Chapter,1
I always seemed to get lost in my head overthinking as I'd watch the cars and the people go by
So many endlessly possibilities that had started to drown me within my own head
Random thoughts popping into my head like that of a director writing lines for the characters in a movie
Though I was simply waiting to cross the street, I had already imagined myself in a situation I knew could never happen
"What would I do if I it were suddenly an apocalypse?"
"If I was could fly"
"Or if I suddenly teleported into another dimension...?"
Sometimes I'd think so hard,...
That at a point, I would actually believe it happened
I Took a glance at the timer that would hover above me every time I would cross this street...
Glowing so pretty...
It always brought so many memories
...10 seconds for the light to go red. Then I'd have to wait again
It was already 6pm, I had nowhere I needed to get rush too
I still needed to get home quick though
One foot in front of the other
I had already crossed halfway
But my feet refused to go any further
My legs not wanting to move
My eyes pleading; Begging. "Someone please come help me"
1 Second and people were filming
The last thing I remembered was a truck rushing towards me
Too big to notice a small being...
... Who was now seconds away from doom
I'm sure it happened within seconds, but the Tank Truck seemed to be approaching me ever so slowly, like it was asking for permission to move further
And yet it was going to fast for me to even scream
Or flinch
And I still couldn't move
The beautiful streets that would always glow as the lights would come on a bit before 6 o'clock
I loved how it glittered... Especially at night
I would always roam around the shops nearby and sit on a bench as I'd gaze at the beautiful city lights
It brought back so many good memories
But the Streets...
Didn't look so special anymore
All the thoughts in my head slowly begun to dissipate
Like smoke slowly vanishing into the cruel cold air
That wouldn't let my mother's plants grow
She'd always get mad as she watched they all die
But those were only my thoughts.

I couldn't believe my eyes
Just now... I was as good as gone
I sat up straight examining my surroundings
White walls, and the distinctly strong smell of medicine
An IV fluid stood towering over me...
Both me and someone I hadn't seen before
I watched as The fluid slowly dropped into the tube
It reminded me of the days I'd stay home during a storm and couldn't go play with my friends...I would cry because of it. I hated the rain
After all
I was only 6
Rainn
I should be asking you that...
He got up from the chair he sat me and walked slowly over to were the hospital bed laid
He looked so friendly and nice in his sleep
Though I couldn't make out his face, he seemed...
Calm
Rainn
Or rather
What are you
His words alone were enough to give me shivers
it took me a while to respond, the atmosphere feeling now tense
only then did I realize the gap between his face and mine, couldn't even fit a pencil
Then intrusive thoughts began creeping in
I pushed him away as far as my weak body could
Surprisingly he said nothing
It was awkwardly silent now...
Vera
well I was hit by a truck and...
Rainn
You just spawned ontop of my car
Rainn
I could've been the one to die
Vera
You know you're not making any sense
Rainn
You're so heavy, my Car has a dent now.
Rainn
First, You die
2. You work for me
For free of course
Vera
you think I'm five or something?
Rainn
Well, I can't tell exactly what you are but that doesn't really matter. All I know is, you owe me a bunch of money and you're flat broke
Vera
I really don't understand what you're saying... Why do I owe you!? I don't even know you!
The cold look in his eyes as he stared at me was probably enough for even hell to freeze over
Rainn
You think This is funny huh Lucy?
Rainn
Don't play dumb with me!
Rainn
So you're either gonna pay me,
Rainn
Or you know what happens
Rainn
I want my money Friday Lucinda
Honestly, I was beyond infuriated
"Is this guy Trying to take advantage of me?"
That's what I thought to myself
I got up ready to leave
Not wanting to hear anymore of his bullshit
And then I couldn't move anymore
Vera
Why won't my feet work!?
I was already incredibly confused but what I saw next...
Vera
And it's... FLOATING!?
Rainn
And you're asking if I'm drunk.
I meant that in a calmer rone considering I had a floating knife held up to you my neck but the words came out in a way I hadn't intentioned
A lot louder and a more mocking-like tone
Rainn
Your worst Nightmare
