five year old Hanna McCray has had a rough life the past two years, after her mother passed due to an unknown illness she was forced to live with her brother Nathan but soon ran away and moved in with her aunt Johanna Constantine her life was going...
Hanna spent as much time as possible with her new friend dream, the two could often be seen walking the dreaming or enjoying each other's company Hanna would tell him about school (mostly about how she still didn't understand math and it was second-grade math remind you), one day dream noticed Hanna wasn't her normal happy self she seemed nervous and stressed.
Morpheus's POV
Hanna and I were walking along the beach of the eternal stars a favorite spot of mine in my realm "is something wrong child" she seemed startled that I asked "it's nothing" "doesn't seem like nothing" "it's silly I don't even know why I'm worried about it". "Tell me perhaps I can ease your worries" "my auntie is going away on holiday well it's not really a holiday it's more a work holiday she's being called to Ireland for a month I asked if she had to go and she said it was mandatory". "And are you upset that you're not going with her" "a little bit but mostly because I have to stay with my brother while she's away it's stupid I know".

"Your worry isn't at all stupid after all your brother has put you through I understand your worry" "how do you know about that". "I know quite a lot about everyone who's in my realm" she looked down at the sand as she walked through the water "would it make you feel better if I said I've spoken to him". "Really how" I smiled at her briefly "oh right I forgot you're the god of dreams" "you have nothing to worry about" "I guess," she said softly "I'm afraid it's time for you to wake up now child" "ok bye bye Dream" "goodbye child".
Hanna's POV
Auntie Johanna helped me pack my suitcase for the month I'll be at my brother's place"let's see clothes medicines books what else" "blanky" "oh yes how silly of me to forget your blanky" she dropped me off at the airport in London "now do you have your passport and ticket" I nodded my head yes "alright I'll call you when I land in Ireland have fun in Australia" "bye auntie". I found my way through the Southend airport until I got to the gates "pardon me miss" "hello sweetie are you lost" "no miss I'm looking for the plane to Melbourne". "Melbourne is um right over there and your flying alone" "yes miss" "how old are you" "five my auntie would be flying with me but she's flying to Ireland" "I see".
It was a 20 hour flight in total my brother was waiting for me when I arrived "so how was the flight" "plane didn't crash" "that sucks" I rolled my eyes "so how's being a wanted felon" "I'm not a felon" "yes you are" "look I'm willing to try and make this work for a month but if you want to be a little bitch I'll let you out right here am I clear" I sighed "yes sir". When we got to his house he took my luggage bag in "you'll have the guest room upstairs there's a bathroom connected to it" "ok" "and you better come down the first time when I call you for dinner" "yes sir". After that, the rest of the month was uneventful until the day before I went back to London he wanted me to stay in Australia "I don't want to" "why not" "well first of all you hate me but yet still want me in your life to torture".
"You deserve it" "no I don't" "says who" I closed my eyes for a second, "say it," a little voice said "the Sandman" "the Sandman really, you know he doesn't exist right" "oh come on Nate let her believe what she wants" Nathan had invited some of his friends over "no she doesn't she killed my mum" "she was my mummy to Nathan" that must have done it he grabbed me by the arm "listen here you little brat mum never gave a damn about you neither did dad that's the reason you're stuck back in London". "Nathan you're hurting me" "mate you made your point put her down" "yea she isn't worth it" he let me fall to the floor I put my hand over the bruise on my arm I rushed back upstairs and threw myself into the bed only to fall into a dreamless sleep.
