He opened his eyes.

He found himself in a familiar room. The plaid bedsheet was messy, the hardwood floor had multiple scratches and sunlight came in from the tiny window on his left. In the corner of the room, a collection of baseball cards was in complete disarray. The atmosphere seemed depressing and miserable. He rolled his eyes in every direction, then he wiped his forehead. He was sweating. He didn't understand why.

"Subject," a voice from out of nowhere said to the man on the bed, "Can you identify yourself, and your current location?"

"Uh....." the man stuttered. "M-my name i-is......John Davidson, and...." He then sat up. "....this is my bedroom..." He started rubbing his eye. "I'm back at my house...at 53 Darkside Road..."

"Excellent, subject. Now, look around you. Tell me.....if this is real."

John slowly got off the bed and walked round the room, eyeing every single object. He found a few things very intriguing: multicolored stamps, bandages and many phone charge cables. Then again, he remembered these from the real world. He smiled at himself. All of a sudden, something caught his eye. He went closer to find a piece of paper on his disorganized desk. Questionably, he picked it up and inspected it. There was nothing......nothing but a single symbol drawn in bold, black ink.

He saw the symbol Ω.

"What...is this?" he said quietly. He tried to wrap his head around it. He certainly didn't remember this from reality. He didn't recall a strange symbol being on his desk.

"Hello?" he called out. "I found something unfamiliar on my desk. I don't know what it means."

"What does this suggest, John?"

"M-maybe....I'm dreaming..."

"Excellent instinct. Now...can you identify the symbol that you found?"

John looked at the paper again. "I don't know." he replied. "It looks...Greek...." He tried to think of the Greek alphabet. He sighed, not being sure. "Okay, I'll have to guess. Is it....omega?"

"Correct." The voice, referred to as Unknown, confirmed. "Now that you know this sign, and judging by your previous deduction that you're in a dream, do you remember.....why you're here?"

John thought about it for a moment. Something came up in his head. "Is it....a do-over? I think I came....to prevent something....."

"Correct." said Unknown. "In this dream, you get the chance to do something.....something you never succeeded in doing in reality. This neurological simulation allows you to control certain events, in hopes of helping you. The symbol omega will be seen numerous times throughout the dream." There was a pause. Then Unknown continued: "In this dream, you have to save someone.....someone important to you. Do you remember who?"

John became troubled. "No." He shut his eyes and put his hands to his head, as if he was in pain. "No, I...I don't--"

"Look around. Try to familiarize yourself. It is your house."
