"Jesus is the only card I have left to play, but with that Card, I'll win the game." - Travis Allen 1981-99, Class of 2000, Auburn Adventist Academy

note: I was trying to come up with a drabble, and I thought I could do one on nightmares. Then I thought tons of people write ones on nightmares, how could I have a unique point of view in just 100 words? Then I wrote this :P

Nightmare

"No!"

The shout shattered the night, and Jim had his gun in his hand before he was fully awake.

"Stop!"

Jim listened.

One heartbeat.

Racing.

Damn! Another nightmare.

"Don't do that!"

Jim put the gun away, and went to wake his roommate.

"Chief. Wake up. You're dreaming."

Bleary eyes cracked open.

"Jim."

"It's me. Wanna talk about it?"

Blair started to laugh.

"Sandburg!"

Blair kept laughing, but got out, "I'm sorry. It's just, there were no psychos, no kidnapping, no drugs, just plain old 'I'm teaching class and realize I'm naked and everybody laughs' kinda dream.

Jim started to laugh.
