I woke up. I don't know what I was thinking but all I remember is that I just ran. I ran as fast as my 2 little legs could take me, I didn't care if people were staring or if there were security cameras all I did was run. I just had to get out! I ended up in this big sketchy looking woods. I didn't know exactly where I was. I looked around trying to think of how to get out of the woods, but half of me didn't want to leave.
So I just sat under a tree, which somehow comforted me. I looked down I was still dressed in my hospital gown which was now dirty great huh? Then I heard it a scream and it was so familiar!
Oh no, Zoey! The screams were coming closer. I just hid. What? I don't want to get hurt ok, I'm not wild. I looked around in search for a bush and I hid behind it. You might be wondering who's this Zoey girl? Well you're in for a story hahaha get it? You're reading a story... ok, ok I'll stop. Well Zoey is a girl in my school your average kind girl but I mean she did have secrets. And, of course I knew them.
I heard some leaves being stepped on, I looked over. I saw her running with a person behind them. Wait, no that wasn't a person it looked more like a bear! The mask was so real looking. It was really Jagged. It had it's mouth sewed up. With lots of stitches all over in very bad condition. It was chasing Zoe with a sharp rock. "ahhhh." The Bear looked over at the bush and I knew I was doomed. It walked toward the bush and moved it's arm up. I tried to move but i was stuck he then threw the rock.....
"AHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH!" I woke up sweating in my bed. My mum came in with a concerned look on her face. I was so out of breath it felt like I was running a lot.
"What's wrong", asked Mum. I finally was calming down but the nightmare kept flashing through my mind. "Just a bad dream sorry, Mum." I have been having these dreams or nightmares if you will. I don't ever really have these "nightmares" so it's very weird. I really want to write it down. What? Don't judge, it's a nightmare journal not a dream journal! I want to remember them to analyze them I guess because, dreams or "nightmares" can be very weird.
"Elle!" My mum shouted.
"Yes what huh? Sorry, what'd you say?"
"I said ok and breakfast is ready!" She rolled her eyes and walked away. Cindy can be very Sassy. No, I don't call her by her name i'm not rude to my mum. I just do in my mind ok! I got up to go see what she made because, running in your sleep can be very exhausting
. Hey, you try, then you can state an opinion. Ha, you really can't control your dream so I guess you have to take it lol. I entered the kitchen and smelled the delicious aroma.
"Chocolate Chip Pancakes!" I screamed
My Mum laughed at my excitement. I mean what's more exciting then food?
"Shut it your annoying!" screamed my annoying little brother. I made an ugly face at him and sat down to eat.
I didn't have a through plan on my "Escape" well mostly because it was pretty stupid, and because, they have security cameras everywhere!!! So I didn't escape ha.... What? This is my life not a book! I looked at my phone to see lots of unread messages. I didn't do much except for chores so yay I guess.
"So what do you want to eat Elle?"
I put down my phone, there's a lot that has been happening, but no murders so we're good but there is still a lot of condolences from the last two still.
"I don't know Mum, what did you have in mind," I asked
"Well, I guess I'll just do Fettuccine Alfredo."
Now that made me smile that's my favorite, the first time since getting out of jail. Hahahah I'm kidding I meant to say the hospital... Yeah sure I did. The hospital I was at seemed indeed very controlling and they were cranky too. Well I thought it was a lot staying in the hospital for a week just for fainting! I feel like it's over exaggerated but whatever. I'm not a doctor so I can't say anything. Which also means, I have to makeup a whole week of school, yay life gets better huh? And also how i'm still in suspicion for murdering two teen girls! You watch lots of horror movies people find out, then this is what you get???? Very unfair if you ask me.
I grab the remote and turn the tv on. Which, coincidently was on the news channel already.
"This is just in! A girl was found dead in the woods no information on who it is yet but we'll get back to you soon in right away! Take it away Jonathan with the weather for next week." i turned the Tv off right away. Is that a coincidence or what my nightmare was taken place in the woods! I don't even know if I should tell my Mum! Wait, no I can't she'll think i'm crazy like always. I guess I'll have to keep it to myself for now.
"Goodnight Elle, you have to catch up with school tomorrow before Monday! So sleep tight", said Mum trying to get me to fall asleep for THE FREAKING THIRD TIME!!! I couldn't sleep because when I did I saw The Bear Man again. "Goodnight Mum I love you too!" I just couldn't stop thinking of him bet then before I knew it I fell asleep, but this time it wasn't a bear..
"Ahhhhh!" I heard a scream again but, this time it was a guy...
