Sleepy watched as Doc placed a metallic helmet on his head, it was connected to a machine with a TV on top of it. It was his new invention, a machine that can project other peoples dreams

"Hey Doc, is this really necessary..?" Sleepy asked the intelligent dwarf, starting to have second thoughts, Doc looked at Sleepy with an assuring smile "Of course! How else could we see your dreams in this machine?" Doc stated, making a point

"Well.. uh.. Why'd you pick me for this anyway? Apart from the fact that I always sleep..." Sleepy asked "Well it's because you might have the sweetest dreams of us all! I figured that you oversleep because of how heavenly your dreams are" Doc thought and plugged it to an outlet

"I don't know Doc.." Sleepy took off the helmet "Maybe you shouldn't test this on me.. Yes, I may have the sweetest dreams but... I also get chaotic nightmares..." Sleepy said hesitantly "Don't worry about it Sleepy" Doc said while putting the helmet back at his head "You'll be fine. Plus, I can talk to you on the microphone attached to the machine. I just need to see if my invention works" Doc assured

"Are you sure Doc? Coz I don't know if I could sleep because of the past nightmares I ha--" Sleepy fell asleep in the middle of his sentence, Doc walked to the machine, he pushed some buttons and clicked the switches, the bulb on both the TV and the helmet flicked green, it means that the machine had connected it's power to the helmet. Doc wrote a check mark on his checklist

Sleepy appeared in the TV screen, he looked around curiously, Doc checked another box, he then took the microphone and tapped it "Hello? Sleepy, can you hear me?" Doc asked as soon as he knew that the microphone works, Sleepy stared beyond the sky "Doc? Where are you?" Sleepy asked, Doc checked another box on his list "Sleepy, I'm back here at the cottage. You're dreaming, just take a stroll around" Doc ordered, Sleepy nodded and gave him a thumbs up, he started to wander around in his dreamland

------

Sleepy felt like he was walking on clouds, Suddenly, it started raining pillows, Sleepy felt relaxed and let his body fall backwards, he fell on the soft ground with fluffy pillows surrounding him, but a small figure caught his attention "Mr. Hicklepips!" He said happily and excitedly ran to his sleeping buddy

As he was inches away, Mr. Hicklepips started to somehow shake, Sleepy started to walked slower in confusion, then the small before toy turned big and terrifying with 6 extra heads that belonged to his friends, their eyes were glowing yellow and they all have sharp teeth, It formed into a horrendous monster

"M-Mr. Hicklepips..?" Sleepy asked with fear in his eyes as he started to back away, The monster who was formerly known as Mr. Hicklepips roared terrifyingly as he charged to Sleepy, Sleepy screamed in fear as he immediately ran away while the monster chased him

------

Doc watched in terror as his friend was being chased by the horrific mutant, he felt himself shaking and was in the state of fear as he stared intently on the screen, he saw Sleepy trip while looking at the monster with eyes filled with fear, the monster growled and it was ready to devour him, Doc dropped his checklist and slowly backed away in fear, but as the monster was about to devour the terrified dwarf.. The screen turned chippy and made a 'bzzzzzzzt' sound

Doc snapped back to reality and glanced at Sleepy who was shivering violently on his bed in fear, Doc quickly rushed to the poor dwarf and patted his back as he tried to comfort him "I'm so sorry Sleepy..." He apologized, thinking that it was his fault "No need to apologize Doc.. At least we know that your invention works!" Sleepy moved to the bright side and smiled at him warmly, Doc sat beside Sleepy and chuckled

"Heh.. I guess now I need to find a solution to sleep.. I think that nightmare will give me one of my own.." Doc stated
