:: She was running down the hall of some house as the screaming of her name continued whle she ran...she looked behind her as lights continued to turn off while she ran::

:: Looking for a place to hide she dove underneath a nearby table using the table cloth as a shield ..the lights in the room turned on and she shuffled her feet closer to herself::

Come out come out where ever you are you little brat....

It will only be worse if you hide from me..

:: after a few minutes the lights turned of and she heard bottsteps slowly fade into the other room...letting out a sigh she quietly moved from out from underneath the table...and then she felt it..the fat meaty like hand on her shoulder crusted in dirt and as hairy as a monkeys hand..and that is when she screamed::

:: Back in her room in the real world she was screaming and thrashing about easily enough to wake the dead at that rate as her nightmares took over her thoughts::

Sleep, blissful sleep, eluded her for over a week now, ever since the last time she saw Jayden. She would only get about three hours at best each night, if that. So, when she heard the screams, she was wide awake and reading her book of dreams, going over the conversation she had with Bernie Sorrows the other day.He was an old soul whom she hoped to have many other conversations with. He was interesting and she would know his version of the dreamwalk.

But what had her interest now were the screams coming from Tina's room ...

Carefully setting the book down Sha'uri raced to tina's bed, sat down and
cautiously took hold of Tina's hands and tried to pin her down so she wouldn't hurt herself while trying to gently wake her up, speaking with authority to assert control through her dream.

"Tina! Tina! Wake up! You're having a nightmare! It's just a dream, Tina. YOu're safe here with me. wake up.."

She held her and tried to sooth her.

"Shh.. Tina, it's okay. YOu're safe."

:: She woke crying in her arms but after being soothed and rocked the tired girl soon fell asleep once more now feeling safe being curled up in such gentle and kind arms.::

Sha'uri stayed with her through the night and held her, stroked her hair and just did what she could to help Tina feel comfortable. It wasn't until the morning's light glowed along the horizon, just before sunrise, that she finally left Tina and headed back to her own bed. It was only then that she sat upon her bed and let tears flow. It bothered her to see the young girl have such dreams. No child should ever have such things. She was sure these weren't of typical flavor.... that it wasn't just some childhood nightmare but somethng of her past.

Wiping her tears away, her gaze went to the book she was reading and her thoughts went to Bernie again. Perhaps he could help... perhaps.
