The Way I can Tell
Voices
I must have fallen asleep because before I knew it I was dreaming again.
Except it felt real.
It was a dark room so that I could see nothing. The darkness was so thick I could taste the suffocating mist as it cascaded over my lips and down my throat. It was an addicting flavour. A flavour of death. In the distance I could see a faint blue glow and I knew that it was Frank. Another glow I could tell was Ray. I don't know how I could tell but somehow I managed to tell the glows apart from what they felt like.
Suddenly the scene changed and I was in a hospital bed with doctors towering over me with their surgical masks and latex gloves a wicked grin fixed in their eyes. With a sudden moment of horror I realized it wasn't me they were working on. It was Frank. I was Frank. They had their scalpels to my bare chest and the scene changed again.
This time I was in the meadow again. I was alone and storm clouds have gathered around only the meadow and all the flowers were dead. In the center where previously Frank and I were laying was two tombstones. Frank Iero 1998-2013. Michale Way 1997-2013. A voice whispered through the meadow. "You killed them Gerard. It was all your fault. Don't you see? You killed both of them. You just don't notice yet. . ."
Thankfully some one woke me up right then.
"Kid, Kid wake up." The male voice said shaking me.
I waved him away. "Let me sleep."
"You've been like that for hours. Are you okay? You're cold."
I sat up. "Shit. How many hours?"
"All night just about."
"Fuck!" I bolted up. I had to find Frank and I had to find him now.
My search of course started on the second floor where all was silent save the sound of a girl sobbing. I followed the noise to the room farthest from me where I saw a girl sobbing over a boy. This wasn't any boy however. It was my brother.
I hurried away quickly. No time for that.
The next room I checked was a man lying in bed with bandages wrapped around his head.
"Times up Gerard. They're coming for you." A voice whispered to me. But when I turned there was nothing there.
Except it felt real.
