Dream Observation Nine,
The rest of yesterday, I cried to myself. I don’t know what has gotten into me. I’m not myself lately and I can blame Walter for that. My hands are cold and my body is going through phases of hot and cold flashes. I sat on my couch and rocked myself into comfort. I have to pull myself together! I’m really losing it… Walter has done this to me. This is how I fall apart. I don’t want that to happen. I just want to be normal but he won’t allow it. I’m here in this damned apartment of mine and he keeps me attached and wanting to be near him no matter what goes on. I got another red note from that Joseph… I wonder what happened to him. I heard a bit from the neighbors before about a man living here before me. These dreams are ripping me apart from the inside out. Not only do I see whom he hates and he kills them to be in his ritual but innocents! People who did nothing to him really… And then I am feeling parts of the dreams that are more real to me. And his past self is talking to me as well! I feel as if I could rip my hair out and yell at the top of my lungs. He’s killing teens that would be going to school. Though they stray and try to find out more than they can handle.
Eight did not end there and another place would come into view… Oh no. It was a continuation dream. Oh how I hate those… He won’t let m continue on but he will show another death to me. This dream is just a brutal time. Why did they do this? Once more he just got done killing Bobby in the previous dream and now Sein is there and he’s in trouble too! There is that one… He’s hiding. Scared. I have to tell you about this…
When I open my eyes this time in the dream, I notice I’m on the top of the building where Bobby’s body was placed and made to fall. It didn’t happen that way though in the previous. Walter must have done it to coexist with this next one. I’m still at the Pleasant River University… And Sein is there in shock and crying out for the killer to let him live. I see the lanky one down at the bottom of the building looking up to the two. ‘Ah…! N-no… Please! Don’t hurt me!’ Sein cries to the man. Walter grins and holds his hands out. ‘You wanted to meet the devil though, didn’t you?’ He asks coyly. Sein shakes and tries to step back from Walter’s reach. ‘Y-you killed Bobby! You killed Bobby! You’re no friend of anyone’s…!’ I could hear Sein rant on toward Walter. Obviously Walter was not going to let these kids go.
I couldn’t stand there anymore. I begin to move quickly towards the other two. Sein stumbles back due to his feet. The poor kid was scared to death almost and this would be his death. ‘Walter!’ I made the mistake of calling out to Walter here this time. I feel so foolish for doing so. Walter’s past self didn’t seem to notice me yet. Thankfully, that is. I watch in horror as well as Walter advances towards him. ‘Hey, come on. I’m not going to hurt you. Come on up and meet me.’ He calls out gently to the one other. ‘Jasper, run!’ Sein cries out to him from up here. So…that is Jasper. I wonder why Walter wouldn’t tell me before. ‘S-Sein!’ Jasper cries out to the other student who is up here. Walter looks down to the other. ‘I won’t kill him. I promise.’ He’s making this like he’s some good person AFTER he just killed someone in front of another.
Sein moves back now, he does the crab crawling as he moves away from the man. I walk a little bit closer to them and my mouth is burning. My throat is dry and I want to scream out to someone. ‘Walter! Let them be!’ I yell out to the one Walter who moves ever closer to poor Sein now. He wasn’t listening to me… Or was he ignoring my calls to get his attention? Walter was doing this on purpose as not to delay the present. If I had spared the two kids, then Walter would be short of a heart for the ritual. He grabs Sein by the neck and hauls him up to his feet. I watch in horror while Walter drags the kid near the edge of the building. Walter has this look in his eyes… And this scares me. Why is his present form not showing? Where is he! Walter begins to strangle the other in his grasp. That sadistic grin crossing his features while Sein struggles to live.
‘N-no… H-help me!’ Chokes out the dying Sein. I step closer and panic on what to do. You can hear thunder in the background as a storm was approaching the area. I look to Walter in fear now. Jasper watches afraid to come out of hiding. I would hide too if I was someone like him. Then again, I’m not. Sein’s gasps for air begin to grow less. He’s struggling though to free his self from Walter. I hear something pop over there. Walter is squeezing and taking the air from the kid. ‘What’s that? Help?’ He mocks the other while shaking the dying body. Sein reaches out to grab onto the other. At least to try and pull away or pull hair. That isn’t even working now for him. His actions are getting sluggish and few. He tries to beat on Walter now in hopes to let him go.
‘S-Sein!’ Calls up the scared Jasper while the other is being strangled. ‘J-Jas…’ Sein barely chokes out within Walter’s grasp. I watch Jasper for a minute as he takes off from where he was. The kid runs away and down the street. I look back over to Walter who has finally slain Sein. The kid’s body motionless and limp now. He had dropped his camera on the ground. Walter drops the body and glances to me. ‘You shouldn’t interfere with what happens. Be ware of what will happen or come… Henry.’ He takes up a scalpel from the biology classes and moves down at the dead Sein’s side. I step closer to the two while Walter begins to surgically cut into the skin and flesh. Once again, I get a closer look at this work. He was…a doctor or so.
I don’t know yet that I’m biting my bottom lip so hard. It hasn’t set in for the pain yet while I watch him so intently. I feel the sting of tears again as a few drops down my cheeks. The sound of thunder is growing near to us as well. Walter works carefully like a doctor but quicker. He soon has a slab of flesh and skin cut enough to reveal the heart. The man looks frightening when he’s staring at something like the human heart. Walter grabs the heart and uses the scalpel to rip the tendons and veins from the heart as he collects it. ‘He and his friends are nosy little punks anyway.’ He says to me while standing again. Blood stains his fingers and drips along his cheek. I release my bottom lip and wince as the taste of blood fills my senses from my lip. Not only that, from him.
‘B-but… They’re only teens! Why did you have to--…” I was cut short on my sentence when he looks to me with this look that just read ‘I could care less’. Walter gives me a cold stare while holding the scalpel close to him. This was the past form of Walter too. He looks scary in the present but something about this form of him…it really made me have chills. ‘Curiosity killed the cat and so it did to those two. You see… They don’t really go to this university… They heard by eves dropping that the devil was here at this college. See what happens… You don’t care either, Henry. You’re here for the ride…the thrill. I bet you get those chills and they’re the kind that excites and makes the blood boil. Not run cold…’ Walter lectures me dangerously with that scalpel still in his hand. The man walking slowly closer to me while I stand there motionless for some reason.
‘What about the marking of the number!’ I shout out to him. Honestly, I can’t believe that was the first thing that came to mind. If Bobby was two, and then he had to be three, right? Walter chuckles coldly before pointing to the already carved numbers into the stomach. ‘Three.’ I look to him quietly while my ears detect the thunder is getting closer. I hadn’t even noticed the sky growing darker with clouds. My mind and eyes had been set on watching all this before me. I step back now, only once. ‘What are you going to do to me?’ I manage to squeak out while looking to him. He shrugs and steps even closer with the scalpel. ‘Want to see what it’s like to be toyed with by a ghost of a person?’ I back up a little more now once I heard that. ‘How can you be a ghost!? Where the hell is your present self!’ I call out to him in fear of something ominous growing close.
He doesn’t answer me at all just advances closer. Like poor Sein’s eyes, mine were wide now as I watch Walter. I feel the first drop of rain to fall along my cheek. I dare not look up and distract myself. He’s quick and it’s wise to keep track of him. ‘Don’t you dare kill me!’ I yell at him. Walter’s green eyes gave a stare toward me. He didn’t speak now… I step back as far as I can go and wait for my own end to come it seems. I close my eyes and stand there. The thunder now grows to a roar, as it is so close to where we stand. The rain begins to fall at a moderate pace. My chest heaves while I breathe hard and swallow the spit back. I can hear him walking closer to me. He’s so close now… That scalpel in his hand. I bet the rain is washing the blood away from his skin.
I brace myself for the worse when I’m suddenly taken off guard by Walter’s present self. He grabs me from behind and pulls me close so I couldn’t escape. Like I would! I won’t jump off a building at all. The other form walks up till he’s in front of me. I’m sandwiched in! Both Walter’s have me cornered and restraining me. I feel the cold steel of the blade of that scalpel touch along my stomach. It gave me chills just to feel the blade touch my stomach. The Walter in back who holds me still watches with interest while his past self toys with me. The blade soon trails ever so carefully along my stomach. There comes a nick as it pierced through a little of my skin. I flinch, as it is natural to do so when feeling pain. Walter laughs and uses a knee to rub along my ass.
The other Walter in front moves the scalpel away and slides the blade gently along my neck to my Adam’s Apple. I hold still as best as I can. Heaven help me, I wish not to be killed now. My mind actually wanted to know what would be happening here. Walter whispers to me from behind. ‘Surprised? I thought you would love this.’ He seems all thrilled about this too. My heart is pounding and the rain is soaking all of us. The thunder roaring in my ears as lightning comes forth from the dark sky. Thankfully the rain hides my own tears of pain. The other Walter in front brings the scalpel away and peels my eyes open. They feel as if they had to be pried open like someone would do if glue had stuck there.
‘Aaah!’ Comes my cry of surprise when the sting of the ripping of skin happens. Just a bit sticky around my eyes. Walter places his head on my shoulder from behind while the other uses the scalpel and runs it down along to my groin. Thankfully I was clothed down there but still… It can be a threat to my manhood. ‘Please… Don’t hurt me, Walter.’ I plead with him to spare me at least. The present form chuckles and whispers to me. ‘I’m not going to get you yet… You have to wait.’ I lower my head and let the rain drop along on the back of my head. Brown hair sticking to my face as I do so. ‘He’s trying to interfere.’ The past Walter says to the other. ‘You will not hurt him now…’ Comes the irritated voice of the present Walter from behind me. The two seem to be giving each other a talk of who is in charge.
‘Mother will come and I want him to be the last. You have NO POWER over me… In fact, be gone from us. Your time in this dream has served its purpose. You’ll come again.’ Walter says to the past one in an aggravated tone. He was angry… Not at me but his past form. The other must have stepped out of line when he spoke to me. The one form gives a look to us and fades away. Walter turns me around quickly and makes me face him. I can see he’s dead bent serious on something. It makes chills run along my spine. ‘You DON’T EVER stop my work… You have a purpose in these to watch and be terrified.’ I grow a little angered but it was a bit of that with frightened. ‘What am I supposed to do!? Huh?! You’re tearing me apart, Walter! I am watching these dreams and I’m getting lost! I don’t know much about you…!’ I’m going on and on with this rant. I have no idea where it came from.
It’s like we’re lovers ranting at one another. He’s not my lover at all at the moment. I can’t believe I’m thinking this… He looks to me and gives a dark look. A hand grabs hold of my cheek and squeezes some. ‘You’re cute, Henry… Why do you fight it? You know it will come… You’re going to watch closely to each dream. And when the time does come to explore, do so.’ I shiver and cough as my chest aches. ‘I’m in pain, Walter. Why can’t you let me rest peacefully?’ I whimper in a low tone to him. My face pointed to the ground as I speak. He laughs and raises his hands to the air as he looks up. ‘You are privileged! You get to see all and then you get to play! What is wrong now? Afraid of me?’ He taunts me in a callus way before grabbing my shoulders and shaking me.
‘I give you a piece of my life each night. Isn’t that the best!?’ I hear him clearly as he is raising his voice to me. Not only that, he’s doing so because of the roaring rain and thunder. This is the first real dream where there hasn’t been any sex. No sexual acts at all… Maybe that’s because last night’s. ‘You are showing me your acts of murder! You’re showing me so much death!’ I get out and say to him. Walter just gives a cold look while listening. ‘You aren’t grateful? You’re not understanding? I thought you wanted to understand! Don’t make me have to hurt you in the end, Henry…’ I look up at him in horror, as I know what he could do to me. I clear my throat and shake my head. ‘Walter…’ My voice growing soft now.
‘Go Henry… I’m tired of this dream. But watch yourself.’ He moves and jumps off the edge of the building. I look down in horror but find he’s gone. Nothing. I look over to the dead body of Bobby and then here I see Sein’s body. ‘I want to wake up…’ Why can’t I wake up yet? I’m yearning to wake up and shake this dream away. Please someone… Save me from my hell! Walter’s laugh can be heard from all around as he taunts me while not even being there. ‘I want out!’ I call out to the sky. Rain still coming down hard upon my form. ‘Let me out, Walter! I’ll try to be more watchful!’ I try to plea and reason with the man who wasn’t here now. ‘P-Please…’
I shut my eyes for a minute and when they open again, I notice I’m back in my room. I suppose he heard my plea to him. I sit up and rub my forehead. God… That was close. I did not want to be stuck there or get killed by him then. Walter was not happy with me at all. I can tell from that. I tried to stop his work and his past self got annoyed and then this happened. ‘My god…’ I murmur to myself while looking at the ceiling. Why does all of this fall on me? I do not wish to have such hardships of luck. Walter, why me?
End of dream nine.
