In the mids of the pitch black place I heard a scream so loud its echoes made cracks in the darkness, dim light descended and so I woke from the pleasant dream... "Pleasant..? Was it really?" - the first thought that I had before fully opening my eyes. That question, however, remained unanswered as my attention was swiftly redirected to the place that served as my bed. "It's snowing? What in the world.. is going on..?" - I muttered as I slowly got on my feet. And when I got a better look around there was only snow as far as the eye could see. It came down faster than rain, forming a snowy mist and it showed no sign of stopping. I had no idea where this place was and more importantly how I got here but one thing's for sure - it was a total shift from the picture in my dream. After giving it some thought one explanation would be that I must have collapsed and probably hit my head. "Ha..ye..that must be it." - I said out loud in a way to calm myself. This would explain why I can't remember anything before the awakening. However it did not make me worry as much as the fact that I had been lying in the cold for “God” who knows how long and I felt no pain anywhere and I didn't feel cold at all. Yes, as if the dream never ended.

"The scream!" – I remembered. There was definitely a scream it was what woke me up in the first place. "HELLO?? IS THERE ANYBODY HERE ??!" - I shouted. No response...nobody..and nothing. Such a familiar feeling, so familiar in fact that it gave me the impression that the black colour never left the scenery. But then I heard it - the sound of snow being crushed when someone sets foot on it.It was faint but it was real. I couldn't figure out the direction it was coming from but I could certainly tell it was getting closer.The strange thing was - I wasn't scared. Not only that but I was thrilled to find out there was somebody else here or.. something. "Show yourself!" - I said loudly as excitement got the better of me. For a moment the sound went numb again but this time it didn't last for long.

"So, my friend, where do we go from here ?"
