Chapter 4 - Chapter 4 - pain (fixed)

It has been a week since school started and everything is exactly well almost the same. Eliyah came back from his trip and came by my house asking if I had a spell for him which I didn't. so I'm hanging out with him after school to find one.

The school day hasn't even started yet but I already wish school ended. Luckily none of the teachers are well sh*t but I keep on getting homework on the weekend.

The day it's going to go by slowly so I might as well L.M. for the next 6 hours. How you ask...by splitting my thoughts...aeh who am I kidding I can't do that only anime and novel or split personalities can do that. I'll just fake it and record them speaking for later.

(authors note I'm changing the dreamscape thing to 3rd person-ish)

Day 704…Nico entered the dreamscape. He was floating in space for a while slowly falling then he plummeted to the ground? Or either an invisible platform he winced by the pain and looked at his arm he fell on it shattering his bones. A loud yelp..no more like an angry but pained howl.

He thought to himself that this hurts, it feels so life-like I wanna scream but something is stopping me.

But what happened I was slowly falling which was different from before but the sudden and fast drop took me by surprise and it is... uh... ouch… I guess even broke my arm he continued to think.

He wonders what his real body looks like now. Did he scream from this mental pain or is he silent?

He thought to take his mind off the surreal pain caused by his arm. But unbenounced to him his real body outside of the dreamscape felt everything even the sinking feeling in his stomach equivalent to when you go down a hill or sometimes in an elevator.

His mental state is in a disarray from entering the dreamscape, then the pain from falling and breaking his arm just made it worse.

To himself, he thought about how he needed to exit the dreamscape but the pain rang throughout his body and mind again.

I need to get out he yelled once more letting out another howl.

He tried to clear all thoughts out of his head..letting the pain set in still he cleared out his mind

On the first time, he stained his mind to feel his body only to fail to cause immense pain. The second time he managed to feel his body's presence but still couldn't connect. his third time did not go as planned either. On his fourth and final try, he managed to feel and connect to his body. He mentally sighed as his consciousness flowed back into the physical plane. As he came out an intense sting came from his arm which he followed by moving his other arm to check. he carefully moved his arm up and down hitting a spot that felt like he stabbed himself with hundreds of needles. he exhaled releasing most of his cumulative stress, seeing his arm wasn't broken, just strained.

A second after he relaxed, his teacher asked "Does everyone get this?" The teacher's question shocked him; causing him to grab his arm even more. the pain creating a single tear to fall down his cheeks.

Yes almost everyone said in unison

"Nico what are you confused about?" he stared at me and asked.

"Nothing I just blanked out there for a second sorry" I apologized.

"Okay moving on" he continued with his lesson.

I secretly checked the time; d**n I was in the dreamscape for four periods I thought. How much time do I have until I meet up with eliyah?

I'm sooo tired an...and I don't know.

Bbbbrrrriiivvvvnnnnngg

The bell rang signaling for the periods to change.

I am going to sleep in my seventh-period class as we're probably not going to do anything today.

...

"Nico" a familiar voice shook

"...."

"Nico," it said again

"Nico get your gay furry ass up" another voice yelled and smacked me

"Wwuh...what's going on" I jolted up from my slumber

"School is over dumb ass" the hoodie boy said

"Nilam that was a bit much don't you think" adam in his iconic orange jacket disputed

"What he's awake now right". He retorted

Before Adam could speak he said "anyway are you going to be on the bus today?"

"Na meeting up with one of my other friends after school today" I answered his question.

"Ight see ya furrgot," he said (furrgot is a term my friend says it's a mix between furry and faggot).

"Okay see ya" I got up and put my backpack on.

Time to see eliyah I thought.

5 minutes later

"Where the F**k is this dude" I yelled in the park behind the school.

"d**n you still have a powerful voice when needed since the last time I saw you. you know phones and discord can't capture your voice right" he joked.

" hahaha very funny what were you doing? And are you ready?" I inquired.

"Ya and well I had to text my mother" he answered.

"Ah okay well let's catch up and begin in a little bit," I said.

20 minutes later of almost constant laughter

"So how did you come to know about all this stuff dude?" he asked.

"Well I can't tell you about all of it just yet but I can tell you a little bit of it" I replied.

"Back when I was in elementary school I made a couple of friends some of whom I still talk to today. There were a couple of friends who lived in my apartment complex but I need to talk about them before that... When I met Joseph he was a young and pale white kid I met him walking a dog while I was with my friend Craig who later moved away... but Craig and I had a thing where if we see kids who might be fun we talk to them. It was my turn to talk to them. Joseph was with his sister who we'll talk about later since she's not important. ...We became friends after about a year. I still hung out with Joseph but Craig left. One day Joseph was hanging out with two kids, Chris and Daniel. They were two brothers who also lived in the complex…. We also became friends but I hung out with Daniel more than Chris. We traversed the forest around our homes even Joseph came with us even though he was a homebody. Chris always showed an interest in the supernatural and the four horsemen to the point where all four of us were one of them.

"Which one were you," he asked

"I was the third horsemen famine anyway. I think that's enough for now I'll tell you more later" I answered his question.
