Chapter Twenty-Eight: Fear number One!
Chapter Twenty-Eight!
The last thought I thought before entering my fear landscape was Will, I know that sounds kind of creepy, because right now Eric plunged a needle into my kneck, but it reminded me of all the teasing we did, all the breaths I felt on my kneck, I love Will, and I know that, but right now I have to push my thoughts aside, and focus on the task at hand.
My surronding started to form, four walls grew aroumd me forming a room, the roof added in slowly, more, and more things started to form, a window, a desk, a closet, I immediaatly reconignized the fear, I already felt my heart racing.
I was now standing, in my former room, in Candor. I remembered my entire room, black and white, it all looks so real, I can feel the desk, the drawer, my bed. The only thing, keeping me from being all, I miss home, blah, blah, blah, is that right now, I know that my fear will start, and I'm afraid, that I will loose it!
Keep calm, Christina, nothing even happened yet! I kept telling myself over, and over again, but just the thought, of what was going to happen freaked me out!
Something fluttered into the room, I saw the wings of a MOTH Stay still! I told myself, then the Moth fluttered closer, I still didn't move,Moths don't hurt right, right!?! still trying to stay calm, the Moth landed on my nose, and any calm thought I have completely desapiered from my brain, like they never accured.
I started, flapping my arms, and stomping my feet. GET IT OFF ME!!!!! Is all I could think. I managed to slap the Moth, to it's death, but then came two more, I swated, and kicked, but for every one Moth, i'd kill two more came, I ran outside, into the streets of Candor, trying to escape the swarm of Moths, I'm fast! I think If I move fast enough I can out run them! I pick up my speed to a full run, I can my heart beat was in my ears, now.
I kept running, turning corner, after corner. I kept yelling for help, but it was like, not a single person, could hear me! I started to feel tired, and the swarm of Moths were gaining on me. I couldn't stop though, I kept running, I am fast, so I managed to out run them a bit. I continued to run, untill I tripped, over a rock, and fell on the floor.
I got up, and continued to run, but my ankle was hurting me, and I ran for so long, that after 10 minutes, I tripped over my own feet! I let myself have a five second brake, before continuing to run! One! I held my ankle, and clentched my teeth together. Two! I try to breath, and manage to slow my heart race, just a little bit Three! I look around at all these people, no ones even looking at me, it's like I'm a ghost! Four! I see the moths coming around the block, there are so many! Five! Times up!
I continue to run......
When I realized that every time, my heart skipped a beat from fear more moths appeared, I placed my hand on my heart, every time, I felt my heart skip a beat, I would turn around, and check to see how many moths there were. After many checks, I realized that my theory was corecct, which is why after, a few seconds, of conflicting thoughts, I did something.
I stopped running.
I was so afraid, of the moths becoming bigger, and that thought made me stop, made me rather face the moths, than after a while face them all at once, and that's when, I turned around. My eyes saw the swarm, my ears heard the sound, but I stayed still. That's when, the moths disapeared, all the outside trees, started to come down. one by one every single object, or deformed, or simply dissapeared.
Until, nothing was left, and everything blackened, and once again I was left alone in the dark.
