Chaprer 7 the dream

           a couple hours after i get home i go up to my room. i get undressed and put my pocket knife on my bedstand. i get into bed and even though i dont want to sleep because my dreams haunt me i slept anyways.

I look around and all i can make out is fire and my sister. her face is unlike anything ive seen before. blood and burns all over and shes screaming begging me to run but i dont want to leave her. unable to do anything i watch her burn to death. then everything explodes.

i hear a squeek in my floor without moving i look at my clock. its 2 am in the morning. i hear foot steps again and this time i move quickly grabbing the knives under my pillow and throwing them twoards the sound.

i get angry with myself when i hear the knives hit the wall. i move over to my bedstand and grab my pocket knife.. but its missing i know i put it there before i went to sleep! the intruder decides to speak "shoot first ask questions later huh?" Franz? "Franz?" i say outloud this time.

what the hell is he doing in my house? or am i just dreaming? i grab my blanket and put it around my body then i switch on my lamp "well i was hoping you wouldnt wake up" he says with a smirk as he twirls my pocket knife in his hand.

i narrow my eyes and as quick as i can i jump to my dresser so i can grab another knife but before i can hes in front of me. "hey hey no need to get that. i dont bite" he says "why the hell are you here!!" i yell at him.

he looks at me and i can notice that he's looking at the blanket wraped loosely around my body. i tighten my hold on the blanket and try to think of a plan while he talks. "i just wanted to check in, see how you were. especially since you abandonded me at the mall."

i loosen my composure so he thinks that im not planning anything "how'd you know where i live?" i say trying at a playful voice. i loosen on the blanket causing him to be obviously distracted by the looseness of the blanket on my body.

"i have my ways" he says. taking my opportunity i throw the blanket in his face, trying my best to ignore the fact that im now naked, and run for one of the knives in the wall once i grab it i turn around and see that his still momentarily distracted by the blanket in his face i run twoards him tackeling him to the ground putting my knife to his throat as a warning.

the shock registering in his face when he notices the prediciment hes in.

"well you sure are fiesty for a naked girl" he says and my face goes red. "tell me why you're really here" i say trying to look angry but failing because im embarassed by my lack of clothes.

i look at him and he gets this far away look in his eyes "i was hoping i wouldnt have to do this" he whispers so quietly i almost missed it. all of a sudden my vision blurs "what?" i manage before i fall limp and pass out.
