Nightmare rolled onto his back, looking out of the cave he was in, staring out into the vast expance of inky blackness, stars occasionally revealing themselves to him. His eyes half-open, scenes played in his mind as he slowly drifted off to sleep, but they didn't stop. These scenes played and replayed in his mind, causing him to yelp in pain, toss and turn, and howl with fright. Rolling about in the cave, none could see him, save for the faint light that shone off his coat from the stars. He was practically screaming with terror as he lived up to his name once again...
Running, always running... He glances back and can only see more of the horrible darkness, but he knows they're there, waiting for him to stop, to slow down... He runs faster, his lungs screaming for air, each breath more painful than the last as he tries to outrun them. He knows, deep down, that he'll never be able to, but he has to try...
Everything goes black as he hits the ground, his lungs about to burst.
He is now in a meadow in springtime, his pups running around, playing as only pups can... Then they come. He fights them as hard as he can, but it isn't enough. One gets away and with three shots of his gun, he ends the lives of those closest to Nightmare. Something within him snaps as he lunges at the man, teeth bared as he pushes him over, jaws clamping down on his throte. A small pop is heard as his teeth peirce the juggular, ending the man's life. He then turns to the other man, a wild look in his eyes that could only be pure, utter hatred. He jumps at the man, his teeth and muzzle already wet with human blood as he leaps at the man, quickly ending his life witha snap of his jaws. He turns to look at his family, but they are gone, he howls once, a sad, lonely, hate-filled sound.
Everything goes black.
Nightmare wakes up shivering and very cold, his dreams still in his head, playing over and over... He looks out into the stars, wondering if his family is up there, looking down on him... The tast of blood is still in his mouth as he whimpers and lays down, watching the night sky...
