The dreams of a crazy person

Blue Nectar

You're swimming, it's hard, the water is like sludge, your muscles burn, but you push on, you tell yourself that you're lucky, you get to go to an elite school, you shouldn't get kicked out for not being fast. You reach the pool's edge, you're breathing hard. A hand holding a vial of blue liquid reaches down to you, the liquid looks like laundry detergent. You look up at the offerer, it's a short boy with light blonde hair, "It will make you fast" he says. Without a second thought you chug the bottle. It tastes sweet, like what you imagine nectar would taste like. It takes a moment but soon you're running across the water with ease, you run across the waters surface onto the pavement the out the gyms doors into a hallway. You pause to catch your breath but you feel amazing. then you notice him. there's a little pudgy red demon sitting on your shoulder, his face is mostly his toothy grin. he doesn't move his mouth but he speaks "To get rid of me, let the blood run free, and get someone to F E E D." you understand immediately and pull a pair of tiny scissors from your pocket. You open the blades before proceeding to run one of the blades across the surface of your skin, you're using enough force that the skin should be cutting but it isn't. You huff walking down the hall while still trying to pierce your skin. The skin finally breaks on an area between your knuckles. You make the cuts so that your skin flaps up. You put your mouth to the wound and suck up the crimson fluid that's begun dribbling down your fingers. you turn to the demon

He shakes his head, so no, you mustn't drink the blood, someone else must. you look around, the blood still in your mouth, it now mixing with your saliva. You see a girl with a short blond haircut walking nearby, you know her to be in the cooking club. You walk up to her, grabbing her by the shoulders. You kiss her hard on the lips, her mouth opens a bit in shock. You take the opportunity and spit into her mouth. she squeaks, then you pull away, some of the blood is dripping out of her agap maw, you notice the devil now sitting on her shoulder. You run away.

You run for awhile before noticing footsteps following you. you flip around and see 3 suited men in black masks with red goggled eyes running after you. You run faster, noticing the elevator at the end of the hall. your leap in and hit three random floors. the masked men watch you go up in the windowed elevator before all running off in different directions. You think you're safe at last. the door opens on the first floor you pressed and one of the masked men is waiting. You scream as he leaps in and pins you against the wall. The masked man cocks his head at you as the elevator door closes behind him. once it's closed he he gets off you and pulls something out of his pocket. It's a bandaid. He pulls the wrapper off. The bandaid is printed with little rainbows and smiley faces. He puts it on the cut you had given yourself, his hands were gloved. you stare at him in confusion, he jsut turns towards the elevator doors. They open again and his two friends step in. They stand around you in a protective triangle, to keep things from getting you- or to keep you from getting away- you don't know.

You're standing on a dock, the three masked men standing next to you. the four of you stare out at the sea. A massive fish emerges from the sea,Her scales shimmered in the dying of the sunlight. The color seeped put of her and into the sky like a petroleum spill. Or like how a bubble of wax separates from the mass in a lava lamp. It was gorgeous.

The masked man who gave you a bandaid pushes you into the sea, the bandaid he gave you peels off in the water and floats away; your blood now flows into the water, reflecting every color of the rainbow like the scales of the fish. You sink into the murkiness of the ocean, fixated on the beauty of your blood.
