Chapter 6 (Female Version): A New Ability!?

It went from March to August. You felt disgusting. You couldn't remember the last time you took a shower.

While in this position, you heard a door open. You turned your head and saw a woman enter the room. She was around your age, but she looked much different. She wore baggy clothes and no make-up. She had bags under her eyes and looked very tired.

During this period, you had dug a grave for Adam and mourned. You were still wondering what happened to him and the man that operated on you. Only his daughter was with you now and no guards has approached you so far, so you thought that the tracking device was gone. You can't go outside or contact anyone, or else you're dead.

You looked at her and she stared back at you. She was holding something, but you couldn't tell what it was.

It was a note from her father. It said

He had taken Adam's organs to afford buying food for the whole family by selling his organs to the black market. He was going to kill you as well but got a phone call from a mysterious person who told him not kill you.

She looked at you with tears in her eyes.

"I'm sorry." she said sobbing.

Marin wanted to help you. Her quirk was Origami Manipulation which allowed her to create sentient origami figures which would follow her every command. She secretly sent her creations to you while you were unconscious. They would steal food, blankets and other essentials for the both of you.

The sentient origami could also dance and look out for enemies. Unfortunately, they were mute, but could fly up in the air to spell letters. One was an alligator, another was a snake, the third one was a bird, and the last one was a unicorn.

Marin's various creations had names such as George, Snout, Beakman, and Sparky. They provided you with entertainment while you were alone.

Nathan  used to live in the cabin.

Nathan didn't come back. She did not know what happened to him. He could be dead or alive.

Maybe he was captured or was fleeing from his family. You were together with Marin for two months and were about to celebrate your fourth month.

"I have been very bored here... It's just me, Marin and those creatures, but they don't talk back..."

You could never imagine how she felt. You and her would trade stories about your lives, favorite books, and how you were feeling. She was a sweet girl who knew little about the outside world before she met you.

You would never let anything happen to her.

You looked around the room desperately for a weapon, but you couldn't find anything. You felt incredibly woozy and light-headed. Your vision was blurry and you were starting to feel dizzy.

You were about to have a nightmare. It was a side effect that has haunted you ever since you got hit by the nightmare particle.

You were going to suffer a seizure and hallucinations.

You immediately fell to the floor and convulsed as your surroundings changed. Your body turned black and you felt somebody pulling your guts out.

It was Mr. Dream.

Mr. Dream was a being of pure energy and controlling your dream.

You wanted to scream, but no sound escaped your lips. Instead, his maniacal laugh filled your ears.

Mr. Dream looked like the Nightmare Bloke, but was something entirely different.

He had a pale body with black veins traversing his skin. His eyes were completely black, like there was nothing behind his eyes. He had a permanent grin on his face, revealing a set of straight, white teeth.

Pringlenia Teddy tried to run, but she felt frozen in place.

"Remember, you can't run from your nightmares! You did this to yourself, Pringlenia."

She tried to scream again, but was unable to. She looked around her and saw she was in a room full of broken electronic equipment.

Pringlenia Teddy tried to pick up the electronic equipment and throw it at Mr. Dream.

Mr. Dream just sat there, laughing. She couldn't hit him because she was still unable to move.

"You truly are helpless, aren't you?" he asked.

His lips aren't moving at all!

Pringlenia Teddy tried again.

Mr. Dream's mouth continued to giggle, but his eyes narrowed.

"You're going to be here a long, long time," he said in a low voice.

Pringlenia Teddy says "Fuck you Mr. Dream. I fucking hate you."

Mr. Dream's smile faltered for a split second.

"Are you seriously swearing at me? Do you realize who I am?"

"Yeah, you're Mr. Dream, and I fucking hate your guts."

Mr. Dream's face contorted into an expression of anger and disgust.

"Filthy whore."

Pringlenia laughed so hard she cried.

"I'd rather be a whore than the fucking monster you are."

Mr. Dream's eyes went wide.

"I gave you your powers," he snapped.

"You did this to me, you sadistic fuck and what powers are you talking about?"

"Do you remember the night you got your powers?"

Pringlenia frowned, trying to remember. She remembered a bright light and the feeling of floating.

"Yes, go on..." you says.

"The night you got your powers, a being of pure evil granted them to you. I am good, and so that being of pure evil is my archenemy. I've been fighting him for years."

"Years?"

Pringlenia Teddy says "You are not fucking good and I don't know what you're talking about. I have my quirk Smoke Absorption and I have not noticed any other quirks."

Pringlenia Teddy says "What kind of powers are you talking about?"

Mr. Dream's face turned red with anger as he glared at Pringlenia.

"Glare all you want; I'm not scared of you."

Mr. Dream rose from his seat and slowly walked towards her.

Mr. Dream said "I gave you the power to absorb anything."

"Bullshit, I can only absorb smoke," she said, confused.

Mr. Dream laughed.

"That's because I haven't taught you how to use your power yet.

Pringlenia Teddy says "Really? So, what does that mean? What can I do? Can I absorb everything?"

"You can absorb most things. I say most because there are some things you cannot absorb. You can absorb some elements, some electricity, most importantly, a lot of smoke and ash."

"Most importantly smoke and ash?"

Pringlenia Teddy says "So I can continue smoking as much as I want. That's cool. Now I can really kick Rost and Marin's fathers ass and maybe I'll go after the nightmare bloke as well."

"That's the spirit," Mr. Dream says with a smile.

"Wait, does this mean I can fly?"

Mr. Dream laughs.

"Maybe one day," he says.

Mr. Dream snaps his fingers and the room returns back to normal.

Pringlenia Teddy says "Weren't you supposed to show me how to use my new powers?"

"Yeah, but not today. You need to rest for now. I'll contact you again when I have more training for you."

"How are you going to contact me?"

"The next time you have a nightmare, we'll see each other again." Mr. Dream said.
