Updates are NOT frequent. I am still in school, so I will write and publish as much as I can. Sometimes it takes me a couple of hours to write a chapter. Sometimes it takes me a week. Don't be upset with me if I have a bad week. I'm sorry.

Dream Catcher by A.C.

Don't believe me? Well, let me give you some insight into my life. I was born in London. London, of all places. Why couldn't I have been born in Italy, or Germany, or anywhere else?! But, enough of that. I'm an average, shy 17-year-old girl with no personality and no friends. Well, almost no friends.


"Kate, it's been two days. You couldn't have missed me that much."


That was my best friend Kate. She was the same age as me, but a few months younger. It showed. She had all the energy that I wished I had. All I had was my brain and my freaky ability. Oh, you don't know, do you? Neither did I until five years ago. I was lying in bed, hoping to have the same dream as I'd been having the last couple of days when I saw woods. Woods that I didn't recognize, and heard voices that I didn't know. Then I saw them. Two boys, wrestling in the distance. I saw one of them and gasped. It was John, my partner from school. Either, he was in my dream or... No, that wasn't possible.


Over the years, it kept happening. I finally had to accept that I was seeing the dreams of others. I had no idea why, or how it even happened. All I knew was that I had to keep it to myself, or I was dead.


There was a law, saying that anyone with abilities that the normal population couldn't do had to be turned over, or their entire family would be executed as traitors. This happened once, last year. I was gonna tell my family, then decided not to. I had no idea if they would protect me, or if they would turn me over. I knew that some families had turned their kids over, but what happened to the kids, nobody knew. Either way, I was no going to turn myself in. Not today, or ever. Because at the root of it all, was my strong desire to survive this.
