It was rather odd. I was minding me own business at my college campus. Just walking and listening to my iPod. Then suddenly, someone disturbed my peace. Looking over my shoulder to see who it was, I was engulfed by a bright white light.

Am I dead? I wondered. No. I can't be dead. I... I didn't feel anything.

Opening my eyes, I saw a river before me. My head hurt a little, but it was the crisp, clear air that actually caught me off-guard. My allergies... why wouldn't they killing me? I should have been plugged right up with all the pollen dancing about me. And yet, here I was, fine as could be.

The sound of water then caught my attention. Turning over, I peered into the lovely water. However, when I looked into it, I noticed another person. Looking over my shoulder, I saw... no one? Confused, I looked back in the water. Again, that person was there. After a wild game of peeking and looking for this other person, it finally hit me.

"Th-that's... me?" I pointed at myself and, as I did, the reflection mirrored me. Gasping, I squeed some. I was everything I'd ever wanted to look like. Only, how was this possible? "A dream!" I exclaimed, but then I frowned. "Reflection, how can this be a dream. It's... it's so real. I can feel the cooling breeze on my neck and the warmth of the sun's rays caress my back."

Pushing myself up, I blinked. But, when my eyes fluttered open again, I noticed I was in a dank little room. The ears that were on my head drooped down. Not only was it dark here, but it was also... creepy. Shuddering, I decided to wander about to look for someone else. However, to my surprise, I didn't run into anyone. At least, not yet.
