Huey and Jazmine lay in bed together, in each other's arms. But Jazmine started shifting uncomfortably in her sleep. Her eyes winced and she groaned in frustration. She rolled out of Huey's embrace and turned on her other side, sighing in horror. Her head swayed from side to side, trying to rid herself of the nightmare taking over her.
"You can't escape me," whispered a voice. Jazmine was running through the midst, not knowing where she was going nor what or who she would meet. She was just running. "You belong to me," the voice whispered a little louder.
"Get away from me!" Jazmine screamed. "What do you want from me!" She ran even faster. Out of the corner of her eye she saw a manly shape running alongside her. She couldn't outrun him. Every time she sped up, he would speed up. She had had enough of this. She stopped in her tracks and lunged out at the figure, but the man was too quick. He jumped out of the way and blocked her attacks. She kicked and jabbed but she couldn't get a hit on him. The man chuckled.
"Hehe. Such fire and strength," he grabbed her arm and held her in place. "Such great qualities for an apprentice." He flung her arm in a circle as did her body following and she crashed to the ground, earning a grunt from Jazmine. She laid there on the ground gasping and trembling. Apprentice? What is going on? Jazmine thought.
"Who are you?" she asked fearfully. The figure turned around and looked at her on the ground.
"I guess you could refer to me as…The White Shadow," he stated calmly. Jazmine stood up in shock. No it couldn't be true.
"But…Huey stopped…"
"Yes, Huey stopped believing in me a long time ago," he interrupted. "But that doesn't mean that I never existed." Jazmine was dumbfounded. How could this be?
"No! You are just a pigment of my imagination. And you always were!"
"That's where you're wrong Ms. Dubois," Shadow said. He dissolved into an airy form and became invisible. "I was real, and still am." Jazmine looked around frantically, trying to find out where his voice was coming from. "The reason why Huey stopped believing in me was because I decided that he was too weak for my taste," he said, his voice surrounding Jazmine. "So I stopped bothering him."
"Why have you come back?" Jazmine asked. "Leave me and Huey alone!"
"Oh, but it is not Huey I'm after," he stated. He turned back into his human form and walked up behind her and bent down to her ear. "I'm here for you." Jazmine immediately swung behind her only to be blocked again. She gave a whole roundabout of moves but was unsuccessful. He pinned her down on the ground. "Huey had nothing to offer me, but YOU Jazmine," he said calmly. Jazmine struggled under his grip. She pulled and pushed and shoved but she couldn't shake him. "You have traits that no other pupil has, and that is Hate," Jazmine stopped struggling. "Hate, Anger, and Hurt. All the things that will lead you to become a powerful apprentice to me." He loosened his grip and got off of her. Jazmine stood up quickly.
"You are sick! I will never work for you! Huey is stronger than you and I would never betray him and he would never betray me," She yelled.
"Oh Jazmine Jazmine Jazmine," Shadow sighed. "Sweet little naïve Jazmine. Didn't you say the same thing about your father?" Jazmine all of a sudden began seeing images of her father when she was a little girl. Him pushing her on a swing, giving her piggy back rides, and getting her ice cream. "About Darell?" Jazmine then saw images of Darell dancing with her, helping her with her steps, them kidding around at practice, and him comforting her during harsh criticisms. Jazmine's eyes watered up at these images. She crouched down and sobbed with her face in her hands. "Yes, that's what I thought Jazmine. They hurt you," The images turned to Tom hitting Jazmine in the face. "Deceived you," Then they turned to Tom hitting Sarah. "And took advantage of you." Last, they turned to Darell molesting her. "You really think Huey won't do the same. He doesn't want you, he doesn't need you. You are just as useless to him as you were when you two were 10." The images turned to Huey and Jazmine up on the hill with the tree. Huey had just told Jazmine that he had no friends. He trusted absolutely no one and not even her. He left her on that hill crying and shouting.
Jazmine's eyes flared up. She looked up from her hands and stood up. "SHUT UP!" she shouted as she jumped out at him. She tackled him and pummeled his face. Only to find that he had turned into his air shape again. He stood behind her and chuckled again.
"Just as I said. Full of hate," Shadow said. Jazmine stayed crunched over gasping, looking at the ground. This couldn't be happening. He was lying. This was only a dream…that she couldn't wake up from. "You remember what I said. Once you've changed your mind, you know where to find me," he said walking away. "Because I'm not that far away as you might think." Jazmine turned around to say something but he was gone. She sat there crunched over, sobbing and gasping. She wanted to kill him for what he said. She was so full of anger she didn't know what to do with herself. Her gasping became shorter and shorter, until she let out the loudest and most frightening scream.
She woke up with a start, to see herself on the complete other side of the bed, facing towards the door. She was starting to sweat and was gasping heavily. She looked at the clock that said 5:20 am. Only 10 more minutes until the clock rang. She looked over to the other side of the bed to see Huey sleeping peacefully. She snuggled back to his side of the bed and laid next to him, wrapping her arms around his side and back, and laid her head on his shoulder. She stared at his rising and falling, muscular chest and stomach, and into his closed brown eyes. No, it wasn't true. He was lying. Nothing can change her mind about Huey, her love of her life, her savior, her mentor, her everything. She smiled and relaxed against his smooth skin. Huey subconsciously wrapped his arms around her too, bringing her close to him. Jazmine smiled and just laid there with him for another 7 minutes.
It was a dream, and nothing more, she thought.
However, a gust of midst flew by the draped windows and smirked at her, and flew away.
Oooooooo scary. Will Jazmine give in to The White Shadow's evil plans? Keep reading!
