A beautiful field carpeted by flowers has spread out and all around. Petals swaying in the wind, gliding through air. But...I've noticed something peculiar. White orbs of light were also floating along with these. I felt its warmth as it glides through my skin. It seems that I'm the only one around here. Where is everybody? Haylie? Gail? Taylor? Dawn?

Where are you?

Hallie...

What? Who's there?

You and your sister will know...

What are you talking about? Who are you?

Look around you. Do you know where you are?

No...I don't. Who are you? Where am I? Please, show yourself!

I am afraid I cannot do that. I have been separated from the one I truly love and I am searching for him. But I'm afraid I cannot show myself to you.

Why not? Just tell me who you are!

I cannot do that. But...I will tell you where you are.

...Alright.

You are in the field of souls. Souls dwell here, in search of eternal peace. I dwell here, trying to find the one I truly love. Your sister...might be here somewhere.

What?!? Haylie's here? Where? Tell me where my sister is!

No, I could not. You must find her yourself, as I try to find him...

What? No, please! Help me!

I'm sorry...but I cannot.

NO! PLEASE HELP ME! TELL ME WHERE SHE IS!

NOOOOOOOO!!!!!!!

"Hallie, Hallie wake up!"

I felt someone shaking me violently. I woke up right away & saw my friends leaning over me, faces white with terror.

"Wha...What?"

"You were having a bad dream!" said Gail, her voice trembling.

"We panicked so much! You were flailing all around your bed." Dawn said, looking aghast.

I just looked at them. But I've noticed someone's missing.

"Where's Haylie?" I said, hoarse-voiced.

I've noticed that their eyes widened. I felt that there's something completely wrong.

"Where is she?"

"Umm...we-well, umm, she kinda...umm, she..." Gail stuttered.

"She's missing." Taylor said. My eyes widened after she said that.

"What?!?"

Suddenly, I remembered that she told me she was going downstairs to get a glass of water. But she never came back. That means that she-

"Snuck out!"

"Exactly." Taylor said, not even daunted by the fact that my sister is missing.

"You say that it's like nothing to you!" I can't believe her! How can she be calm in a time like this?

"C'mon, we gotta find her!"

"And where do you suppose we should start?" Dawn asked.

"I don't know! Anywhere!" I replied, my voice in a high tone. I rushed to the closet and grabbed random clothes that I'll wear. I don't care about how I would look; what's important is the safety of my sister!

"Let's go now!" I said, just finished lacing up my shoes.

"Oh come on! Wait for a frickin' minute! I haven't took off my nightdress yet!" Dawn said, looking reluctant.

"Dammit! I'll rip it off you if you don't hurry!" I was shaking in anger. Dawn is the most inconsiderate person I have ever met! For God's sake, someone is missing here, if you haven't noticed! Oh, I hope Haylie's okay...

"Does this shirt make me look fat?" Gail asked. What the hell?

"No, it doesn't! Please, let's go!" Okay, it's official. Gail is the successor of Dawn for being the most inconsiderate person I have ever met. I dragged Gail and Dawn by the hand, followed by Taylor and out through the door. We jumped in Dawn's car and I told her to step on it. I can't think of any place she would go.

"Where the hell would she go at this time?!?" I said. Then, I looked at Dawn, whom I've noticed that she was wearing her "new" boots.

"Dawn, I just have to ask. Is it completely necessary for you to wear that? You're not going to a frickin' party!"

"Why, you like?" she said. Oh, please.

"No! Oh, just drive!" I said, worry flooding my mind. Where could she be?

After what seemed like half an hour, we still didn't find Haylie. I looked at my watch. It was quarter to three in the morning. Damn!

"I have a suggestion on where she might be." Taylor spoke calmly again. I turned at her direction.

"She might be there again." She said, still in that same tone.

"Where?" I asked.

"In Frank's house." And there she said it. It hit me like a big red four-wheeler truck. With all this panic, it never crossed my mind, not even once. How could I be so stupid? Dawn drove on to Frank's house. But upon arriving there, I felt a strange feeling. Images flahed right before my eyes, then...I saw myself in that same field I saw in my dream. But I saw someone standing over there. It was-

"Haylie!"

There she was, walking outside. But her movements were strange. Her movements were lethargic and she looks like she was possessed. But that's not what shocked me. She was following a silvery-white orb...the very same things in that field. And that voice...what did it call that field? 'The Field of Souls'?

I'm racking my brains out now. I opened the door and ran after her. I saw her go into the backyard of the house. I can hear the others following me. When I reached the backyard, I saw Haylie lying on the ground, her bag lying beside her. The white orb had disappeared from sight. I rushed towards her. My heart was beating madly and my stomach feels like it was going to fall out my butt. I tried to wake her up.

"Haylie, open your eyes! Please!"

I checked her pulse. Thank God, she's fine. But she's still out cold.

"What happened? Is she alright?" I heard Dawn ask. I turned at her direction. Her face was chalk-white and the tone in her voice seemed to be distressed. She was concerned after all.

"Nothing. She's just unconscious."

Then, I tried to wake her up again.

"Open your eyes!"

Finally, she did. I was so glad she was okay that I pulled her into a hug, tears rushing down from my eyes like a faucet.

"Okay, okay. I'm fine now. Please stop crying.

Just I was going to open my mouth to ask why was she here, Dawn beat me to it.

"I...I..." She was speechless. Taylor also beat me into the same question I wanted to ask her.

"You were trying to find more answers. Weren't you?"

None to my surprise, she nodded. A conversation transpired from us. Haylie kept asking how she got here in the backyard.

"Well, we should be the ones asking you that." I said.

"What are you talking about?" she said, looking perplexed. Gail replied at her question, but she still keeps insisting something.

" Okay, where exactly did you find me? Upstairs, in Frank's room or here?"

I'm getting a bit irritated. I answered, " How many times do we have to tell you, Haylie?

Right here, in the backyard. Why are you saying that you were in Frank's bedroom, when clearly, you are right here?"

I was surprised at her answer.

"Because I was." What? What are you talking about? We saw you! You were right here! Why are you telling us that your were upstairs?

What I'm asking has finally been answered. She told us about what she saw. But what was horrifying about it was...it was exactly the same that I saw. The Field of Souls.

"Hallie, Hallie, What's wrong?"

I felt Haylie shaking me. I turned my eyes on her. The others were panicking as well.

"Did you say that you found yourself in a field of flowers & white orbs were flying around?"

"Yes?"

I whispered to her the words I want to say.

"I saw that as well, Haylie, I saw that as well! If you're wondering what it is, it's called the Field of Souls. Those flying white orbs are souls!"
