Drake got up and looked around, he wasn't in the tent.. and Grayson was nowhere to be seen. He then began walking around which was not in his control to do. Drake realized he was in a forest, he felt cold.. weak.. injured... Hungry...

Even though he didn't know where he was or what he was doing, he could make out that he was in a forest. Redwoods. They grew nearby Poaltin.

"How did I get here so fast..? Did Grayson take me here while I was sleeping and abandoned me nearby Poaltin..? But that wouldn't explain why the world is slightly smaller.. or why everything's blurry.. or why I'm moving without wanting to.." Drake had a lot of questions on his mind for he did not know he was dreaming yet.

As the dream continued he came across a lake and looked down into it. Drake, thinking he'd just see himself in the water, but he was wrong. In the waters reflection was a dark ender monster, about three or four feet taller than his real height, a messy medium brown Mohawk that went from his forehead to down his neck, a torn ragged light brown shirt with a number code on the chest, Six long muscular black ender arms.. a small ribcage with little to no insides there mainly only being a spine and sharp blood covered ribcage bones, in the reflection there were six mesmerizing purple ender eyes above it's large mouth that spread across most of the head, blood stained the tips of the teeth for they were sharper than fresh unused blacksmith blades. It also had long ender tentacles waving back and forth from his back.

"WHAT THE FUCK THIS IS NOT WHAT I LOOK LIKE!!" Drake had a panic attack as he was hyperventilating, but in the reflection there was no movement in the mouth from his heavy breathing, instead was a scared expression.. full of fear and past aggression..

"Help me.. Help me.. Help me.. please.. somebody.. anybody.. HELP MEEEEE!!!" Drake froze with terror, that was not his voice.. As the unfamiliar voice continued to chant that, it let out an ear piercing scream came out of it. Faintly he could hear the sound of someone else.. they were calling his name, repeatedly.

"Drake.. Drake.. Drake... Drake... Drake... Drake wake up!"

Drake snapped awake, the scream ringing in his ears. He was back in the tent and Grayson was violently shaking him.

"Drake wake up!!!" Grayson continued to shake Drake around until Grayson started bitch slapping him, that's when Drake shoved Grayson away.

"Mmmmph what is it Grayson..." Drake said sleepily while rubbing his bitch slapped cheeks.

"You were having a fit in your sleep.. screaming and crying... begging for help.. are you feeling alright? I can taken you to the nearest village and get a doctor to look over you.." Grayson sat down in front of Drake with a concerned and scared expression on his face.

"I'm fine I don't need a doctor.. just.. a bad dream..." Drake avoided eye contact with Grayson as much as possible.

"...Okay.. well if you can it's your turn to take watch, I am beat" Grayson waited to see if Drake would go out and keep watch while making sure the fire doesn't go out. Drake did take the next half of the watch, Grayson cozied up in his sleeping bag, he fell asleep quickly.

Drake continued to ponder about his dream and why it felt important... He ended up staying awake for the rest of his turn until Grayson decided to get out of bed. Since Grayson was a Human, it was most likely he was gonna sleep longer.
