Holding hands Terry and Feneela ran towards the bed as fast as their legs could carry them, as they ran they heard the shadow shouting getting closer behind them. They both jumped the last short distance t into the bed, Terry into the top bunk, Feneela into the bottom. Terry closed his eyes and grabbed Octie. It was all very quiet. After a few moments Terry dared to open his eyes, it was very dark. Then he could just make out the shape of the bedroom window. Terry felt for the small torch he kept under his pillow. He switched it on and shone it around the room. He was back in his bedroom, he shone the torch into the bottom bunk, little Tim was there, fast a sleep. Terry lay back in his bed he really was back home and safe, he hugged Octie. Terry suddenly sat up in his bed, he just had a thought, he looked at Octie straight into those big round eyes. "Perhaps it had all been a dream." he said holding Octie at arms length. Octie looked back at Terry and winked one of his big round eyes. Octie then lifted up one of his long arms to show Terry. Clutched tightly in the end of Octies arm, was a large, very beautiful magnolia flower. | |||
