[u]Sarah's dreamscape...[/u]
[i]Sarah stood in a chamber. A familiar chamber, filled with tendrils of SIVA.
She looked to the door, which was clearly open. Standing on the outside of it was Fionn. But some invisible wall was keeping him from coming in.
An explosion was fast roaring behind her and she began to panic. She tried to run toward him, but she tripped. Something was pulling her away.
She screamed as she reached toward Fionn, and her arm was outstretched as the explosion consumed her.[/i]
[u]On the Wall, 03:00 hours[/u]
Sarah woke up sweating from this nightmare. She was hyperventilating, startled by her terrors. She couldn't notice someone found her.

"Where is she?" Lunar asked, panicking.
-
Fionn looks for any trace of her.
-
"Sarah? Please?" Lunar begged.

[spoiler]end?[/spoiler]

[spoiler]yeah[/spoiler]

[i]"Kid how much acid did you take before that nap? Because that wasn't a normal f*ckin' nightmare..." A voice jokingly inquired from the foot of the wall, with a thick Texan accent lacing the words. [/i]
-
"It was for me... nightmares are the unfortunate normal," She says.
-
[i]"That's either incredible levels of 'RAWR XD' emo cringe bullshit or the honest truth. And for your generation. I hope it's the latter." [/i]
-
"My generation? Excuse me? But I'm from a different timeline. The emo meme generation was centuries ago," She said.
-
[i]"Oh good, another kiddo who's time displaced. For real though, where're you from?" [/i]
-
"I'm not a kid," Sarah says.
-
[i]"I'm forty one - If you aren't at least 34 then I call you kid, how it goes. So, what were you having a nightmare over, miss..?" [/i]
-
"You wouldn't know what I'm talking about."
-
[i]"You'd be surprised - A cowboy knows more than he lets on. What's on your mind?" [/i]
-
"I... don't want to lose Fionn. Every nightmare since I met him involved me losing him in some way.."
-
[i]"Ah shit lady, I hear you. Used to get those all the time. Some advice: Spend as long as you can with him and don't -blam!-in' let him go." [/i]
-
"I won't let him go. Ever," She replied.
-
[i]"Then there's no reason for the nightmares. If you ever feel like you're in one, just start lucid dreaming - Realize it's a dream, and bend the scenario to your will." [/i]
-
"I wish that was true... you see, sometimes when I'm asleep, I see into other timelines. Stuff that might be happening in another parallel universe. Luckily, that didn’t seem like something from a timeline. But that didn’t make it any less terrifying."
-
[i]"There's a timeline for everything. There's one with you being a servant to your man, there's one where we're in bed, there's one where your man has a star fetish, the list goes on. Enjoy your timeline - Don't dwell on others." [/i]
-
"I'll try not to."
-
[i]"Good. Now since that's out of the way - Who in san hell are 'ya?" [/i]
-
"I'm Sarah," She said.
-
[i]"JT, resident cowboy, aug dealer, and asshat at your service." [/i]
-
"You sound like an asshat so it makes since."
