Uneasy Shadows Part 2 - The Awakening

I gasp. What is going on? My head is swimming in an ocean of thoughts. The waves are crashing over me, and I am finding it hard to breathe. Can anyone help me?

I realize I am alone, in my bed, with blood on my hands and a knife. Everything is okay! It was just a dream.

Wait!! A knife, the blood. What happened there?

Did I kill someone? Did someone try to kill me? I can’t think. The thoughts come back.

I start to hear voices. The voices suffocate my brain. They say…

"You’re a killer. You’re not a good person. You will never be okay."

I look around; someone must be here. I am not hearing voices. I am sane. I am good. I am a caring person. I love others.

What has happened?
