When I woke up for the first time, I remember seeing a glass of water and falling back asleep.534Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡX1dHpidTMe

I dreamed of the day my dad died.534Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqaEHUT487o
534Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGMJyJjjQg9
We drove to the beach that morning. I was eight years old and dad said that he wanted to take me out to do something fun and I had happily said the beach.534Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXqPpRD92uw
534Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUem3vniGHN
"Hey Daddy?" I asked while we were getting out of the car.534Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbbpd6PBKay
534Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡiPFqIwsRSq
"What is it?"534Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡoTpHX5XsQd
534Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡF0w5RGoTjQ
"Do you think you can swim really far out with me? I wanna see what it feels like not to be able to touch the ground! Please!?"534Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡf13yyYP06Q
534Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1bWHBV5LUg
"I guess but you have to promise to be careful. Okay?"534Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGq4yNP04my
534Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡuV4FMV7ads
"Yay! Thank you! Thank you sooo much Daddy!"534Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYKwBMzPNyB
534Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAzkvixr3dv
We parked the car and hoped out. There wasn't a lot of people at the beach that day. Just a few families.534Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGpbvBxQVhZ
534Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8o55imop19
"Come on Daddy! Let's go!" I yelled pulling him into the water.534Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBMBbUysAFA
534Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxU0ESUvlrZ
He dropped our stuff and walked into the water with me. We swam for a while and I decided I was ready to go deeper. He swam next to me until we got to a point where he couldn't touch.534Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2ilqFrDAz2
534Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ37ZuIxlHf2
"Is this far enough, Ai?" He asked me.534Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡg7h3CZNVil
534Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0LJpgitUic
I nodded. I felt so awesome to be the same height as him. I felt so tall! Suddenly, something latched onto my foot. It felt really sharp and painful latch itself onto my foot. I started to scream but was cut off by being pulled under the water. I looked down and saw what I thought at the time was the worlds biggest fish biting my ankle. I tried to swim away and saw Dad swimming down towards me.534Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEJIxHQZvwI
534Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5i7JRbJcVz
I was starting to run out of breath. Dad pried the fishes mouth open and pushed me towards the surface. Unfortunately the fish had found new prey, his hand. Dad was pulled deeper and deeper into the water. That was the last I ever saw of dad and the reason I'm terrified of water.534Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQEsMSX7RAA
534Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTULJuyLcVx
I woke up, back to reality. I was string up at what looked like a whit roof, but after what I've been through it could've been Heaven. Too bad it was just a hospital. I looked around and saw that I was hooked to some machines. I looked to my left and saw flowers.534Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡoOvTiLoWmz
534Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3As9aY0nfa
A woman walked into the room and looked at me for a second.534Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnes2iOfV7o
534Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWpll17rA9M
"Good morning, Ai," she said walking over to the machines. She checked the machines and then looked back at me. "It looks like your doing well. Do you have any questions?"534Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOxPgcn61Ac
534Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdN3cM1T8xj
"Only three," I said. "Where am I, what happened, and how long was I out for?"534Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNLjNXfAZW6
534Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkzydhALXTd
"You are in a hospital that was nearby your house. You've been out for a week." She have me a sympathetic look. "And as for what happened. I don't think your ready for that." She switched on the TV. "Just press this button if you need anything okay?" She pointed to a small button on the counter next to me.534Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8BhnQhkvrx
534Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBLY1ZCm8M6
"...there was said to be one survivor," the TV said. "After running into her house in an attempt to save her family, Ai Hope was said to be the only survivor of the fire."534Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpy9myWCJMa
534Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡM2FDZ9jWFV
Every memory came back to me. I looked up to the TV and saw a video of the fire playing on the screen. My heart started to beat faster. I ripped the iv out of my arm and ran into the bathroom. I pulled the hospital gown off and saw all the burn marks on my body. The fire had also singed the tips of my hair. The only place that wasn't touched by the fire was my face. I looked on my right shoulder and saw the handprint mark that my mom had left on me.534Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzpUnLMTKja
534Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3JsBh66lGj
I pulled the hospital gown back on and walked slowly to the bed I had been asleep on for the past week. I laid down and felt a year fall down my cheek. All of the burn marks on my body started to burn. Something also stung that hadn't bothered me in a while. The scar from being bitten from that big fish all those years ago. Now I had two great fears that were completely the opposite of one another. I was terrified of both fire and water.534Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxLmUtWadIT
534Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsA9oqvlQ0j
Over the next few day, people came on and out of the room. I didn't really care what they did. I just looked out the window at the sky. I didn't eat much, didn't drink much, didn't do much. Four days passed by without me noticing.534Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKNz26eL36o
534Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYEo9FYj9Go
I fell asleep that last night.534Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡA0ZrzcBinP
534Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgl0Fm7ihAX
"Hello there," said a voice I didn't know.534Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡU3LUk2lgYe
534Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwr8FAp5OJ3
I opened my eyes and saw that I was in the middle of a fire. I screamed louder than I'd ever screamed before.534Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtHRxPWlusI
534Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQVkwp2I2iC
"Help! Help! Please make it stop!"534Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡouxu8eNsdS
534Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfSRLJ9MexW
Suddenly I was sinking in water. I tried to scream for help but when I opened my mouth it filled with water. I struggled and tried to swim. For some reason, I couldn't swim. I could only go down.534Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡa0NE8Mnj4r
534Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMJ9O9En3iZ
Then I was in a whit room. Not the hospital room. I wasn't sure if it was even a room. White just went on and on for what looked like miles.534Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIPGsg7cPZs
534Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡb4mM9TwRZL
"So you're afraid of both fire and water? Weird. Normally people who are afraid of water find comfort in the warmth of fire. And people who are afraid of fire find comfort in the coolness of water. You will be a powerful one," The voice I didn't know said again.534Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvQLGXLVcus
534Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzDfKmkv08G
I looked around but saw nothing.534Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlzuMhyEFuc
534Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbVm6U1j3QW
"Uh, down here."534Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQ3DHKNnZAa
534Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfeyEvW6vOm
I looked down and saw a small white snake sitting in front of me.534Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBBseIdVM9D
534Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJUZz7yjuPK
"This is a dream right?" I asked the snake.534Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTHceGyl2S1
534Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsZHLT92tZD
"No, no, no, my friend. This is real. It is made from a dream but it's all real."534Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvM7gvXrT9h
534Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡj4l3KVugCF
"Okay. That doesn't make sense."534Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUdzTysOz0w
534Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡaYSnDm3YME
"It will in time. But first I would like to ask you a question. Do you want to live a new life? A life in a world where you can conquer your fears? Where everything you thought was fake is made real?"534Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWjEa9bFFcA
534Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡyxLCbcSJez
"That would be great and all, but..."534Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlV3GdvIzzB
534Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2jaNZ2AoXT
"Good!" The snake interrupted. "Then let's get going."534Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡa5hS7Lo1qG
534Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhuZe6r7pZl
"Going? To where?"534Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFkiZlsh5Jg
534Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRIAaqyK1oQ
"To Dreamland of course!"534Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDRByyRt5ZD
534Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvLAJPc3EyB
A door appeared in the middle of the "room". I followed the little white snake through the door. We were standing on air.534Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRXtRXLnRGh
534Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEz3JNmJG4z
"This is Dreamland. Here you can live a new life and conquer your fears. I'm going to give you a tour of Dreamland, but after that your on your own. Our first stop is the guild. This is where I will drop you off and where you can start your new life in Dreamland."534Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYsoozxKVg5
534Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUkMzw8bHT6
I looked down at a large colorful building. It looked like something you'd see in a fairy tale. It had bubbles coming in and out of the chimney. Some of them had people riding on rope of them. At one point, I think I saw lightning strike the building.534Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9IMmL3o1i2
534Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdOVzP220fT
"You will also be able to master your powers here."534Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡg45zFfsnvT
534Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpnQSrVWEqj
"Powers?"534Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrZmuds2LcC
534Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIwrrvG56eF
"Yes. Each person who enters Dreamland is given powers based on their fears. Your powers will be fire and water. Almost nobody in Dreamland has two powers. Actually there are only a few. The only reason you have two is because you fear fire and water both equally. Not many people have fears as great as yours."534Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7SEpbaN9gC
534Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgcwxe5NURG
Controlling fire and water? This was an amazing yet terrifying dream. The very thought of being near fire or water made me shudder.534Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgjdmY5xPs9
534Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4nhUsVj1zz
"This is no dream," the snake said suddenly interrupting my thoughts.534Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkya3qhS5GO
534Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJEdf1JegDe
"Can you read my mind?"534Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡd6IEmuSp5M
534Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡleawmFR5B7
"Yes. And I have proof that this is no dream." The snake suddenly bit onto my leg. I felt a stinging pain in my leg.534Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡATYE9hVbQA
534Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ36vzsrjhmh
"Okay! Okay! You've proved your point! This isn't a dream! I get that!"534Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCc8T0jyAyV
534Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9Z7R11cGGq
He let go. I looked at my leg and saw a small line of blood drip down my leg. This really wasn't a dream.534Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxxu8eJBG0V
534Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEsqIhlRjT5
"Good. Now let's continue with our tour."534Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdlzU2QY4yc
534Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHIrnQyes2S
He took me around the entire world of Dreamland. I saw things I thought would never exist. I saw mythical animals, people who weren't human, and what I was most amazed by was how backwards thing were here. Waterfalls that fell up, grass that grew upside down, and things like that.534Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡksLDWFzDP0
534Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡngAte3MJki
"Are you ready to go live your new life? After this you can never go back to your life on earth. Are you sure you don't want me to take you back now?" The snake asked.534Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7TTuzJ9xWY
534Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYbnxeVfOJg
"Positive!"534Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡu9QriPBYpC
534Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡC6gHGy4yMz
"Good. And my name isn't the snake, by the way, it's Fie. It was nice meeting you Miss Hope. Have a good life in Dreamland!"534Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEsWpuUc0Ql
534Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzlYMi1BReY
I started to fall but landed on one of the giant bubbles I saw earlier. It slowly carried me down to the guild."534Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYUFfmGjSZe
534Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ50dNU8Dyes
"And Ai!" Fie yelled. "I forgot to tell you one thing!"534Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ097BUnuy5u
534Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡU3CX0pTOUt
"What!?"534Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ05WuMmZTSP
534Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡy5gCpfb0Gh
"Live!"534Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7rGzj2CZBA
