Nightmare Attack
(Nightmare Begins):
    Sumi was running in the woods. It seemed like she had been running for hours. Then without warning, Sumi tripped and fell over a small pulled root of a tree. Sumi tried to get up frantically. An eerie laugh echoed through the dark tall trees. Sumi froze in terror. Then she slowly turned around.
    A tall black figure holding a sickle was coming closer. Sumi was scared frozen. Her heart was racing. She was still catching her breath. “You might as well give up! I’ll get you in the end.” the creature hissed. “Please go away! Why are you chasing?!? I haven’t done anything to you!” Sumi cried. But the monster didn’t answer. Instead, it charged at her. Sumi tried to get up but she slipped off of the tree trunk and fell back down. The creature raised up its sickle. Sumi just shut her eyes and crouched herself up. She could feel the blade getting closer.
(Nightmare Ends):
    Sumi awoke panting in a cold sweat. She had had this nightmare for two weeks now. It seemed to get worse every night. As soon as she thought about it, Sumi’s eyes filled with tears. Then she got up and walked to the car park.
Sumi sobbed hard as she knocked on the Winnebago door. The door opened wildly. “What the fuck do you want?!?” Murdoc yelled. He looked down to see a sobbing Sumi. “What are you crying for?” Murds asked. Sumi didn’t answer. Murdoc just snorted. He was about to shut the door when Sumi wailed: “Please let me stay in room tonight.” “Huh?” the bassist asked. “I keep having nightmares and I’m too scared to sleep. Please let me stay.” the girl pleaded. Murdoc’s first thought was to shut the door but there was something about her that he couldn’t refuse her. So he let her stay.
    Sumi’s nightmare saga kept going on for weeks. This was a problem. Murdoc was getting annoyed and Joey was worried. So one day, the two boys unintentionally met up. “She’s being a pain in the ass!” Murdoc said aloud. Joey looked up. “Sumi’s driving me nuts!” said he. Murdoc was shocked. This was the first time he heard Joey talk bad about Sumi. This could mean one thing. “This is serious right?” Murds asked. “What do you think?!?” Joe asked. This was serious problem. And there was only one way to fix it. Murdoc and Joey agreed to try and get Sumi to sleep.
    For eight weeks, Joe and Murds tried to get the physic girl to sleep. They tried tapes, stories, and music. Nothing worked. Finally, although Murdoc didn’t want admit, the time had come to seek help. And there was one person available.
    So one afternoon, Murdoc called Aphrodite’s Workshop. “Hello?” a young girl answered. “Iris, where’s cupid?!?” Murds hissed. “Hold on.” Iris replied. There was a long pause. Murdoc waited impatiently. “Hello, Aphrodite’s Workshop. Been in business for forty-seven years. How may I help you today?” Noizchild said when she was on the phone. “You didn’t have to say all that cupid!” Murds snapped. “What do you want Murdoc?” Noiz asked. “Just help.” he hissed. “What do you need me for?” the matchmaker asked. Murds never called Noizchild for help. In fact, he always insulted her about her business. So what could he be calling her about?
    “It’s about Sumi.” Murdoc admitted. “Sumi?” Noiz asked a little stunned. “What about her?” Murdoc explained the whole story. “Oh. Poor child.” Noiz said at last. “So help!” Murds yelled. “Just bring her by.” Noizchild said. Murds didn’t like her answer.
    Later that night, Murdoc brought Sumi over and left. The physic girl fell the matchmaker about nightmares. The more she talked, the more Sumi felt better. And soon for the first time in many, Sumi had sweet dreams.
