My Nightmare
Frozen. The air around me was cold. It was hard to breathe, with my heart pounding in my ears. I collapsed to the ground. My knees buckled beneath me. My arms were scratched up and bleeding. My shirt seemed to be okay, however my jeans were torn up. After running for miles through bushes, thorns, and tree branches, my body seemed worn out.
I sat in silence. The wind was calm, yet I could feel it push my hair around my face. The full moon was the only source of light in the dark and deserted forest. Then I heard howls, coming from a distance. Maybe wolves howling at the sky, or it could be the wind against the trees. Wait…the wind had faded, it had died down. I could no longer feel the winds presence against my chilled body. Everything had gone quite, the silence was killing me.
A circle of clouds suddenly surrounded the moon when I looked up at the stars, then the forest became black. I saw two blood red eyes looking at me through the darkness. Then pearly white fangs shot out at me. I gasped…and then woke up.
My nightmare…was real. The proof was on my neck.

Plane
There was this weird weightless feeling looming over me. It felt as if I was frozen in time. I felt like I was falling, and yet, I was flying. The airplane engine was noisy and there was a persistently screaming child, sitting in front of me. At moments, it was as if we were going to come crashing down. I had asked several times for the lady behind me, on her cell phone, to please shut up. She ignored me and continued talking. I stayed in my seat, with my seat belt tightened, and a ‘Snack Mix’ in my hand. I kept eating the mini pretzels and cheddar bits, however there was still food in the tiny silver bag.
I had asked the flight attendant for some water but she never gave it to me. I was sitting in a row of three, alone. The flight didn't have many people on it at all. In fact, it was mostly empty. I had noticed that one of the ladies on the plane had a tattoo of an angel on her right ankle. There was no angel that could save her now.
Suddenly the plane went crashing down towards the ground. I smiled. I had been dead for many years...was another plane crash going to hurt?

Closet
Dead silence. Everything around me felt eerie. Black sky. Outside the moon hid behind the clouds. I could feel a presence surround me, even though I was secluded deep within my room. Most kids wouldn't be caught dead hiding in their closet at night. Oh, not me. I loved being scared.
I pulled my knees up to my chin. I wanted to see a ghost. I worshiped the dead. I craved nightmares. And then, just then, I saw it. Two glowing green eyes...staring. I smiled to myself. I had finally awoken a creature of the night.
Was this a creature? Or was this a spirit, threatening my life? I reached up for the light, and what was revealed to me will haunt me for the rest of my life. I was looking at a mirror...
