"I was running. Running fast. I didn't know what from, I only knew I'd never felt so scared in my life. I knew Someone was following. I could here the thump of their heavy feet in contrast with mine. Their erratic breath constantly puffing but never giving up. And their intense glare I could feel burning through me like a stab with a burning knife. The trees wiry branches scratch my face and the leaves latch themselves into my tangled hair. It's always the same. Getting further and further every time. But when am I going to get tired, when will stop I stop only to be faced with a fate I never want to think of."

He starred at me blankly like he always does. My mums been sending me to this therapist for two months now. I like to call myself optimistic but Its honestly useless. The way he stares at me in boredom as I tell him my every detail of my      dreams. It's basically Some uninterested person telling me to stop watching scary movies and get more sleep. It isn't getting me anywhere.

My Mum only just figured out about these dreams when I was having a conversation with her about the importance of gossip girl when I just stopped. My eyes peeled open. Frozen in time. And that's exactly what it was. I woke from my dream with tears rolling from eyes while screaming. It wasn't the first time she'd seen me do that but it had always been at night never out of the blue. I don't what it means but it was tormenting my life. It was my secret I carried with me every where and I was scared what it would turn into.

The dreams started when I was 11. On the day I'd never forget, even if I tried. A young boy around my age was crossing the road and then...bang. It all happened so fast. He didn't even look scared. But the way his limp body flew through the air then landed helplessly like a floating feather on the floor has haunted my every thought. I tried to move but I couldn't. I knew I'd just seen a boy just like me die. But I couldn't divert my eyes from his still, bleeding body. It felt like it had opened the door to a totally different world. One where I wasn't protected. One where I was always vulnerable. Im 18 now and going into my first year of college. What would happen if I just stopped in the middle of hall only to end up screaming. What would people think of me? Would my dream ever change?

"Look I'm going to college in a few weeks. How do you suppose I handle this." I questioned him forcing him to consider doing his job.

"Ok Audrey, I have done a bit a of research. Someone named Elle Stant had a case quite similar to your."

"Ok so what what happened, how did they solve it?" I asked desperately

"She went mad, got sent to an institution and mysteriously died." He spoke matter of factly.

How could he tell me something like this....like that! He didn't care about me and that's not someone I wanted to be around. I stood up and left. I wasn't sure how I was feeling. Scared? Confused? Unique!

It felt like how I'd felt all those years ago, when it first started. Alone and defenceless. What had happened to that girl? Would it happen to me. I feared that I would end all to soon.
