The Force

Terrors

Bea's Pov

Luke went back home at the end of the day so I could rest. I didn't mind him staying but he insisted. I kinda wish he had stayed with me tonight.

I took a shower and looked at my shoulder sighing. It was still a little sore but I was going into work tomorrow. Mari is going to make me leave early but I am going to work. I have to hack into my old tracking chip. I managed to get it on Zeke when he walked past me. If he hasn't noticed it yet we might be able to find him.

I got out of the shower and dried off. Then I put on some pjs and laid down in my bed. I wasn't exactly tired. But then I fell asleep.

(Italics are the dream)

I was walking in the street. I knew where I was. It was the old bank. The one that the gang blew up. I saw my dad positioned behind a squad car. I felt my eyes tear up.

"NO DAD! RUN!" I yelled. He turned around and as he did the building exploded sending the car on top of him. I cried. I screamed but nothing happened. It was like I was a ghost. Reliving the past with nothing happening to me. I sat on the ground and sobbed.

I was at the school now. I was taking my test when we heard a small explosion. I froze in my seat. I felt a tear streak down my face. Everyone else were under their desks. The fire alarm went off and I was frozen in place. Someone picked me up and had to carry me out. It was Mari.

I was in that storage building again. But I was looking at myself. I was untied from the chair but I acted like I wasn't. Luke walked in and I stood up holding the gun to his face. And I shot. Then I turned and shot Mari. The chip was on the back of my neck. They made me kill my best friends.

     I bolted awake. I looked around and saw that I was in my room. Alone. I cried. I hugged my knees and cried. This has just been so much. Finding out about Zeke. Then the chip. What if I actually almost did that. I know they aren't dead. But what if I did shoot them. I would have lost my best friends. The guy that I like. Yeah. I like Luke.

     I looked at my phone to see what time it was. 1 AM. I opened my texts and messaged Jon.

Bea: "hey can you give me Luke's address. He left his phone here,"

Jon: "yeah here it is,"

    I looked at the address and smiled a little. I walked outside with my gun in my holster and my phone in my jacket. I walked to the garage and got on my motorcycle. The squad bike was still at the station but mine was faster anyways. I hopped on and put on my helmet. I thought of the roads around here and knew just how to get there. I reved up my bike and started driving.

     What was I going to say when I see him. "Hey Luke I like you and I had a nightmare about killing you! Can I come in?" No that sounds insane. I'll think of it when I get there.

     I pulled in his driveway and looked at his house. The outside was really nice. I realized I had never been here before. I walked to the door and rang the doorbell. I heard a small dog start barking. I waited for a minute then I realized I was still in my pjs. And a leather jacket. Wow.

    "Bea?" He said as he opened the door. A small Boston Terrier stuck its head out the door.

     "H-hey. I need to talk to you. About the warehouse stuff," I said. He nodded and showed me in.

     We sat down together on the couch and the dog sat in between us. I looked at it.

    "What's it's name?" I asked.

    "Betsy," he said. I chucked and pet her. "So what do you want to know?"

     "What did I do when the chip was on?" I asked. His face fell.

     "Well you were acting kinda normal at first then you freaked out. Pointed a gun at me. But you didn't know Marissa had came in the room and she took the chip off," he explained. I felt my face go white.

     "I-I could have shot you...I im so sorry," I said feeling myself tear up. He looked at me and put a hand on my shoulder.

     "It's okay. You couldn't control yourself. Now I don't think that is all you wanted to talk about," he said.

     "Well. I went to bed and I had a nightmare. Don't laugh at me. I saw the bank bombing, then the bombing at our old school, and then I...I killed you and Mari. And I was terrified because I couldn't remember a single thing after the chip was put on. I wanted to know if I actually hurt you guys," I said feeling my eyes tear up. He put a hand on my cheek and wiped my eyes. I moved the dog and hugged him laying my head on my shoulder. He put his arms around me and I relaxed. I felt my eyes slowly start to close as I kept my arms wrapped around him.

     I looked at her and ran a hand through her hair. She must have been really upset. She is just in her pjs. I looked again and saw she had fallen asleep. I went to lay her down on the couch but she wouldn't let go. I chuckled and shrugged walking up to my room. I laid down with her next me. Then she got closer to me. I felt my cheeks heat up. Her face flinched and I put my arms around her. She calmed down and I smiled. Slowly I started to fall asleep.
