Dream

"Save us! Someone, please save us," some voices shouted as they were being pulled away bonded in chains by a huge brown wolf with two huge horns and a pair of black wings.

There was a forest near the place where the voices sounded, birds were chirping happily in the forest making it lively, it was as if the birds could not hear the sounds of people screaming nor could they see the wolf dragging the people in chains, which would scare a lot of people, suddenly the leaves in it rusted, the trees swayed and the birds stopped chirping, the atmosphere became hot, slowly it became unbearable, unbearable for anything to survive in it, the trees caught fire cause of the temperature, and the birds were instantly burned to ashes before they could attempt to fly away.

Everything burnt to ashes in the blink of an eye, if the ground was able to burn it would have also caught fire, the once green lively forest had now become a barren land burnt to ashes, nothing living in it was able to escape all were burnt.

Because it was burnt, everything over a mile distance was now visible, in the distance, a blazing figure was approaching at a terrific speed, it seems to have heard the cries of the voices calling out for help earlier and was coming to save them, one could associate the mysterious change in temperature and the burning of the forest to the ground to the approaching figure.

The figure got closer and closer until its real appearance showed, what was seen in the distance was just its silhouette, its real form was a huge white wolf blazing in blue fire, it was at least three meters tall than the first wolf, it also had a horn, there were runes on its body that were glowing, two white wings were on its out-stretched on its back, the wings on its back were surprisingly not on fire, it was as if they had a mind of their own, the wolf despite this appearance looked beautiful, not hideous as a most huge wolf would look.

The blazing wolf got closer and closer to the other wolf, as it was a step away from it, it was thrown away by an invisible force landing on its back, the blazing wolf got up angrily and ran again towards the other wolf only to be thrown away by the invisible force once again.

This time the white wolf was enraged, it stood on its hind legs, howling loudly, the runes on its body became brighter, the blue fire was replaced with a red one before gradually changing to purple, its wings also caught fire, its horn grew taller, the wolf itself grew larger a little, its eyes also became bloodshot.

During the transformation of the white wolf, the other wolf which was about to kill the people he was dragging, finally turned around, and looked at the blazing wolf in a gloating manner, seeing this the white wolf was even more enraged, it rushed forward only to be thrown away by the invisible force, the blazing wolf got up, rushed forward only to be thrown away by the force again, it tried and tried but was thrown away all the time.

The other wolf watched as the blazing was trying to go past the invisible barrier entertainingly, finally, it got boring, turned around to the people, and started to slaughter them brutally.

The blazing wolf could only look in despair as the people were being massacred by the brown wolf, the white wolf looked on, it could not get angry, it could only blame itself for being too weak and unable to pass through the barrier, its purple flames gradually retracted, changed back to blue, the runes on its body also stopped glowing, slowly vanished, the blue fire gradually changed back to red and it's wings were retracted into its back, the horns grew smaller and smaller until it disappeared, the fire on its body also disappeared, its body also grew smaller until it was the size of the brown wolf, it looked on as the brown wolf slew the people.

Finally, the brown wolf was done with the slaughter, it turned back, looked at the white wolf in the distance, walking slowly towards it and grabbed its neck, looking into the white wolf's eyes that were brimming with tears.

"Do you know why you couldn't pass through the barrier? That's because you are too weak," the brown wolf surprisingly spoke in the human language as it looked at the white wolf it held by its neck.

"Because of your weakness, you're going to die by my hands."

Immediately, it extended its long claws, thrusting it into the chest of the white wolf, removing its heart.

In a room, a teenager woke up with a start, and gasped in a lot of air before she screamed, the teenager subconsciously touched her chest to feel her heart, she had been having this dream on her birthdays, today was her eighteen birthday and was no exceptions.

Footsteps could be heard, two people rushed into the room, one was a man in his late forties, the other was a woman in her mid-forties, they both rushed into the room with worried expressions.

"What wrong Emily, are you having that dream again," the woman asked worriedly.

"Yes mum, but this time it's even clearer, am scared," Emily replied.

The woman sighed, sitting down by her side, she caressed her hair, "don't worry everything would be alright."

Emily nodded hugging her mother, before allowing her to tuck her into her blanket, going back to sleep.

Her mother sighed, patting her head, soon Emily fell asleep, after making sure her daughter was asleep, the woman stood slowly, leaving the room with her husband.

-------

Get up sis, we are going to be late for school," a voice shouted into Emily's ear, it was her younger brother Harry, a very mischievous boy, who likes to trouble his older sister.

Emily turned around, mumbling words inaudible to Harry, seeing this Harry's lips curled up into a smile.

"Sis, James is here to see you, he's waiting for you downstairs," he shouted into her ears.

"What did you just say! James is here to see me? Te....e...l he am not at home," Emily as she jumped out of her bed, holding her brother's hand tightly.

Harry rolled his eyes at Emily, "we are running late for school, go get ready or I will leave without you," he threatened.

Emily looked at her brother in confusion, it was then it dawned on her that she had been tricked, why the hell had she not thought about it, "what the hell, how dare you trick me, you dare threaten to leave me behind, you dare do that, you'll see what I'll do to you," she fumed in rage.

Harry shook his head at his sister's behavior, shaking his head once again he ran out of the room laughing, "it seems like you like James, anyway, try me, am going to leave you behind," he said while running out of the room.

Emily exploded in anger, "what the f*** did you just say, you dare say it again," she yelled loudly, but alas it was too late, Harry was already out of the room.

When Emily realized that Harry was out of the room she sighed in relief, he was such a nuisance and a little rascal, who tried to irritate her at all given chance, thinking of this she smiled, got up to prepare for school.

Downstairs in the dining room, Harry was eating his breakfast with their parents, hearing sounds of footsteps, he looked up only to see his sister coming downstairs to the dining room clad in black, she had got ready for school.

Alice, Emily's mother who was also having her breakfast looked up to see her daughter who had got ready For school, "dear how was your night, hope you didn't have that dream again," she asked with a concerned tone.

"Yes mum, I didn't have the dream again, if not for some blockhead who came to wake me up I would still be asleep by now," she replied.

Harry glanced at his elder sister, before silently continuing with his meal, he wanted to give a sarcastic reply but stopped due to the glare he received from his father, he knew he would be scolded if he did so.

Soon the family finished their meal, and Emily and Harry stood up, bidding their parents farewell before departing for school.

In the car that Harry and Emily were in on their way to school, Harry was driving the car as he chatted with his sister happily, it was as if they do not have any beef between them earlier.

"Sister today's your birthday day, you didn't have that dream right?" Harry suddenly asked.

Emily sighed, "I had the dream, this time it was more terrifying, in the past years have been having the dream, everything was always blurry, but this time it was as clear as day," she replied.

"Don't worry sis, I believe you'll soon stop having that dream," he consoled his sister.

They shifted from the topic and discussed to school, Harry drove to the parking lot, getting down from the car he was surrounded by his friends, he then bade his sister farewell before disappearing with his friends.

Emily sighed, turning around, she was going to her class, she did not know why she didn't see any of her friends, on the norm she would have seen them and they would then chat to class, but today was different she couldn't see any of them anywhere, so she was surprised, she looked around searching for them but couldn't find them, downcast she went to the class disappointedly.
