Gregor was falling. He
didn't know where or when he would hit the bottom. he clicked his tongue. Nothing. The wind was too loud. The wind quieted down a bit so he tried again. Gregor "saw"a few formations of stalagmites. He was approaching them fast.
"ARES!"a voice screamed. It sounded almost like...no. It couldn't be Henry. He died a long time ago.Gregor saw Ares swoop in and catch Henry.
"ARES NO!"Gregor shouted. Right as Gregors body was about to hit the stalagmites below he sat bolt right up in his bed panting in a cold sweat.
"Gregor is everything alright sweety?" Gregor's mom asked sympathetically.
"Yeah mom,everything's fine."he replied in a scratchy voice.
"another bad dream?"
"Yeah"
"Well try and get back to sleep it 2:45 and you have your first day of school tomorrow and it's at your new school."
"Okay."
"Goodnight."
"Goodnight."
"Mom?"
"Yes?"
"Don't call me sweety anymore I'm 14"
Grace chuckled.
"We'll see about that.Sweety."
