Jacob slowly opened his eyes. The ground beneath his back felt wet as he sat up. All around him was a familiar darkness.
"You have to be joking. This again?"
Slowly, the water below him turned rough as something walked towards him. It was the white skull of his old friend, Skelly. Jacob didn't know what it was, but their presence felt much more threatening. He stood up and raised his chin confidently. No fear was being portrayed in his eyes as he stared into the lightless sockets of Skelly.
"Missed me that much, huh?"
"Indeed. It has been quite some time, my prince."
The voice echoing from the skull made Jacob shiver.
"Yah, it sure has been. Well, if you're here that means you came to give me another philosophical lecture. Am I right?"
Skelly seemed to hesitate.
"Not necessarily."
"Well, why are you invading my dreams then? And how come you never invade Maria's dreams?"
Weirdly, it looked as if the skeleton was upset from Jacob's comment.
