The night air was cold and crisp.It felt as if it could cut you down to your very bones.Juilet Newberry ran as fast as her feet could run. She wasn't sure what she was running from, only that she must get away, far, far away. Suddenly she felt herself begin to fall. Deeper and deeper she fell. Falling, falling she just kept falling, oh how she wishes that she would wake up from this nightmare that had become a part of her life ever since she could remember. Usually, she woke up by now, but for the first time since the nightmare started, she felt herself go deeper and deeper into the well. Why couldn't she wake up?  What was going on? Something was wrong, she could feel it. Where was the safety button that was supposed to be here? Someone had removed it. The button was the last minute exit in case she became trapped in her nightmare unable to awaken, it was for her safety but now she was unable to find it and she became frighted. Suddenly she felt someone violently shaking her and yelling her name. Juliet, wakeup, Juliet, wake up, you have to wake up now. With a shout, she awakens with sweat pouring from her head. Are you alright Juliet?she heard someone ask her. She didn't understand at first where she was or who was speaking or what had happened she was so confused, her head felt like it was in a fog, she felt as if she were still in her nightmare but she couldn't be, could she?

Juliet slowly sits up, she looked around and realized that she was back in Doctor Chesters office.Doctor Chester was her dream therapy doctor. He was helping Juliet come to know the meaning of her nightmare, the meaning of the dream that had plagued her for 2 years now. Juliet what happened, what went wrong? Doctor Chester was asking her.Why didn't you push your escape button, like we discussed when things got too intense for you in your dream? She looked at him and said it, it, it wasn't there.

What do you mean that it wasn't there Juliet? It must have been it was your escape button only you knew where it was hidden. Maybe for some reason, you chose to move it and you just forgot where it was. Yes, that must have been what I did. I moved my escape button and forgot where I moved it to.Yes, that is it. There for a moment, I thought that someone knew where I had hidden my escape button other than me. 

But Doctor Chester for the life of me I can not fathom why I would be so inclined to move my escape button and then not only forget that I had moved it but forget where I had moved it to as well.  Oh, what is wrong with me?Am I losing it? Am I?Now Juliet please get ahold of yourself and calm down. you are not losing it, you are probably just a little stressed out over the dream. Here let me give you something to help with your anxiety and to help with the nightmare, it should stop the nightmares at least for a little while.Come see me next week and tell me how the medicine is working and we will work on finding out the meaning of your dream some more, ok?

Ok Doctor Chester.Next week then. Bye, and with those words, Juliet Newberry walked silently into the night air and was never seen alive again.Her body was discovered about a mile from her home. She had been viscously torn to pieces and her body or what was left of it was thrown into a well. This was not the first time that someone's body had been viciously torn to pieces in the small town of Birdville. Over the past 5 years, there had been five different bodies of different races, shapes and sizes come up missing and then turned up all torn up and thrown away like trash.

When the police came to Doctor Chesters office a week after Juliet Newberry had been reported missing and then found two days later He was in shock. He told them that yes she had missed her appointment that week and no he did not think that there was anything strange about it because she had missed her appointments before.He told them that Juliet was indeed an unstable girl and was on medication but that she was coming to terms with her dreams that she had been having. They ask him what the meaning of her dream was and he says that he could not tell them because of doctor/patience privilege. All that he could tell the was that she was very disturbed by her dreams and was afraid that someone was following her.

After the police left Doctor Chesters office he went into the back of his office locked the door behind him and began the long way down to the basement. He turned on the lights as he walked down the stairs and into the heart of his secret place that only his victims were aware of and even they never tell anyone what goes on here. Once they are brought here to this place, Doctor Chester tries with all his might not to do what he does but it is in his blood to do it. Once the moon is up and the shadow of the clouds shine its light on him he changes, changes into it. The beast that will forever be apart of his waking dream. The part of him that hunts at night and kills at night and makes his life a living hell.The beast that came to be 5 years ago and now comes out every month when the night moon is full. Oh if only he could find the one who turned him this way but for now he must live with this never-ending nightmare of his.
