All he could hear was screaming. Jack shot straight up in bed. It was just a dream. They had been happening a lot lately. His parents assumed that it was just because of his love of horror, but he wasn't so convinced. Jack looked at his clock. 6:47. His alarm was going to go off at 7:00 so he decided to just get up.
