*Dreamscape

I jerked upright and looked around and saw that I was on a operating table and there were people around me, they had no faces and simply began clicking something as they began to pull me upright but stopped when a bell rang, and scurried away into the wall while leaving me strapped to the table.

"You will avenge me won't you?" Someone said while blind folding me since I was bound to the table.
"Who are you?" I asked while doing all that I could do not to scream since I had a fear of the dark.
"Won't you avenge your daughter and me?" The voice said while turning to a sweet feminine voice that made me fall asleep while it began to cut me slowly.

"Wake up Jack." Someone said softly while shaking me awake, and wiping something against the brow of my eye.
"I promise." I said while shaking violently while waking up slowly from that nightmare and saw that I was on the floor with Celestia holding me on her lap and in her arms while wiping away at the cold sweat that was covering my face.
"It's okay Jack, i'm here, everything is going to be better now." She said in a calming voice while she finished wiping sweat off of my face and pushed the hair out of my face so I could see.

"Did you do it?" I asked while sitting up slowly still shaking a bit as I remembered the cutting the other person did in my dream.
"Yeah, it's right here." She said while holding up a small brown bag that was neatly folded at the top.
"Go and check a motel room for us for the next month just in case." I said while getting six hundred dollars out of the bag and put it in my wallet.

"The nearest motel is the sparkling dreamz......it's across the street from the town hall." She said while looking at me worried.
"I have to go do something.......I'll meet you there." I said quickly before she could respond and walked outside while pulling out the envelope I had took from the guy I killed.

'The arrest of Officer Jack Valentine will leave more room for the operation of our drug runners and dealers, I expect you to take the position of personal carrier and make sure these orders are dropped off at the locations and time's scheduled for our runners to make their runs, If you mess up like your brother did you too will also be fed to the dogs alive for your failure.'

Here are the list of location's and times:
1.)Apple family acres ranch home, meet the client behind the barn at 10:35 p.m.
2.)Public library in the town hall at 12:45 a.m.
3.) And lastly at the new empire military base east entrance at 3:30 a.m.
After completing the deliveries come to the old refinery off of Johnson and Grand avenue to receive payment.

I looked at the list and quickly at a public bus display in time to see that it was 10 o'clock on the dot, and knew I could make it to the farm to meet this client if I hurried and didn't get lost on the way there, I looked around desperately and saw a lone taxi driver that was sitting in his car and eating what looked like a chewed up sandwich, I quickly ran over to the car and got in the back of it and sat relaxing.

"I'm on break." He said flatly while going back to eating his food.
"I can make it worth your while." I said while getting out my wallet.
"They all say that." He replied while not even looking.
"Do they all tip as well?" I asked while throwing two hundred dollars onto his lap, which made him immediately put his food down and buckle up.

"Where to?" He asked while wiping his mouth off with the collar of his shirt.
I showed him the address but not the time that was located on the paper.
"That's close by since were on the outskirts of town." He said while putting the dull taxi in motion.

"How long till we get there?" I asked while sliding out my handgun and counted only four rounds left in the clip before I put it back.
"About fifteen, maybe twenty minutes." He replied sternly while switching from paved road to a dirt road that was bumpier than a toddlers toy room.

I pulled out my 1911 and ejected the mag into my hand and felt that it was light and saw that there was only five rounds left in the clip plus the one in the chamber which I ejected and dropped the bullet onto the dirty floor of the taxi and decided to leave it on the floor of the taxi since I saw used rubbers on the ground next to it.

"We're here." The taxi driver said while seeing my gun and panicked.
"Take it easy pal, I'm not going to hurt you, It'd be better if you forget you ever saw me." I said while sliding the clip home and cocking my gun while getting out of the taxi.

He sped off in reverse after I closed the door, I glanced down at my watch and saw that it was 10:30 on the dot, and saw that there was a light moving to behind the barn and quickly decided to move over there slowly while keeping my noise down to a minimum so I could sneak up on the person.
