Ten

I lay awake at night. My thoughts were screaming. My head feels like a storm. I can never reveal the truth. I can't. It's too difficult to speak off. I couldn't bring myself to talk. I didn't want to talk. Maybe I should. I can't go on like this. I need to tell them. I hate their eyes. I hate that they look at me like I'm a liar. Though, I can't deny it. 

I look outside. The sky was clear like glass. The stars were shimmering like the sun. Perhaps a night walk will cheer me up and get my head clear. I walk outside. I breathe in the fresh air. I trail through the village. Even though most lights were out, it still looked beautiful. Every family, every child, and every guard were asleep. I found no sleep. I can't. Not in the state I'm in. 

"Trouble sleeping Dragon Tamer?" Lord Patrick said walking over to me.

I look at him. I nod. He smiled at me. He put his hand on my shoulder. 

"Walk with me." He said.

"Yes sire." I say.

I walk with him through the village. He leads me up the wall. I look out at the zombies and the skeletons. He turns to me.

"Is there something that is on your mind?" He asked me.

I turn away from me.

"This scares you, doesn't it?" He asked.

I look at him.

"More so than you can ever imagine." I say.

I look at the undead. I was one of them. I was a zombie. I remember feeling like in a cold dark sea. 

"When I saved you, I saw someone so powerful that would be a true warrior." He said.

I look at him. He put his hand on my shoulder. 

"Conquer your fear Rain." He said.
