Max flinches for a second then reacts and gets a little scared
Max: no, no, no, no, no!! This has to be a dream this cant be real........and even so ive heard it takes an hour to gain control of your sleep!! I dont sleep that long!!!
Everybody is staring at max. Max looks around sarcastically laughs and walks away. He heads toward his houseand opens the door. Everything is there like it was never touched
Max:this is way to weird
Hellen: tell me about
Max jumps and right away reaches for his gun thats not there, only to realize that it was his sister. He lets out a sigh of relief
Max: you have no idea how happy i am to see you
Hellen: same for you, so what did it give you
Max: wait, what?
Hellen: what power did the dreameater give you?
Max: youre the real Hellen?!! No not my sister-
Hellen: listen this is my fault youre in this
Max: you had nothing to do with this-
Hellen: i put sleeping medicine in you food
He looks at her than he sits down
Max: why?
Hellen: because i know you never got any sleep and i just wanted to do you a favor, but now that favor can get you killed
Max: how so?
Hellen turns on the tv
Tv: there have been these strange sitings-
Hellen: it may be a dream but it still runs like the real world
Tv: poeple on fire but arent burning, immense strength that can lift a car with ease, its like every supervillain has decided to visit new york
Max turns off the tv
Max: so what if we bump into one of them?
Hellen: youll know
Max: how come i didnt know you were in it?
Hellen: because i saw you first. Thats the catch if i see a dreamer first than he wont know if im a dream, or a dreamer, which can give me the element of surprise
Max: wait so youre telling me the dreameater purposely does this so cops can find bodies in the morning?
Hellen nods
Hellen: so you didnt tell me what you defense is
Max holds his hand out and it starts sparking
Hellen: right lighning, well i have this...
She immediately dissapears in front of max
Max: where did you go?
Hellen: behind you
He looks back and she teleports in front of him again
Max: this is crazy
Hellen: no its not and we have to get out of here because this place is way to vulnerable, pack your stuff, were going to my place
They drive to a nice big looking house and then park there in front
Hellen: not a word to my husband
Max: hes not your husband hes just a dream
Hellen: yeah but even so they act like real humans, so we cant say anything or else he could be the reason we die tonight, understand?
Max: ......yeah......
They both walk inside the house
Hellen: honey! Im home!!
Allen: so soon?
Hellen: yeah i got off early and look who came to visit
He walks out of the living room
Allen: well if it isnt maxwell
Max: max is fine.....
Allen: oh, alright "max" why are you here visiting, if you dont mind me asking
Hellen: actually he has a case he needs to work on and we live close to it so i figured why not, hes my brother and we havent seen him in a while so he could stay until his case is finished
Allen: ok, enjoy your stay max
Max:(sarcastically) gee thanks
Max goes upstairs
Hellen: max wait ill show you too your room
Max: does that matter if we attempt to sleep in the dreameater we die, we cant do anything here, ANYTHING!! All those rumors are true, we arent safe, and all we did was pass by an hour, we still have 11 more to go! Tell me what are we gonna do!?
Hellen: lay low and wait for time to be up
Max: even if we do survive i cant stand here doing nothing while people die. I dont think the dreameater is going to select goody two shoes people like us. Some of them are bound to be very, very bad people.
Hellen: it doesnt matter if we stay like this we'll be safe
Max looks at her than gos upstairs
Hellen: mason get me a glass of water
Mason: yes ma'm
He smirks. Max is in his room along with the papers he brought along. "Sandra Harrison, Sandra Harrison"he thought then he looked over something. She was dead there, but the night before he had seen her at the diner talking with betsy.
(Flashback)
Sandra and betsy are talking then laugh and look at max. Max waves at them. They both look at eachother and laugh. Max takes a sip of his coffee and heads over.Max: hey, whats so funny?
Betsy: well me and this fine young lady were having a talk, and she-
Sandra: when are you gonna propose?
Max: soon.....
Sandra: how soon?
Max: soon enough
Sandra: you always say that.....
Max: how about this, lets go home and ill make you dinner?
Sandra: spaghetti?
Max: you know it
They go to the house and then max gets ready to make spaghetti
Sandra: im gonna take a nap while you make the spaghettis, ok, so wake me when its done?
Max: yeah, uhm for sure, y-yeah
Sandra: max i know what youre thinking
Max: you do?!?!?
Sandra: yeah and i just want to say you can go at the pace you want, ill be patient, ok?
Max: oh, uhm, yeah ok, ill wake you
She gives him a kiss and she goes in the room. He digs in his pocket and takes out a box with a ring in it. An hour later hes done with dinner. Max sighs and looks at the box than go's in the room. He sees her on the bed, than he goes to her
Max: sandra? Sandra wake up dinner's ready.......
Max starts shaking her
Max: sandra?! Sandra!!!
(Flasback end)
"Sandra Harrison" the name that people thought was horrible. The one name that made max happy. The name that now, cant even be in his dreams anymore, its just a memory.
What a great welcome to dreameater.Max:(thinking) pssh! Whatever......
