Jacob put down the phone. And sat down on his bed. It is already noon. He got back up and grabbed his jacket and went outside to take a walk. Jacob walked through the front door of the hotel and got blinded by the sun immediately. After his vision cleared Jacob vision started switching between the dream he had and what it is now. sweating bullets Jacob continued on.

70 hours 34 minutes

As Jacob started walking he found himself at the 7/11. he proceeded walking in. "Hello" the person at the register said to Jacob. All he did was reply with a silent nod.

Jacob just continued down a aisle when got to a fridge filled with Arizona ice tea he opened it and grabbed one then proceeded to the register.

The cashier rung the drink up and Jacob payed for it. Then left

Jacob continue down the road carrying the Arizona with him

As he was walking the sky started turning gray.

eventually Jacob was greeted by a park so he walked into it and sat down on a old looking bench sipping his drink. Jacob looked at the dead trees thinking it's almost winter then Jacob closed his eyes thinking 'what happened?' then passing out.

68 hours 32 minutes

waking up from hearing someone scream for help. Jacob jolted up looking for what was happening. He finds some person stealing a lady's perse with her kids near by.

"should I help?" Jacob asked him self.

he didn't know so he flipped a coin.

head - help

tails - walk away

landed head 'damn hate risking my well being for a random' Jacob proceeded to run to the robber . Thief saw him almost immediately. The mugger started to pull out a .357 magnum.

Jacob started hoping to himself 'the coin has spoken.'

while 2 meters from the mugger he didn't stop. But suddenly a loud bang sounds off. and smoke coming from the magnum . all Jacob heard was loud ringing. But that Doesn't stop Jacob all he felt was a hot liquid from his right shoulder but he only had one thought. gotta help.

1 meter from the mugger another bang was heard Jacob started feeling stinging pain while slowing down but didn't stop.

The lady was mortified while her kid was going ballistic.

While the thief was thinking that the person in front of him is a strait lunatic. And before he knew what hit him a fist was coming towards his face.

The mugger hit the ground so hard he physicaly bounced. but there was also another sound of Jacob hitting face first into the dirt while siren's blared in the distance, everything getting darker and quieter he was doing his best to hold on but doesn't know for how long he can. memories started flashing in his mind the time he woke to news reports running to the parking lot, going to the 7/11,the monsters,and waking up again.

Jacob started getting confused 'why can't I remember before the dream'. Jacobs breathing fastened. 'why can't I....WHY CAN'T I REMEMBER'. He started to feel like he is going crazy. Then blackness no sound just silence.

...........................................

1 hour 18 minutes

Jacob groggily got up from a cushioned surface, why is everything so bright he tried to rub his eyes but a IV drip prevented that. Jacob took the needle out. he always hated needles so having to take it out of your own arm gave him goose bumps.

Jacob got up from the hospital bed already figuring he's in a hospital.

when he got up a striking pain hit him in the waist. sitting back down to ease the pain. "doctor, nurse" he called no response he tried again still nothing. 'damn'. Jacob got up again this time using the IV drip as a cane.

Jacob limped his way towards the door.opening he leaned on it's frame to look out to find no one.

Jacob cautiously moved down the hall useing the drip. until he got to a window looking outside he sees a crowd of people standing in front of a pedestal.

The thing was is, what the thing on the pedestal was until he recognized what it was it's the creature in his dream, that's when he looked at the sky futuristic ships where there covering the sky to the horizon.
