Chapter 7: Nightmares
Previous ChapterNext ChapterIt was late at night, about 11 to be exact. You decided to be stupid and play some Dead Space, without the lights on as well. The other thing is is that you were playing on Hard mode, in which ammo was scarce and enemies did more damage to you. You were back on the Ishimura, in which you didn't like it at all, because it was dark, scary, and too quiet.
"Boo!" Rainbow snuck up behind you, and made you jump and shout in fright. Rainbow was laughing hard, and you were having chest pains.
"Don't do that! I was playing Dead Space!" You were panting because she scared you good.
"That's why I did it!" She laughed, you crossed your arms. You then turn off your game and get into bed.
"Oh come on! Don't be like that." You gave her the silent treatment. She probably just scared you so much that you weren't even going to touch Dead Space for a long time.
"Okay, I'm sorry for scaring you." You still don't say anything, because you were already asleep. You didn't snore, so it would be really easy to mistake you for being awake.
"Fine! Be that way, to figure I was going to give you something." You couldn't deny a present, but you were asleep and you had no choice.
You wake up in the morning feeling very stressed and tired, last night you had a nightmare about being inside of the Sprawl, from Dead Space 2. You woke up with a hard gasp, you remember the final boss was Rainbow instead of Nicole. You laugh quietly to yourself and get ready for today. You regret playing Dead Space so late at night with the lights off, because now you thought you were hallucinating. There was writings on the wall, but as you got closer they disappeared. You had to go to school today, and you couldn't wait to get to Psychology.
"Twilight I need help. I think I really do have paranoia and dementia this time." You shudder and shake as you finish your plead for help. She sits you down on the one armed couch and you take a deep breath.
"So tell me, how long has this been happening?" You describe the events of last night, and your nightmare you had while sleeping.
"You know Rainbow? Oh, no wonder you are in the condition you are in now." She wrote that down in her notebook.
"All you need to do is stay away from those survival horrors for a while. You should be fine by then." You thank her for the advice. Class was just about over, and you were heading towards your last class of the day. You get on your clothes and line up on the track outside. Coach Soarin' then came out, with a clipboard and papers.
"Alright boys, today we will be weight testing. You'll be maxing out on the Bench Press. I expect most of you to at least lift half your body weight." He announced, Coach Spitfire was also out here, you stayed to hear what she had to say.
"Alright girls, you'll be doing your mile time. I expect you to be on your fastest." The girls then whined and lined up on the track. You go towards the weight room, and do some warm up lifting before you get started. You only weighed in at about 190 lbs. so you have to lift at least 95, but you could easily lift 125. Blueblood messed you up on your last attempt, and he laughed in your face. Coach Soarin' counted your mess up and it said you only weighed 100 lbs.
"Watcha gonna do 'bout that rookie?" He gets up in your face. You walk away and go and get dressed back into your other clothes. Today you felt like a badass, so you wore fingerless black leather gloves, you also had on your aviators too.
"Hey new kid, lemme show you something. I'm sorry about earlier." You turn around and he lands a punch into your gut. You were on the ground and cough, he knocked the wind out of you. You got back up and crack your knuckles, you personally thought fighting was the way to solve things like men. You used words whenever you got in an argument with a woman. You two were out on the football field, and the girls already went in so nobody was around to see you.
"What did I ever do to you Blueboy?" You wipe spit from your mouth, and you put up your sunglasses.
You two were about to throw down, you noticed the trophies and saw that Blueblood was captain of the MMA team here. Every style of fighting had its weakness, and CQC was one of the ones that was hard to counter. He tries to punch you, but you dodge and grab his arm. you put his arm behind his back and you press up. You then collapsed his knee and you pinned him on the ground.
"Leave me alone." You got up from him.
You then turn his back to him and walk off the football field. He then kicked you in that place you shouldn't be kicked. You fall to the ground moaning in pain. You got up slowly and throw an uppercut to his chin. You them try to limp back to your dorm room, and you manage to get away from Blueblood. You slouch back on your sofa, and you open a bottle of Snapple, it really was one of the best things on Earth, but not the best. You looked at the damages Blueblood done to you, there was only a bruise on your stomach and a scratch under your eye.
"Blueblood, you are the first one to actually draw blood that came from me. I have to admit you're good." You chuckle, and you take a little nap because fighting wore you out.
You wake up a little later by a knock coming from your door. You opened it up and saw a new girl, she had blue eyes and cobalt blue hair. She looked a little younger than the headmistress herself.
"Are you the one who beat up my nephew?" Uh oh, he told on your ass.
"I can explain that..." You rub the back of your head.
"Well, I have a lot of time so please do so, if you would." She sat down on your couch, and you sat down on your computer chair.
"Well, it all started last night..." A little explanation later, she finally understood the situation.
"So there are two sides to this story? I guess both of you will have to be punished. Since you were acting in self defense, you will be in detention with me tomorrow. Blueblood is going to be in a lot more trouble. We have a strict no bullying rule here at this school." She explained. You just got detention, one of the most boring places to be.
"Thanks for the visit umm..."
"Luna, Headmistress Luna. It's nice to meet you, Annabelle's son." She winked at you, and you turned around because you were blushing.
Then, a Rainbow Dash appeared!
She tapped you on your shoulder and held a game in her hand. You wonder why she had it, and why she was here, she scared the shit out of you last night.
"Look, I know what I did last night wasn't the best thing to do. So to make up for it I'm giving you this." She gave you a controller, it was a light cyan blue and had rainbows on it. It was none of that stickers shit, it was done by a real paint job, and it was in pretty good condition too.
"Thanks Rainbow. I'll make sure to use it." You smile.
"Friends?" She sticks out her hand.
"When were we not friends?" You chuckle, she looks to the side.
"You didn't talk to me when I tried to apologize, I thought I really hurt your feelings." You hug her, in which your face was blushing profusely.
"Rainbow, I wasn't giving you the silent treatment, I really fell asleep. No joke." She looked up at you and giggled. You look at your newly obtained controller, it looked pretty worn in, and perfect because you don't like a stiff controller that's all new and hard to play with. The paint job looked like it was done by a professional, and it didn't have any worn down areas. Rainbow kept it in a pretty good condition.
"Thanks for the present." You tell her, and she smirked.
"Consider it an early Christmas present." She then walked out of your room, and you were left alone. You turn on your console and start to play Resident Evil. It wasn't much of a survival horror, more of like an adventure action, with zombies.
"Ha, dementia. Take that." You start to play, and it got pretty fun until Rainbow showed up right next to you.
You look over to her, but this wasn't the real Rainbow that you know, this is the corrupted Rainbow. The Rainbow that wanted you dead.
