Toxic Colors

Chapter four

Dirt flings into the air as her legs kick away from her home. A ax weighing in the girls hand. Rain matting her brown hair, making it even darker. Sleeveless shirt in the chilling air and blue shorts that's so muddy you can't even tell the color.

Trees crowed around her as she zigzags between them, branches hitting her bare arm.

A human figure comes into view as she hold up her ax, getting ready to swing.

A woman with blond hair with beautiful blue eyes. As the ax reaches her, Nina swings for her and her head cuts off. Blood spilling as the body falls to the ground and Nina just keeps running. Not taking time to look back.

Feet flead, heading straight into continued darkness. Almost 50 feet away is another outline of a human. Nina notices it's a lot bigger and slows her pace. Aching feet scream for a break.

A large man crazily swings in front of her. She tries to hit him with the, now dull ax but misses. She drops the ax and uses all of her force to kick the dirty man down. His head meets the slippery ground first then the rest of his ginormous body.

She heads straight for his head and uses all her muscle to twist the strangers head. A loud crack can be heard on top of the rain as she knows the deed is done.

She picks up her bloody ax and heads off into the night with out hesitation.

Nina snaps her eyes open, as sweat drips down from her forehead as the feeling of dirt surrounds her.

She relizes that all the blankets and pillows have fallen off the full sized bed onto the wooden floors.

She jumps off the bed as a loud thump echos through her shaky body.

A few random clothes lay around as Nina grabs then and runs into the bathroom.

The tiled floor makes her feet slide as she enters the room. A dark purple curtain is pulled as she starts the water, making it steaming hot.

She undresses her pj's as quickly as she can. Even though she is perfectly clean, she feels like she is covered in mud and blood.

She enters and her bare body soaks in steaming water. She grabs a pink bottle of body soap and squirts it into her shaking hands, and loaths her body in it and scrubs as hard as can. She scrubs until her body burns and numbs.

She has never had thoughts so violent! She'd never hurt anything. Neverless another human being.

Never in her life has Nina thought about hurting someone.

But why did it feel so real?

The scolding water seeps into her hair as she try to clean it as best as possible. Her hair feels matted. Just like in her dream.

She pours the shampoo on her head and just scrubs. And scrubs, and scrubs.

Thirty minutes later, the scared girl finally feels clean enough to get out of the shower. She slowly turns the knob of the shower off and her whole body still burns.

She steps out into the open bathroom and wraps herself in a fuzzy green towel and sits down to keep herself from being dizzy and passing out.

As the early morning goes on, the time to go to work comes around. She hops back into her car, shaking the whole times she enters the key.

The car rumbles and all she can think is her turning on a saw and dismemering another human.

She turns the wheel and feels like she's cracking someone's neck just like in the dream. The atmosphere feels violent. She takes a nervous breath as she heads into town.

The roads seems more narrow and twisted then before. She tries to avoid eye contact with anyone, afraid of what she might do.

The heads down the winded roads and arrives. She sees her coworkers working on a new building requested by the city.

The young girl jumps out of her car and looks at the ground the whole time she is walking.

Her heart beat echos In her ears as she hears a voice.

"Hey Nina!" Nathan says happily. "Follow me and you'll be doing this today."

She slowly looks up and meets his blue eyes. She moves her heavy feet to start following here bubbly worker.

"Woahh, what wrong?" Nathan notices.

"Oh!" I say as I clench my teeth. "Uh...I just didn't sleep well "

He nods his head and gives a understanding smile. We reach to the busy side of the building. Saws, nails, drills and so much more are being in use.

No no no!

So many tools...so many weapons.

Nina squeezes her eyes tight as the ax to the young girl flashes in her mind.

She tries to shake it off and tell herself that it's just a dream.

She handles the drill and begins on a piece of wood that is about to fall of the house.

Just a dream, just a dream.

Her eyes widen and almost drops the heavy tool. She doesn't even remember walking towards it and using it. That piece of wood could of been a human.

She steps away and runs into the nearest Porta potty she could find.

The...suprisingly clean Porta potty sprays a small fragrance, trying it's best to make it smell better.

Nina grips onto the small  hand sanitizer dispenser on the blue plastic wall and sees her knuckles turn white.

She'd never hurt anyone. Never.

She looks down at her pants and sees dust. Quickly, she tries her hardest to brush it off. She viciously starts scratching her dark blue pant, desperately trying to get the dirt off. Just like in her dream. Mud. Dirt. Blood.

Why is she acting like this?

Never has she gotten angry at anyone, or hurt anyone in any way. This is not her.

Her once delicate, now tense hands stop moving.

She doesn't trust herself in her own skin.

She doesn't know what she'll do.
