Every night she would have the same dream, a dream accompanied by restless moans and a unquiet body that knew not the meaning of peace.

It was a dream like no other, a dream comprised of preposterous and inane horrors never before seen in the real world. It was a dream, a nightmare of monsters, demons of the white eyes and the clear see through wings, and yet the worse thing wasn't the monster themselves, it was the stain of crimson, the streams of endless blood and dead bodies, that was the true horror.

"NO!" The girl yelled as she awoke from bed, throwing the covers off of her sweat covered body.

Julie May knew that she would not get one moment of soothing sleep, it seemed to be inevitable that the same nightmare that had plagued her dreams since she was five years old would still continue to haunt her to this day.

Julie brushed the dripping sweat from her brow as she struggled to catch her breath. "God dammit." She whispered to herself as she slowly got out of bed.

It was 6:30am and Julie's room was filled to the brim with the cold air that herald the coming morning. Julie hated the cold, she hated the numbness that touched her skin, and yet she would not go back to sleep, no she would get ready for school.

Julie ploddingly got dress, the bags under her eyes ever present. She combed her long black hair, she brushed her pearly white teeth and got dress in casual cloths along with her favorite grey hoodie. Soon with her backpack over her shoulder Julie exited her room and leisurely walked into the dining room, where her mother was making breakfast.
501Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ68QuJgCNsb
Julie sat down at the dining room table and rubbed her eyes trying to remove the drowsiness and fatigue as a yawn escaped her lips.

"And a good morning to you to." Julie's mom, Jennifer May said as she walked towards the table holding a plate full of scrambled eggs, beacon, as well as two pieces of toast.
501Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡx5F1iqU7cm
"Your up early." Jennifer said as she sat down next to her daughter.
501Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZU4mWkdXq3
Julie rubs her temple. "Yea I couldn't sleep."
501Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡyRfpRQrkhe
"The same dream?"
501Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwxr84FB74s
Julie nods her head. "Yes, like always I "dream of dead people."
501Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHVQOuRxfpS
Jennifer rubs her daughters shoulders. "You are taking your medication aren't you?"
501Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAyqahY5gYS
"I hate taking it, I don't want to seem like some kinda crazy person." Julie said annoyed.
501Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJuc5TCWsJ3
"Julie their is nothin wrong with..."
501Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7EMgzsNFqZ
"Yea what ever." Julie said cutting her mother off.
501Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDa1qLGETHN
Julie stood up and walked towards the front door. She didn't want to listen to her mothers wants and desires, nor did she feel like being comforted like a weak person.
501Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGoHWNQDB8m
"Julie!" Jennifer shouted as she followed her daughter.
501Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbkWEVAdU9D
"I'm not hungry ok, I'm going to school."
501Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcx1eGPdABf
Julie walked outside of her house and didn't look back at her mother who stood in the doorway.
501Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbUPYPqIzgB
Jennifer could only watch as her daughter Made her way through the neighborhood.
501Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡm1AntBUbBX
"I hope she's going to be ok."

Julie walked through the neighborhood enraged as her mind drifted to the words of her mother and the horrible thought of medicine. She detested the very idea of sleep and dreams because it was sleep that had caused this problem in the first place. These thoughts fueled her rage like gasoline to fire and yet they would begin to fade as beautiful lights all wielding a different color flew through her brown hair
501Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡeYtaJtb3rW
Julie smiled as she gazed at the small lights the size of a baseball. She smiled as the world that was once so full of darkness seems to light up as these small lights radiated all throughout the neighborhood.
501Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmXHKtkEEOu
Julie didn't know what these small things where, she didn't know where they came from or even what they where called, she only knew two things for sure. What ever these little lights where, they where ridiculously fast, even now Julie could hardly see them as they darted from one place to the other with amazing speed. The second thing Julie knew with great confidence was that she seemed to be the only person who could see these tiny wonders.
501Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTbJcP4RKaA
Julie brought her gaze up to the blue sky, she focused her eyes as much she could and she saw them, creatures of massive proportion flying high deep within the clouds. She looked towards the people who she called her neighbors and of course the people who where nothing but strangers and yet still she saw them, little creatures that stood perched on peoples shoulder, or hidden within the shadows of the large houses. This was her world, the world of the unseen.
501Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxdcEhvmQe1
"You can see them can't you?"
501Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡz0URnNsnML
Julie stops walking and looks to her right, it was then she noticed him sitting on a wooden bench. Who she saw was a young boy who looked to be around her age, a young boy covered with a black blanket and who's hair was pure white with small blue flakes at the the very end of each strand.
"I'm sorry?" Julie asked while looking at the strange boy who was currently smiling at her.
501Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIPt8MqjCjE
"You can see them can't you?" The boy repeated.
501Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnK08OGW2pR
Julie was taken back from the boys words she couldn't help but wonder was this white haired boy like her, could he really see the things that she could.
501Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTY4QlMcTL6
The boys smile grew wider as he saw Julie contemplating his question. "You may be able to see them but that's not the true question."
501Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡyt3oSJRE1v
"Question? What question?" Julie asked.
501Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNoh64MmfPo
"The question is wether or not you can hear it."
501Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYi0G3Ugwu7
Julie stood even more confused. "Hear what?"
501Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjkOCNrFiwP
"Can you hear the Fairy's songs"501Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1qSsBSKxx7
501Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡahzNgysjSS
The boy’s words sent a shiver down Julie’s spine. She had never heard of anything like this before. Fairy songs? It sounded like something out of a fantasy novel. But here she was, face to face with someone who seemed to know something she didn’t.501Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnSl681Wb40
