Dream Master Nightmare: Part 2

Cy lifted the piece of wood and clumsily slotted it into place. Just in time. There was a thunderous battering and the wooden planks of the door began to vibrate.

"We must hurry, Grandfather." The girl spoke urgently but more gently. "The raiders have come, and we must flee."

The old man's voice was barely a whisper. "Yes, but to where, daughter?"

Cy nodded in agreement. He was with the grandfather on this one. Exactly where were they going toe scape to?

As if she had heard his thought, the girl looked at Cy. "Go first," she said, "and open the way through to the pigpen."

"Pigpen?" Cy stared at her stupidly. "Where is the way to the pigpen?" he asked.
