*Second trigger warning, panic attack and blood*
Luna's pov
-
Her silver eyes glowed under the dark room, it was the only thing giving off any light. My hands scambled around in search of a wall or anything to brace onto.
I had no idea if I was in a small space but my heart started to clench. My breathing somehow started to become shorter with each inhale, my chest heaved heavily and my bottom lip quivered. I felt tight, my body felt tight.
The dark room was filled with the soft hisses of pythons, their eyes also glowed silver to match their master. Their eyes swayed left to right in which I assumed moved in time with their slimy body as it got closer to my feet.
The fear sat on me like a pillow over my mouth and nose. Enough air gets by it, allowing my body to keep functioning, but it's crippling all the same.
"Where the fuck are you!" I screamed as I tried to find my way around the dark room
"Darling, I'm right here" She whispered, my jaw clenched at the sound of her voice
"Where is he!" I yelled
"Who is he?" she whispered, I could tell there was a smirk on her face. She was toying with me.
"Where is Lucifer!" I yelled again, my eyes frantically scanning the entire dark room
I groaned and clenched my fists, taking a swing at anything in front of me. But I failed when I basically punched air.
"Ah right, Lucifer. He's right here, do you wanna see him?" she asked, she sounded so calm, it made me furrow my brows
"What the hell are you up to Medusa" I mumbled
"Nothing, nothing at all" she smirked
"I swear, when I find you I won't hesitate to kill you" I gritted.
"Oh really?" she asked, her caramel skin came into contact with mine
Medusa walked forward, her silver eyes pierced through mine as she stopped in front of my face
She's right in front of me. It's now or never.
The adrenaline coursed through my veins, I allowed myself to feel the energy of my powers run through my body, ready to consume my emotions and numb my pain.
But they failed. My own powers failed me.
"Silly child, you really thought I'd give you back your full powers?" Medusa smirked
Wait. Wait a minute. I've seen this before. Where have I seen this before?
"What the hell is going on?" I hissed
"Come with me child" She ordered and started to walk forward
I don't know what happened, but I wasn't even in control of my own body. The next thing I knew, my feet was taking control and following behind the woman. Everything seemed so blurry, so surreal. Was this real life?
"You sure you want to see your father?" she asked
"I-" before I could even answer, the lights were flickered on and revealed someone in the corner of the room
The figure was hunched over on their knees, coughing, blood dripped down their knees and ran along the entire floor. I stumbled back when the concrete ground was slowly rising with blood.
"What the-"
"Luna!" the voice yelled
"Dad!" I hissed and shoved my feet through the thick blood, running over towards the figure
"Luna!" the voice yelled again, I furrowed my voice.
It seemed to be two different voices coming from the same figure. I still managed to use all of my strength and pushed through the sticky thick blood that felt like quicksand to my feet. I ran, I used everything within me and ran towards the person
"Luna!" another voice yelled.
I swear the voices kept changing with each step that I took. The red blood was starting to fill the room, rising up my stomach, halting all movements. It felt like molasses wrapped around my body.
The thickness was too much for me to handle.
"Luna" another voice called out, I furrowed my brows at the familiar voice
Suddenly, the figure started to become visible, their head lifted and a sinister smile spread across their face
"Luna!" my father screamed.
Suddenly, his head turned to the side, it continued to spin until it reached around his entire body. I felt my stomach churn at the sight. The head then came back around, but this time it was another face.
"Luna!" Taylor's face yelled. My eyes widened and my jaw dropped when the head snapped around again
"Luna!" James's face yelled.
I couldn't breath, it felt as if someone was choking me. My heart was racing and all I wanted to do was curl up into a ball and wait for someone to save me from this nightmare.
The face that came next was the one I feared the most.
A choked cry for help forced itself up my throat, and I felt a drop run down my cheek. It seemed as if this was the end of the road for me.
"Luna" Aelia's face whispered, I shutted my eyes, refusing to look into those tear filled eyes.
It's not real. It's not real. It's not real!
--------------
"Luna!" Aelia screamed
"It's not real, IT'S NOT REAL" I screamed out
Suddenly my eyes opened to reveal that I was in Aelia's hotel room, on her bed and covered in sweat. Her eyes were wide as she stared at me
"Luna, are you okay? You were yelling in your sleep" she whispered and climbed onto the bed
A bead of sweat lined my entire forehead as I panted for breath, my heart was racing a hundred miles per hour and a ringing consumed my eardrums
I felt the panic begin like a cluster of spark plugs in my abdomen. Tension grew in my face and limbs, my mind replaying the last attack. My breathing became more rapid, more shallow. Aelia noticed this and pulled me into her
My body rested in her lap and her arms wrapped around my back tightly, my heart continued racing wild and my bottom lip quivered.
"Luna, Shhhh it's okay. I've got you" she whispered
Her fingers stroked through my hair, immediately calling a small part of my nerves. She rocked my body back and forth, her soft whispers filled my ears.
It was in times like this that I knew Aelia Green was the only person with such control over me.
The dreams have been going on for a while now, I just never had the courage to tell anyone about it. I always shrugged it off as a memory but this... This was the worse one yet.
I've never seen Aelia's face appeared in one of my dreams before and that was what made it so terrifying.
It was as if my mind or whatever it was, knew that Aelia made me weak.
But the screams, the cries of my father, Taylor and James was pushing me over the edge. What did those dreams even mean?
Since the airport, it's been going on everyday. It was as if something triggered within me the second I stepped into the spot where my world went dark five years ago.
"It felt so real. It felt so fucking real Aelia" I whispered
"What, what is it baby?" she asked softly, her fingers continued to comb through my hair, circling over my skull
"Those... Those dreams" I whispered, flashes of the dream started to appear in my mind again
My eyes drip with tears. The walls that held me up, the walls that made me seem so strong just collapsed with those tears. Moment by moment, they fall, drenching Aelia's shirt.
"Is it the dreams you told your dad about?" she asked
"I-"
"It's okay, you don't have to explain anything. Just nod your head if it's a yes" she said in a soft voice, I slowly nodded.
Since my father visited me and talked, nothing changed. It kept getting worse and worse everyday, I never told Aelia.
"I'm so sorry Luna"
"It's ok-"
"No. It's not okay. You didn't deserve this Luna, you literally don't deserve any of this bulkshit to happen to you. Luna you're literally the best person there is, your mother needs to burn in hell and her bones needed to be thrown out into the universe so space alien dogs could have a feast!" she hissed
I felt a smile tug across my face and happiness pile in but I was crying.
My dog was still I'm trembling. I physically couldn't stop it. Even as I pressed my eyes shut and clench my jaw, it continued to shake, it tremble.
"You went into a battle you weren't prepared for, everyone around you betrayed you. The woman that was entering your life as a new mother failed and did the most fucked up thing. Your own blood mother acted like a fucking mad woman because of her own feelings getting in the way" she said
Her eyes then glanced down to mine and she cupped my face, her thumbs stroked and wiped away the tears on my cheek.
"You watched everyone you've ever loved, almost die in front of your eyes and there was nothing you could have done about it. You've felt pain like no other, Luna. You've felt pain and that pain didn't leave. I'm so sorry that you've feeling this, but I'm here. I'm here now and I'm never leaving. I'm here for you, we'll get through this. YOU'LL get through this. I'll be here by your side with each step, we're not gonna let her win" she said
My heartbeat was now back to normal, the trembling muscles had disappeared and I felt nothing.. nothing but love in my heart for this angel that had me in her arms.
"We're gonna get through this together Luna, you're never gonna be on your own again" She said, her own eyes were glossy, tears slipped from the rim of her eyes and traveled down her cheek
Aelia was the only person that could make me feel like this. So safe, so secure. She was a small and petite girl who blushed all day, everyday. But when it came to the one she loves, she never fails to make me feel like the only person that mattered.
She makes me feel special.
I pressed my lips against hers, the salty release dripped down my own lips as I kissed her. Our trembling bodies held each other that night, finding a peace within ourselves, a new sense of trust.
I even believe that it opened a door to our relationship and made it even stronger than before.
