Nightmare

"I've decided to send someone to keep an eye on her." 

"You can't possibly think that she'll believe this." 

"She will."

A gun shot goes off and almost hits the girl standing in its path, it goes right through her and into the man who looked oddly familiar behind her but the girl couldn't quite place it as she screamed for the man who fell into a pool of his own blood.

The world around her quickly changes again just as the girl fell to her knees next to the body, different bodies appear next to her. Each laying in a pool of their own blood from injuries that couldn't quite be seen but the girl knew they were there.

The blonde girl closes her eyes while pushing the palms of her hands on her forehead, tears stream down her cheeks as she tried to rid the images from her head.

Reality

A scream rips through the small apartment building, waking almost everyone that called that building home. A single light turns on in the apartment where the scream originated, a blonde woman sits up on her bed with sweat dripping down her forehead; the sheets wrapped around her fists.

"Lucy? Luc? Are you alright?" A male voice demands while rushing into the room, Lucy's eyes quickly snap to his as her breathing increases. She did not recognize this man.

"W-who are you?" Lucy stutters as the man steps into the room, she quickly pulls her knees to her chest and crawls back towards the headboard in fear.

"Luc? It's me, Ben?" The man sighs and sits down at the edge of the bed. "I'm your brother?"

"What? I don't have a brother..." Lucy mutters as her eyebrows furrow in confusion.

"Do we have to go over this every morning?" Ben grumbles under his breath. "I am your brother. You live with my girlfriend Kelly and I because you injured your head at the age of sixteen from a car accident."

"Then where are my parents?" Lucy inquires.

"Dead." Ben states. "Died in the crash."

"Oh," Lucy mutters.

"Kelly and I didn't want you living in a hospital," Ben adds. "That's why you live with us."

"How come I can't remember?" Lucy demands. "I mean, shouldn't I remember the days after?"

"You remember that movie? The one we used to watch with mom and dad every Friday?" Ben questions, Lucy slowly shakes her head. "Well, it's called Fifty First Dates and one of the main characters got in a car accident. Damaged her head just like you, every night it's like her brain was a slate and it was just....wiped."

"So, I...can't remember anything?" Lucy questions. "I can't....what the hell?"

"Just get some sleep okay? We'll talk more in the morning." Ben assures before walking out of the room, turning off the light before he left. 

Lucy sits on her bed staring at the door where that man had left, she knew something was off. She could feel it in her gut, that man.....whoever he was. Was in no way related to her but then there was the fact of memories, what if he was telling the truth? And there was the comment on reminding her every morning.....maybe he was telling the truth?

Lucy's eyes scan the room, trying to find something that would help her remember. There were no pictures, posters, or anything on the shelves and walls of the bedroom. Lucy knew for a fact that she'd normally have pictures and posters everywhere. So something was definitely wrong.

"So, she cannot remember anything?" Loki questions. "And she doesn't know how she got there or what's happened throughout her life?"

"Yes, is there a problem?" Lucifer shortly replies.

"Well, I just think we should've filled her head with memories, so she wouldn't question anything." Loki rolls his eyes. "This is a greater risk for her to get her memories returned."

"Don't worry about that. The only people who can get her memory back are on a wild goose chase in Oregon." Lucifer waves the god off.

"Alright, if you believe this will work. I'm willing to....roll with it. If that's how you Midgardians say it." Loki mumbles with a small shrug of his shoulders.

"I guess." Lucifer chuckles. "You're close."

"Close?" Loki questions.

"Nevermind."
