Red had never been a morning person, so it came as no surprise to anyone when she didn't immediately show up in the dining hall for breakfast. True, not all of the subjects dragged themselves out of bed to eat with everybody else, but at least with Red there was a certain guarantee that she wouldn't be showing up any time soon. Of course, it never did help that she was rarely asleep before 1AM, let alone the amount of energy she gave off on a day to day basis.
But today was a little different from the norm, as it turned out. On the other side of level 5 from the dining hall, snoring away in the comfort of her pleasant little room, the young woman lay upon her bed without a single conscious thought. The covers were kicked off, her pillow had managed to wedge itself between the mattress and the wall and her limbs were splayed out every-which way while the girl's head dangled precariously over the edge of the bed.
So... That was no different from the norm. What WAS different about today was that Red had a nightmare.
...And as observed, she could be quite active in her sleep.
It was a good thing near-enough everything in the room was practically indestructable, else there might not have been much of a room left that morning. Small fists slammed against the walls and bedframe, shaking the solid surface and rattling the highly reinforced metal. Through the night sharp, solid CLANGS had sounded from her room, keeping her neighbours up far longer than they would have liked. Still, YOU try waking the girl who could benchpress a truck from a restless sleep and see if you walk away.
Anyway, all of this rambling aside, Red's foot pushed off the wall in another restless motion, promptly shoving her upper body off the side of the bed and slamming her head onto the ground with a dull thud. About ten seconds passed before a light grumbling rose from the woman, confused muttering giving way to a particularly loud yawn as the rest of her body slumped down onto the floor.
I am Inferi.
