The dream...
I felt a numbing telling from my left arm
Its rather hard to move...
Wait, in fact... I can't at all, it's immobile?
My leg also felt aching plenty
Sorta stiff in a way

This atmosphere... And everything
Warm... Something that almost shocked me
It felt like I haven't had such gentle warmth in a while...
Dysequilibrium...
My head does incorporate a lightheadedness sensation
Slight vertigo...
Do I still pertain freedom thought?
13 * 13... 169
15 * 15... 225
18 * 18...324
Name? Takashi Maeda
Age? 80...
Gender? Male
Just to make sure
Memory is fine...
...
...
Ouch...
...Damn
Nevermind the formalities
I'm in a bed
And it's obviously dark here,
I suppose...
And very damp...
Scents of rain?
Maybe it's just already 3am?
Did I left the window slightly opened?
I might be wrong, but shouldn't I'll start working at 5am?
I gotta get going...
Peering out; my eye...
To my horror...
Was not my usual desk
Or my alarm clock
This is not even my room?
I still have a hard time empowering my neck exactly...

As I try to sit up, sharp pain surges my head
"What happened..."
As I held my head with my right hand
Attempting to comfort so by rubbing my temple
I can feel my cheek warming
Feverish?

As my eyes adjust to the room
It was dark and rustic place
I sigh as I stopped my comforting exercise

Where am I exactly?
There I was at a double decker bed in a rather dark confining room
There was 2 of such bunk bed side by side where I occupy 1 of 4 beds
The door was on my left, behind me, where slight voices of chatter could be heard?
A bright candle was placed atop of a plate at the floor, reason why I could see and where most of the light came from
And lastly I saw a head; resting on where my arm was at

Ears... Wolf ears?
A woman?
As I place my hand on the head and rubbed it gently
Enjoying the soft sensation, with a care in the world
It's therapy like sensation, describing so
Isn't this surreal?
Dream perhaps?

It was only few moments till then it later woke up.
Was of my doing perhaps?
It looked bluntly as if it had a long nap
Ruffled hair and all
Drowsiness...hehe...

Gazing through, it seemed surprised
it stared at me
Tense and concerned

I inspect it's face in greater detail
The texture of the face, contrast to the fine peculiarity of her hair
And it's eyes, very focused and unnatural
Like a predator ey...

???
!!!!!

I instinctively pull away from her
My back against the wall and my headrest to cover my main body
I bumped my head against the cold bricks
Arenderline spiked as I felt my heart beat faster and faster
Bowel began to have numbed
My eyes that started to blur
My head started to stir up again
My ears started to hear ringing high notes
As I remember the last moments of terror of being hunted...

I remembered everything!
I died and was brought back
A girl with personality issues and karma Issues
And misfortune after another

My heart started to feel clenched
Wheezing as I felt suffocate from the inside

Being so close to the threat!
The frustration swelling within!

"Wait, I didn't mean to"
I couldn't hear her words...
I couldn't understand...

As she paused for the moment
Contemplated in what to do
Watched as I burned up
Panicking

Then I saw her rushed forward
Hands apart and...
Places her arms behind me
And...

Hugged me?
She hugged really hard
So hard that it almost hurt

She started to burst in tears
And so did I
