Perfect Poison

BAD DREAM

My eyes faintly fluttered, a sudden agonizing weight pressing over them.  I felt blanketed by two arms cocooning me as a sudden churn of a engine came into action. the background noises quickly melted away, isolation was once again here to befriend me. 

As peculiar as it seemed, when all i can picture is the ebony shadows crawling over me, i didn't want it.  It felt wrong. 

"Ji yoo." A voice grunted. My eyes slowly make sense of the strange voice, fuzzy perceptions, brawled over  a strange grey room. I see a Man, Piecing Emerald eyes crackling with anger. Positioned next to me, his hands run up my neck, towards my chin, gripping it harshly. 

"Still the same Selene." He sighed dissapointedly.

Selene? My name is Serene.

"Wha,what?" I stuttered

"Serene, are you awake?" I stare upwards only this time i see two molten chocolate eyes glistening with relief. Rachel Magoro. The man in question has disappeared from next to me, and is walking out the door shaking his head. 

"Hey wait!" I reached out to pull him back. He was already gone.  "Who are you talking to?" Rachel asked. I looked back to where he had vanished, before staring at my best friend.

 "Am i alive?"i questioned, hesitantly. She quickly nodded.  "You had quite the fall,  good thing i caught that big head of yours when i did." 

i sighed dramatically, making Rachel giggle, her loose curls bouncing happily as i held hands with her tightly. "It's great to see you again Ray."

"You too Ren." 

Thank god, hallucinations are the worst.

"serenity." i glanced across the room to find Ayato  hunched over, his hair unwashed, he looked unfed and barely with us in the room, like he was fading in and out. "Serenity, are fine?" 

i slowly nodded my head, watching my poor brother's condition. "How long has he been up?" i whispered to Rachel. She motioned to my body silently. "You suffered a slight concussion, he's been up all night next to your bedside."  

My brother looked agitated and sleep deprived ,circles forming under he pale skin. He looked regretful, and had aged horribly fast. He looks like he hasn't slept in days."Ayato? Ayato!"  

Rachel smiled sympathetically as i shook whatever left of him i could grasp, his large clothes feeling heavier and larger. "WAKE UP!" i screamed pulling his bony structure left and right.

"You did this to him honey, there's nothing you can do." She whispered softly.

"Well can't i give him my blood?!! something??"

"Ashes to Ashes, dust to air-" "AYATO WAKE UP!" His bones began to break away  "This soul less corpse must Disappear-"

"NO!"  

"SERENE CALM DOWN!"

Water started to spill from my eyes, i felt choked up, i couldn't breathe. All around me were trouble faces, wary people with frightened eyes. 

3 dark figures held me tight, their familiar smell allowing me to gasp for air.

"Breathe." one whispered softly, "Your going to be alright." 

"This is the first time the brat's actually cried." Another spoke hoarsely, gripping my shaking hands for comfort, brother?

The hospital bed, gone, only a long narrow room, immensely dark, with thousands of seats stretched along the border of my bed were present, families huddled together with blankets coating their bodies. A few whispered while staring at me from small crème white booths, Tiny children popping upwards from their own minuscular  sections of bedding to stare into my eyes.  This, whatever it is, is terrifying.
