Clang clang clang

"Come on time to start your fears!" Four shouts I groan holding my pounding head along with the other initiates I get dressed and wait for Raymond, Uriah and Jack

"Wow you look worse than I feel" I laugh at the boys zombie demeanour

"Why can't they let us off today" Jack groans

"Come on you wusses you've had a hangover before" I chuckle

"Fuck you Chels" Raymond groaned

"Now now Ray no need to be like that" I tutted he just rolled his eyes and headed to the cafeteria we all followed I had a strong coffee and toast I sat and ate it until Four told us to go to the waiting room outside the fear landscape room when we arrive I see the transfers looking petrified I took a deep breath and sat down as each person was called I got more and more anxious I was second to last

"You nervous" Rick asked I shrugged

"I know what's going to be in there I just don't know if I can face it" I sigh

"I know the feeling" he laughs lightly I smile

"Chelsea" Four says I take a deep breath and get up

"Good luck Chels" I turn and smile

"You too" I reply I follow Four into the room there is a chair with a computer next to it

"Sit down" Four orders I do as he says and sit in the chair

"I'm going to inject you with a serum that activates the part of the brain that processes fear you will have to either calm yourself so the system registers a regular heart rate or face the fear I will be able to see your sim on the screen" he explains I nod he injects me with it and I feel myself drift off

I'm stood in the pit it's empty no people I can't even hear anyone I walk around I can feel my heart rate increasing

"HELLO...ANYONE...DAD" I shout to no success I started to panic I took a deep breath and slowly let it out I did this a few more times until I woke up in the fear landscape room I looked at Four

"We'll done 15 minutes, what was that fear anyway" he asked

"Fear of being alone" I said

"Never knew you had that fear" he said I nodded

"Can I go" I asked

"Yep" I walked out and straight to the bar

"Give me the strongest thing you have" I demand the bartender nods I drink my sorrows away for the rest of the night...
