Wake Me Up! Oh, Please WAKE. ME. UP.

Disclaimer: I don't own Inception, Christoper Nolan does. Any characters I create are from my mind and mine alone.

Summary: "Ariadne…Mal don't you hurt her," Dom screams. "Why won't I wake up?" I can still hear her screams after all this time…

Chapter 1: The Nightmare or is it a Dream…

"Ariadne…Mal don't you hurt her!"

"Why won't I wake up?"

Dom wakes up in a cold sweat. 'Why I am dreaming about this again? That was 7 years ago and I still can't get the look of panic on Ariadne's face out of my head when Mal stabbed her on the bridge. I finally moved on and I dream about that moment; Ariadne…'


Paris…

Ariadne is working for a well known architecture firm since she's graduated from college. Things have not been the same since the Fischer inception when she and her merry band of men pulled off 7 years ago. She thinks about the team from time to time and wonders what they're up to these days, especially Cobb. She can finally admit after all this time that she's fallen in love with The Extractor and contemplates if she should go and see him.

'Get a hold of yourself, Ari. Dom is finally happy with his kids and you would just be a reminder of his past if you show up at his door.'

Someone knocks at her townhouse door and to her surprise it's Arthur. It's been at least 5 years since she's seen him on the last job they've worked together.

"Arthur, this is an unsuspected surprise. Why don't you come in and we can catch up on the last 5 years."

"Hello Ariadne. Thank you for inviting me in." Ariadne closes the door behind Arthur after he enters her living room. They head to the couch and get comfortable and catch up with how each others lives.

"So, how's life been? Working more extraction jobs since the last one we've worked together?"

"My life's been fine and I've worked a few jobs here and there but nothing over the top since the Fischer inception. What about you? Have you been working on any extractions or are you playing it straight these days?" Arthur's intrigued and genuinely wants to know what's Ariadne's been up to for 5 years.

"I've been a good girl, nothing over the top. So why are you here?" Ariadne slips in a little joke of her own to ease some of the tension in the room.

"I'm here because Dom asked me to locate you." Arthur explains his intentions for showing up at her door unannounced.

"Dom…is there anything wrong? Why would he ask you to locate me for?" Ariadne's concern is clear as day that something bad may have happen to Dom since she's last seen him leave the airport.

"You will have to ask him…go visit him Ariadne. Dom wants to see you and I don't know why though." Arthur responses with a barely visible grin on his handsome face and a twinkle in his eye.

"Fine, I'll go see him then." Ariadne decides that it's time to face the one she's loved for some time now.
