    I AWAKEN from a very bad dream to the sounds
of a blood curdling scream out in the back of the hotel. I jump out
of bed and land on the barely carpeted surface of the hotel room. I
feel a twinge in my ankle. Great. I landed too hard. Next time I
will just have to be careful.
    I limp towards the window of the room Chris
and I share together. He never hears or feels me get up with the
way he sleeps. I lift the blind to see a load of blood splatter
against the widow. I jumped a little backwards. Now I am a little
on edge. Why couldn’t I just be left alone to sleep through the
night?
    Without warning, my body begins to glow. Not now.
    Powers that I have never used before begin to
activate as if on automatic pilot. The room gets really bright and,
then, in a flash I am standing on the other side of room’s window
out in the forest that is behind the hotel. At my feet lays a
bloody head ripped from its body.
    I see the head and I, instantly, feel
nauseous. Oh, my God. What the hell --?
    That’s when I hear the roaring coming from
not that far away. Please, no. Oh, please, no!
    The monster turns and heads my direction. He
closes on me rather rapidly. Damn he’s fast! So big and so fast!
Whoa!
    I turn and, quickly, jump out of the way as
the huge beast. The monster, with patches of green fur, looks at me
with those beady gold eyes. He slashes as me with his claws and I
continue to jump away from him. A shaft of light begins to form in
my right hand, as I back away from the snarling monster.
    My nightie blows in the breeze that seems to
be coming only from the forest behind the hotel. I feel the chill
on my bare skin as the wind whips around me. The monster, then,
lunges at me. I move backwards as the katana becomes solid in my
hand. As I move backwards, however, the monster manages to slash a
strip off of my nightie. He barely missed taking a chunk out of my
skin. Sheesh, this is ridiculous.
    I do the best that I can to dodge the attacks
of this burly, hairy beast. As soon as the katana solidifies in my
hand, I go on the offensive. I lunge at the beast with the katana.
He swipes with his claws to defend my attacks. He’s strong. Very
strong.
    Each time my attack is repelled, I fall
backwards. I regroup and jump into the air. His eyes are upon me as
I begin to come down at him rather rapidly. But, sadly, I leave
myself wide open. He swings his large fist, on an upwards
backswing, as I come down upon him with a downward strike of my
katana.
    The backside of his fist hits me square in
the jaw. I hear my jaw break from the force he uses. It sends me
flying into the hotel wall near my room’s window. As I spin, I drop
my katana as I fly towards the wall. When I hit the wall, I hear my
jaw shatter like glass. Damn!
    The beast, knowing he has me beat, slowly
makes his way over to me. My vision is fuzzy as I look at the
beast. The monster, to me, looks as though he is walking on unlevel
ground. Then, the beast drops to the ground in utter pain grabbing
its head. Then, it lets out a large roar into the air.
    I try to stand up. I promptly, then, fall
right on my butt. I have a bad case of dizziness and cannot stand
up on my own two feet. Not more then five minutes later, Brandon
arrives out back to help bring me back into the hotel.
    I hardly remember being brought into the
hotel. I am so groggy. The pain is just unbearable. My jaw is
swelling by the moment. I hold my jaw still sinceI cannot move my
jaw without is intensely hurting.
    “You okay?” my brother asks.
    I shake my head no. I, then, look over at
Michelle, who is wearing Disney Princess pajamas. I contact her
telepathically.
    - Michelle. –
    - Yes, Destiny? –
    - I need you to talk for me, please. –
    - What happened?-
    - The beast shattered my jaw. –
    - Oh, my, Destiny… - a shocked
