1 Dream.

*Booommmmm!!!!!!* Lightning strikes a common two story white house.

*Boooooommmmmmmmm!!!!!!!* Lighting strikes the same house again and again and again.

The lightning seems to be drawn to one spot, one of the bedrooms on the top floor of the house.

Inside that bedroom is a sleeping teen. The teen is tossing and turning, his body covered in sweat and his face is scrunched up in fear, the teens name is Lars Törsen.

Urrrrrrreeeeee!!! kirrrrrrrrrrooooooo!!!! yuuuuuuurrrrreeeeeee!!!!. An ancient booming voice yells. Lars tries to cover his ears with his arms, but no matter how much he tries he can't seem to move his arms. The voice is accompanied by terrifying reptilian like fiery red eyes that seem to be staring directly into Lars's soul, and no matter how much Lars tries to look away from the terrifying reptilian like eyes, he can't seem to move his head.

Urrrrrrreeeeee!!!!!!!! Kirrrrrrrrrrooooooo!!!!!!!! Yuuuuuuurrrrreeeeeee!!!!!!!!!!. The ancient voice yells even louder then before.

Suddenly a giant mouth appears and it's open wide, showing off long terrifying serrated teeth that look like they would destroy anything they touch.

Lars stares at the mouth in horror. He tries to turn around and run, but just like his arms, his body won't listen to him either. All Lars can do is watch in horror as the mouth creeps ever closer towards him.

Please someone help. Lars prays desperately, unfortunately no one answered Lars's prayer as the things mouth starts closing in on Lars about to devour him.

Just before the mouth closes completely around Lars he hears a terrifying *Boommmm!!!!!*.

Lars sits up in his bed covered in sweat, breathing really hard.

It was just a dream. Lars thinks to himself relieved. He's still breathing hard and his heart is seriously pounding in his chest.

The dream felt so real that he genuinely thought that he was about to die. He's had dreams about the voice before but never the reptilian like eyes, nor the horrifying jaws that attacked him. He felt so helpless before that... that thing. He was powerless in front of the creature and he hated that feeling.

Lars suddenly sniffs the air because he smells something weird, it smells like something's on fire.

Lars looks around his room trying to identify where the smell is coming from, that's when he notices that the entire right side of his room is on fire. Lars eyes widen in shock and his heart drops, he cannot believe that his room is on fire.

*Bang!!!* Lars's door is thrown open and a woman in her late 30's rushes into his room. The woman has long black hair and crystal clear blue eyes. She looks around the room hurriedly until her eyes land on Lars. "Lars get up!!!We need to go!!!" She yells hysterically.

"I know mom!!!" Lars jumps up out of bed and rushes towards his mom, his moms name is Emma Valentina. Lars doesn't go by Valentina because he uses his fathers surname.

The two inmeadiately run downstairs.

As they get to the bottom of the stairs, Lars notices that it's not just his bedroom wall that's on fire. Everything below his room is also on fire. The two waste no time trying to collect any belongings and just rush out of the house.

Lars notices a crowd has already gathered outside of their house, watching with morbid curiousity as their home goes up in flames.

Emma wraps her arm around her son and pulls him close to her. "Are you okay Lars?" She asks worriedly as she checks Lars for any injuries.

Lars grabs both of his moms hands in his and looks her in her eyes. "I'm okay mom." He smiles sweetly at her. Out of nowhere Lars suddenly shoves his mother away from him.

*Boooommmmmmmmm!!!!!!!* Lightning falls from the sky and strikes Lars.

*Ahhhhhhh!!!!* The people watching scream in shock.

"Nooooooooooooo!!!!!!!!!!* A blood cuddling scream echoes through the starry night sky.

Emma rushes towards Lars's fallen body.

When she nears, she notices something strange, there's no hint of burn on Lars's body, the only evidence of him being struck by lightning is the smoke wafting off his body, the charred ground around him and his burnt clothes. However upon closer examination Emma notices something strange. On Lars's body are weird runic tattoo's all over his chest and biceps. On his stomach is a tattoo of a hammer surrounded by lightning.

Emma's shocked that she never realized her son had all these tattoos on his body, but she remembers seeing him walking shirtless this morning and he never had any of those tattoos before. Emma quickly throws that thought to the back of her mind, for now she needs to check on her son.

The ambulance arrived about 10 minutes after Lars was struck by lightning, they quickly loaded his unconscious body into the ambulance along with his sobbing mother Emma.

Lars isn't responsive, if not for his pulse you'd think he was dead.

The doctors checking Lars out were shocked to hear that he was struck by lightning because there seemed to be nothing wrong with him, he seemed healthy, extreamly healthy in fact.

The doctors could do nothing for him, all they could do is wait.

Months flew by and Lars continued being a medical mystery. While in a coma instead of getting weaker like a normal person, Lars was getting bigger and stronger with each passing month. Lars went from a skinny 5'11 kid to a muscular 6'6 man in the span of a few months. The doctors were baffled by his growth, but they couldn't find anything wrong with him, and Emma had assured them her son wasn't on any weird medication or any type of steroids, his blood test results also confirmed her story.

It was late afternoon, the sun was just about to set as a exhausted Emma had come to visit her son at the hospital. She had barely slept since the day Lars had gone into his coma.

Emma pulls into the parking lot of Beacon Hills Hospital. Lars had been transferred to this hospital since their local hospital wasn't as well equipped to deal with coma patients as Beacon Hills hospital was. Emma was a lawyer, money wasn't a problem for her, so she immediately requested her son be transferred to Beacon Hills Hospital.

She sold their old house and moved here after Lars's third month in a coma. She even got a new job at Whitmore law, a law firm in Beacon Hills. She did all that so she could be closer to Lars, just incase he woke up, but it's been 9 months now and he still hasn't woken up. She's starting to lose hope, she fears he might never wake up again

*Booooommmmmmm!!!!!!* Emma notices lightning come crashing down on the hospital.

Emma can't help but flashback to that night, the night Lars fell in his coma.

Emma rushes inside and runs towards her sons hospital room. As she gets closer, she notices a crowd gathered around what should be Lars's room.

"Move!!! Move!!!!! Get out of my way!!!!" Emma yells as she pushes her way through the crowd.

As she makes it to the front, she tries grabbing the doorknob of his room, but before she can her arm is grabbed and someone pulls her back.

Emma turns towards the person, her face full of fury. "What are you doing?" Emma demands.

"I'm sorry Emma, but touching that door could get you killed." A brown skinned nurse with dark brown eyes and long curly brown hair tells Emma, the nurses name is Melissa Mcall.

"My son's in there, let me go!" Emma yells furiously, as she struggles against Melissa's grip.

"Guys help!!!" Melissa yells as she continues restraining Emma. The male nurse standing next to Melissa grabs Emma and helps Melissa restrain her. "Mam the doors electrified, if you touch it you'll get seriously hurt" The male nurse tries to explains to the struggling Emma, but Emma seems not to have heard him and continues to struggle against them.

"I don't care, he's my son!!!" She yells as she furiously tries to break their grasp. "I need to see him!!!!" "I need to make sure he's okay!!!!" She cries.

"I know, I know." Melissa says reassuringly. "I have a son myself, and I know he wouldn't want me killing myself doing something stupid."

Emma turns towards Melissa. "If that was your son in there, wouldn't you want to do everything you can to make sure he's safe?" Emma asks with a look of desperation on her face.

Melissa looks at Emma with understanding. "I would, but I still can't let you throw your life away." Melissa says firmly. "One of our doctors are already in critical condition because they touched that doorknob. Once we're sure it's safe, only then will we let you in."

"Al...alright." Emma agrees reluctantly and stops her struggling.

About 20 minutes later they finally got the door opened. They went inside they were shocked to find that everything had seemingly settled down and the inside of the room was perfectly in order, as if nothing had happened.

After it was confirmed safe, they allowed Emma to go inside.

Emma hurriedly runs to her sons bedside and is relieved to see that nothing is wrong with him, that he's completely fine.

Emma places her hand gently on the side of her sons face and gently caresses it. "Please.... please wake up Lars." She cries. "I can't take it anymore." Emma drops her head onto Lars's chest and sobs.

Suddenly Lars's eyes open. His once playful sky blue eyes, are now a serious stormy blue/gray.
