Silence sat up in a bright field of flowers. He could not remember having fallen asleep here, but none the less here he was. The sun was shining bright, the flowers were in full bloom, and birds sang gaily in the sky. Indeed Silence could not remember having ever felt more at peace than he was right now. A small rabbit, a baby raccoon, and an effeminate skunk crawled through the flowers and poked their adorable heads over Silence's leg. Silence felt his heart swell with joy at the sight of the three woodland critters.
That rabbit worked up his courage first. "My name is Paul. I'm a Bunny!"
Silence laughed at the delightfully innocent rabbit, oh how he laughed.
The baby raccoon followed next, emboldened by his rabbity friend. "My names Stuart, don't mess with me or I'll cut you!" His tough guy deceleration was ruined as he tried to stand on his back paws and promptly fell over.
Again Silence laughed. The baby raccoon looked up and began to laugh alongside the gentle giant.
The two small critters turned and began to call for their third friend, the skunk, to come out and introduce himself too. Finally after much heckling and badgering the shy little skunk stood up and looked at Silence.
"Hi there, my name is Flanagan. I'm really shy."
Overwhelmed by the cuteness of the little skunk, Silence suddenly burst into tears of joy. Fearing for their new found friend, the three animals helped Silence dry his tears. Then hand in hand they skipped off through the flowery meadow.
The Voice sat bolt upright in his bead, sweat coursing down his brow. He'd just awoken from a terrible nightmare. He could not remember, nor did he want to remember, all the details. He coughed deeply and glared at the bottle of Robitussin next to his bed.
"Blasted cough medicine."
