Kierra lay awake on her bed, staring up the wall where the shadows danced in the moonlight.

"When, oh when are you ever falling asleep?" A drowsy voice called out from the right side of the room.

Kierra groaned inwardly. She wanted more than anything to fall into a fitfull sleep and drift into a world of dreams. How was she to know too much caffeine would prevent her from falling asleep?

"Kierra..." the persistent voice wailed once more, causing her to resist the urge to grab a stuffed pillow and smother herself in it.

"Go to sleep, Ryo." Kierra urged her young sister. "Don't wake me up whenever you have to use the bathroom... there aren't such things as ghosts in this world."

Yeah, right. There are no supernatural beings in this world. But, being the super caring older sister she is, Kierra decided it was best to just shut her mouth and ignore her squaky little sister's chatter.

The shadows grew longer, the adrenaline finally slowed to a dull hum, as Kierra's eyes fluttered to a close and her heartbeat steadied into an even, calm throbbing as she sank into a new dream...

A new setting...
A new world, hidden only within a dream... also,

New secrets to uncover.
