Day in a Dream

The Strongest Person in the World

Cast:

Harlo (Strongest person on earth, can control time and objects)

Sergeant (The captain of my crew, reminded me of the sergeant from Wreck it Ralph)

Mildred (Sweet lady from a shop)

It was the middle of the day. Me and my crew went on a quest. There was a tournament held at a castle with the strongest person in the world. We wanted to prove that we were the strongest. There was a large, green field in front of the castle, with some shops to my left. We came across one shop with a middle-aged woman standing out front, holding out a basket of bread.

"Hello, I'm Mildred! Would you like some bread?" she offered. Mildred was wearing a long, brown dress and a white apron, but something seemed off about her. She looked super blurry, for some reason.

Not wanting to be rude, I grabbed a piece of bread from the basket and replaced it with some coins. "Thank you!" I say.

We continue on our way to the castle. When we get there, we go up a few flights of stairs to battle.  The room was very spacious, but not too tall. The walls were maybe 6 or 7 feet tall. There was an tall, old man standing in the middle of the room. He had a long, white beard and long, white hair. "Hello. I'm Harlo, the strongest person in the world!" Next to him stood a women, a few inches shorter than him.

"We're here to prove that we're the strongest." Sergeant tells him. We begin to battle. There were two large buttons in my sight, as if I were in a video game. The left one made me do an uppercut punch, and the right one made me do a normal punch.

Not long after the fight began, more people came flooding into the room. They were all identical. They had whiskers and short, brown fur. They were also decently tall. Mole people.

After all, this quest was like the boss level, pretty much.

We continue battling, people from both sides being killed. After a few moments, Sergeant kills Harlo's wife. His face fills with rage, saying, "You killed my wife!' He begins to knock out everybody, even the mole people who are fighting by his side. I think to myself, Oh no, gotta protect Sergeant, she's gonna be his main target. So, I try to protect her but she gets knocked aside. Everybody in the room is killed besides me, who still gets knocked out.

When I wake up, Harlo is standing nearby doing something that I can't quite make out. He walks over, seeing as I'm awake now. He begins talking to me about the quest, and he decides I'm trustworthy. We look out a huge window which suddenly appeared, and all of the shops have disappeared along with the people, including Mildred. There was now an empty field replacing the shops and town center. He told me that he could add things to the world which were somewhat illusions. 

Then, he tells me that he can control time, or erase time from memories. So we go up to the balcony at the top of the castle and talk about his powers for a long while. After a few hours of talking, we become friends. 

Harlo asks me, "If you could change one thing from the past, what would it be?" I thought hard and long, and decided that I would want there to be a fifth grade talent show so I could play a song. 

"What if you WROTE the song, as well?" he asked. I nodded in agreement. We traveled back in time . 

Me and some friends were about to perform on a balcony out-looking all of my school. They kept asking what took so long, so I told them how I'm writing drum notes for my new song. They seemed ok with my answer. I changed the song from slow and soft to heavy metal. They kept checking up on me, but each time they did, I was much farther along in my notes. Harlo paused time for me a few times so it would seem like I was super talented and fast at writing notes.

When it was finally time to perform, I played the drums while my other friends just stood by me, holding other instruments. We began, and nobody could hear them because all they could hear was my voice and the drums. 

After it was over, I suggested to Harlo we delete the song from everybody's memories besides my own, so that it could be a popular original song, not just a song that a fifth grader made.

All of the crowd cheered, and I woke up from my dream.
