"Noooooooooo!!"
Levi woke up screaming while his body was drenched in sweat... his heart was pounding so hard it hurt, making him tighten his grip on it. He sat up in bed, gasping, shaking, and with a face wet with tears.
"No! No! No...!"
He started hitting the bed again and again with his fists, shouting until his voice went hoarse... the nightmare of the cursed night he went through this time was completed, untwisted, just the truth.
No nightcrawler manipulated it, which made it even harder for him to live it again.
To see his parents murdered in cold blood.
To experience the pain of his eyes being ripped out.
To live through that trauma from start to finish...
And so, he just sat there, shaking, crying, until his throat was raw... but slowly, he started taking deep breaths while whispering to himself.
"It's just a dream... I have been through this before... don't let it ruin you..."
