When your eyes are blind with tears but your heart can see: another life, another galaxy

Jul 07, 2009 17:58

Cassie Lang had found a quiet spot in the city where she hoped no one would find her. She lay down on the floor, hugged herself, and cried until there were no more tears left to cry. Sleep overtook her but her turmoil continued.

Dream Weaver had stumbled upon her dreams the first night by accident. It was obvious there was a heavy sadness on the girl, so Selene chose to watch the dreams. It was painful to watch them, but she did.

There was a point she couldn't quite stand, however. To see her struggling, she wouldn't get better if she just gave up.

It was time for a test, Dream Weaver decided and from her perch on the statue, made visible with her illusions, she plucked a cord on the lyre, letting the sound echo and allowed for the scene to freeze around Cassie, the smoke immediately around her fading from sight.

Now she wanted to see what Cassie would do.

Cassie breathed and looked around, confused at the suddenly retreating smoke. She pushed herself up, or at least she tried to, her body barely responded to her commands.

Come on... She would have said the words but her mouth wouldn't move.

Selene watched and then then a sound whisper through the air for Cassie to hear. It was fate, but loud enough for her to hear, using a mix of Jonas' and Cassie's voices for the words. "Get up. Please, get up."

"Get up." She echoed the words. "Come on." With a great deal of effort Cassie lifted herself up and onto her feet.

She was still surrounded but at least the crowd wasn't laughing. "What do you-" Her eyes landed on Kang, or rather Iron Lad with Kang's face. "No..."

Next part. Dream Weaver formed the illusion of Kanga right over Kang, focing him to become her own puppet in the dream world.

"Do you fear me?" Kang asked, taking a step towards Cassie? "Do you, Cassie?"

Cassie clenched her fists. "No, I hate you."

On the ground in front of her lay the skin that had been Iron Lad's face. She grabbed it and sprang forward, putting it back in its rightful place.

"And I'm not letting you take him!"

Dream Weaver smiled. Ah, there we go. Now she was getting to see some of that fire. Hopefully it wouldn't wane.

Kang grabbed her wrists, his own body shaking, like he was trying to avoid reverting back to the old face. "Do you....really think you can?"

Kang fighting back only strengthened Cassie's resolve.

"Yes." She growled, still holding the skin against Kang's face.

Kang struggled for a few more moments, but finally had to relent to Cassie as the face reattached, letting out a scream as his hands moved to clutch his face as he stumbled back and began to fall.

Cassie stepped back and watched as Kang changed back into Iron Lad then dissolved into nothing.

The dream faded and Cassie woke, unaware of help she'd received in her slumber.

Selene felt herself forcefully thrown into another dream as Cassie woke up. She blinked in surprise, but then smiled. Well, that was a good start for now.
