Chapter 2

Clarice tried to open her eyes but the light was too bright. "Where am I?" there was no answer. "Hallo" still nothing but her own voice. It forced her to open her eyes. Clarice was place that wasn't a room, there where no walls or any sky, it was simply white.

Clarice turned around, finding it the same where ever she looked. Panic began to take control of her. "Hallo!!!!" this time she was greeted by a voice, bearing old age, yet Clarice would swear that it sounded like her dad.

"Hello Clarice and welcome." Clarice found strange comfort in the voice; it took away her fear and her panic. "Where am I?" "Where do you think Clarice?" "I don't know, all I remember is that I was driving my car, when." The sudden realization of what had happen hit her. "I'm not dead am I?" the voice was this accompanied with a figure, bearing white clothes. "That depends Clarice, do you want to be dead?" the question surprised Clarice. "No, At least I don't think so." "Hmm I didn't think so." "So where am I then?" "You Clarice is at a crossroad. You simply has to decided what is worth living for and what is worth dying for." "That's not easy" the man was now in front of her, she couldn't see his features, it was like he was faceless and yet not. "But Clarice you have already made that choice." "I have?" "Tell me Clarice where you happy?" "With what, my life and how it turned out?" "With the choices you made." Clarice suddenly hear her own voice in distance speaking her thoughts of how things might have changed if she had gone with Dr. Lecter. Clarice was embarrassed. "So Clarice, would you be happier with a madman?" "He's not" Clarice stopped, what was the point of arguing it. "What do you say we find out?" "How?" "Your going to dream Clarice, this is just one possibility of how you might meet him." "How have you figured that out?" "Hmm, now that would be telling wouldn't it?" "I guess. So how long will the dream last?" "Until you have found your answers." "Will I come back here?" but the man and the voice was gone.

A distant echo was the only answer.

Dream Clarice, Dream, Dream.
