HERE! ENJOY!
Lita awoke to the sound of thunder and the flash of lightning. She sighed and ran a finger through her red locks and looked at the watch on her wrist. Her eyes wandered around their 3-room apartment. With the kitchen right in front of her and the bathroom to her right the front door was to her left. Looking next to her she saw her husband. With his long black locks trailing down his shoulder he looked like an angel. Running her fingers up his chest and tracing the outline of his jaw she smiled ear to ear. Kissing his arm she laid her head on his shoulder and nodded off to sleep once again.
"This place is ours now you are our prisoners!" A loud voice boomed inside her dreams. Clamping her eyes shut she whimpered.
"Lita wake up." A voice that sounded like her husband said.
"Matt?" Lita sat up looking at him.
"WAKE UP!" Her husband's voice screamed at her. She looked beside her confused and terrified to find him still asleep. Shaking him gently she panicked when he didn't open his eyes. A stricken look of fear crossed her face.
"C'mon Matt." She whispered shaking him again she reached to check his pulse and let out a horrified scream when she didn't feel anything. There was silence and she sat back on her hunches. Her husband. He was dead. She stood from the bed and walked to the bathroom shakily. It had to be a dream a terrible dream.
Looking up into the bathroom mirror she screeched again. There in front of her was her own reflection except she was dressed in a black body suit. She was in a bright pink bubble padded room. The room was like a giant sphere. The ceiling towered over her and she felt like she was in a huge ball of fluff. There was a white mist rolling through the room causing her to jump at the dampness and the peace of the room. A rush of pain clouded her head and she gripped an invisible piece of furniture in front of her.
When she opened her eyes she whimpered and scanned her surroundings. She was back in her apartment and it was the sink that she was gripping. Her breathing became labored and voices echoed through her mind. A heavy knock on the door sounded and she didn't have the strength to move and answer it. There was yelling and she couldn't identify where it was coming from. There was a darkness threatening to claim her while she stumbled.
"Mrs. Hardy are you alright?" A thin man in a pale blue police uniform asked.
"No." She barely got out when she colliding with the floor the darkness winding around her. She cried out when she landed on a cold hard surface.
"LITA!" Matt yelled out.
"Matt?" Lita woke up. She tried to sit up when she found herself to be restrained by wires.
"LI." Matt rushed to her and unhooked her from the giant machines.
"You're awake." He said kissing her on her lips.
"Where the hell was I?" She asked.
"In the 21st century." He explained.
"What? Why?" She asked him.
"The Keys." Matt said. "We were in their fantasy world."
"So their fantasy is to go home?" Lita asked.
"With their protectors yes. But there's one problem with this dream world. The longer they stay the more the less time they have to live." Matt explained. "This place is designed to trap its victims in their fantasy land giving them all they desire and at the same time sucking the life out of their very bodies"
"SO then get them out!" Lita said hurriedly.
"I can't you were easy to get out because you weren't well adjusted to the dream. The main dream is connected to the hardest person to get out. Once that person is awake the program will fail and this prison we're in will malfunction and we'll be released. "
"How do you know so much about this?" Lita asked.
"Well Lita some of us like to read up about promising technology that we haven't yet confiscated." Matt smiled. Lita stuck her tongue out at him and then a hideous thought struck her bringing the red head back down to the problem at hand.
"Oh no." Lita whispered under her breath. Her gaze fell upon the youngest Key the only one with a smile on her face as she slept.
KEENZ! Ish your turn!
