“Class, I know that school is almost out for summer vacation, but please quiet down!” some random lady barked the order at us. She was probably a parent volunteer for a teacher who was not present. Where were they anyway? The remaining teachers who were at school corralled us, the students (who either decided to stay for the last half-day of school to goof off with friends and to say goodbye to favorite teachers or were forced to stay because neither of their parents or guardians could get off work), all sit and watch a stupid, educational movie. On the last day of school. I got out a notebook and a pencil and started doodling a random design. I paused as everything blurred out for a second. I was ready to get back to my little drawing when my vision blurred once more, then doubled.
Just close your eyes, it will over soon…
I’ve had visional disturbances since 6th grade and even had to go on a migraine diet because my neurologist thought they were some type of “mini migraines”. First my vision would blur, next it would double, and lastly, it would shake. The pills I take for my constant headaches, migraines, and “mini migraines” only made me tired, which lured me to sleep. I tried opening my eyes once more and found everything to be alright, but as soon as I looked down at my paper (which was covered in scribbles, most- likely on account of me trying to draw when the disturbances were happening) everything started shaking and everything went black as I closed my eyes.
No need to worry, I just need to rest… then the disturbances will fade and everything will be okay…
The black slowly turned to crimson. I was walking in a crimson… a crimson… forest? Weird, but it looked that way and there was a trail of ash. Following the said trail, I arrived at a long table in the middle of a clearing. A woman sitting at the opposite end of the table looked up and smiled. Her features were disfigured and badly burned in some parts and she also appeared to wear a broken crown.
“Welcome… to my wonderland…” she cackled as everything went black.
