I was at my grade school and there was a really mean teacher and there were two other people I didn't know with me and the teacher put us out on a ledge and there was no way off of it. All of a sudden stairs appeared. We went down the stairs and there was a truck that had skeletons in it.We all screamed and threw rocks at them and they told us they were trying to help us. Then we walked with them a while and they disappeared. We walked around the school and we saw my sister in a classroom in the basement chained to a chair. We got a hammer and broke her loose and start walking again. We heard wolves.The people with me (they were boys) suddenly had to go and took off. The wolves jumped over the fence and start attacking my sister and me. Then they start talking.My sister disappeared and the wolves tried to get me to go over to them. I tried to look for her. Then after all this time I realized my house was right next to the school. I went into the house and my mom and sister were talking on the couch and I went over and sat with them. That's the end. I was about six years old when I had this dream. |
