disappeared something clicked in me as it sent me in a spiral downwards into the ground. I was being threw into a collage of my own memories back when I was 2 years old. I saw my chubby self playing with alphabet bricks by stacking them. Beside me, my dad was gazing at me with amusement. When one of the bricks fell, I started sniffing. My dad quickly flicked his fingers and blue sparks flew out from them, flying that brick back on top. With another flick of his fingers, a little flag was placed on top.
wait what?
Then I started falling again. My head pounded and my heart raced. It seemed so real where am I?
Falling into a white room, Ben appeared in front of me. "Hey cam," he said grinning widely at me.
"Where am I? What are you doing to me?!" I demanded, head still spinning from all that falling.
"oh that. we're in your brain as of currently! dont be freaked out pleasd dear, i mean no harm" he gushed.
"firstly, how is it possible we are in MY brain?! secondly, what are you doing to my memories trying to twist the few best memories i have of my dad and me?! why are you doing this to me?" i yelled, nearing to tears.
"your dad is still alive you know," he whispered.
"what? no thats not possible.. im 15, he died when i was 9.. stop being such a dog and trying to manipulate me!" i muttered, getting angrier.
"i'll see you next time cam dear. remember you cant trust everyone." he smiled, eyes twinkling before disappearing leaving behind a pile of autumn leaves.
I felt like I was being lifted and that an invisible hand punched me across the face.
Blinking open my eyes, I saw colleen's worried expression in front of me. "Heyyyy whats up?" I asked confused.
"Dude! You were standing still for nearing 10 minutes then you totally blanked out and dropped to the ground! And you ask whats up?!" Colleen nearly cried.
"Oh," I muttered remembering what I just went through.
"So what happened?" she asked half excitedly half afraid.
Ben's word of advice on not trusting everyone rang in my head.
"uhhh i cant remember, sorriez!!" I quickly said, dismissing her questions.
