"Mark?" Alex asked. "Did you sleep here?"
Mark looked up. His eyes were red. He looked like he had been wrestling a bear.
"I couldn't sleep," Mark whispered. "I had a dream. A nightmare."
"What was it?" Alex asked, sitting down next to him.
"I was running," Mark said, his voice trembling. "I was running so fast. Faster than light. But... the goal... it kept moving away. And then... Kyle Walker turned into a giant cheetah."
Alex tried not to laugh. "That sounds... stressful."
"It was!" Mark yelled. "And then... then... I looked down. And I wasn't wearing my silver boots. I was wearing... clogs. Wooden clogs!"
"It was just a dream, Speed," Alex said, patting his shoulder.
"Was it?" Mark asked, staring at his feet. "Or was it a warning? From the universe?"
The door opened. Bastian walked in. He saw Mark in pyjamas.
"No," Bastian said. He turned around and walked back out.
Harry, the captain, walked in a moment later. He saw Mark.
