There is a bright light in front of me. I see the outlines of people standing by the light. My body is cold and I appear to be strapped to a bed or a table of some sort. I hear the people talk, saying what seems to be the same thing over and over.
"How is he doing? Is he stable?"
"At the moment he seems to be, he'll be blank in about two minutes"
these voices keep talking back and forth about what I can only assume is me for about 2 minutes before I feel a sharp pain. I start to shake and yell as one of the people start to yell. "SOMETHING'S WRONG! HE'S COMING BACK!"
"UP THE POWER, WE'RE TOO CLOSE TO LOSE HIM NOW!".
Suddenly I wake up springing out of bed in a cold sweat. I've been having the same dream since I woke up about a month ago. I woke up in a room in Toronto General Hospital on November 3rd. When I woke up there were three men and a woman in the room with me. One seemed to be a cop, the one next to him was a detective, and last was a doctor with a nurse to my right. The detective looked at me and took off the pair of glasses, he had on, and put them in his pocket.
"Son, do you remember anything that happened before waking up?"
I was still a bit out of it but I was still able to answer him to an extent.
"No, I don't remember anything, where am I?"
"You're at the hospital, don't worry kid, you'll be okay, when you leave you'll be given some clothing, a wallet, and a phone. Please take them with you and get a cab. Have him take you to the address in your wallet"
I nodded to the man and slowly got out of bed and did what the detective told me to.

On my way there looked through my wallet to see who I was, or am. I pulled out a health card with a name read it.

truth be told I had no idea what the hell any of it meant but i do know my name is Luke Andrew, I think?.

The car pulled up to a small apartment building and I walked inside. A thin lady with black hair and brown eyes and a toothpick in her mouth was sitting behind a desk with an annoyed look on her face. The lady looked up at me with a sort of death stare as she spat out the toothpick. "can I help you with something? Or are you going to stand their all damn day?" the lady said with a very rude tone to her voice.
"um.. I was told I live here? I have this piece of paper I'm supposed to give to you or something like that"
I took an envelope out of my pocket and extended my arm toward the woman and she snatched it from my hand as if I was wasting her time. She opening it and seemed to have been reading it before tossing in into one of the corners of her desk and getting up. She went to the wall of keys behind her and took the keys of the hook marked 32 and threw them to me.
"32, it's on the top floor, have a nice day Andy"
I took the keys and thanked her.

I walked upstairs and opened the door To the room marked 32. I walked in and to my surprise the room looked very nice. It had red carpet, a tiny kitchen with a food bar, a 32 inch flat screen in the living room and a queen size bed in the bedroom. In the kitchen there was a note and a calendar stuck to the fridge. The note gave a location that was marked as "school" and the calendar had days marked for the school, PA DAYS, HOLODAYS, ETC.

I started school the fallowing Monday and was shocked to find it was a small house with the living room remodeled to look like a classroom with about 10 other people including myself. A teacher, 4 girls, 5 boys, and me.

It seems to be normal for the most part accept I didn't understand why I wasn't in a normal school, or why I had to fallow some back ally, short cut BS to get back to my home rather than the normal roads.


This repeated for a month and so did the dream, I kept thinking about it over and over and drew more and more. I can't help feeling like this dream is more that some strange re-occurrence and I intend to find out what It might mean. December 5th, I left the school in a odd mood, something was telling me to try something new, so Instead of fallowing the map, i took my own path. I ran down the side walk with a smile on my face laughing as I did. It felt so liberating to not do what I was supposed to for once. And now I'm on the ground with a girl sitting in front of me holding her head.
