A large monster with red scaly skin was holding a woman. Her hair was brown. She screamed as she tried to escape. But, the grip was too tight and the drop was too long. She turned around and yelled run. She stared with her green eyes. The monster brought her closer to their mouth.
"No!" Arthur screamed, wakening himself. He heard moans. The lights in the room snapped on. The light created more moans. He brought his legs up to his head and began to cry in his lap.
"Arthur," A woman said, her voice full of concern. It sounded like a whisper.
"She's dead," Arthur said. A hand touched Arthur's back and he looked up. He saw his mother sitting next to him and his father in front of him. They both had brown hair and dark green eyes. Arthur had brown hair like them. But, his eyes were a lighter green.
Arthur's mother rapped her arms around him and brought him closer. "It's okay," She said, trying to comfort him.
"The nightmares are back." Arthur said.
"I'll make him something to keep him from having nightmares." His father said.
"That nightmare again." A boy moaned
"Can I get my own room? I need sleep." Another boy whined.
"You're being selfish. You should be trying to help your brother instead of complaining." His mother said.
"Why? It's the same dream every time." A boy complained. His mother was about to give him a lecture when his father came in.
"Here," He said as he handed the bottle of purple liquid.
"This isn't the right one." His mother said.
"We ran out." His father said
"But-"
"It will help him sleep." His father said. Arthur drank the purple liquid and laid down. The lights turned off and Arthur fell asleep.
