Ashley slowly opened her eyes and found herself looking at a dark sky. She immediately sat up and looked around her. She was in the middle of a burning forest.
'Where am I? How did I get here?' she thought to herself. She stood up to look for an exit but failed to see one. The fire surrounded her while the screams and cries continued.
"Please stop!"
"Don't burn us."
"We did nothing wrong."
The screams, shout and cries of people filled the forest with fire. She couldn't see them, but she could feel their agony as the fire burned their flesh up to their bones. Ashley crouched down and covered her ears as tears fell from her closed eyes.
'Stop…' She thought to herself.
Her eyes opened again, but she saw the familiar picture of her canopy. She immediately sat up, and the wet towel on her forehead fell. Her face is full of sweat as she catches her breath in deeply.
'It was just a bad dream. But it felt so real.'
