Cassie rubbed her eyes, trying to wipe the sleep away as she shifted her focus to determine where she was. Did I sleepwalk again? She wondered. Am I dreaming? Where am I?

She used a hand to shield her eyes from the bright light ahead. There was something there, or someone, she couldn’t be sure. “Hello?”

It was a sort of animal. A wolf, maybe? The only thing she was sure was that it’s standing on four legs. As her call echoed, it turned to her. She gasped the moment she saw its face. No, no, no, it’s impossible. It can’t be. Damian?

Before she could advance another step, it turned and walked off into the light. “Wait,” she called, her voice echoed through the forest as she started running after it but no matter how hard she tried, the light seemed to be receding farther and farther away.

“No!” She screamed as she bolted up in bed.
