November Nightmares (2013)

Jason?

She snapped back to reality, she had stopped in the middle of the alleyway, her mind started to focus. Must. Find. Jason. She needed to see the rest of that deepest desire, she needed to know what happens. She bolted down the alleyway towards the nearest dumpster. She could see where he was in her mind, a green dumpster somewhere down this alleyway. He was laying on top of it, Stacey had no idea why he was there, but why did he land so far down compared to where she was?
She ran the rest of the way to him, she needed to know that he was okay. The burning sensation in the back of her throat grew stronger, she knew he was here. She searched the part of the alleyway. There was a gap in the wall, she looked down the gap. There, in this alleyway in the alleyway, was a green dumpster with Jason perched on top. She squeezed through the small gap, the gap was smaller than the alleyway itself. She walked over to his body, he was still unconscious. She picked up his body and sat him on the floor opposite her and started to lick the rest of the blood that was there on his arm. The desire started again. She got reeled into this desire of his all over again.

Kelly hugged Jason tightly refusing to let go, he looked startled at first but then hugged her back, his blond hair gently flowing in the wind.
Clearly Stacey had missed part of this desire of Jason's as now the two of them were now standing on a bridge. Stacey continued to lap at the blood on Jason's arm, wanting to see more of the desire. Jason picked up Kelly in a romantic way, with her legs over his left arm and her back laying on his right arm. He kissed her, Stacey flinched when she saw this, she never liked the idea of Public Displays of Affection. It had been a long time since she last kissed someone, she didn't miss it, nor did she envy these two, she didn't want to know anymore. She drained Jason of his blood, blocking out the desire. She left him there, she had to find Kelly. Surely she was dead by now, there was no point in trying to find her.

Noises came from one end of the alleyway, groaning noises, noises that weren't human. Stacey bolted up right, standing up, leaving Jason's body to fall to the ground. She couldn't escape; she closed her eyes tightly and knew she had to do the exact same thing she had done to get outside in the first place. The park. Stacey suddenly thought, images flashed through her mind. The park is the perfect place, somewhere where no-one can get me. She left Jason's body on the ground and curled up in a ball, thinking about the park, picturing the park.

She opened her eyes, they started to glimmer as she slowly rose to her feet, but glimmering more as she felt the soft morning dew on the grass beneath her feet. This place was like her second home, she came here too often when she was younger, this place was her escape and she knew it like the back of her hand. The only place she could go when she needed to get away from things, she was older now but that didn't change a thing. Stacey was still the same old girl she had been back when they lived here, back when her parents were still together. Back when her mind was still intact. Maybe things were different now, her mind was no longer intact, her parents were no longer together, she didn't live here, she wasn't even the same girl. To her mind, she had become a monster. She wasn't the same girl at all, she was confused as to whether she was still a girl at all. Confusion flooded her mind while she continued walking, she stared at the grassy floor that was gently turning yellow from lack of water, under her feet. Something had taken over her, the tattoos that had appeared over her body; they couldn't have just appeared from no-where, could they? This nightmared reality was becoming more and more real by the minute, she didn't like it. She shook her head violently and walked into a tree, the tree had about 4 leaves left on it. She looked up, she recognised the tree, she started to climb the tree and there, surely enough, was the tree house from her childhood. Here she would be safe, zombies couldn't climb, she knew she would be safe here. Safe from the zombies, safe from her mind, safe from herself, safe from everything.
