Part 12, Mystery

Neon is back in her human shape, stirring a simmering pot on the burner while Regan chops up vegetables. Clouds rolled in, blocking out the sunlight. The peaceful moment was interrupted by a knock at the door. Neon and Regan stood alert, Neon holding the wooden spoon and Regan holding the knife for defence. Who would be knocking at this hour? I slowly make my way over to the front door. Looking through the peep hole I see no-one. I briefly look over to the girls before slowly opening the door.

The stain of where Regan was lying is still visible against the blue carpet of the hallway. In the centre of the stain sits an A4 sized white shipping package. On the top has my addresses but the name is in a language I can't read. Regan is suddenly by my side as I examine the box, she looks over my shoulder. I hear her softly mumble words I do not understand. She says something to Neon and she just nods before going back to stirring the pot.

"Glad this arrived." Regan smiled as she quickly grab the package from my hands, then placing it on the bench. After dinner, the girls retreated to the bedroom while I flopped on to the couch. I switched through the TV channels for a little bit before falling asleep.

I wake in a room of pristine white tiles on the floor with soft beige and gold threaded wallpaper. Sunlight filters in through three large bay windows. I lay in a double bed covered in fine silk covers. I notice I'm not able to move off the bed. Slowly darkness seeps in from under the bed, sliding over the tiled floor like tar until the whole room is consumed. I wake back in my apartment, the TV buzzing on static, cold sweat dripping down my back.
