    Trapped Suddenly‚ I realize that I am trapped in a nightmare. Standing in the doorway of a building‚ a rush of damp‚ misty air hits me. I study the open door and walk forward. The door slams shut behind me‚ locking me in. The air rings with a loud metallic bang as the door hits its frame. I turn to see the rattling door seal itself.
