Lexi lie crumpled in the corner where the bed once was. Her eyes were missing and her tongue had been cut out. Her throat have been slit and her once blonde hair was stained and matted with dark, red blood. I covered my mouth and stumbled back, nearly falling. My eyes closed tightly, but I couldn't get the site to go away. The number one thing I couldn't get to go away was that she was smiling, we mouth was open in a wide smile. The room was silent other than the loud screaming, which took me a few moments to realize it was still me, I was panicking. I couldn't breathe, my body began to go numb, my mind began to spin, I was falling. Sounds became muffled and I felt myself bounce off the ground one, two times. Images began flowing through my mind. My eyes wouldn't focus. Everything was moving quickly.
Then... Footsteps, they grew louder and faster. Someone was coming towards me. Voices came next, laughing at first, then as it got closer there were several screams and shouts. They were just as horrified, or more than mine. I tried to look, but couldn't. "Sarah?!" It was Rogue's voice. His face appeared above me, forehead creased with worry.
I couldn't speak but one word, "Lexi." Then... Nothing.
