I find myself in a castle. There’s a tall, big man with black hair and a dark look. He is terrifying for some reason, so I struggle trying to find my way out. The exit comes quick, and I tell the dark man that I’m sorry I have to leave, running out the door. He smiles and shouts something vague as I try to find my car. Instead, I find a familiar minivan with two old friends there to accompany me. They told me this is Boggart’s Castle. They also said those are probably the only words he would ever say to me. All the sudden, I find myself back in the castle. This time, each time I try to exit, I find a new hallway, but they all look the same. I look at my phone, and can barely get to my messages. “Good luck.” I see from one of the friends I had just seen. I can’t text him back, at some point I realize my phone is useless. I’m in this castle, and I have officially gone crazy. There is no exit, and I am so lost I can’t even use a phone. I know and realize I’m dreaming. I tell myself, “Just close your eyes really hard and try to wake up.” After closing my eyes, it seems as if I’ve woken up, but I quickly find myself in another hallway of the castle. This is how I will be forever, stuck in this dream, and when I wake up I will be so confused and affected that I appear crazy to everyone else, forever. I have lost myself. “HUUUUUUU!” I breathe in suddenly as I find myself awake in bed. I sigh. “I am so glad I’m alive.” I think.

I get up, increasingly terrified of the trip I just had. “In the bathroom I can get some water.” I think. I turn on the faucet and open my mouth, yet I can’t. I look in the mirror and there’s only skin where my mouth is. I am sure I’m awake, and in horror, I realize I have changed forever. I can’t speak to anyone I love ever again. At midnight, I lay alone in bed, to be something I’m not familiar with. Changed, terrified, and sunken I rest.
