ASTRO BOY 2

By Hibbzy

Chapter 1 - The Nightmare

Astro was walking through a purple maze, coming to dead ends everywhere. Creepy voices were whispering 'get him, get him' over and over again. He finally found his way out of the maze and saw his dad, mum, brother and sister infront of him. They were glaring at him with stern faces. He started to back off but there was no way of escaping as his family walked towards him angrily. Astro backed off even more but he bashed into a wall behind him. They came closer, closer and closer still, until they reached out to grab him...

"Ah!" Astro screamed as he woke up from his terrible nightmare.

His dad came rushing in with Amy. They had heard him scream. Astro had a white face and his eyes wide and scared, and he was breathing in deeply.

"Astro. What's wrong?" asked Tenma (Astro's Dad).

"Nightmare." Astro replied, still breathing in deeply.

"Is it, still the same one?"

"Yes."

Astro had, had this nightmare several times before, and it never changed. Tenma took Astro to the living room to get him to calm down. After a few minutes, Astro's face had turned back to it's normal colour and he was breathing normally again.

"Are you ok now?" asked Amy.

"I'm fine." replied Astro.
