The grass was cool, the damp smell
of sweet earth filled Emma's nose with a lovely spiciness. The stars were
pearls of happiness shimmering in the sky. She glanced over at Bob. He smiled
back. With a start Emma woke up amid the screams of the underground prison. She
shuffled out of bed, shaking as the echo of voices drifted down the hall, the
old wooden floor boards creaking beneath her feet. She could hear the echo of
them creaking behind her. The cell was small, without much space. There were voices all
around her. Were they real? She thought. Or were they just in
her mind? She couldn't tell. There was a single light in the dungeon and
suddenly went out with a crack. A scream pierced through the dungeon. Startled,
Emma realized that it had come from her own mouth. Footsteps resounded off the
walls as someone approached the cell door. The knob turned slowly. Emma
imagined Bob walking through that door to rescue her from this cursed place.
But no, the door opened to reveal Mr. Anderson.
“Wake up, wake up, Emma. You
fell asleep in class again.” He says, shaking you awake. You realize it was all
a dream, none of it was real but it felt so real.
“I am so sorry, Mr. A, was I
snoring?” You say, terrified that you were.
“Emma, Emma, Emma. You sounded
like you were being strangled.”
The End.
oh my gosh this is AMAZING :)
