I throw my arms around his neck, holding on because on the inside I feel like I’m missing something. We will probably have to research it but maybe I’m starting to fall for him or maybe it’s both and maybe he feels the same way as I do.

I don’t know how long he holds me but I don’t let go either, when we finally release each other we are both smiling. I look down at the ground trying to hide the sadness in my eyes. How could it be that I just met this boy 2 days ago and I’m already falling for him? When we get inside, I tell him everything. I even tell him about the training I have signed us up for. I also tell him that Alex knows about me and that in during this week we will have to go to the library to research what we are.

That night we sit in the lounge room, casually watching TV, when Ash says

“I think we have a link, because when you were gone my body would pulse with electricity every time I thought about you.”

“I felt the same thing, but it hurt the most when I arrived back here. I think it was because I couldn’t see you but I knew you were here.”

“Yes, I felt the same thing when the car pulled up, it made me barge through the door and hug you! We need to look this up and see why it’s happening.” He gestures to the clock. The time reads ten past ten.

“I believe we should go to bed, it’s late, and we have a long week ahead of us.” I agree so I get up and leave the table, slightly disappointed that nothing happened between us.

By the time I am ready for bed it is ten thirty and I am exhausted. I lie on my bed but my body keeps pulsing with electricity, I need to see Ash but I don’t want to wake him up. So I try to get to sleep. The more time I spend with him the worse the pain of being apart is and it’s horrible.

Just as I am on the edge of sleep, there is a knock on the door and a soft whisper,

“Natalie, are you still awake?” I roll over and groan softly. Then suddenly Ash is at the edge of my bed.

“What is it Ash?” I mumble quietly, still trying to wake up.

“I can’t sleep, I keep thinking about you and my need to be with you...” I nod my head slightly understanding how he feels. I move my body over so he can fit on the bed. At first he doesn’t understand what I am doing but I gently pat

thebedandheclimbsin.Wefallasleepwithoutanymore talking, we don’t even touch each other, and we just drift off to sleep.

In the morning, it’s a different story. I wake up with my back against the wall and something heavy draped over my waist. I slowly open my eyes to find Ash facing me. His arm is the heavy thing on my waist and our faces are just inches apart. My hands are in fists resting against his chest and the rest of our bodies slightly touching. It feels so relaxing that I close my eyes again. When I reopen them I stare straight into Ash’s deep brown eyes. It’s a strange feeling but I love it. He breaks the silence first,

“Good morning Nat.” That is the first time he has used my nickname since we met. I continue to stare into his deep brown eyes that are so full of mystery; they are so pretty in the morning when they are kind of heavy with sleep.

“Good morning Ash.” We continue to stare at each other in silence.

Finally I say,
“We should get up, we have a long day researching.”

He doesn’t move for a while and just stares at me with his beautiful eyes. When he moves, he doesn’t move away, he pulls me towards him and wraps his arms around my waist and puts a hand on the small of my back, softly forcing me against him. My heart is pounding. My face must reflect a mixture of curiosity and fear; not knowing which one is

stronger. Finally when he is satisfied that we are close enough he puts one hand on the side of my face and leans forward.

My brain is working at one hundred miles per hour trying to process what is happening! When he is only centimetres away, I close my eyes because he has already closed his, then I wait and wait and wait. What is he doing? Then suddenly he whispers into my ear,

“Yeah, I think it’s time we got up.”

Slowly I open my eyes to see what is going on, his eyes are still closed and his face is just a centimetre away, meanwhile I can feel the rest of his body compressed against mine. So before he knows what’s coming, I close the gap between us for only a second while I kiss him on the forehead. Then I quickly jump over him and leave the room. I run into the bathroom and wash my face. Last night was the best night’s sleep I have had in over a year and I feel amazing. I leave the bathroom to make myself breakfast, while I am eating, I hear Ash moving around in my bedroom. When he emerges and sees me at the table he flushes bright red and quickly runs to his bedroom. It is going to be a long day.

  • Nightmare   The Library (Natalie)

    When we leave the car is in complete silence. It takes us half an hour to get to the library, so the silence lasts that long. Sometimes I would mumble the words to a song on the radio, Ash would sometimes as well. When we get there he only says,
“We need a computer and access to informative books.” We choose to work separately because of what happened this morning, I start with the computer and Ash starts with the books. I log in and start searching. I search the word “Ma Vista” and a whole heap of websites come up. I search through some of them but after an hour I start to get restless, it isn’t until I find the website ‘What are Ma Vista’s and what do they do?’ that I get excited. I click on it and read the first paragraph; it has what Alex said to me two days ago. As I continue to read I come across new information, so I call out to Ash. He comes flying through the door, closes it softly and we start to read. ‘A Ma Vista also known in English as “with sight” is a creatures o

  • Nightmare   This is going to be a long week! (Natalie)

    My day of freedom ends up being used to stay in bed all day and that night, Ash sleeps in my bed again. This morning when we woke up, we got out of bed straight away because today is “learn to defend yourself and kill your enemy” day. I am extremely nervous about this training thing but it needs to be done. When I am getting dressed I go through a drawer of cloths and pick out a black long sleeve shirt and black tights, then I grab a pair of Alex’s shoes and a pair of socks. When I finish getting dressed I head to the bathroom and wash my face then I pull my hair up into a tight ponytail so it won’t get in the way. When I am finished I meet Ash out the front with the cars. We choose to take his car because it’s better for long distance travel. It takes us two hours to get to this place, which is in the woods and hardly has anyone there so at least we won’t be embarrassed. There seems to be a couple of workers moving about outside the front of the camp. A couple of them introduce the

  • Nightmare   Combat Training Sucks (Natalie)

    Walking into the little cafeteria, lunch smells amazing and my grumbling tummy agrees. Ash and I both get servings of salad, potato bake, pasta salad and some meat, which include chicken, sausages and ham. I eat lunch at a leisurely pace not wanting the time to end, but it does and we are moving quickly back to the training compound. Riley said we would be doing more of the basic hand-to-hand combat but he never said we would be using boxing bags. My knuckles are going to be raw after today. He demonstrates how to punch the bag because it movies when you hit it. Finally we are allowed to hit the bags, and they are heavier than they look. While Riley is talking to Ash I try to kick it but I completely miss I steal a glance at them to see if they notice but I don’t think they did. When Riley starts to watch me I see a sense of approval in his facial expressions. I must be doing something right, so I decide to test my luck and try to kick it again but my foot doesn’t want to kick the b

  • Nightmare   We don’t totally suck at this (Natalie)

    When I wake up in the morning, Ash must have come into my room and just joined me during the night because he’s lying on his back with his arm around me, while my head rest against his chest, my body curled up against his body. He must feel my body tense because when I go to move he says “Good morning Nat is your body sore from yesterday?” “I don’t know Ash, because you won’t let me move.” Slowly he lifts his arm and lets me escape but as soon as I move my legs I cry out in pain, oh the agony. It shots up through my legs and down my spine, my arms are also sore. And my knuckles are bloody from the punching bag. I’m in agony; I collapse to the group and lay there in a ball until the pain starts to pass. Then as I go to move and get myself a paracetamol Ash appears at my side with it and a glass of water. Through the rest of the morning I slowly walk around getting ready, for another horrible day of exercise. When we get to Riley, he says we will be doing knife throwing. We follow

  • Nightmare   Accident with no suspects (Natalie)

    As we unpacked the car, I can’t help but notice that while we have been unpacking, Ash has been putting in other things such as an extra tyre and petrol tins, jump starter cables and stuff like that. What is he planning; I’m sure he will tell me later when we settle down. Finally we are inside, when Ash drops a bomb. “I’m not sure if you have noticed but we are going to the mountains to start looking for these monsters. It would be better for us to eliminate some of the monster population, so there is less to worry about later.” “Why didn’t you tell me that in the car?” I ask sounding pissed off. I could tell he is keeping a secret, does he not realise that that hurts more. “Because I thought you would prefer to hear the bad news here, instead of in the car where we could get distracted.” He replies in a matter of fact kind of way. “Well at least you’re thinking of road safety.” I retort back. “I’m sorry okay; I didn’t mean to hurt your feelings.” “Yeah right.’ I say angrily.

  • Nightmare   Ticklish (Natalie)

    I remain numb as it sit on the couch starting at the picture of the family. We looked so happy. I’m pretty sure I’m in denial about the whole situation. Ash turns the TV off,
“Do you think we can win this war?” I ask sadly “Yes, I do believe we can win this war because if we don’t the monsters will destroy the planet.” He says with a hint of anger in his voice. “I’m sorry about your family, sometimes I wish we weren’t Ma Vista’s because we would have a good life, imagine a life where you and I meet and we fell in love, because we liked each other, not because of the connection. Do you think that’s possible to fall in love, like if I fell in love with you, not because of the connection but because I thought you were amazing and beautiful and everything.” He says the last bit with a hopeful voice. “Yes, I think it’s possible otherwise the website would have said “Ma Vista’s can’t fall in love with anyone except the opposite Ma Vista.” If it said that then we would be in troubl

  • Nightmare   Goodbye Party (Natalie)

    The next day Ash and I have a practice session with the weapons that we got for Riley, and then we have showers. When I finish my shower I walk out and realise that I forgot to grab my dress and underwear, which means I have to walk down the hallway with my towel wrapped around me. So that’s what I do, well what I try to do, it doesn’t work every well because as soon as I open the door I see Ash waiting for the shower. That is when I realise that the towel only just covers my butt and my chest and it doesn’t leave much for the imagination. I try to walk out with my head up but it doesn’t stay that way for long. As soon as I put my head down I run straight into Ash, I look up startled and he looks just as startled. Then he takes in my predicament and laughs; he then puts a hand over his eyes and walks around me to the bathroom. I half walk, half run into my bedroom. I quickly put my bra and undies on then take my time doing my makeup and hair. My makeup is only soft and hardly notic

  • Nightmare   I don’t want to go! (Natalie)

    By the time we got home I was a complete mess, tears were streaming down my face, my eyes were puffy and my nose was snotty. I didn’t want to get out of the car as it meant that I was one step closer to accepting we were about to risk our lives to fight these monsters. Ash eventually made his way around the side of the car and pulled me out. Lifting me up bridal style I could help the rush of butterflies in my stomach even though I was a complete mess. Step by step he gets us inside and lays me down on the sofa. While I lay on the sofa crying Ash starts to pack the car. That night I can’t sleep, every noise I hear makes me jump out of my skin. Every now and then there’s a crunching sound like shoes stepping on crunchy autumn leaves or a snapping of a twig. Sometimes there’s even a loud bang of a closing car door or someone maybe taking the garbage bins out for the garbage truck that will come in the morning. Finally I can’t take it anymore and I give in to the temptation. I cree

  • Nightmare   Aidan (Natalie)

    We sit in silence for a few minutes while Cooper processes what I have shared with him. I’m secretly hoping that he has finished asking questions but I’m wrong. “What do the monsters do?” “That’s a hard one, monsters are the cause of human deaths and abductions.” Cooper sucks in a sharp breath, then releases “How can I help you?” “Well first off, we need to find Ash, he will be the only other person in these mountains and if that’s not true, we are in trouble.” Cooper nods several times then without further conversation stands up and walks outside. I lay there stunned at how quickly he believed me “Cooper?” I call out
“Yes.” Is his reply, but it sounded very far away. “What are you doing?”
“I am starting to pack away all the stuff outside so we can make a quick get away tomorrow. If you wouldn’t mind, could you start shoving all the stuff that is not in a bag, into a bag? That would be lovely. I will tell you more when I am finished out here.” As I go through all of

  • Nightmare   The truth (Natalie)

    This time my sleep is plagued by nightmares and dreams alike. But I only remember one dream, that still plagues my mind when I wake up. I cry out from shock as I am pulled out of the nightmare. My whole body is trembling and I am covered in sweat, which has drenched my clothing making them stick to my body. The image still haunts me, Ash calling out my name, his hand reaching down to grab my hand as I fall. Then suddenly the dream freezes and words appear in the sky in blood red writing. ‘There coming’ then it flickers ‘were coming, be ready.’ Then suddenly I am falling again, than just before I hit the ground it blacks out. That’s when I woke up. I lie there as still as possible, too scared to move. What if the dream was real? What if it was a warning? This dream makes me more motivated to speed up my recovery and find Ash, my adrenaline speeds up and I begin to feel restless. I have to find Ash but I will need Cooper’s help, which means I will have to tell him all the things he do

  • Nightmare   Food (Natalie)

    Finding the bow and quiver had excited me and I wanted to get out here and find Ash and hope that he has also found his weapons so we can continue this war. I know I still have to relax my ankle and my back as well as my rib. So I will hopefully still be able to stay with Cooper for a day or two, the problem with that will be him asking questions, I can’t continue to lie to him, I have never been good with lies. I also fear growing to attach to him, which will cause a lot of problems as well. Sometimes I wish Cooper could see the monsters but I know he can’t. If he could that would mean he is the bad Ma Vista and he would have killed me while I was unconscious. So far this power I have is horrible and I could endanger a lot of people, especially the ones close to my heart, and I don’t want anything to happen to them. It’s an hour later and I smell something really good coming from outside, I also have not seen Cooper since the small incident that happened earlier; I hope he is no

  • Nightmare   Bright Golden Light (Cooper)

    I cry out as I open my eyes, and I find myself in my own tent, sweat covering my body. That was the scariest nightmare I have ever had. I sit up and look over and find Natalie still sound asleep. I have to get out of here and go hunting before I freak myself out even more. I grab my gear for hunting and head out towards my dad’s hunting trail that he made before he died. Walking along I set up several traps so I have a high chance of catching something for Natalie and myself to eat. So I stumble through the woods which are still filled with darkness from the night before which causes me to remember my dream. I couldn’t stab Natalie not unless something had over powered me. Plus Natalie was wearing the same cloths in the dream, to what she is wearing now. She is just so beautiful I couldn’t imagine hurting her; I even hate seeing her in pain. As I walk back towards my camp and Natalie, I check the traps and what I find is a young deer. This is going to be great breakfast, I grab

  • Nightmare   Coopers Family (Cooper)

    “Natalie?” I say, trying to talk to her. “Yes, I was just thinking.” She says randomly, I chuckle at how stupid she just sounded. She roles over and winces from what I believe is pain. “We need to do something about your injuries are you comfortable enough with me to let me do it.” I ask she looks me in the eye and nods. As I check over her body I notice that she has a sprained ankle or twisted ankle and might also have a broken rib. She also has several bruises adorning her body, especially over her back. She ask me what time it was that I found her, but I have no idea what time that was because I didn’t have a watch so I just make it up. Her face seems to pale from the information I give her; I wonder how long she had been lying there before I had found her. “When I found you at the bottom of the hill, my first thought was that you were dead. Then I noticed that you were breathing, so I calmed down a bit then I started wondering what you were doing in the mountains, that

  • Nightmare   Saviour (Cooper)

    I was on my yearly hunt, but normally I would be with my family, except they died a few weeks ago. I don’t know what or how it happened I had just come home and they were all lying on the floor with pools of blood surrounding them. At first I had thought someone had murdered them but now I am not so sure. As I walk along a path my dad had made when we first started hunting, I find a rabbit trail that looks really fresh. I follow it through the woods until I see something that makes my insides freeze. There only three meters away from me lying on her back is a girl, her arms and legs going in many different angles. Slowly I walk towards the body, unsure whether she is alive or dead. As I get closer I am relieved to see a small rise and fall of the girls chest. What the hell is she doing here alone? When I am standing above her I look down at the girls face and I am struck with a strange emotion I have never felt before. But the girl lying before me is gorgeous; I have never seen any

  • Nightmare   The Bow and Quiver of the Third Ma Vista (Natalie)

    As it gets later and I still am unable to stand, Cooper asks me if I would prefer to stay with him or if I wanted to leave. “Staying with you is probably safer then going out there into the wild when I can hardly walk.” He nods his head in agreement. I glance up for the first time and actually look at him. He has bright orange hair, greyish-blue eyes and a small amount of freckles that dash across his cheeks, his hair is cut short like Ash’s but his fringe is shorter. He is lean and muscular, I should have figured that out when he said he carried me for three hours. He looks very athletic and is pretty attractive, he also has a nice personality and is very caring, and I immediately take a liking to him. Before we go to sleep Cooper moves the sleeping bag so I have my own room, he then puts all his luggage in the middle and makes himself a bed on the other side. Before I go to sleep I have to ask “Cooper?”
 “Yes.” he mumbles.
 “Why are you in the mountains?”
 “I came up here e

  • Nightmare   Saved (Natalie)

    I wake up to find that I am in someone’s arms, at first I think that Ash has found me, but I can tell by his deodorant that, that’s not the case. My body aches all over; it feels like I have broken every bone in my body. But at least I feel secure in who ever these arms belong too. So I drift back to sleep trying to get rid of the throbbing headache that now plagues me. When I wake up again, I am still in the stranger’s arms and he is still walking steadily, I feel slightly better this time. With only a small headache but my whole body is still on fire. And it flares up every time this guy takes a step. After what feels like an hour we arrive at a small clearing, in the clearing is a small tent, not much different from Ash’s and mine. He must sense that I am awake because he starts talking to me. “Hi, you’re lucky I found you, a few hours longer and you would have died.” His voice is smooth and light it almost most makes me go back to sleep. “You know, you could actually say

  • Nightmare   Separated (Natalie)

    Once out in the fresh air, I take a deep breath and zone in on all my 5 senses, I feel the warm breeze blowing my hair back from my face, smell the freshness of nature, taste the small mint that is still left in my mouth, I hear all the birds singing in the trees, all the crickets making buzzing noises in the grass surrounding me, all the larger animals running around and snapping leaves and small branches with there feet and of course the leaves rustling over head, due to the wind. I see hundreds of tree trunks, grass covered with leaves and small branches that have fallen from the trees. It is also very gloomy because it is still quite early in the morning and the sunlight rains down in patches landing in certain spots. As I daydream Ash walks up behind me and puts one of his hands on my shoulder. Snapping me back to reality. “Let’s get moving, do we have everything we need?” I run off a checklist “Sword, Shield, Bow, Quiver, Knives, water and food, including fruit and Vegetables
