Written for: [livejournal.com profile] tv100's "distant barking, breath, salt" challenge.
Notes: Self-explanatory, I think.


"Mama? Daddy?" He tiptoed down the stairs and found a scene of carnage. His breath hitched in his narrow nine-year-old chest when he saw his parents lying there in pools of blood, with a strange man standing over them holding a smoking gun. The stranger looked up...and he was horrified to see that the man wore his own face.

Distant barking startled Sawyer awake from the nightmare. For a moment, he had a hard time remembering where he was. He tasted the salty bitterness of tears, scrubbing his face so the others wouldn't see. "Outta the fryin' pan..." he muttered.
