Hey guys, thanks for all the great reviews. Really awesome. Just want to tell you that if you see a "…" it doesn't mean "etcetera; it's a line. wouldn't let me use a line, so I had to use this one. The line is a transition of the present to the past or the past to the present. Enjoy!
"So then, what happened?" Becky asked.
"Well, Uncle Cobb and her entered the dream world; I didn't know what happened there, but suddenly Uncle Cobb woke up first."
….
Arthur was sitting down on a chair, quietly monitoring the machine. Once in a while he would look at Ariadne. "I guess I'm not the youngest in the team anymore." He thought. Arthur was snapped out of his daze hearing Cobb awoke. Cobb calmy pulled the wire attaching to his arm, sat up, and looked to Ariadne, expecting she will wake soon. And she did.
Ariadne was hit with glass as her surroundings exploded. All she could remember was the exploding glass all around her… and then everything went black. Next thing she knew, she was sitting on a chair in a warehouse she's didn't remember. She woke up with a start and saw Cobb staring at her.
"It all feels real doesn't it?" Cobb asked. "Can you give us five more minutes?" he turned to Arthur.
"Five minutes? We were talking for almost an hour!" Ariadne said unbelievably.
"When you're in a dream state, you're mind slows down so time is faster there." Cobb said, "Now let's try again." Ariadne nodded and fell back to sleep.
As usual, it was a flash of white light and she back in "Paris".
…..
"Well, I didn't know what happened in there kids, but I guess your Uncle Cobb was explaining her how the dreams work." I say. "But I guess it didn't result so well because your mother woke up with a jolt."
….
"Wake me up, Cobb! Wake me up!" Ariadne was screaming as the projections swarmed and held her. Then suddenly this woman with a grey coat approached her quickly with a knife.
"Mal! No, Mal!" Cobb screamed. But it was too late. Mal stabbed Ariadne and she entered a void of darkness.
Arthur was watching the machine when Ariadne woke up with a jolt, gasping. Arthur rushed to her. "Hey, hey, you're gonna be alright okay? Just calm down."
….
"She wasn't calming down." I said.
…
Cobb woke up too. He quickly pulled off the wire and ran to the bathroom.
"That's some subconscious you got there, Cobb! She was really pretty!" Ariadne shouted.
"I see you have met Mrs. Cobb" Arthur said.
"That" Ariadne said, still recovering from the shock. "That is way too much for me. Thanks for the offer, but I would not like to be part of it." She picked up her bag and quickly went out.
….
"Did you chase after mom?" Becky asks.
"No." I said after a pause. "But I'm not done yet."
…..
Arthur watched Ariadne walk off. He wanted to call her back, but Cobb appeared behind him. "She'll come back." He said. "I'll have to get Eames."
"Eames? But he's in Mombasa, Cobol's backyard." Arthur said.
"I'll have to take the risk then."
"We could just find somebody else."
"We don't just need a "somebody else". We need a forger."
…..
"After that Uncle Cobb went to Mombasa to get Uncle Eames, and I stayed back. And you're Uncle Cobb was right. Your mom did come back." I said.
….
Arthur was preparing for Cobb and Eames's arrival. He was checking up with the machine, making sure everything was right. He wasn't a perfectionist… well maybe a little. He was checking everything up when he heard the warehouse door opened and in came Ariadne.
"I guess Cobb was right." He thought. "You came back." He said to her.
"I tried hard not to… but, it's just…" Ariadne said.
"But there's nothing quite like it."
Ariadne smiled and nodded.
"Well, maybe we could pick where we left off. Well, where you left off actually."
"Yeah, sure." Ariadne smiled.
Arthur and Ariadne went and sat on the chairs and hooked themselves to the machine. They entered the dream world and Arthur began to explain more on her job.
"So you're job here is to design the world of the dreams." Arthur said, while both of them climbed a stair. A woman dropped her papers. They walked past her as Arthur started talking again. "You can make any architecture in the dream world." They walk past by the woman again. Ariadne was puzzled. "Like the paradox stairs."
"So who was she?" Ariadne asked Arthur as they walked down the stairs.
"Who?"
"The woman who stabbed me in the dream."
"I told you; it was Mrs. Cobb. She's just a projection in Cobb's mind."
"His ex-wife?"
"No"
"They're still together?"
"No, not that. She died."
That surprised Ariadne. Arthur shrugged and continued walking. She followed him as he continued to explain more about the job.
…
Okay, I can't remember the exact lines that were said in the movie, so I'll try. I hope you enjoy the story and please review.
