Raspberry's Second Life

Awake Non-Lucid Semi-Lucid

I'm handed a cello and told to go sit down. I try to argue, telling her that I don't play cello, I play piano. She refuses to listen, so I take my seat, defeated. I experiment by playing a few strings, but none of it's good. I look around the circle of people, all holding string instruments. Is this the school string group?

There's an older man sitting on what looks like a lifeguard seat. I quietly tell him that I've never played cello before. He smiles kindly and says I'll be just fine.

The teacher screeches at me to stop talking, and then hands me a sheet of lines to write out.

[Dream skip - A few hours] We're now on a school trip. But since I'm in my teachers bad books, I'm not allowed past the bus. They all leave, so I look around. There's a path going around the side of a hill, to my right. I break into a car and drive up there. But I go too fast and suddenly the hill is a cliff. I spin and knock a car off the cliff, swiftly following it.

[Dream skip - A minute] I'm in a wreckage. It's dark, dust clouding the air. I choke a little a try to get up. Someone pins me down.

"Little bitch, you'll pay for this." It must be the man who I knocked off the cliff. He doesn't look hurt, but he's furious. He holds me down and grabs my face. I scream at him to get off of me, and try to kick him off. We struggle for awhile, and I hit him numerous times. Someone grabs him and pulls him off me. I'm shaking and scared. The guy sits down beside me and puts his arms around me. I recognise him as Asher, he kisses me and then the dream skips again

[Dream skip - Unknown] I'm in a small shop. A garage perhaps. I know I'm dreaming but I'm not fully aware. I see a pale boy sitting down, black hair... It's Asher! I go over to him, smiling. I sit on his lap, and he says he needs to introduce me to someone. I extend my hand in front of me and motion upwards. The door across the room opens. He grins and takes my hand. It's a toilet, but there's a blond girl sitting on the window ledge.

She says she's his sister, Katie. I smile. She's got short hair, and is small. She's a little intimidating actually. I motion upwards again, a bowl of water crawls into the air. Her eyes widen. I turn to talk to Asher but... he's gone.

I begin the panic. "Where is he..?"

Katie's eyes are dull. "He has some things to take care of."

I run outside. The streets are busy. I can't find him anywhere. He just got here, and we have to talk! I have so much to ask him. The sun blinds me.
