The nightmare engulfed the silent child. The horrible images wrapped around her, sufficating her. Her screams erupeted from her mouth. Images of that one night came through to her mind. The loud shots echoed through her mind. The blood and screaming wrapped around her. All she could look at was the bloody body of her mother. The blood coming from three parts of her body.
"Claire, Claire." The haunted voice taunted.
"Leave me alone!" dream-claire screamed
"Claire!"
Claire Clark awoke with a start. Her long light brown hair stuck to her forehead. Sweat stuck to her small body. Claire opened her eyes all the way and met the green eyes of her sister. Aaliyah was standing over her looking worried as she pressed a cold cloth to Claire's hot forehead.
"Shhh, it's going to be alright. Everything is going to be alright. I promise." Aaliyah's voice calmed Claire down a bit. Her sister sat down and pulled Claire into her open arms. Silent tears streamed down her face. She didn't make a sound as she sobbed into her sisters shoulder.
"It's just a dream Claire Bear I promise nothing is going to happen again. No one else in this family is going to get hurt. Mum won't let that happen. She's watching over you. She won't let anything happen to any one of us." Aaliyah stroked her little sisters hair. Her light brown hair was tangled and the older Clark daughter worked her fingers through the tangles. One of Claire's tiny hands curled into her older sisters night shirt. Her head layed on her sisters chest. She layed there in silence as she allowed Aaliyah to stroke her head.
"Do you want me to stay with you tonight?" Aaliyah asked, Claire shook her head and scooted over and allowed Aaliyah to scoot in next to her. Claire kept her hands around Aaliyah's shirt and they layed there together in till Claire fell into a dreamless sleep.
