The Blood Hound
Madalena let a little laughter out when Josh delivered the description of his dream. "That sounds like a good dream," she admitted, still leaning against the door, "I'd like to have that dream. Gingerbread is disgusting."
Her turn? She sighed.
"Did you ever watch that weird holomovie, 'the never-ending story'?" she asked, "it's about this place that's threatened to be removed by something called the Nothing, and some kid has to save the magical lands from it. They say there's a book too, but I've never read it."
With her shoulders ever slightly hunched, she finally walked out of the bathroom. She wanted to drink. She needed to drink, her throat was parched. There would probably be water in the fridge.
"I dreamed that something similar to that was coming after me. But it was pitch black instead of gray, and I couldn't run fast enough."
They were in the kitchen. Madalena grabbed a water bottle out of the fridge and drained it. She wanted more.
"And then there was this... Girl? Woman? She was there, and she was standing between me and that Nothing-thing," she said before pausing to drain another water bottle. It cleared her head a little. She felt slightly less worse, "But she didn't look... Like she was made out of the same stuff we are. She looked like she was made out of different colors of marble, but there were cracks all over her, like if I threw a pebble or something on her, she'd shatter and break easier than glass. And she was still standing between me and the Nothing-thing, and it looked like she was holding it back. And then..."
Madalena sighed. It sounded so silly. "And then she looked at me, and she had eyes like mine, but they were glowing much harder. She turned back to the black stuff and suddenly I was scared, I was terrified. Not from the nothing-thing, but for the girl. That's when I started screaming in the dream."
