Crazy Dream

Chapter 7

"You guys are here too?" He asked out of breath. Nova nodded as she closed the document and placed it on the table. Mason closed the door behind him and ran up to the two and grabbed their hands.
"Well we need to run, now!" He shouted. The door opened again to show tall thin robots with what looked like some form of weapon in their grasps.
They all started down the rows of filing going deeper and deeper into the trenches of paper.
They came upon 3 different paths. "They won't find us if we split up!" said Mason out of breath. Then he started down the 1st hallway.
Isaac looked over at Nova, "Be safe, I love you!" Nova smiled at him and answered ," I will, and I love you too" and the two began to sprint down the other hallways.
Nova was running down one of the dark hallways panting as she kept on tripping over piles of personal files. She tripped over a box she couldn't have saw when running and fell over. As she saw herself slamming against the floor, she began to hear a sound. She started back up again. Getting closer she realized it sounded like Issac. In the distance she could see a two silhouettes of people. "Mason and Isaac!" she thought
The silhouettes were dancing. Now they started to hug each other. As Nova was now standing about a yard away from them she saw what looked like Isaac kiss this other figure. And the figure wasn't Mason.
"What the hell!" she shouted. The two characters turned their heads to her. The other silhouette that had took her boyfriend was Ashley. "Nova, it's not what you think" Isaac pleaded.
Suddenly, they heard a cry for help from Mason. "Ugh, I don't have time for this shit" Nova stammers as she began to run past them to find Mason. She started to tear up. But she just wanted this to be a horrible nightmare and that none of it was true, but she knew these seems too well and knew they would be real in the end.
Mason was screaming again and again. In a lighter sense it reminded Nova when she would make him laugh and he tried to be funny by making his laughter insane and crazy. Unfortunately this was a different case.
She reached the end of the hallway finally. She was so glad to actually see some light shinning on her so she could actually see herself and the things around her.
Nova heard a loud SHOT coming from a door at the end of the hallway. She peered through the tiny window that was on the door.
Inside to her horror she saw Mason, lifeless and dead on the ground. She gasped in shock as she slid down the side of the door to her knees. She couldn't move. Her tears now jetting down her face as she crawled into a ball. Why was this happening to her. She collected her thoughts from earlier. "It's all a dream!" she told herself, "No one can die in a dream!"
She knew if she kept lying there she would be next, even if it didn't kill her. However she still felt the need to go. She tried to get up, struggling with her ankles. When she finally could get herself up and walking, Isaac came running through the hallway to where she was.
"Thank god I found you" he said cheery, "I heard a scream from Mason!"
Again she couldn't say anything. It's like he didn't even know what he just had done. And why was he acting like he wasn't there with her when the first scream from Mason was heard.
All she could do was stare at him. Her eyes still gushing tears, she now felt paralyzed, not knowing what to say or do.
Isaac looked deep in her eyes, "What
happened,why are you crying?" He said now resting his hand on the side of her face wiping off each tear she had wept.
Nova slowly reached her hand up pointing at the window of the door, still without saying a word.
He walked over to the door as he glanced inside the room. He as well gasped like Nova had done before him. He quickly stepped back from the window, also losing his balance.
"Why did you do it?" Nova asked softly. Isaac's eyes widened, "I didn't kill him!"
Nova shook her head as she started to walk farther from him, "No, I mean why in the world did you kiss her?" she staggered.
Isaac, now looking dumbfounded crept along side her. "What, who?" He started asking more questions on how she got to this conclusion and what she saw.
After she told him what happened in the hallway, Issac just hugged her. He didn't let go either. For about a minute they stood there, not moving a muscle.
Finally she threw his hands off of her. She knew he was an actor, after all they were always in play at their local theatre. She knew he had to be lying. He could not deceive her of what she saw.
Suddenly the door behind them where Mason was shot was open. This time there were no robots, instead was a young boy. He looked about 14 and had big glasses that covered his face.
He looked up to find Isaac and Nova. "Hmmm, another test huh?" he asked. "I guess you guys are a little more lucky then the guy in there?" he continued chuckling.
The two just stared at the young man confused. They didn't know what to say or do, besides staring.
"Well you two are going to have a hell of a day tomorrow,I tell you what." the little boy said. He began to walk up to them grabbing their hands. He grabbed something from his right pocket. It was a knife.
Before they could resist the shard, he cut their wrists. They both fell to the ground blacked out as they could still hear the boy walking off.

Nova woke up in her bed. She looked down at her hands to see blood dripping from them. She quickly went to bathroom getting a cloth as it healed pretty fast.
When she came back to her room her phone lit up to see a text from Katie she would never forget
