005: Premonition, Cryptic Dreams

"This is phenomenal! From what I can tell, due to your emotions, the Wisp fibres acted according to your will. Long story short, you have powers of a Wisp, but a body of a human, meaning you could potentially be the weapon that saves humanity from this plague!" the doctor whom I will call Dr Smith, exclaimed. I was not sure if I should be happy, or if I should be worried that I am a potentially dangerous superweapon.

I stood in the middle nowhere. There was only one person in sight. It was a girl, the same age as me, maybe a little older. She was beautiful, drop-dead gorgeous. Despite my attraction towards her, there was a feeling.I knew her. I had seen her before. She was in my school. My scene glitches and changes. What I saw next was scarring. That same girl hung herself. Tears of blood streaking down from her face. Elissa… A voice rang. Then, the world started to burn. All that was left in front of me was a fire slowly engulfing me. As I was about to be consumed, I woke up. I was floating in mid-air and my whole body caught on fire. Funny enough, my clothes did not burn. As I regained control of my body, I slowly descended onto my bed. Yet another cryptic dream. The last one was about saving my brother. Was this a premonition of some sort? I shrugged it off, and tried to sleep, but I was shaking from head to toes; I felt like I had ingested 10 cups of espresso, and my heart could not stop pounding. Clearly I could not sleep, I had to figure out what to do.

Elissa is a student at Brenrock Academy. She is in the same class as I am, but i never really talked to her (I may or may not have a crush on her…). However, being a depressed patient myself, I have picked up many occasions where her inner demons showed. Sometimes, she would break down in anxiety and sadness in isolated spots. The sad part is that she is the most caring person in the class, yet no one really knows of her dark side.

I suddenly realised one detail from the dream. Her pupils were black. This would be insignificant, except for the fact that she has graceful, pleasant blue eyes. There is one thing I learnt when studying for the Frontier Corps entry test. When Shadow Wisps enter a body, the host will have black pupils. A weird detail that is crucial in this situation. That probably means there will be an invasion, or she would go out of the borders and become a host. Either way, I cannot let that happen. Especially if I have the power to prevent it.
