The Dream Cronicles: Romance

Jack popped out of his day dream so suddenly that he startled himself. He was sitting on a cloud, the sun setting in front of him. The sky was pink and purple, it was beautiful. "Jack." A smooth voice was calling him, it was a woman's voice. "Jack." It sounded so familiar. So hypnotic, he turned around. "Cheryl!" he said, staring at his friend. She looked different, she had a silky white dress on, that shimmered in the sunlight. Her feet were bare, her blond hair was brushed back. A tiny white flower tucked behind her ear. She looked beautiful, in fact she made Jack feel pretty stupid in his jeans and white t-shirt. "Hello Jack, how are ya?" he forgotten about the fact that he was sitting on a cloud completely. "I'm fine, and you?" "Yes, I'm well." Jack smiled, he felt so weird, but he didn't know why. "You look really pretty." he said, wanting to break the awkward silence. Cheryl blushed, "Thank you." she said, with a wide smile. "And you look, well..." "Yeah I know like I just woke up." said Jack. She giggled. Cheryl walked over to him and sat down, she smiled at him. His brain felt like it was melting, he couldn't look at her with out feeling so, weird, he couldn't explain it. Why is she making me feel so... confused? "Isn't the sunset so beautiful? The sky with it's purple and pink highlights, it's so......" Cheryl bit her lip, like she was trying to stop herself from saying something embarrassing. "Romantic?" said Jack, it made his stomach lurch. "Uh huh." Cheryl said, she turned away. She turned back after a while, she looked kind of scared. "What's wrong?" He asked, reaching for her hand. "Nothing, I don't know, I feel so weird." He took hold of her hand and leaned in to kiss her cheek. She blushed and hugged him. "I do too, but it's okay, why don't we just watch the sunset?" Cheryl smiled. "Okay." She kissed him and then rested her head on his shoulder. They smiled and watch the sun set. After a while, everything began to blur, Cheryl disappeared, so did everything else. Jack woke up. "That was freaky."

The Dream Cronicles: Scary

Elicia ran, she ran as fast as she could. Trees whipped past her, it was getting closer. She heard the creature roar behind her. "No!" She screamed, she ran faster. Branches lashing her face. The pain was nothing compared to her fear. The roaring was louder now. "No! Please no!" She screamed back at the large monster gaining speed. She knew she would never be able to match it's speed, with out thinking, she dived out of it's path and into some bushes. She heard the creature's roar as it kept running in the path she was no longer on. The pain began to grow as the fear faded away. The scratches on her face started to sting with pain. She rubbed her cheeks, and bent down to catch her breath. What was that thing?! she thought wearily. Her legs felt like pudding, and before she could stop herself she collapsed onto the hard, dirt, floor. She looked around at the dark eerie forest. Everything was silent. In fact, too silent. She stood up and looked around, straining her ears for even the slightest sound of a twig snapping. And then, she heard it, crunch. She slowly turned around to see her friend Julie looking at her. "Oh, Julie it's you, I thought it was the..... Well I'm not sure what it is." said Elicia. "You saw it too?" said Julie, in a small voice. "Yes, what is it Julie? What is that thing?" Julie looked uncertain, she stared at her feet. That's always what she did when she was thinking. "I don't know, but I did get a clear view of it. It's body was built like a bull's. A very large bull, and it's skin. It's skin was teal, dark and teal. It's head had tentacles, and sharp, dangerous teeth." she paused, her breathing was faster now. "Oh Elicia, it was horrible, and ugly. I was so scared." she said, tears rolling down her pale cheeks. "It's okay Julie, it's gone now. We'll be okay." But she was wrong. A few moments later, after the girls began walking to try and find away out of the forest, the roaring began once again. Elicia looked through the trees, searching for the monster. There it was, about 400 yards away. It stared her straight in the eye, she was filled with horror, and couldn't move. "Elicia! Elicia run!"cried Julie as the monster began to charge at her. "Run! Run! Please Elicia, come on, run!!" Julie tugged at her arm, but she wouldn't budge. The monster got closer and closer, now it was 200 yards away. "Elicia! Elicia! Elicia please!!" Julie voice began to fade, and Elicia's vision slowly went too. Then all of it was gone. That's when she woke up to the bright morning sun shining in her window. The nightmare was over.
