Shadows By Day Hunters By Night - Chapter 3 Episode 3 Black Dreams

I don’t really having the same nightmare. Well honestly I don’t really think I had a dream at all. All I can remember is staring into blackness. I soon start to wake up. But everything around me was black. When I started to make out some things they all started to spin. The whole room was spinning.

“IZZY!” I hear someone yell but I can’t make out anything around me. ‘What was happening?’ I finally see my door. I then hear banging. ‘Where is that coming from?’ I hold my head. It was like someone was hitting my head repeatedly. I soon heard barking. “Max?” I say aloud as I try to go to my door but fall. I catch myself on my desk. I shut my eyes as the pain in my head becomes more painful.

“IZZY!”

I look up at my door. I now can make out the voice. “Cole?” I say trying to stand but my legs don’t want to hold my weight. ‘Come on! Just get to the door!’ I lay on the ground, making my way to the door but as soon as I do something pushed me back. I try harder to move but nothing. Suddenly, my breathing stops. I hit my chest trying to gasp for air but nothing would bugged. I see something in the corner of my eye. I slowly turn to see my closet. My eyes widen when I see eyes. ‘Some one was in there!’ These eyes felt like they were piercing my soul. Like it was trying to take it. I try my best to fight it. ‘Whatever or whoever this was wasn’t going to take me down this easy!’ I breath in hard. I manged to get some air in. I slowly stand while still falling a little. “N-nooooOOOO!” I scream at the eyes. Suddenly, my head stopped hurting. My vision was back to normal, well more than before. I look at my closet. The eyes were gone. ‘I won! HA!’ All of a sudden I fall. My whole body became numb. My eyes began to shut but before they did my door opens. Cole runs in with Max. “IZZY!” He yells as he grabs me. My eyes slowly shut…

My eyes open quickly. I look around to see my surroundings. I see that I was in Cole’s lap. My head was laying on his shoulder. His arm was around my lower body. I notice he was asleep. I go to get off when I almost step on Max. “Sorry.” I whisper to him. I stand next to the sofa. ‘My head was still blur. I didn’t know weather if that was my dream or real…’ I shake my head. I remember those eyes…I sigh. ‘What the heck was that thing?’ I look up at my stairs. ‘And what was it doing to me?’ I glance at the clock above the kitchen doorway. ‘1:30. Wow.’ I look out the window. ‘Where did the sun go?’ I suddenly jump when the TV turns on. I slowly turn to it. But when I do I freeze.

“Mama mama mama! You can’t get me!” A little girl runs around a backyard while a older woman chases her.

“Mom?…” I stare at it. ‘Why did the TV turn on? And why did it start playing old home videos?’

“Come back here you little monster!” Izzy’s mom laughs as she catches little Izzy. She sits her in her lap. She turns to the look at Izzy. “Do you miss me?” She smiles.

“Yeah do you?” Little Izzy looks at Izzy as well. “You know you do..”

Both of them start to laugh and repeat, “You know we’re dead…”

Tears start to roll down my face. ‘What the hell is going on?’ I wipe my tears. “Stop!” I clover my ears.

They get louder and louder.

I scream. “STOP!”

Cole jumps up. He looks at her. “Izzy!”

I shake my head as I bury my head in his chest. “T-they keep talking…”

Cole looks around. “Who?”

I look up at the TV. “Them….” The TV was blank. “But…but…” I look around for the remote. “It was playing…playing old…” I find the remote next to the love seat. “old home videos..” I turn the TV on but to my surprise it was just static. “But…” I press the DVD button. “It was on…” I look at Cole. “IT WAS PLAYING!” tears rolled down my cheeks. “It was…” I turn the TV off as I throw the remote at the sofa. “No..” I sit down as I rub my head. ‘I felt like I was losing my mind. What is happening today?’

Cole sits next to me. “Hey..” He holds me. “Today’s been crazy..” He pulls my face to face his. “Don’t beat yourself up over it.” He smiles.

I suck it up. “Yeah…” I wipe my tears. “Thank you..” I smile. ‘He was right. Today was crazy but I don’t need to freak out about it. I need to figure out what was happening so crying over it was not the answer!’

Suddenly, the TV turned on. We both froze as we looked at it.

I turn quickly to Cole. “Cole…” I say scared.

“Yes..?” He said swallowing hard.

The TV started to play a birthday party.

I look closer and my eyes widen. I look at Cole. ‘It was his birthday.’

“Happy birthday to you! Happy birthday to you! Happy birthday to Coleee!” All the people all sing to a little Cole.

Cole stared in shocked.

I look back at the TV. “Cole…is that-”

“Dad…” Tears ran down his face.

“Daddy!” Little Cole smiled big as he saw his father walk to him.

“Hey little man!” Cole’s dad laughed as he held him.

‘Cole must have been two.’ I swallow hard. “Hey…” I turn to Cole but to my surprise he wasn’t there. “Cole?” I suddenly jump when a gun shot is fired. I go to the ground as I cover my head. When it was over I slowly stand as I look around. Max was gone but Cole stood in front of the TV. “Cole..” I go to him but stop when I see a gun pointed at the TV. ‘He shot it?’ My eyes widen. “Cole! Why did you-” He suddenly points it towards me.

Cole’s eyes were puffy. Tears ran down his face. He looked scared as he pointed the gun at me.

“Cole…listen..” I try to calm him down. ‘Where did he get the gun? Why did he shoot the TV? Maybe seeing his dad set something off? Or was it something else?’ I thought to myself. ‘Please snap out of it!’ I look closer at him and when I did his eyes were solid black. I knew right then that was not Cole. ‘Come on! You need to help him snap out of it! Or something!’

I felt tears run down my face. I wanted to yell at him to snap out of it but every time I tried to speak nothing would come out. I closed my eyes knowing that he was probably going to kill me. I wasn’t fast enough to get out of the way. I suddenly heard two shots go off. I quickly felt both of them go in my stomach. I fell to the ground as blood fell on the ground. ‘My blood…’ I look down to my stomach and see blood. I look up at Cole. “W-why?” I cough up some blood. He didn’t say anything but point the gun to my forehead. I closed my eyes. ‘I’m sorry I couldn’t save you…’ I soon felt the bullet go in…

After Cole shooting me I felt free. Well to me it felt free. I only saw black around me. I saw a bright white light. I started to head towards it. I went closer to it but I stopped when I heard a voice call for me.

“IZZY! NO!”

I look down to a light emerging. I see Cole holding my body. He cried as he held me close to him. I looked closer to see his eyes were normal.

“Izzy! I’m so sorry! I love you! Please come back!” He said as he sobbed.

I looked back up at the light but it was gone. It wasn’t my time. I close my eyes as I feel myself falling. I quickly jump up. I suddenly realize I was in my living room. ‘I was back..’ I look back at Cole. He looked at me surprised. ‘I didn’t care about anything but that I was alive!’ I run to the little mirror, hanging next to the kitchen doorway. I look at my forehead. ‘Nothing…’ I lift my shirt to see nothing but blood. ‘No bullet holes?’ I look at Cole. He stood with blood all over him. I rush to him. I hold him tight. “I missed you!” I said with tears forming. Suddenly, Cole pushed me away. I look at him.

“You can’t me near me…I..I could hurt you..” He looked at the ground. “Again…I didn’t want to hurt you..I couldn’t…” He shakes his head. “I love you to much to do that again! I’m sorry but…but I can’t stay here..” He started for the front door but I quickly run in front of him.

“I know that! But I’m more likely to be killed without you here” I look up at him.

He turns around. He shakes his head as he looks at me as he turns his head to the side. “How?..” He turns to face me. “How can I forgive myself for killing you?” He sighs. “For killing you…I HATE MYSELF!”

I hug him as I look up at him. “Don’t you see? I’m not dead. I’m alive. And I know you…and that wasn’t you..”

He sighs.

“Remember when we were kids and you accidentally fell on me and broke my leg?” I say smiling.

“Yes..” He says in a low voice.

“Well…you got so mad at yourself that you jumped off your roof? So you could too have a broken leg?” I smile as I remember.

He starts to smile. “So you want me to shoot myself?”

“No! I’m not saying that!” I punch his arm. “I’m trying to mean that I know you didn’t mean it…” I smile softly at him.

He sighs. “Still…”

“Nope!” I shake my head. “I’m not hearing it!” I go to my stairs. “I’m going to take a shower. You better be here when I get back!” I go to head upstairs but Cole stops me by asking,

“Izzy…”

I look at him.

“H-how are you alive?” He looks at me worried.

I stare at the ground. “I don’t really know…” I sigh. ‘How am I really alive?’ I look at him. “I just don’t know..” I continue upstairs.

Cole stands there watching me. he looks over at the TV. “Idiot..” He hits his head.
