64th of Spring, 514 AV
“What the petch?”
The sky was a deep shade of maroon, a colour Vinn admired with such intensity. She loved colour in general, but the colour of maroon or a dark teal gave her gooseflesh. She was a colourful character, though she proved in not showing it all the time. It was a gift, yet a curse and she was just fine with accepting that.
She had remembered falling asleep, surprising given the huge amounts of exhaustion that had pulsed through her veins and arteries before she dozed off. Her pillow was hard, she remembered that, and her bed wasn’t much of a comfort either.
“I need ta ge’a new pillow, that’s for sure,” she said, watching the clouds around her. They were shifting colours, changing from a strange aqua to a vibrant blood red, continuously until a vivid light green decided to join the party. Soon pink was involved until all the colours of the rainbow plus more were involved.
“What the petch is going on here?”
She was sitting on the ground, grass flowing in the mild breeze that caressed the back of her neck and sent her short and messy hair flying around. She blinked rapidly, witnessing the colours of the clouds change yet again. They transformed into a nasty black, much like her sore toe, for she had jammed it into a door only a few days ago.
It was the pillow, she knew that much for sure. The pillow must have been causing these strange dreams, because soon it started to rain and heavily.
She sprung up like she had just been bitten in the rear by an animal with fangs and dashed in terms of finding any form of shelter. Upon running like the maniac she was, she came across a small cave, its entrance resembling much like the maw of a dangerous creature.
She was hesitant at first to walk inside, but once the sound of crashing thunder and the sight of flashes of yellow were both heard and seen, she obliged. Once she had stepped through, she as welcomed with the sight of stalactites and stalagmites that littered the space of the cave.
She couldn’t help but smile. There was possibly another adventure waiting for her with this cave! She could see through the darkness, as surprisingly as that seemed. Vinn was able to see that the cave continued on, growing larger and larger as her vision progressed further down.
She was tempted to follow it. Besides, what’s the worst that could happen? This was a dream after all, right?
