Description I stood there staring out of my window. The rain was coming down hard. I knew it would. I turned my head slowly to look at my room.
It was small.
My bed was unkempt and dirty and clean clothes lay strew across my floor. I looked at the clock.
2:04 a.m.

He will be here soon, I thought to myself, He always comes about now.
I pulled the hood of my black jacket over my head and opened my window. A slight wind brushed my face with a gentle hand.
I jumped out of my window, landing on the horizontal pipe that lined the apartment wall. I scooted along the edge of the building until i reached the metal latter and rested for a moment.
I looked around at the city.
My city.
Everyone was asleep. All the lights were off and all the noise i heard was the tapping of rain against concrete. I started scaling the building up the ladder until i reached the roof. The rain started coming a little harder.
I sighed and outstretched my arms, pointing my chin to the sky. I let my thoughts dissolve and my eyes close until i sharp noise made me snap back to earth. I turned to see a shadow just disappear out of my vision.
"He's almost here," I said to myself, "I better get going."
I ran across the roof in a full sprint, the rain soaking me to the bone. The wind whipped my hood off my shaggy black hair. I wanted to just jump off the edge of the roof for the thrill but i knew what I was here for.
I jumped onto the thick wire that connected the power lines to one another. The wire splintered a small streak of electricity into my shoes. I felt it tingle. I balanced myself carefully and walked across the wire like it was a tight rope.
"Almost there," I said to myself under my breath.
I looked up ahead of me at the power lines.
Another sound echoed behind me. I stopped walking.
I heard the deep inhales and exhales of a great beast behind me. I slipped backwards on the wire a little as i felt it strain and stretch with tremendous weight.
"Back again?" I asked.
"I should ask you the same thing," it replied.
"Are you really going to do it this time?" I questioned, still not turning to look at it.
"I should ask you the same thing," it said coyly.
I felt the wire relinquish the weight of the beast behind me and i turned around just in time to see the giant wolf disappear again.
A snarl roared behind me and i felt a pain ripple into my body. I looked down at my chest. The wolf's skull of a snout was emerging through my bones. I turned my neck to look at the wolf. It grinned back at me.
I felt blood spoil down my wet clothes just before hearing an ear-splitting crack. The wire broke and a wave of electricity was let loose into the open air. The wolf laughed and disappeared again.
I was entirely drenched with rain water and blood. The electricity current caught me by the arm and shook my entire body with hundreds of volts. I couldn't scream. I just let my burnt and damaged body fall from the sky with the rain.
Slow like the rain.
Crying like the rain.

xliveGAARA7 In reply to Avis-A [2008-05-16 22:28:00 +0000 UTC]

yeah a lot of people have dreams that totally don't make sense. my dreams are like stories.

that's why i love my dreams. they are perfect for art class while we draw and tell stories. i'm a total story teller. so i've said my dreams and a bunch of life encounters before. my favorite dream i had was one where i fell in love with a shape-shifter. i've always wanted to draw him. sigh.
