Voices of Nightmares

(Drawing above belongs to rightful owner and looks fricken awesome)
Today was Wednesday and the day before AnnaLee and I added a few things to Marks birthday plan. Go to comic con. Disneyland with friends. Go to dinner with friends. Next day road trip. That was what we planned and I wanted it to be perfect.

That particular Wednesday I was drawing at 6am. I woke up really early because I had another dream but this one was quick and short. Wilfrod Warfstache  introduced me to Tiny Box Tim and then the dream was over. That was it. I was drawing in the light of our hotel bathroom because I did not want to awaken the sleeping habitat of Youtubers. They were all sound asleep and Bob seemed to be the most tired the day before.

I only had a pencil and my notebook so I drew a small sketch of Mark during his World of Warcraft video and it turned out better that I thought. I was currently still in Mark, Jack, And AnnaLees room but I could hear the guys next door snoring.

"Maddie.... Silly child", A voice said stopping me from my sketch.

"I know you can hear me because you have that idiotic look on your face", The voice said. "Get up please and step into the hall",.

"Who ever you are I am not gonna listen", I replied as I kept drawing. This is all in your head, I thought, right?

"Fine, stay here in this room and don't be a curious teen that you are", A voice said.

"Well I don't feel like listening to voices in my head because I will look crazy", I replied outloud.

"But you already are crazy ,my dear", The voice chuckled. "You cant run away from these nightmares and not expect that they can drive you insane, plus your daddy's birthday is next Tuesday",.

"Yea that gives you more the reason to get out of my head", I said. "I don't need you",.

I didn't hear a reply. I was crazy. But then a idea skipped across my mind. I wanted to explore. Mark would be mad, I thought. I then left my drawing in the bathroom and began to get dressed. Itchy woke up with his adorable bandana and began to itch. I wore a blue T-shirt with black shorts and space converse. I also had some cheap sunglasses I found in the hotel room. I hooked Itchy into a leash and had my phone in my pocket. I wrote a letter to the guys that said:
Dear Mark and Uncles,
Don't panic I am simply taking Itchy on a walk and will be back really soon. I also have my phone so please don't get angry at me.
Love, Maddie

I quickly left and went down the hall ,then the voices began to come back.

"So you listened", The voice said.

"Who are you", I said out loud quietly.

"A figment of your imagination because apparently you don't pay enough attention to the voices in your dreams, do you?", The voice said sternly.

"I-is it D-Darkiplier?", I asked.

"Maybe", The voice said back. "Plus you should check your phone",.

Right then my phone began to ring I answered it to hear AnnaLees voice.

"Hey hold it right there in coming with you", AnnaLee said into the phone. " I don't want to stay here and watch people sleep",.

I stopped dead in my tracks and turned to we AnnaLee standing there ready for the day.

"I can't believe that you wanted to leave at a time like this with out me", AnnaLee said.

"AnnaLee can I tell you something?", I asked.

"Sure, you can tell me anything", AnnaLee said as we walked into the elevator. When we got into the elevator the doors closed.

"Okay do you remember that I had stuff going on with my head", I said.

"Y-Yea", AnnaLee said. "What about it?",.

"I have a voice in my head", I said.

"A voice? So something is talking to you?", AnnaLee said raising a eyebrow.

"Yes, I know it sounds crazy, maybe I am crazy", I said.

"I believe we are all crazy in our own ways", AnnaLee said. "Do you still have nightmares?",.

"Yea", I replied as the elevator doors opened and we walked out of the hotel and onto the street.

"Well just block out the voices, my friend", AnnaLee said. I dropped the subject and no more voices were heard after that. We walked down the street and came to a cafe shop. I had a few dollars and bought a hot cup of tea and AnnaLee a cup of coffee.

"Was any of the guys awake?", I asked.

"I looked in Felix, Ken, Bob, and Wades room and saw Felix getting up so I quickly got out of there", AnnaLee said. AnnaLee began to talk about Thomas and how he was coming down for Marks birthday and how excited he was to hang out with all of us. There was gonna be so many people here!
