Real vs Unreal

I open my eyes to a dark room, the only light comes from my right side, at first I don't recognize the room, everything seems fuzzy, and everything seems like a film set, like a terror movie, those that you see a dim light and the attacker comes, I start to panic, it seems my room, but not my room, like a set that looks like my room, the mind starts to under, am I in a nightmare again? this is not my room. I try to move, but I feel a hand in my arm, and I try to look I see a shadow. I don't understand what is going on, did it happen as the witch told me. I was taken away from my family? and why don't I feel fear? The panic is stronger, and I try to talk, but I stumble in the words, and everything comes out like if I was very drunk, and my voice raspy, my throat was very dry. The shadow gets up, a glass appears in front with a straw. I try to take it away. I can't tell what it is, then the shadow spoke something, but I only catch a few words, like water, drink, with a stern and serious voice. I try to drink from the straw. She sits back on the chair and starts to sing something, the panic starts to disappear, and I went blank. That voice seems like I have listened to before like I know her. I try looking at it, but the dim light and my eyes not working properly make it impossible, so I close my eyes and let my panic go with her voice. That I could tell, it was a woman next to me. ---- Elder Natasha P.O.V I sense Brielle might wake up any second. I went up to her room, closed the curtains, it was at the end of the afternoon, the days were still long, and I know the light will hurt her eyes, for being shut for so long. I put a scarf in her nightstand light to dim a bit the intensity, and sit on the chair next to her, the orb was almost fading, just a few more minutes. She opens her eyes, and I look at it, all flashing colors here running in them, she must be confused! I sense her trying to move, so I rested my hand on her arm. "Take it slow, do not try to move so fast." She looks at me her eyes go to gray, that usually is the color when they wake up, a neutral color, we cannot read their souls, or find out what is wrong. Her eyes squint at me like she is trying to focus on something, her vision must be fuzzy, and her eyes go from all the colors to gray. "Hhhhhhhhooooooooaaarrrrruuuuuuuuu?" I got up to her side table and picked a bottle of water that I got coming to her room, poured in a cup and straw on it so that she won't do any big movements for the next hour or so. I got close to her and help her drink the water, but she resisted at first. "Your voice, its water, drink to make you feel better. You still need to recover for the next hour or so." Then I sit back on the chair, she is still looking at me. I start to chant some songs mother used to chant to us, to make us relax. She closes her eyes, and I know she is not asleep just listening. 'Chadrick' He responded right away. 'Yes Kitten, is something wrong?' I smile at his care for me. 'Brielle is awake.' I can feel his happiness. Since we became Warrior and Guard we can mind link. 'I go tell everyone.' Too many people in her room. 'Wait.' I sense him tense. 'Is there something wrong with her?' 'No, she is fine but a little dizzy is not a good idea to everyone come barging in her room now. Can you please ask the cook to prepare some tea and soft cookies and someone to bring it up in an hour so she can start eating something?' He hesitated. 'The time I tell my family she is up, there are going running to her room.' I knew he would understand. 'I know. Try talking to them first, maybe tell Vicktor and Patrice, they will help you keep your parents away from the room until Brielle is better. After she eats, she will have a little more strength and you all can let your parents come first and one at a time, but also prepare them, Brielle might seem distant.' After a few seconds. 'I will try that, big brother is the calmest in all of us. He will use his head first I hope.' I breathe of relief. ‘Thanks, Chadrick’ His voice changes. 'When are you going to start calling me baby?' I smile. 'Are you pouting?' I get an instant response. 'NO' Chuckle 'I will need you and Vicktor after two hours, to help Brielle stand up, and make her walk a little to regain strength.' A few seconds. ‘Better I tell the chef to have something ready for dinner time for her them, she can try and come sit and eat with us.' Is a good idea. 'That is an idea, we can ask once her senses are back to normal.' I can feel him anxious. 'Anything else Kitten?' I decide to tease him a bit. 'Nothing more.' His voice goes to a husky voice. 'Not even a, I miss you, baby?' Roll Eyes 'I will see you later Chadrick.' 'Hm Hm' His pouting for sure. After a few seconds. 'Miss you, babe.' I can feel his smile even in the mind link. After an hour of earing footsteps every 10 minutes at Brielle door, seems they are having a hard time keeping away from the bedroom, can’t blame them, someone knocked at the door. I got up at the same time Brielle open her eyes and blinked at me. ______ Brielle P.O.V The hour past fast, the chants were keeping me in a relaxed state, sometimes I glanced at her so that my eyes would adjust better, plus I start to see things better, my room, my table light, my bed, they don't seem like out of my room anymore. I see her mind link even if she is still singing, never saw a werewolf capable of doing both things, does that mean her wolf is chanting, her voice is a little low but still seems the same voice singing. There was a knock on the door, she looked at me at the same time I open my eyes at the sound. "Must be your food, something light just to help you recover." I can see her a lot better now the light is very dim yet to see her completely, but I think I have seen her already. She goes to the door. I see someone delivering something like a serving tray, wait! she said food. Then the tray comes to my left side of the bed. "The light outside is minimum, I am going to open the curtains a little bit, this might be a little hard, close your eyes and try to adjust taking your time." I shake my head and closed my eyes. She pulls the curtains, and I see the light dancing in my eyelid, you know when we close our eyes at the sun, the colors dance like water. "Don't look directly at, Brielle." I shake my head and look to my ceiling, and open my eyes, it was still a shock. I had to adjust blinking and closing my eyes several times, but then I could see my pink clouds on the ceiling fine. I could sense she was next to me probably closing the light on the table beside my bed. "Let's try putting you up in a sitting position." She picked up an extra pillow, and help me to sit up, slowly so that I do not get too dizzy, put the pillow on my back adjusting. Once I was comfortable, I look around my room, everything the same, my room, I am in my home. "It seems to ask the chef to make you soft cookies turned out to be chewy chocolate cookies." I snap at the tray, and got a little dizzy, moved too fast. "Take it easy Brielle." Smiling. "Seems you like this cookie." She handed me one cookie with a paper napkin, I was trying to bite on it while she was pouring the tea."Is the cookie fine? Can you eat it, or do you want something softer?" "I-its ok" Small voice. “I do not know how to say it, but I can’t taste the cookie, strange.” "Do not push yourself, once your family comes up to the room, you have to try to talk less possible if you don't feel comfortable yet." I am looking at her, "I will try!" I know she seems so familiar. She senses my apprehension, I think. -- Elder Natasha P.O.V. After the food comes up, I take a lot of attention to Brielle, must of the time her eyes are grey, but I can see the small change in the colors. If my sister did not tell us that, we probably didn't pay attention and missed the subtle changes in her eyes. When she opened the eyes for the light the first time, the eyes were flashing a small amount of red and yellow, do to the chock of the light, them she blinked a few times and it was back to grey. When she sat up, and she was looking around her eyes turned blue for a while, which means she is calm I think, seeing her room. When I talked about the cookies and she snapped her head at me, her eyes were yellow, so I am assuming that is happy for her, she must like these cookies. “Thank you, chef.” And she was eating and looking at me, and her eyes sway around all the colors, so I think that must mean she is confused. I then it hit me, I did not introduce myself. " Ohhh Sorry, I am Elder Natasha, I am a Healer, I will help you get your body strong again." ------------- Brielle P.O.V Elder Natasha, I know that name, and looking at her, she was the woman that I saw before I wake up, the voice that told me to believe. I know her, but not from that time, I know her from before, but when? She is a Healer? That means a doctor, I think. I look closer at me, well I already saw what my body is like, but looking at it now, knowing I am awake, feeling the way my pulse is thin, I can tell my bones. Someone knocks at the door, and I see her in that mind link state. She then looks at me. "The other Elders want to see if you are alright, do you mind if I let them in for a little?" I nod. She goes to the door and I see Elder Silvanie entering first, she gave me a big smile as if she was relieved to see me, and then a man walked and stood beside her, it seems so familiar. “Elder Silvanie you already know, and that is Elder Christian.” Once I heard his name, everything came back to my head, the screams, the blood, the babies. I hold on to my head and start screaming.
