//------------------------------// // Chapter 6: Chase’s Night Terror // Story: A Tale of a Loving Sister: Volume 2 // by GoebelTron //------------------------------// When Chase was sleeping in his bed, he suddenly felt cold and felt something crawl onto him, but he got up and went downstairs to the kitchen for a cup of cold water. Suddenly, Sunset went over to check on him, “Chase? What are you doing out of bed?” “I‘m thirsty,” Chase said. Sunset frowned and then walked over to him and gave him a warm hug, then she got him a drink and sent him back to bed. When Chase was tucked back in bed with his cup, Sunset went back to her room and went back to sleep. After Chase finished his drink and went back to sleep, he then heard soft thunder rumbling, and then heard spooky noises and felt cold from the wind, until a dark shadowy figure crawled out from his closet and slithered into a king cobra, then formed a huge clawed hand that tried to grab him. Chase suddenly woke up in a cold sweat and felt his heart beating rapidly, until Sunset came in, “Chase, what is it?” “I felt something touch me!” Chase said in a panic. “Can you check my closet and make sure nothing’s in there?” Sunset nodded and went to look over, but saw nothing, “No monster in here. Well, Chase, looks like you were just dreaming.” Chase nodded in relief, until Sunset took Chase over to her bedroom so that he can sleep with her for the rest of the night. After she laid Chase on one side of her bed, Sunset tucked herself back in. Then, they went to sleep, and Chase felt safe and warm, but Chase kept rolling around the bed because he started to have another bad dream that he couldn’t wake up, until he accidentally shoved Sunset off the bed. She woke up from bumping on the floor and saw Chase crying in his sleep and mumbling in fear. She got back into the bed and then pulled Chase over to her for a hug to comfort him until his nightmare would calm down and that he would finally sleep. Until an hour later, Sunset got tired and Chase started to sleep peacefully, then Sunset laid him back down and then went back to sleep. The next morning, Sunset saw the sunrise shine through her window, then she saw Chase was still sleeping. She gave him a small kiss, then she gently shook him, “Chase, it’s time to wake up.” Chase started to heavily open his eyes, and then Sunset rolled her eyes and rubbed his shoulder, “Are you still tired?” Chase nodded. “I’ll give you a few more minutes,” Sunset said, then she got out of bed and tucked Chase back in, then gave him a kiss on the cheek. “I’ll check on you later,” Sunset whispered. Chase nodded and then went back to sleep. She went downstairs for a cup of coffee, “Ugh... Well, at least I got some sleep last night.” She then took a sip of her coffee and made herself a bagel with cream cheese. While she ate her bagel, Chase came down with a soft yawn, then he went to Sunset for a hug. “Do you feel better, buddy?” Sunset asked. “Mmhmm,” Chase nodded, then Sunset gave him a kiss on the top of his head and gave him the last remaining piece of her bagel. “By the way, we’re going over to The Sweet Shoppe to meet the girls for some ice cream and sweets. So when you’re done, go get dressed and brush your teeth, then we’ll go,” Sunset said. Chase nodded, until he finished his bagel slice, and went upstairs to get dressed and brush his teeth. When he came down, he took Sunset’s hand and they walked over to The Sweet Shoppe.
