The Gondola (6th grade 1993)
It was a recurring dream that I started to have when was 5 and it did not stop until I was about 14. To begin with it was just me in a gondola even though I did not know what a gondola was or what Phantom was at the time. I was floating on an underground lake. There was fire all around and my mother was in a gondola ahead of me. I was really scared and I kept calling to my mother who would not come and save me. Then at the end there was always this witch who tried to kill me and through me in her pot full of fire. I kept having this dream over and over and each time it got scarier and scarier. Then I started to read Phantom of the Opera and saw the musical. About a year latter I had the same scary dream again. I was in the gondola again then I started to cry from being scared and suddenly I felt a hand on my shoulder and I looked up and it was Erik who was rowing the gondola and he told me not to be scared. Suddenly the fire disappeared and the witch was gone and it was just us on the blue underground lake. I never had the dream again, but Erik has showed up many times to save me in my dreams
