CODE RED (Book 1)

Devastation

The dream happened to me again. I saw my own self standing in front of me once again, crying and staring dead ahead like I wasn't there.

He kept staring into the flames of what once was a barn. I turned around to look at the burning wood turn to ash as smoke lifted from the spread about grass and hey on the ground.

I continuously wondered why I was having this dream, not only once but over and over again, it was as if I was in a marathon in my own delusional mind. This clearly wasn't real but everything from the sounds, the sensations, and what was standing burning in front of me looked entirely like reality.

like I was reliving this moment in my life. But I knew nothing like this had happened in my life and I refused to believe it would happen in my future.

I looked back to my other self standing there with tears in his eyes falling down his cheeks to mix with the blood on his one cheek.

I wondered why he had so much blood on him when it didn't appear that he was hurt.

slowly but surely he began to fade away and so did the dream world around me.

I closed my eyes slowly and that was when I woke up.

I gasped sitting up strait in a darkly lit room, my body perspiring coldly, my eyes dilated looked around at my surroundings.

"You're awake!" came a voice then I heard the quick shuffle of feet leaving away from me distantly and a moment later I heard other foot steps coming my way before they came from around the corner.

I noticed Alex, Nai, D.C, my mom and a women in a nurse uniform standing near the door way.

they all stared at me in expectation but I wasn't paying attention to them but rather the person that was missing.

If I could remember his name it had to be. . . . . .Yogi?

My mind was still foggy from the drug they had given me to put me to sleep, and I felt a lot more calmer now but soon enough the earlier news I had learned from that guy, came back to me.

My face turned stony as I slowly looked down at my lap as I started to shack.

The nurse that was standing in the room with us quickly walked over to me and ordered me to pay attention to her voice as my shacking increased until I had to clench onto the small bed I was on just to try and calm myself down.

Mentally my mind wasn't afraid but my body was, and it wasn't listening to my brain what's so ever.

She gently placed her hand around my arm in a means to calm me.

My body was stiff as if I had been frozen in place, my memory came back to me of what yogi had said.

I couldn't believe it, he was out of jail. What was I going to do now? Was I going to die? Did the police really have this under control like Yogi had said they would?

"Gareki?" came a voice.

I snapped out of my terrified thoughts and looked up at Alex who had spoken to me and just like that I felt calm by the look he gave me.

I understood that he had been worried about me, no doubt about it considering his worried face before I had been drugged to fall asleep.

My body stopped shacking as he came closer to me, the nurse stepped back and he came up to me before asking if I was alright.

I wanted to nod my head and answer him but a lump caught in my throat and all I could do was answer truthfully by shacking my head looking back down at my lap.
