Dead Awake Page #5

power, you must face your fear.

That's the same thing I told Beth.

Beth didn't know what

she was dealing with.

You do.

Your guilt, Kate, your guilt...

that's what it will exploit.

Overcome that, and you'll

find the strength to break

the paralysis and defeat it.

You've done it once.

Because you shot me full of adrenaline.

And I'll be ready to do it again.

If you can't wait, and I start

to lose you, I'll give you a kick.

Just remember... the

hag can paralyze

your body, but not your mind.

All right.

I'm ready.

Let me do it.

Things get dire, I'll wake you.

But you can do this.

I have faith in you.

Just remember, it's your mind.

You control it.

Come on, Kate.

It's your guilt, your

fear that's stopping you.

Fight it.

Come on, Kate.

Oh, no.

It's OK.

We'll try again.

No.

No.

Hold on, Kate.

I'm coming.

Hassan?

Hassan?

Hassan?

Hassan?

Hassan?

Hassan?

Ah.

Kate.

Beth?

There's not much time.

What?

You need to wake up.

I am awake.

No.

You're not.

We have to hurry.

Oh.

Wake up.

Help me!

- You have to wake up.

- How?

Kate, let me go.

What?

I don't understand.

Forget about me so you can live.

I can't.

Course you can.

You've done it before.

I came to you for help

and you pushed me away.

That's not true.

You always had to be the

center of everyone's life.

So needy, so demanding.

Mom and dad gave

everything they had to you.

There was nothing left for me.

But that was enough, was it?

Linda?

Evan?

In Hassan just died

for you, for nothing.

I didn't mean for this to happen.

You never mean to, Kate.

You just do.

You destroyed their lives,

just like you destroyed mine.

No.

Why didn't you believe me?

You abandoned me.

Beth, I'm sorry.

Please, forgive me.

You're not my sister.

None of this is my fault. And

you're not my f***ing sister!

Please.

Aah!

Well, I have some good news today.

Evan opened his eyes.

The doctors say he's going to be fine.

As for me, paralysis has started again.

But I haven't seen it.

Maybe it's gone, at least for me.

But, no matter what, I promise I will

finish what Hassan started.

And find a way to stop it for good.

So keep your messages

coming, and don't lose faith.

But be diligent.

Because I know it's still out there,

waiting for anyone

who starts to believe.

[MUSIC THE AMERICAN SPIRIT,

" WAIT FOR THE NIGHT "]

Well, out here in the waste land,

we're just trying to survive.

We are not the flesh

and bone, desperately

alone, and along for the ride.

Wait for the night to

occupy the front line.

Well, there hasn't been beauty

since they put it on the line.

Told the executioner to

fire when it felt right.

Wait for the night to

occupy the front line.

Wait for the night,

wait for the night.

Lay down, lay down, lay down.

Oh, whoa Oh.

Lay down, lay down, lay down.

Wait for the night to

occupy the front line.

Wait for the night,

wait for the night.
