"Shes dangerous because she's calm in chaos and ruin but anxious in the quiet."

Beth and her friends barely made it through freshmen and sophomore year with their lives. But as time goes on into their junior year and relationships evolve, Henry's need for power, and obsession only grows to a whole new level...

"Who are you?!"

"Doesn't matter. What does matter is your friends lives, so listen closely...."

When Beth has to lie to protect her friends from an unknown source she can't fight and help keep Henry in his place at school she is overwhelmed and things go downhill quickly.

"Why don't you just talk to me?"

"Because talking to you could get you killed," I finally snap.

Will she be able to keep up the act,  or will the stress lead her down a path of wrong choices and possibly life or death matters?

"Who are you anymore?"

"I don't know."

Life is like a balancing act at this point. Too far one way or another and someone gets hurt. And I don't know how to keep this up anymore!

HIGHEST RANKING: 303 IN SCIENCE FICTION Isaac Crowley is your average 15 year old boy. He is a sophomore in high school, plays sports, and hangs out with his friends. Everything in his life is in control, and he knows that he has a bright future ahead. Then the dreams start happening. His best friend Lucy gets hit by a car. He dreams it, and then, it happens again two days later. He tells his parents, his friends, anyone that he can, but they all think that it's just a coincidence. These dreams begin to happen regularly, and the mounting suspense drives Isaac crazy as he tries to diffuse the situation inside his dreams, find someone that he can trust, and prove to his parents that something's wrong. But he spirals further and further down the rabbit hole, and creates a web of lies. NOTE: Well, I just published the story, and It's on Amazon, with this link: http://www.amazon.com/Lucid-Ari-Liam-Lohr/dp/069260765X/ref=sr_1_1?ie=UTF8&qid=1452182800&sr=8-1&keywords=Ari+Lohr This story will probably become just a preview, so I can sell the book. Anyways, thanks for all of your support, guys! I really appreciate it. Once again, thanks for supporting me in the whole process of this book so far. You guys are the reason that I do this. ANOTHER NOTE: Readers, this book's name has changed to "Lucid." I thought that it was more fitting of a name. What do you think? THIRD NOTE: If a chapter is marked "Revised," then I am completely done with it and will probably not update it again.
