You blink your eyes open and find yourself in the desert, "Ah've go' 'and i m moth." (Translation: I've got sand in my mouth) you say outloud. You use your hands to drag the sand off your tounge but there was still small particles left.

You stop doing what you were doing when you suddenly hear a horse approaching you, the familiar sound giving you déjà vu. You stare at the man approaching on the horse and quickly hide behind a cactus- or something..

"Your late." the man says coldly as he stares at the man before him, you hadn't even noticed the man. "I had to slit a few throats but I got it." the man that was on his knees respond.

The man on the horse approaching him slowly, "Trust me my pungent friend." he says. He then starts running with his horse on a trail, which was pretty odd since its the desert. "Follow the trail!" he exclaims.

You failed to notice that you were sitting in a circle of ropes and you were too late as you feel the rope tightening around your ankle, dragging you along with the man.

In the blink of an eye you and the man (he had no idea he had dragged you with him) were standing infront of a giant sand tiger. "At last, after all my years of searching. "The Cave of Wonders!" he exclaims.

A small bird was sat on his shoulders, repeating his words, "The Cave of Wonders!"

"Remember, bring me the lamp! The lamp is mine!" the man yells, the sand tiger thing slowly opens its eyes. "Who disturbs my slumber?"

You look at the Cave of Wonders confused, bamboozled and shocked.

You blink your eyes open again and find yourself in your bed, Grim was sleeping on your stomach, specifically the part of your stomach that had Twilight's cutiemark on it.

"I think I'm goin' crazy." you nonchalantly say. You gently pick Grim up and sit up, being jumpscared immediately since one of the ghosts had appeared infront of your face.

"Hey, AJ. Why so bleary-eyed?" he asks, his friend floating up to you aswell. "You look like you've seen a ghost. Heh heh heh." he laughs at his own joke.

"Today's the last day of the fall semester. Look sharp and don't bungle the landing." the third ghost says, "Oh yeah, tomorrow's the first day of the winter holiday. Have you two decided what you'll be doing?" the.. first ghost asks.

Grim immediately woke up at that, "Huh? What's a win-ter holly-day?" he asks. "It's when school lets out for the season. Most students go home to celebrate the new year with their family. They have fancy dinners, too." the second ghost says.

Grim gasps, "Wait, there's FOOD?!" he exclaims while salivating, no like he was SERIOUSLY drooling so you had to hold him at arms length. 

"And plenty of it. Roast turkey, pie, a ham as big as your head, you name it... Not that us ghosts can eat, of course. Some ghosts head home to the netherworld to spend holidays with the family too, y'know." the ghost explains.
