Prologue: Crazy Girl

"In going from room to room in the dark I reached out blindly to save my face, But, neglected, however lightly, to lace My fingers and close my arms in an arc. A slim door got in past my guard, And hit me a blow in the head so hard I had my native simile jarred. So people and things don't pair any more With what they used to pair with before"

-The Door in the Dark -Robert Frost.

April Fifth, 2006

"Miss Crater?" She looked up from her drawing and saw Mrs. DaVoe, the woman had blonde hair and stood about five foot four, she wore a white doctor coat over a grey skirt and white blouse, her blue eyes looked back at Bailee.

"Miss Carter, tell me about the day your parents died?" she asked, the girl blinked "Parents?"

"Yes, Miss Carter."

Bailee cocked her head to the side as if trying to figure out what she was talking about "I see things" she said finally, Mrs. DaVoe took her glasses off and folded them placing them on her clip board.

"What things?"

"There is.. There is a man, he wears a top hat with a white bird feather on the side, he also wears a black trench coat, he leans on a cane and gives me this... this smile."

She was writing down what all Bailee was saying "And?"

"A woman, she wears a pink gown and floats in a bubble, she wears a crown and tells me I need to hurry before time runs out."

"Then there is two queens in a castle divided by hearts and spade's, they sit on throne's and the ball room they are in is filled with people, something is attacking their castle but, the dream never finishes.

"A boy battles a captain of a ship as the ship get rocked back and forth very quick, it ends with it sinking.

"And finally there is a man, he is king of something, his wife is deathly sick and he speaks to his two sons quietly, one is very muscular and the other is .., a trickster I am guessing?"

She wrote all of this down then looked back up at the girl "So, we are talking of Alice in Wonderland, Peter Pan, Wizard of Oz and Thor and Loki?"

She sat up and looked at her "I am telling you the truth, these-these dreams you call them are real" Bailee said as DaVoe stood up and patted her head before smiling.

"I know they are Miss. Crater, but.. Some dreams feel real while other dreams are like you are floating on air."

Bailee watched her walk out the door and then stood up "I'm not crazy! These dreams are real and if I don't help them soon, the land of Zeramoon will be at a end!" she shouted as two of the guards came in and grabbed her arms.

She tried to pull away "No, you don't understand, they need me! They need me!" she shouted as they took her out of the room and to her cell at the Mental Hospital, they locked it and she looked out the bars of the door.

Bailee wrapped her hands around the bars and looked at the guards "Your just going to let them die" she said, one whacked his hand on the door and she jumped back.

Bailee walked to her bed and grabbed the doll she made from the bed, it was like that Monster High stuff, the daughter of Dracula.

The white walls she draws on, it had pictures of the people from the dreams, she looked at the one she had drawn of the woman in the pink gown and cocked her head to the side;

"Why must you torture me this way?" she asked the wall as she drifted off to sleep.

He listened to the screams from the room beside his and leaned his head back on the wall behind him from where he sat on the floor.

As the yells quieted down he sighed and looked up at the ceiling "For the day is done... let's have some fun" he mumbled as he heard his father in his head.

Kenton stood up and walked to the cell door and then leaned on it, he looked across the cell to front of his to see a guard swing his hand back on the door of the girls door.

He watched small hands unwrap from the bars and didn't see anything else.

He knew of her, Bailee Crater, believes that a different world needs her.. She is almost gone.

Un-like him.

His parents were rich, had all kinds of money but, then everything went slowly down.

His father slowly went mad and his mother died of a illness, his father beat him when he was small, and almost killed him if the cops had not of shown up.

Kenton Judile was thrown into a mental institution when he was just a six year old...

But, he plans on getting out soon.
