Finders Keepers
“The events of the previous day had left him physically and mentally exhausted. Tousled and groggy he sat up in bed and tried to catch at the elusive remnants of the dream that had woken him. It was a dream he’d had many times before. The one he’d named ’The Chase’.
In ’The Chase’ Danny always found himself running over an endless plain towards a tall tower on the horizon. If he could only reach the tower he’d be safe, but he never could. Panting and gasping, he’d run as hard as he could, and al...most be there… and the tower would move. Even as he reached out his hand to touch it, the tower would recede into the distance and he’d have to run faster and further. And all the time something fearful was chasing him. Danny never found out what the fearful thing was, but it was always there, breathing down his neck and filling him with unspeakable panic. He’d wake up just as it reached him.
As usual after the dream, Danny’s mouth was dry and bitter, but this time his heart was not racing as hard as it sometimes did, for in this dream there had been something different, something hopeful.MoreLess
