"Now you must understand Mr. Smith, these children that live here, they're different from others"
James Smith, age 23, was taking his first shift at the CIGBH.
Which funnily enough, he had no clue what it stood for.
"Childs isolation ground for better help" No.
"Children's instrumental group of beginner hounds" Okay that one didn't even make sense.
"Chocolate in-" No, he was just getting hungry.
"Now your method of payment, how about £1000 pounds, a week"
James had only seen the job in the local newspaper a few days ago
He needed the money to pay for rent for his flat.
"You start work tonight, oh and Mr. Smith, find yourself a friend"
He glanced at every door he passed down the hallway; each had its own name
Zelda.
Tella.
Ace.
He stopped for a moment and heard a noise come from inside the door
the noise quieted down, James continued
Joshua.
Lacy and Locky.
"Hello?"
He heard a voice and James turned around in the direction of it
"Is anyone there, I had a nightmare"
The voice again, a girls voice
James walked back down the corridor stopping at each door
"Please"
The voice came from Ace's room
"Whose there?"
Asked a figure from under the bed covers
"My, my name's James, im the new security ga-"
"Sing"
"What?"
"I said sing, the old security grad, used to sing when I had nightmares"
She has nightmares
"What do you want me to sing" He asked coming towards the bed
"Sit down. What's your favourite song" James did as told
"Well I like-"
"Sing"
"I don't need no arms around me
And i don't need no drugs to calm me
I have seen the writing on the wall
Don't think i need anything at all
All in all it was all just bricks in the wall
All in all you were all just brick in the wall"
James paused, and noticed that Ace was asleep
He moved his arm away from her bed and tried to stand up
But a hand grabbed his sleeve and pulled him down
James fell asleep that night on the edge of Ace's bed
Little did he know that the next morning was going to be very hectic indeed.

I own all characters and this whole idea was mine (the power of dreams)
