Arthur felt briefly amazed at the view as he scanned the water around him. This dream was extraordinary. Simply just amazing. He nearly forgot his goal when he witnessed the vast size of the factory beneath him. He saw sunlight! Perhaps that would be the way out of this dream.

He started to swim directly towards the sunlight when he spotted the large ship that was approaching. He had never seen a boat before except through the television, and that could not compare to the sheer size of the vessel before him. He knew he did not have long before he ran out of air, and he definitely was not the strongest swimmer which only served to increase the urgency.

[i]Why was he afraid of drowning even though this was just a dream?[/i]

If he died he might wake up right? What if he did not? He started swimming towards the surface. He did not want to test out his limits in this dream. If he drowned he might start having a nightmare and that would not do. He became surprised as something swam past him and he saw a flash of red cloth. Whatever it was, it was small, but even small things could be scary. Like that cat for example. He could not allow himself to be distracted by anything.

Arthur had to swim for the surface. Now.
