Chapter 10: More Nightmares

Chapter 10: more nightmares

As soon as I went to sleep, I had another nightmare. It's much worse than last time, much more gory, horrifying.

This is how it went.

I stood in the small dark cavern, I knew I was at the edge of the same pit where I once was last time.

Only there was No warm breeze flowing up from the mouth of the pit.

Instead, it was terrifyingly cold, the breeze blasted my face like a fan. Once again, I couldn't move my arms not even to lift them to protect my face.

My legs where also immobile. The coldness bit at my face, and any other exposed skin. And it hurt. I couldn't cry out either. It was as if some mad 18th century doctor had sewn my mouth shut.

Then it stopped abruptly.

Moments passed of silence, I knew I wasn't alone. All that hung in the air was that presence, that familiar presence.

Then, another unfamiliar presence joined the first. I couldn't see eyes, but I felt them on me, looking me over slowly. Stabbing me with glares, cutting into me with accusing glances and hateful glowers.

Then, like a mountain of lions, a overpowering roar, so loud it seemed as if my ear drums where going to explode, erupted like a volcano from the depths of the pit.

Then everything went silent again. All that hung in the air was the echoes of the roar, and the eyes of whoever was with me.

"Well," a deep voice says, echoing off the cavern walls. All I could do was slightly whimper.

"Precious, isn't she?" Another voice says. My blood ran cold, I recognized the voice, the same voice from my last dream. Lucifer.

"What's that?" Jeered the first voice.

"You want to know why your here, in my domain?" A sick laughter erupted through the cavern, bouncing off the sides of my skull, and racking my nerves.

"Well, girl, since you asked, or rather though, I shall tell you. You will die, yes I knew you already knew that. But, you will be mine, ours." The first voice snaps.

"Yes, and when that time approaches, my dear Maiyan."

The words rolled off his tongue in quick syllables and hung on the tip of his tongue.

"You will become ours!" Lucifers voice snaps."

And the whole cavern floods with laughter. It bounces off the cavern walls like it bounces off the insides of my skull and tossing my brain into frustrating jolts.

Then the scene changes. I am chained to a wall. I can't see anything. The lights must be off. No windows to break through.

Just cold brick walls. Shelves lined the walls and on them laid hospital tools, like: screws, scalpels, a special skull drill, more scalpels, and other things I didn't recognize.

And then what I saw made my blood run cold, there, on the highest shelf, laid a corpse.

It's face twisted in pain, it's eyes just white orbs, and they seemed to stare right at me. It's skin was stretched tightly around its disintegrating skull. It's mouth hung open to show rows of rotted sharp teeth, some teeth where missing, bugs crawled in and out of its mouth freely. Something glimmered silver in the back of its throat. I strained to look closer, but then the door gave a loud groan and a tall slender figure stepped in.

The first one stepped into the dim light. He was gorgeous.

He had long slick pink hair that was braided and slung over his shoulder, his eye lashes and eyebrows where even pink.
