Title: Nightmare

Warnings: horror(?); my own feeble(very feeble) attempt at comedy

Notes:  Answer to the horror challenge on tenipuri500.  Please ignore the woman behind the curtain.  Stupid things come out of her when she answers her own challenges.  --;;;

Running.  He was running, always running, forever running, yet he never seemed to get anywhere.  Casting glances behind himself, he couldn't see his pursuer, but he knew that they were still there, waiting in the shadows to creep up on him when he least expected it.  He could just keep running and hope that something would somehow change, that he would find a way to escape. 

He could hear the laughter ringing in his ears, that arrogant chuckle which haunted his steps as he ran through the misty darkness that encompassed all.  It was gaining on him, would soon be upon him.  He had to think of something to do to escape, before it was too late.

A glaring flash of purple was in front of him, and his escape was cut off.  Throwing an arm over his face to protect his eyes from the bright light, he squinted, peering at the monster in front of him.  It just stood there, a smirk on its face, twirling its hair around a finger, chuckling.  "Nfu."

Jerking awake, Kajimoto panted harshly, the cold sweat of night terrors making his skin clammy.  Damn Hanamura-sensei for making him play doubles with that boy, Mizuki, from St. Rudolph.  He hadn't had a decent night of sleep ever since that match.
