A man was standing infront of a girl. The girl looked around and saw other three surrounding her. One of them stepped forward and the girl cried. She glanced around at the night sky where the moon was waning. Laughter was heard from the surroundings. The four men were laughing. One of them came forward and grabbed her arm. She screamed.
The girl woke up with a jerk. Tears flowing from her eyes. She started crying after seeing such a scaring nightmare.
" Mumma!" She cried.
Soon enough a woman entered the room and ran to her daughter.
" Alexia! Alexia, dear don't worry. It's just a nightmare. Nothing else. Calm down dear. Calm down." The woman said rubbing back of her daughter.
" Mumma it's not just a nightmare. You know it is not. Please." The girl cried while begging.
" Dear it's nothing. It's your nightmare disorder. You know what doctor said. Calm down and sleep." The woman said and the girl lied down.
She wiped her eyes and laid back on her bed.
The woman then left the room.
Alexia turned to other side and cried for the whole night.
" Why is nobody understanding? They are not just simple nightmares. They are some kind of future. Most of the times they are true." Alexia said to herself.
She tried to close her eyes but those four men came back.
" No!" Alexia whispered and sat up.
" I can't sleep." She said and went to the window. Glancing out she saw that moon was complete.
" It's a full moon night." She said. Her eyes widened.
" The waning moon. It was like after two days the full moon." Alexia though out loud.
Fear engulfed in her eyes.
" No! No!" She tried to shake off the feeling.
She returned to her bed and picked her phone.
It showed the time of 3:35 a.m. Alexia glanced at her phone screen and decided to watch something. She searched a show Merlin and opened it.
Watching the show she realised that she was quite similar to Morgana. But she decided to push the feeling back. She won't betray anyone like that. She sighed when she saw Arthur dying.
" Now they are dead. I wish I could change it." Alexia said staring at ceiling. She took bath and decided to prepare for her high school.
Alexia was a beautiful girl of seventeen. She was kind and always had her own world of fantasy. According to her everything was possible. This made people question her sanity sometimes. But she always ignored them. Being highly religious was another aspect of her. She never lost faith in God. According to her he was everywhere and always helped her. Her father was an alcoholic. Who always lost himself when highly drunk. She tried her best to stay away from him. Her nightmares were another identity for her. Most of them would come true but her parents asked doctor, actually a psychologist. Another question on her sanity. According to the doctor she was suffering from nightmare disorder. Alexia tried to explain that sometimes her nightmares came true but they shrugged it saying it's teen effects of watching series and other fantasies.
Alexia was quite upset. This led to lack of friends in her life. There was just one friend, Emile. She was a nice girl but sometimes she too thought Alexia to be unbearable. Alexia was quite lonely in her world. That was the main cause of her imaginary fantasy world. A world where she can do anything. A world of magic. And most important, a world where she was loved.
Alexia turned to look at herself before going down. She picked her things for school and went down.
" Good morning mother, good morning father." Alexia said.
Both just nodded in acknowledgement and returned to there phones.
" Alexia your father and I decided that you can go on the trip organised by your college. Enjoy your field trip." Her mother said.
Alexia's groaned internally but nodded regardless.
She ate her breakfast and went out to reach her school.
Reaching there she saw Emile talking to someone. Alexia smiled and moved towards her.
" Good morning Emile." Alexia said.
" Oh Alexia. Just leave for few moments. I have to deal with this idiot." Emile said dismissing her and dragged the boy with her.
Alexia heaved a sigh.
" Emile..." She whispered and went to attend her lecture. That was what she didn't like. Emile sometimes even forgets that Alexia is her friend.
After the day passed, Alexia returned home. She started to pack her things for the next morning for field trip.
They were supposed to leave tomorrow and come back after a week. It was about history and ancient towns.
Glastonbury tor. It was the place where they were planning to go.
Next morning Alexia got ready to leave at 5 a.m.
As they reached the place, it was nearly evening.
" It's amazing!" Alexia whispered.
" Yeah it is." Emile said smiling.
" Listen I am going to Anna, I will meet you later." Emile said and rushed towards another girl. Alexia nodded at the retreating figure of her friend.
Finally the night arrived.
Alexia smiled looking around where her classmates were sitting around a campfire enjoying. They were smiling and laughing camping out.
Alexia just sipped her coffee looking around. Emile was sitting with Jake, her boyfriend laughing and hugging his arm. Alexia smiled at her friend and got up to leave for her camp.
As she was returning, she bumped into someone. Looking up, she found it was Mark, a bully and senior.
" Watch where you are going girl." Mark growled.
Alexia nodded.
" I am sorry." She said looking down.
" That you should be." He snapped.
" Oh Mark come on! Don't you think she is a beauty. You can't let her go like that." Someone from behind said.
Alexia jerked her head up.
" It's true." Mark said eyeing her. Alexia found herself hard to breathe. "Comeon now just give me a kiss and leave." He said.
Alexia stared at him shocked.
" I said I am sorry." Alexia said.
" The hell with your sorry. Just kiss me and leave." Mark said.
Alexia shook her head and started moving forward.
Mark grabbed her arm.
" You should be thankful that you are getting a chance to kiss me." Mark snarled.
He turned her around and leant to kiss her before Alexia raised her hand and slapped him hard.
" Shut up! You shall learn to respect others." Alexia said angrily and jerked her arm out. She then turned and left the place.
But unknown to her, Mark was giving her a hard look.
" You will regret it." He snarled and left.
Next day was spent enjoying the view and watching around. The next camp place was around a bit far from a huge lake. Alexia was amazed seeing it from above. Right now they were camping a bit far from the lake. At some high altitude.
As night was nearing, Alexis grew concious. This was the night she saw in her nightmare. She tried to dismiss the feeling but was not able to. She didn't even eat that night. It was around midnight when she heard someone outside. Alexia quickly got to her feet and glanced around seeing the other two girls asleep.
She moved out to see who was there.
" Who is there?" She asked.
But no reply.
She moved a bit forward when she saw a shadow. She quickly turned around only to be slapped. Before she could scream, a hand covered her mouth.
" You must repay what you did yesterday." Someone said in her ear. Alexia's eyes widened.
She tried to get free from the hard grip but was not able to.
" Mark take her somewhere else." Someone said from behind.
And soon Alexia was dragged away from the camp site with a hand on her mouth and hands tied.
Tears were flowing freely from her eyes as she was trying to get some help.
When satisfied with the distance, the man pushed Alexia towards the ground.
Alexia cried in pain and tried to stand up.
" What are you doing?" She screamed.
" You insulted me yesterday, and now you must repay. You refused to kiss me, now you see what I will do." Mark snarled.
Alexia was staring at him in shock.
" Please no!" She said and pushed him. She started running while the rest of the men followed her. She was crying and screaming for help. Suddenly, she tripped on a stone landing on her face.
She glanced back and to her horror, the men reached her. She stood up and Mark was standing in front of her. She glanced around and saw the other three surrounding her. Mark stepped forward and Alexia cried. She glanced at sky and saw the moon at same position as her dream. Her breathing became shallow while she heard the laughter of others. One of the rest of three came forward and grabbed her arm.
" Its going to be fun." He said.
" Please leave me." Alexia begged.
" You should have realised before slapping me." Mark said and came forward.
Alexia tried to free herself. But no use. Mark grabbed her should and pushed her towards a tree. Restraining her hand he looked at her.
" Now you will learn your place." He said and neared her.
Alexia turned her head away, her breathing shallower, her eyes filled with hot tears.
" Please leave me." Alexia begged.
" Oh how I wished this only. You begging me to leave you. But you know what? I won't. I can't do this. We all want to have some fun. Surely you can provide us." Mark said and moved to her neck. Alexia closed her eyes feeling disgusted.
He sucked her neck while Alexia was wriggling in his hold.
Suddenly she felt another hand holding her arm.
" You are truly delicious." Mark said and laughed.
When the other man grabbed her arm, Mark released her and his hand then moved to her chest.
Alexia squeezed her eyes tightly.
" Please no!" She said when she felt someone unbuttoning her shirt.
Mark continued to suck and bite her neck moving towards her chest.
Alexia was trying her best to free herself but she felt her sleeves getting teared when she felt another pair of lips on her arm.
Alexia cried and screamed for help while others laughed.
" It's just a beginning girl. We all want some fun. Please remain concious till then." Mark said and laughed.
Her body started to shake and fear engulfed her soul. Her concious was not supporting her. Her soul and body were feeling disgusted as she felt hands roaming on her stomach and chest. Suddenly she felt a pair of lips on hers. They were biting her lips harshly. Alexia was now just wishing one thing, death. She felt a hand now roaming on her trousers, tucking her belt. She jerked her eyes open and with all the power left in her, she pushed the two men holding her. She quickly ran from the place. The rest men following her. Hot tears flowing and loud screaming were just a small part of her sorrow. What she was wishing right now was just death. She reached a cliff and stopped there.
She glanced back and saw the four men standing few feet away from her.
" Alexia, come back now." Mark said with a smirk.
Alexia shook her head violently, her whole body shaking with fear.
" No! YOU ALL ARE MONSTERS! I WILL HAPPILY CHOOSE DEATH OVER YOU." she screamed in rage and turned to the cliff. And without a second thought, she jumped, accepting her death.
