NIGHTMARES

Chapter 12

I'm sitting on a pile of bricks. A pile of bricks on top of a building. Everything that surrounds that building is burning. Bridges are falling down, smoke is coming from everywhere, intoxicating the whole city. Skyscrapers are falling down crashing into smaller buildings.
I look up, fire is burning, and I'm burning with it. My hands are lifting flames, and I'm burning everything.

I see my family. My mum is screaming my name. They're on top of a building that is about to fall to the ground. She's screaming, begging for help. I offer my hand to help them up, and a flame fires at them. The building stumbles and is at the edge of turning into stones and ashes.
I can't seem to move my feet, and every time I offer my hand to help them up, I shoot a flame and destroy the building even more.
They're about to crash, I look at them with my eyes teary. My mothers is scared, her eyes are asking for help. The building falls to the ground crashing in flames. Now, all I can ask for, is forgiveness.

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

I jump from my bed. It was all a dream. Nothing is in flames. But why does it smell like burned?
My sheets are black, they're burned and black.
I'm panicking, what the hell am I supposed to do?
I jump out of my bed, I cover my sheets with my pillow but it doesn't cover enough. I take the sheets and throw them out the window.

When I enter the school everyone is looking at me, as if I had something on my face. Everyone is looking at me, and they don't stop. Voices in my head start screaming: "It's your fault!" "You're disgusting" "You're destroying everything!"
I'm turning, everyone is looking at me, screaming, yelling. I can't stop spinning, it's all I do, I spin and spin until I feel two hands stop me. I loose balance and get dizzy. I can't picture who it is.

"Suzz? Suzz are you okay?"
Who is it?
"Suzz? Suzz?"
Jenn?
"Suzz?!"
My head is on the ground now, I'm not dizzy.
"Are you okay?"
"Everyone is looking at me, judging me-"
"No-one is looking are you Su-"
"I've done terrible things Jenn, you need to get away from m-"
"Suzzane!" She yells "No-one is looking at you"
What?
"Okay Suzz? No-one is looking at you, you haven't done anything wrong"

"I, I.... I don't... Under..un...underst-" the only thing that could come out of my mouth

"What don't you understand? Suzzane?"

"It's the curse"

Jenn stops interrupting me. She looks at me worried.

"Tell me what happend"

-•-

"So you killed your family?" Jenn asks with a look on her face as if she were a lost puppy.

"I don't know, all I remember was I was burning everything"

"I thought you said you didn't remember your dreams"

"I usually don't, but I seem to remember some. This one in particular"

Jenn starts talking to the wall, asking questions I don't understand. I open my locker to leave my books, I drop it and its black, where I was holding the book is now black. I shove it quickly into my locker.
Jenn is now walking toward the cafeteria, wile she is still asking questions to the wall.

I start walking towards the other direction. Math class is my first period, and my teacher hates needing late.

"Suzzane" I look up. It's Colum

I can't stop staring at him, but I want to.

"How are yo-"
"I have to go" I cut him off and run to the bathroom

What were we now? After we kissed we didn't really talk about anything. I have no idea if we're together or just friends.
But anyways, that was not my biggest dilemma right now.

I walk to the sink and splash my face. I look up to check myself in the mirror.

That's when I hear screams.
