Sleeping Dragons

Since Nakira was a little girl she's been haunted by the feeling of eyes searching for her in the darkness. The doctors called it delusions of persecution. But what if it's real? Drugs were their answer to calm her nerves and silence her fears. But what if it's real? Doctor after doctor adjusted her meds to balance the numbness with enough energy to make life worth living. But what if it's real? Nakira never felt balanced. But what if it's real? Then one day an old medicine man asked to see her. He looked her in the eye and said, "It's good to see you again, old father. I feel them searching for you. I've done what I can to block them, but now it's time for you to wake up, and for me to sleep."
