It was chasing me. I had to run. I could never stop... 

"Wake up! Come on Jack wake up!" Opening my eyes slowly, I saw it. It was standing right over me. I started to scream. "Jack it's okay. It's just me, Lucy. Your sister. I won't hurt you, I just needed to make sure you were okay. I think you were having a nightmare again." 

I began to sit up cautiously, that was when I believed what it had said. It really was only my eight year old sister. She slowly walked over to my window and began to open my curtains. The sunlight beamed in, my eyes burning from the light. Lucy then walked over to me and sat on the foot of my bed. "Jack are you okay. What happened? You know Mom needs to know what these dreams are about." She said. 

I couldn't answer for two reasons. First, was the fact that I could only vaguely remember what the dream was. All I knew was that something was chasing me... And it wouldn't stop running until it got what it desired.
