NightScape: The Hooded One

  Let us begin with an introduction of this realm. The NightScape is the monicker that I've given to the world of nightmares. As we fall asleep, there are 3 places we go to: the DreamScape, the NightScape, and the Void. The Void is where no dreaming occurs whatsoever. However, the majority of my life, I've spent in the NightScape. It's almost as if I've been cursed to remain in this place. Allow me to tell you the first of these horrific memories.

I was in my kindergarten class, just having a typical day. Doing show and tell, and playing on the computers, all good stuff. The teacher then tells us that we are going on a field trip to the theaters. Not only was it a theater, it was also on a campground, so that meant all the students had separate cabins. In almost no time, we were already sitting on the buses. I got stuck sitting behind this one annoying girl who wouldn't stop looking behind her seat and talking to me. I tried my best to ignore her, but she was the loudest one on the bus. It felt like an eternity before we finally pulled up to the theater. This theater building was huge! I was staring out the bus window just gazing at the size of the building, it had to be at least over 1,000 feet high. As my eyes continued to look around, I saw the dozens of cabins. They were all situated in one long row. We were them called off the buses, so I got up and walked off the bus along with the other students. Once I got off, I was still looking at the building. I felt an eerie silence. That's odd, it was pretty loud a second ago because of all the kids, but the second I turned around, nobody was there. No teachers, no students, no bus. I was completely alone. My eyes darted everywhere looking for somebody. Rest assured, I did see somebody. A man with a white hoodie, and black pants appeared from behind one of the cabins at the far end. He had no face, it was just a pitch black void in his hood. After looking at him for at least 10 seconds, he then slowly reveals a machete from behind his back. My eyes widened, and I immediately dashed towards the cabins. Of course they were all locked. The hooded man was making his way towards me. I finally found one cabin with an unlocked door; it was the cabin my elementary school crush had, her name was Ashley. She was confused as to why I was freaking out. I frantically told her there was a man chasing me with a big knife (as I didn't know what it was at the time). She then told me to just sit down and relax. So I did. I sat there on the couch for at least a minute or so watching tv with her. Then, the hooded man busts down the door by kicking it, and throws his blade at Ashley, then rushed toward me. Then I awake from a nightmare that I'm glad was just that; a nightmare.
