jasonandrewI have started the second to last chapter today.
Strictly speaking this chapter isn't needed for the resolution of the plot. I could go from Fifteen to Seventeen without there being plot holes.
I gave some serious thought to removing it. However, I think it is important for the protagonists to return from the dreamlands and see the consequences of failure. Sometimes you need to see why you fight.
WIP behind the cut.
Chapter Sixteen: Devil May Care
Sleep had never come as easy as his first night back in his real bed, curled up with his mother’s blanket. Travis entered his son’s bedroom equipped with a steaming cup of coffee and a newspaper folded under his arm. He shook the bed with his foot. “Time to get up, Dylan. We have a big day saving the world today.”
“Can’t we save the world tomorrow?” Dylan peeked his head out from the covers, looked at his Ty Conrad alarm clock. The plastic figurine kicked into the air, revealing a digital read-out on his foot. “It’s not even eight.”
