Post-apocalyptic

Chapter 2

The man twists the cap and gulps down the liquid. "Thank you" Brooke asks, "How long have you been out?" "I don't know. Days? Weeks? Who knows?" Brooke replies, "You should rest for a bit" Waldo lays down and asks, "Can I have a blanket to?" Brooke goes to the closet and gets a comforter. She lays it on the man and says, "Get some rest, I'll see you when you wake up." Brooke leaves the room and grabs a portable radio from one of the desk and turns it on. She listens and hears sirens in the distance. She turns it off and returns to the room. Brooke stands at the windowsill and looks outside. She sees the woods and the surrounding area. Brooke asks, Why are we here? What's going on?" Waldo sits up and says, "I'm not sure, but hopefully we'll find out what's going on soon." Brooke says, "Do you know how we got here?" Waldo stands now and says, "I heard rumours that some soldiers took us in and knocked us out so we didn't know our way out." Brooke says, "Wait, knocked out? As in, you were unconscious and couldn't remember coming here and..." Waldo looks around the room and asks, "Where is here?"

Brooke replies, "I can't tell you that, it's top secret. Sorry." Waldo looks confused. Brooke says, "There's some things I'm confused about as well." Brooke asks, "Can you tell me anything else? Something...else?" Waldo sits on the edge of the bed and says, "I heard some shooting behind me before I got here, but there was a man running around here as well. Brooke asks, "A man? What did he look like?" "He was far away, I couldn't make it out." the old man replied. Brooke asks, "Where are we?" Waldo replies, "I don't know but it gives me the creeps." Brooke says, "The rumours were right. This place is creepy." Waldo says, "Have you ever heard of a place called The Nightmare Realm?" Brooke says, "No.  Brooke sits on the bed and says, "No, I haven't I haven't. It's strange that you should ask." Waldo says, "And why's that? Brooke says, "Nevermind. Where does this Nightmare Realm place us? I don't see it anywhere." Waldo says, "I forgot...to mention. This is The Nightmare Realm. The Nightmare Realm is a place in the sky where the nightmares that plague mankind are born. Brooke says, "Does it have a name?" Waldo says, "It's never been confirmed, That's why we just make up names for it. Like, The Nightmare Realm, Other Place Of Existence, or The Other Realm. Or just Realm. Brooke says, "Can we get out of here? I think we're in a nightmare now."

"Not unless we really try. Or the "soldiers" let us out." Waldo says. "I don't know. But we should really try to figure out where we are. Do you know anything about where we might be?" Brooke says, "Not really." Waldo looks disappointed. Brooke says, "I'm not sure just yet" means I don't know yet. It could be either yes or no. There's a 60/40 chance that it is yes. The man walks over to the window and looks out, then turns around and looks at Brooke. Brooke says, "What is it?" Waldo says, "Do you see that figure behind the tree?" Brooke says, "What figure?" Brooke looks closely out the window and a laser point aims at the window. Waldo says, "There's another one following him. Do something!" Brooke says, "What can we do?" The soldier points out the window and yells, "They see us! Fire! Brooke looks panicky, "But how are we going to get out of here? How are we supposed to fight those guys?" Waldo says, "We must first distract them." Brooke says, "How?" Waldo says, "With this." He pulls out his taser. Brooke asks, "What are you going to do with that?" Waldo says, "I will throw it out the window and then we make a run for it." Brooke says, "Oh come on! You're serious?" Waldo says, "Yes! Come on!" Brooke asks, "Will it work?" Waldo says, "Hopefully, It's the only thing we have!" Brooke asks, "But what if it doesn't?" Waldo says, "Then we're dead." Brooke says, "Well I guess it's all up to the soldier then. Aim well." The man throws his taser at the soldier and watches him fall to the ground. Brooke says, "Now! Run!"
