Dreamers

Chapter One: Bright Purple

   As soon as your eyes open and sleep starts to take hold of you while you lay in bed, you can only think about the possibilities of tonight's dream. You wake up in a violet bed, wearing a violet dress, surrounded by violet walls. This doesn't come as a surprise to you as you have been "waking up" here for almost two weeks now.

   You get out of bed and observe the room. It's an exact duplicate of your own aside from everything being bright purple. You make your way across the room to look out the window. Looking down, you see the base of the tower your room is perched on. And-big surprise-it's purple. Just like every other structure in this odd land. The only thing that isn't purple are the planet's inhabitants. Though, they're just as strangely colored. Completely black. Black as the darkness that surrounds the planet.

   One of the strange creatures passes by below and looks up at you with beady white eyes-the one part of their bodies that isn't black. You give a small wave and it waves back before continuing on.

   You step step up onto the windowsill and start flying toward the other violet tower, identical to yours. You enter through the window and look around some before walking over to the bed. Just like the last time you visited, it was occupied by a sleeping boy. You stare down at him and start to note some of his features. He's wearing an looking suit (the same violet shade as your dress) and some kind of green party glasses that keep you from seeing most of his closed eyes. His hair is blonde, but dark compared to the platinum color of your own.

   You realize how long you've been staring and start to feel like a creep. You walk back to the only exit and give the boy one last look before leaving and flying back to your own tower.
