Reese snapped her fingers and the doors to her brother's shop, opened. She quickly went inside and closed the doors. It wasn't until she slid down the door that she realized that she wasn't in her brother's shop.. She was back in that horrible dream with the shadow.

Reese turned and saw the shadow rummaging through different things throughout the weird shop that they were in.

"What do you want?" Reese whined. "Why can't I just have a day where you don't bother me?"

"Until you remember I can't leave you alone. You need to join us, Rae. You need to be reunited with your true power."

"What the fuck are you talking about?" Reese questioned. "I'm at my full potential, Mr. Shadow, so I don't know what the hell you're talking about."

"You will soon." The shadow stated as it started to fade away into nothing. Reese looked around and saw that it was turning back into her brothers shop.

Once the whole nightmare went away, she walked to a corner and started to cry. Reese didn't want to do this anymore. She was tired and felt powerless, which she hated.

Reese looked over and saw a guitar and picked it up. She remembered a song that she once wrote when she was with Cade, and started to remember all of the lyrics.

Early in the morning I still get a little bit nervous

Fighting my anxiety constantly I try to control it

Even when I know it's been forever I can still feel the spin

Hurts when I remember and I never wanna feel it again


Don't know if you get it cause I can't express how thankful I am

That you were always with me when it hurts I know that you understand


I don't wanna lose control

Nothing I can do anymore

Trying every day when I hold my breath

Spinning out in space pressing on my chest

I don't wanna lose control


Sometimes I still think it's coming but I know it's not

Trying to breathe in and then out but the air gets caught

Cause even though I'm older now and I know how to shake off the past

I wouldn't have made it if I didn't have you holding my hand


I don't wanna lose control

Nothing I can do anymore
