Chapter 04 || ~Different Nightmare~
The Lost Descendant [hiatus]After crying herself to sleep, Cami fell asleep on Sid's bed. The nightmares soon returned, yet it was different from the previous ones.
Cameron found herself running down the same dark corridors while being chased by the same monsters. She didn't know why they were chasing her and she didn't understand why she couldn't escape them at all. She ran and ran, but her stamnia was wearing thin and she could feel herself slowing down.
