I can't quite remember how my persona looks like in this Dream, but I remember I was with two other girls and boys. One girl was a hazlenut brunette, with shoulder-length, layered hair and she was a bit of a bitch. The other had a bit of an Asian feature (since the other was Caucasian) with long, elbow-length, raven hair. She had a sweet disposition and clung to me like a friend would. There were two boys; one, tall African-American with a bit of a fro, and one normal, built guy with short, dark hair and teal eyes.
We were investigating a cursed Japanese school after hearing reports of recent hauntings. We were already knee-deep in shit once we realized we couldn't back out. Just like the famous manga, Corpse Party Blood Covered, there were bodies strewn everywhere, organs and blood decorating the halls and floors. We were trapped in the school by supernatural forces, making it impossible for us to escape.
My Asian friend was a bigger wreck than the rest of us, and she clung to me for emotional support. I was steadfast in leading the team for some reason, and I kept encouraging everyone to keep on going no matter what. The girls walked ahead and the boys kept watch from behind. We had been walking around for a while now, the halls and levels of the school continuously changing like a maze. We were getting tired, and needed a place to rest.
Out of nowhere, a large sliding door appeared in the hallway and upon moving it open, we found a perfectly kept bedroom. The room was not too large and not too small, with a queen sized bed in its middle. It was made up of two mattresses so we figured we could move one to the floor for the boys to sleep while the girls took the bed. We quickly barricaded ourselves in the room, to keep out unwanted visitors, and looked around.
Upon closer inspection, one of the blankets was full of maggots. We immediately threw that one aside and figured we'd sleep without any. While me and my friend were shaking off the sheets of dust and unwanted mites, the brunette was trying to make some moves on the dark-haired boy - which annoyed me greatly. Not only was this not the time for such nonsense, but I think in the Dream the boy and I have a sort of past.
In the Dream, I was attracted to the boy but we weren't in a relationship whatsoever; just close friends. In the Dream however, the backstory is that we both had feelings for each other but had yet to tell the other. And now, this was the last place I wanted to think about those sort of things. Apparently the girl was suggesting to the boy that they find another room to sleep in as this one was too small and cramped, and that just made me madder.
The boy was in an awkward position and instead of giving her a straight answer, he shuffled his way over to me asking, "Can I talk to you for a second..? Alone?"
I was so irritated, I snapped back at him without realizing, "If you wanna frick-frack, go find someplace else. Just don't frick-frack here!" I was actually mad at the girl, but unfortunately I took it out on the guy. Luckily, because I had brought it out in the open, I had shut the girl up and stopped her nonsense before it even began. The boy, though upset I snapped at him, looked grateful he was saved.
I really did not like that girl. I was also very creeped out by all the dead bodies in the school, and how dark it was, but thank goodness nothing chased us throughout the Dream. I have to stop reading that manga before bedtime.
I was a 15-year-old homeless kid, living on the streets with an older woman I called 'mom' and an older girl named Sarah, whom I treated and loved like a sister. We were hobos basically, living on the streets, relying only on ourselves and our wits to survive. Though I was the kid, I was the caretaker of the group. For some reason I was skilled in fighting, and I protected my family.
One day, we return to an old neighborhood of mine. I had history in this particular neighborhood, and before I could avoid it, it had already caught up to me. Suddenly the three of us were shuffled into this big mansion by a group of gangsters, all dressed in black leather. Inside, I recognized the owner of the house. He was a man, who looked near his mid-thirties, and was dressed in all white. Besides his oldest son, who was 14-years-old and with the gangsters who herded us before, he also had a number of adopted children. Some were toddlers and the rest were no older than 7.
His cronies brought us to him as he played with the children in the den. He brings up the past, subtly telling me that now he had captured me, he was going to get his revenge. He had been waiting for a long time now, but he was patient and it showed in his calm demeanor. Flashbacks erupted in my head, and I saw a small boy with black, wavy hair and a wide smile. And I felt so sad, my heart wanted to break because I knew that the child was long dead.
"I'm so sorry.. I didn't mean to... It was an accident! He was the only friend I ever had then, I would never hurt him.." I was on the verge of tears.
Apparently his youngest son, Sam, and I were close friends when we were younger. But he died in a terrible accident an d his father blamed me for his death. His older son never knew about him, probably due to memory suppression, and was lost during our conversation. But after hearing my pleas, he wondered if I really was innocent or not. The doubt showed on his face, especially when his father seemed adamant in getting his revenge on me.
The man in white opened up a door to a very derelict room and told me to go in. It looked like an abandoned child's playroom; ropes and hooks hung from the ceiling, toys in clutters and disguised as torture devices. I went in and he locked me in total darkness. I hid myself in murky bedsheets and covers under the dusty bed, lying in wait and letting my eyes adjust to the dark. I anticipated thugs to come in after me to finish the job, but for some reason the man in white left me alone. Somehow he thought that I had suffocated from something inside the room, and that I'd passed out or died.
Either way, the door of the room was now unguarded and so I escaped. I went upstairs to find my 'family' and found that they were taken hostage in the dining area. Mom and Sarah sat terrified beside each other at the long, dining table, while the gangsters stood at all sides of the room. All the gangsters were armed. Some were seated at the table, some just stood around joking. The son was there too, and only now I realized how much he resembled Sam. I really didn't want to hurt him unless I really needed to. I didn't mind killing the gangsters though.
I stealthily searched the other rooms for weapons. I went into the master's bedroom and found a wall full of firearms. I was awestruck and excited to use them. I took a small automatic machine gun and two automatic pistols, and I was so ready to fuck shit up.
Unfortunately before I reached the dining room, I woke up. But I supposed I saved my 'family' in the end, though not as smoothly as I would've hoped. I would've killed most of the gangsters by the time my ammo ran out. I would get caught by the man in white again, but this time he threatened to kill my 'family'. I'd give myself up for their lives because they had absolutely nothing to with Sam's death. "Killing me won't bring Sam back! As much as I wish it would, I know it won't happen too!" I could imagine myself saying.
Maybe the second son would believe me and understand that it wasn't my fault. He would stand up to his father and admit that he had taken things too far for too long. He saves my life and lets me and my 'family' go. And if he wanted to join our 'family', we would be more than happy to welcome him.
