5Book of Dreams and Magical Things: Chapter 2 (Hush Child, Hush)
-Remember this was an adoption story? Well, this chapter will be the same.
-I got a review saying "Not to change the POV" well, I don't (nor will I ever) write my stories in 1st Person. However, I did go back and correct the mistake where there was a little section of 1st person instead of 3rd in chapter one.
-Disclaimer: I don't own anything! Duh!
Jack's nightmare continued to chase him. Calling to Jack with his velvety sweet but eerily soft voice. Jack ran as fast as he could but his bare feet could barely take him a step further. His appearance seems to change whenever he dreams, no matter what it is that Jack goes to bed in. His eyes change to a bright diamond blue compared to his normal chocolate brown and his hair and clothes become layered in a thin frost, honestly, he barely looked human. The boogieman could tell that Jack was slowing down which only made the boogieman smirk. He began singing a slow melody;
"Hush dear child, hush.
The trees whisper your name.
They speak of your sorrows.
They know of your shame.
Run dear child, run.
Or you will soon be done.
For they know of your sorrow.
They know of your shame.
Come dear child, come.
I'll keep you safe and warm.
I'll shield you from their evil storm.
Stay with me child, stay.
And then one day we can play.
A game of blood and gore.
You will cry your song,
While I sing along.
Then your misery will end.
Hush dear child, hush.
One day I will whisper your name,
And I will know your sorrow,
And all of your shame.
He finished his song with a sharped toothed smile. A smile that promised only horrifying things. Jack stood rooted to the spot, paralyzed as the boogieman began to creep forward. His golden eyes sparkled with what could only be described as sick, twisted amusement. Closer and closer he moved, reaching out his long arm to catch Jack.
Jack's eyes shot open as he leaned forward and let out a blood curdling scream. Where was he? Jack looked around the dark room, not being able to recognize anything. He started to panic, trying to get off the bed. Wait…bed? Jack flinched as he felt a hand fall on his head. His panic started a-new as a dark shadow draped over him.
