Nightmare Forgiving Cooper (Natalie)
Slowly reaching out a hand a tap softly on the door and wait for a response. “Ash, please go away. I know that you are only checking on me because Natalie would want you to, but I don’t want to talk to anyone at the moment. So just go away.” “If thats really what you want.” I say softly, I begin turning away listening to see if Cooper makes a move towards the door. I smile softly to myself when I hear the soft rustling of his footsteps on the carpet as he walks towards the door. He rips the door open and stops dead, his breathing comes out in short sharp breaths as if he doesn't know how to react to my unexpected visit. Slowly I take a step towards him. “Hey Coop...” I wait hesitantly before taking another small step towards him. “Can I come in and talk to you?” He looks around and down the hallway probably checking to make sure that Ash hadn’t been waiting to pounce and try and come into the room with me. “Yeah, I guess.” Slowly he takes a step back into the room and opens t
Nightmare Friends and Family (Natalie)
She lays her head on my shoulder as she tries to stop crying. “Why... why did the master have to do that?” she stutters as she tries to stop crying. “I guess, he thought by targeting the people that mattered to me the most that he could cause some problems with in the group. That you, would blame me for what happened to both of them and that you along with a lot of the others would leave me and Ash to fight by ourselves.” Alex shakes her head, “How could that possibly be your fault, if anything it makes me want to kill the bastard more.” The conviction in her voice startles me and I release a small laugh. “Yeah, he sure is a bastard. Alex I really just wanted to apologise about Nick and Aaron. If I had of been just a bit faster to get there I could have stopped the whole thing from ending like that. I could have shot Nick in the arm or leg. Which would have allowed Ash to grab him and Aaron would not have been injured.” Alex stares at me softly, before her eyes fill with t
Nightmare Home (Natalie)
Images continue to haunt me as I think about Lyrica and about Harvey and Andrew. They are dying for my cause and they don’t deserve that. Searching through the streets, I continue to come up empty handed, Cooper seems to be nowhere so I decide to walk home. I can hardly walk with the lack of energy that is flowing through my body, theres been to much anguish and heartbreak to push me through to the end of this war. I’ve been fighting for too long, this battle is taking too long and everyone I love is slowly dying. I walk passed my old house, well whats left of it, most of the ruins are ash and there are a couple of small fires that still lay around the area. The other houses that use to stand here too are now piles of rubble that the monsters have created. As I struggle to keep walking towards Ash’s house my body aches. It’s like every pain you could ever imagine happening all at the same time, well except when you go into labour. I don’t think I quite feel that much pain. Image
Nightmare Natalie’s Heart (Cooper)
The silence is scary, not a noise comes from anywhere. You can see the patches of blood still on the road where the guys haven’t cleaned yet, but the small wet patches hint at the small effort made as they tried to clean the blood away. As we walk up the front door, Ash slowly places a hand on the door and knocks gently. “Hello?? It’s me.” There’s a rushing sound from inside as some rushes to open the door. Surprisingly its not Alex that opens the door, its Josh. His eyes are swollen and puffy, turning red showing signs that his been crying over the people that have died. His hair is disheveled and all out of place, and he’s still covered in dirt and blood. “Good to see ya mate.” The words seem so unnatural as they fall out of Josh’s mouth. Ash nods his head, “It’s good to see you too.” “How are you Cooper?” I glance at him surprised, “I’ll recover, I think.” He gives a small nod, “Yeah thats pretty much what everyone else is telling themselves.” I nod “How are you?” “I’m okay
Nightmare Forgiveness (Cooper)
I jerk awake suddenly as the chill in the breeze wakes me causing shivers to run through me. I lift my head slowly and realise that it is eerily silent. No insect voices carry on the air, and there isn’t a single sound of battle in the distance. Sadness fills me as I wonder if now all my friends are gone, because again I have abandoned them. I’d been able to see the light through the darkness but it hadn’t been able to stop me from plunging straight into the unknown. Suddenly I hear footsteps racing along the bitumen, then as it gets closer I can hear there heavy breathing. I lay there paralysed waiting for the master to round the corner and slaughter me just like the rest of my friends. But instead I see the dark black hair of someone familiar. The deep brown eyes that stare at me with sorrow and concern confuse me. “Cooper?” His voice comes out as a croak “Cooper are you okay?” “Why would you care?” Disgust in myself makes the words come out quite harsh, but Ash doesn’t even f
Nightmare Angry with myself (Cooper)
Flash backs of holding the bow and pointing it at Natalie continue to flash through my mind as I round the corner away from the fighting. Sadness and dismay fills my heart as realisation takes over, I could have just killed Natalie. That though echoes inside my head as I continue to run away. The devastation of what I’ve done propelling me forward and further away from everyone I’ve come to love. Finally the emotions take hold of me and I collapse to the ground. How could I do that, I thought I had more control over myself after the master tried to manipulate me. But I guess I was wrong again. Again I was not strong enough for Natalie and I have failed her. Darkness and anger fill me overwhelming the sadness that recently filled my heart. Anger courses through my veins, this is all the master’s fault. Though I know that I played a major part in it, the master is the person who caused this. The rough bitumen scratches my back as I fell my blood becoming controlled by the anger. Image
Nightmare Final showdown (Natalie)
Adrenaline courses through me as I take down monster after monster. The numbers seem never ending, but we keep fighting, blood that is mostly not mine stains my clothes and my skin. Sweat pours down my skin blending with the sticky blood and dirt that covers me. Ash seems to be in the same predicament, though he seems to have a lot more sweat covering him. His white shirt is practically see through except for the blood that stains large areas of it. We must fight for hours but the sun seems not to move from its position in the sky. Ash and I beginning to tier when there is a loud battle cry from down the end of the street. Glancing up I notice that Alex is at the front of the group of people. Her tear stained cheeks and puff swollen eyes are the only reminder of what she just faced moments ago. She holds a sword in her right hand and a shield is on the other. Lyrica and Cooper stand on either side of her, and the rest of the group are spread behind. Rage seems to pour of Alex as she
Nightmare Trying to convince the monsters (Natalie)
The next few minutes are fuelled by anger and a new form of hope. The master doesn’t appear to be with them, I keep searching for him with my head but I am unable to find him, whether that is because he doesn’t want to be found or he is incapacitated from something I don’t know but I keep fighting. Monsters charge forward whether because that is the masters orders or because they want to I don’t know but they keep coming. I can hear Ash grunting and the clashing of his sword when it meets monsters claws. The blood has started to cover not just my clothing but the bitumen as well. But there is nothing that will stop this renewed belief. As we fight I notice that the ground has started shaking again, Ash and I both look up suddenly distracted by the sudden commotion. There is suddenly a loud roar from down the road and I see Black and Blue leading at least one hundred monsters in a charge towards the monsters that surround us. The monsters stop fighting and look at their brothers that
Nightmare For Aaron (Natalie)
I hear the bow hit the ground but I can't do anything except stare at Nicks lifeless body. To think that I've come all this way, and I actually killed a human being. A sense of dread takes hold of me and I wonder what it would be like in the minds of those that actually murder for fun. Alex is laying on top of Aaron who I was too late to save. Ash is looking at me, gauging my reaction. But all I can do is stare at Nick, a consuming feeling of guilt crashes through me. I could have prevented all this if I'd just killed the master while I was in his brain. I know it would have killed me but at least I would be the only one that’s dead. Now two innocent boys are dead because of me. If I had been that second earlier I could have shoot him in the arm or something. Through my mental torment I finally succumb to the exhaustion and collapsed to the ground. I hear Ash call out my name, but I'm too tired, to tired to care anymore and quite frankly to tired to move. His footsteps echo down the
