Last night I had most horrifying nightmare. He was there. The Skin-Taker was standing in front of my nine year old self laughing hysterically. I was petrified, horrified, paralyzed in shock. "We're gonna have fun pal." He exclaimed playfully. "I can't wait to make a new cape! BWAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA!" As he laughed darkness surrounded me. It was so warm and I was slipping, slipping, slipping..."No." I muttered. The Skin-Taker stopped laughing. "No? But why would you want to miss the big party!? All of your friends will be there?" he taunted sarcastically. "No! Just get out! I am not your puppet!" His face became grim. "You don't know what you're doing kid. Why don't you just sit right there isn't it so nice and warm and comfy and safe and..." True. The darkness was safe, but I must wake up from this nightmare. "I am not scared anymore so just get out!" I charged at him and as I got closer his scream got louder until he disappeared into a cloud of smoke. I woke up covered in sweat. It was over. But the most terrifying part of the dream, the part that unnerved me the most was that under that thick smog I saw my son, standing there, smiling.
Go, run, into nice darkness.
