Shocktober for Peter

PETER: (calls for help)

Oleg... help!

 

OLEG: (runs to Peter)

What's wrong Peter, and why are you lying in Cuddly Bear's bed?

 

PETER: (totally upset)

It's... it was... so scary.

I saw myself standing at the Magic Portal.

I opened the door and... and... there was Scout.

But... it wasn't him. It was... it was... black... and... and... it had no face... and...

 

OLEG:

Wait a minute, Peter. Take three deep breaths.

Nothing's wrong. It was a dream.

Coincidentally, the same kind of dream your best friend Scout had.

 

Paddy told me about his dream.

You and Scout talk about Halloween so often that you start dreaming about it.

But why are you lying in Cuddly Bear's bed?

 

PETER:

I was playing with him and I got tired... and... and... then I fell asleep.

 

OLEG:

Come here Peter (hugs him) let's have a cup of hot chocolate. I'm going to introduce you to a good friend of mine and Paddy's. He's a 'Heer van Stand' and he's also coming to live with Mummy Marian.

 

PETER:

Is he an old bear like you and Paddy?

 

OLEG:

We're not old, Peter, but we are older and wiser.

Come with me and we'll go and meet Olli B. Bommel...
