Charm and Zuma ran in the field together. The sky was a soft light blue and pink clouds were seen. The smell of flowers filled their noses.

"Catch me if you can, Zuma!" Charm yelled. She ran off laughing.

"I'm coming Chawm. You better watch out!" Zuma yelled after her.

They chased each other in the grass laughing. Suddenly, Zuma tripped and stumbled over a branch into Charm.

"Oof," Charm said when she got pushed sending them both rolling down the hill.

At the bottom, they both started laughing hysterically.

"Ha! I got you Chawm!" Zuma said happily.

Charm stared at Zuma's face. I'm glad it's all happy again. Suddenly, Charm gasped. What the heck? Zuma was hurt, how is he okay now?

"What's wrong Chawm?" Zuma asked concerned.

"Y-you were hurt, r-remember?" Charm stuttered.

"Huh? I didn't know what you're talking about..." Zuma's voice faded. His eyes suddenly turned black and red, and his fur turned black. "I'm just fine Chawm. I'm fine." Dark red blood began to drip from his eyes. Charm's mouth dropped.

"Evewything's fine!" Zuma screamed sending Charm flying backwards.

"Zuma! What's wrong? What going on?" Charm's head pounded. The sky darkened to a mixture of red and blue. The wind blew crazily into a tornado. Zuma was right in the middle of it, but the wind didn't even pick him up. Instead, he just stood there and stared at her. Charm looked all around her frantically. She suddenly screamed at the top of her lungs. Zuma looked at her with the blood dripping down his cheek.

Out of nowhere, he collapsed to the floor. Everything turned black.

"Charm! Wake up! Are you okay?" Charm woke up with Rocky in her face. She realized she was gasping for air and hurried up and calmed down.

It was all just a dream.

Charm looked over at Zuma who was passed out on the sand. "I need to fix him," she suddenly said jumping up.

"Um. What happened to you? Why did you throw up blood and then pass out?" Chase asked.

"I honestly don't know," Charm said glancing at Chase. "I know I don't have a phobia of blood because I've seen blood before, and I haven't thrown up. I know I'm not scared of it."

"I wonder what it is..." Rocky said quietly.

Me too. Charm thought.
