บท 3: Chapter 3 - Faceless man
When Yana arrived at school, she told Lexa about her dream. William, Aldrin, and Sandra were there, listening to their conversation.
"So, you're next, Yana. He won't stop until he kills you." Aldrin said seriously.
"I know, I'm really scared. I don't even want to sleep." Yana said, frightened.
"But the man who saved you in your dream, who is he? Maybe he can help us end all of this." William suggested.
"Right, we should probably find out who and where that man is from your dream." Sandra added.
"But I don't know him, and I don't even know his name." Yana said sadly.
Yana was anxious the whole day at school, terrified of the night when she would have to sleep.
She knew that no matter how hard she tried, she would eventually fall asleep. By nightfall, she had drunk three cups of coffee out of sheer fear of falling asleep. She didn't want to sleep, but around three o'clock, she couldn't resist anymore and fell asleep.
She found herself in a mall, surrounded by many people shopping. She already knew she was dreaming.
She wondered if the people she saw were just characters in her dream or if they were real people who were also dreaming, meeting in one shared dream. She felt somewhat calm seeing the people.
She walked around the mall when suddenly the entire building tilted, like the sinking Titanic. The building tilted, causing many people to slide down.
Everyone was screaming, but Yana managed to hold onto the escalator's handrail. When she looked down, the floor was filled with sharp metal spikes, so those who couldn't hold on and slid down were impaled on the spikes.
Yana trembled in fear, seeing the people below impaled on the spikes. Her hands were barely holding onto the escalator.
She saw the man who killed in the dreams below the spikes. She still couldn't see his face, but from his posture, she was sure it was him.
Yana saw him stabbing the already impaled people below. The man then looked up directly at her. She was shocked to see his face was blank except for a mouth.
She saw his creepy smile again. What kind of creature was he? Yana asked herself, terrified.
One of Yana's hands slipped off the escalator, and she screamed in fear, seeing more people falling onto the spikes below.
Until she can't hold it anymore, her right hand slipped off too from the escalator. her tears flowed from her eyes as she accepted her grim fate.
She closed her eyes tightly until she felt her body landed, but she didn't feel any pain or impalement.
She slowly opened her eyes and was shocked to see the surroundings had changed.
Now, she was lying in a pile of soft balls. She quickly sat up, seeing the other people who were also about to fall were now lying in the balls, looking just as shocked.
In the distance, she saw a man with his arms crossed, looking at her. She couldn't be mistaken; it was the man who saved her in her dream. He approached her quickly.
"Phew, you're hard to find. Good thing I wasn't too late." he said with a smile.
Yana cried out of sheer relief that she was safe.
"Thank you so much. I thought it was the end for me. But you came again. I was so scared." Yana said, crying.
"Please, don't cry. I don't know how to comfort a crying girl." the man said.
"I'm just so scared. I don't want to sleep anymore, you know? I drank three cups of coffee but still fell asleep." Yana said, still crying.
"Don't worry, I'll find you in the dream world and protect you." he said.
Yana stopped crying.
"Don't get any ideas, okay? As someone who can control dreams, I think it's my duty to save anyone who needs my help." he added.
"Thank you, you also saved the others." Yana said.
Yana asked for his name and learned that his name was Qrolo.
Suddenly, the surroundings changed, enveloped in darkness, and they were now on top of a mountain in heavy rain.
"W-What happened? Why did you bring me here?" Yana asked.
"I-I didn't do this." Qrolo replied.
Suddenly, the faceless man with a mouth appeared.
"Stop interfering, Qrolo!!! Give me that girl!" the faceless man said in a terrifying voice, like a demon. Thunder and lightning crashed around them, making Yana cling tightly to Qrolo's arm.
"I won't give her to you!" Qrolo shouted.
"Hahaha, do you think you're the only one who can control dreams?" the faceless man taunted.
"I can take you to hell if I want!!" he yelled, laughing maniacally.
Yana was terrified, and Qrolo noticed, gripping her hand tightly.
"Don't be scared. I won't let him hurt you." Qrolo assured her.
Qrolo's eyes blazed with anger at the faceless man.
Yana couldn't take her eyes off Qrolo's eyes. Her fear gradually turned into calmness because of the man beside her.
Qrolo changed the surroundings, and they found themselves on a beach. Moments later, the faceless man followed and changed the surroundings again, turning it into an abandoned building.
But Qrolo changed it again, and they arrived at the pyramids of Giza. The faceless man followed again and changed the surroundings into a forest.
Frustrated, Qrolo decided to fight the faceless man. He created a blade.
"What are you planning?" Yana asked, worried.
"I'm going to end his life." Qrolo said seriously.
"Come closer so you can be the first to be killed." the faceless man said.
Qrolo and the faceless man fought with blades, dodging each other's attacks. Yana was extremely anxious, unable to do anything but watch.
Qrolo was hit in his side, and he kneeled on the ground. The faceless man laughed, thinking he had won.
"Qrolo!!!" Yana screamed.
"Yana, don't come closer. Run. Run as fast as you can, avoid him until you wake up. Just avoid him as much as possible." Qrolo said, struggling while holding his wound.
But Yana was hesitant to leave Qrolo, afraid he might die in the dream and not wake up in real life.
"N-No, I can't just leave you here." Yana cried.
"Please, go. Don't worry about me." Qrolo said.
The faceless man slowly approached Yana. As much as it pained her, Yana ran. The man chased after her. Qrolo was left lying on the ground, struggling to breathe.
Yana cried as she ran fast, thinking she hadn't even repaid Qrolo. She felt sad for him, unsure if he would survive or die.
She was also unsure of her own fate, praying she would wake up, which seemed to be the only way to escape certain death.
Meanwhile, Qrolo lost consciousness. Suddenly, three strangers appeared: two men and a woman.
"Check his pulse, see if he's alive." one man ordered the woman.
She quickly approached and checked Qrolo's pulse.
"He's alive, just unconscious." the woman said.
