Chapter 7: Dream or Reality

Paolo opened the lights and saw the fan flying in front of him. He again saw the pictures in his dream on the fan. He and his friends were falling. Then suddenly, a blinding light appeared out of nowhere. Paolo could not open his eyes, then, darkness.

"What happened?"

Paolo waited for his eyes to adjust to the darkness. He could not believe what he is seeing.

"A...Am I...inside my dream?"

The place is exactly like the cave in his dreams. He looked up and saw the hole they fell into. He looked around hoping to find his friends. Then he saw Francis lying near a boulder.

"Hey Francis! What happened? Hey wake up!"

"Paolo? What are you doing in my room? Let me go back to sleep!"

When he heard what Francis said, he felt something wrong. He looked around for the others. He saw Ramch by an opening, large enough for someone as large as himself to crawl into.

"Ramch, wake up! Ramch!"

"What's the matter Paolo? By the way, what are you doing inside our house? Who let you in? And why is it so dark!"

"Oh my God, it was not just me."

"What are you talking about?"

"It's a long story. Help me find the others."

"Others? Who are these others anyway?"

"In my dream, there was me, you, Francis, Rjadz, Raffy, Pinggoy, Addison, Joed, and Jessie."

"So, where are they...where are we?"

"We were traveling in a forest and some wolves chased us. We found this cave and we went inside. Then Francis said he saw a lake inside this cave and we followed him to look at it. Then we fell from up there. And now we are here, down below."

"I should be saying that you're crazy but due to the fact that I'm here and not in my room in a matter of seconds, I believe you."

"Thank you; now help me find the others."
