3. Madi's Nightmare


I am running, crashing through the bush, they are getting closer and closer.  My breathing is hard and fast.  Suddenly a branch leaps into my path, as I duck beneath it my foot tangles with the vines growing across the forest floor. I hit the ground hard.  Discouraged but not ready to give up, I clamber towards the bright light shining through the thinning trees. The clearing only meters away, whatever it is behind me is gaining speed and momentum.  My Mum stopped the car suddenly as I let out a scream.  “It’s okay honey it was just a dream.”
