A/N: i think, to be fair to everyone who takes Sarah's side and can imagine her feelings during her adventure, and especially its surreal beginning, i will include this poem. iam, though i hardly admit it, a sarah-sympathizer, as i have been in her situation, as many of you have. maybe not literally (we wish!) but on some level, we have all been there - meddling in magic, saying words that have an aftertaste, using the powers we id not know we had and having to deal with the sometimes frightening consequences. nightmarish, actually!

Chapter II:

Dreamcatcher

The rain against my window,

The lightning bursting in,

And something in the twilight;

About to begin

The dark side of the crystal,

The opposite of noon,

The nighttime and its shadow,

The winter coming soon…

The sense of expectation;

Of something that's not right,

Of mist and ice around you,

Of voices in the night…

Reflections in your mirror, -

So twisted and reversed….

Aware of what's within you,

In sticky fear immersed…

The wrenching sense of falling,

Of danger closing in,

And running from the nightmare

About to begin.
