Corrupted Dreams

Chapter Seven

???'s P.O.V

I sense quite a few astrials in one spot tonight. Must be a get together of some sort. I decide to fly there. Yes, astrials can fly. But you can only choose where to go if you know you are asleep. That's called being lucid, by the way. I see six astrials, all are floating randomly above one house. I look at my choices. All of them are female. One catches my eyes. I think she's the one I haunted last night. Then again, I haunted multiple people last night. I fly up to her face to get a better look. Yep, this is the one. Luckily she can't see me since she isn't lucid. Well, this will be fun. 

-Time skip to after the dream-

That was...odd. Not her reaction, but my reaction. I kinda feel guilty. Iv'e never felt guilty about scaring anyone before. So why the heck am I feeling like this? Never mind, I'll just haunt someone else here. I fly up to a different girl, but before I invade, I notice my brother. 

"What now?" I ask, clearly irritated.

"I came to give some of these astrials dreams, like you. Well, you give them nightmares, but still." He replies. 

"I claimed this house before you came, therefore it is mine for the night. Go do your happy rainbow crap somewhere else."

"But there is enough astrials here tonight for us to share."

"What part of me would ever make you think I'm willing to 'share' anything?" I say the word share while doing air quotes.

This conversation is so stupid.

"Well I know you have some good in you, so I thought if I asked nic-"

I cut him off. "I'm not a good person or whatever." I begin. "In fact, if it wasn't for that stupid medicine dad forces me to take, I would be a murderous psychopath!" I scream at my idiot of a brother. 

I then go into someone's dream and corrupt it. Man it feels great to hear the cries for help. Especially when I know no one will come to the rescue.
