"get up, danny boy, you can't stay asleep forever."
the voice echoed in dan's brain, and although he was terrified and wanted desperately to open his eyes, he couldn't. he felt his eyes slide across his eyelids frantically, and when all he should be able to see is black, a foggy white clouded his vision, as if he were caught up in mist. shadows flickered around in his mind before he could see a face, so detailed and so alive that dan wasn't sure if it was still all in his head or if his eyes really were open.
his face was clear and handsome, but he opened his mouth and had no teeth; a tongue merely hung out of a hole in the man's mouth, looking so dry that dan felt he could chisel it off with a butter knife. he smiled wickedly at dan before leaning in. his tongue landed limply on dan's face, making him gag. it cut his skin, and dan cried out, trashing wildly in an attempt to push the weight off of him.
the man chuckled, pulling himself up and smiling once more. footsteps sounded from somewhere around the two and the smile dropped from his face. his head whipped around before turning back to dan, a frown on his face.
"seems like you've been heard. what a shame, i was just beginning to have fun with you."
with his words, the man faded from his sight, only scaring dan more. he began to scream.
"we're gonna need to get more tranquillisers for him. he isn't taking this very well."
"are you sure we shouldn't just wake him up? clearly he's lost his mind there in dreamland,"
dan continued to scream, trying to communicate to the people he couldn't see. he didn't want to be asleep anymore. he was horrified: whispering voices were beginning to drown out the others.
"no, we need to keep him asleep at all costs. orders from doctor neinstal.."
"no! wake me up! please, god, wake me up, wake me up!" dan screamed, tears beginning to fall.
a sharp pain in his arm only made him scream louder. he could feel the drugs working quickly, and the white behind his eyelids was starting to fade.
he called for his mum, now crying like a child. she had done this to him. she'd put him here. but now, more than ever, dan just wanted his mother.
