Dragons : The Dragon Hunt

49. Stopover for more supplies

-Dennis POV-

-Dream Realm-

I was in a city, I looked up and saw tall buildings towered every single corner of the streets, vehicles are running and honking to each other. People are walking, talking to each other, using cellphones and other else, while I was on the center of the road. I was not noticed by the cars and the people, I turned everywhere to check the place, I am still curious where am I.

Sun shone brightly above me, I say it was noon, particularly the lunch of other people, I still didn't move from my position. Then I saw a building that towered all structures from my spot, on the topmost area, it has a pointed rod, all the parts were color gray. I did recognized it quickly, the Empire State, I am on New York, what the heck on earth am I doing here?

After several minutes, I finally crossed the other side of the road and went to the sidewalk and asked several people there. I approached one person first, he wore a heavy coat and a hat, why he would wear a hevay cost when it was noon and even sunny? That is weird for me, of course.

"Uhh, excuse me where is the way... ", I didn't finished the sentence because the man interrupts me off, he shoved me off and spoke at me. He barely looked at me.

"Get lost boy! I am in hurry! ", He bellowed shakily, as he finally ran away from me. I didn't follow him as I only stayed at my place.

"Wait, I am just askin' ", I said to the man, but he was far from me, he didn't even heard it and continued running, the crowd of people on the sidewalk prevented me from seeing the man a little, I swung me head left and right to see the man. He was still running, not as far from me, about 30 feet, I rolled my eyes away from him as I finally crossed the road again to go to the other side of the sidewalk.

Then suddenly, an explosion equivalent to 35 grenades was released, due to the powerful explosion, the energy blasted around the area and fled me away from my position very far. I crashed on a windshield of a car and didn't move for a minute, I was looking up when I saw multiple F-16 fighter planes going at a supersonic speed.

My ears was ringing, as I slowly turned to my back and saw tanks heading my direction. The crowds were shouting in panic, then a ton of men wearing military suit-like uniform had been roaming the area, one of them stood in front of me. He pointed his gun on me and I looked at him blankly, he did spoke at me when he pointed his gun to my head, I knew they were terrorists.

"Den... ", the man said, as he cocked his gun and sticked the end of the barrel on my forehead

"Den! Wake up! ", He exclaims, why does he know my name, why does he waking me up, well I'm awake. Then finally I closed my eyes shut.

"DEN!!!! ", He shouted at me, the last word I heard from him, as he finally pulled the trigger and darkness consumed me.

-Back to reality-

I finally woke up from my horrible dream, there was someone waking me, due to a sudden wake up, I put my left hand on his neck and choked him out, I panted heavily due to my horrendous dream.

"Den..... It's........ Me", He managed to talk between the choke. I narrowed my eyebrows and looked at him madly, as I finally familiarized the face of the person waking me. It was Dusty, as I finally removed my left hand from his neck and coughs hardly until he manage to spit words.
