Volcano

April 20, 2020 | Ohio | 60-69 years

A volcano was erupting nearby, and my husband and I heard reports that a panther was loose in the neighborhood. We were on the second floor of the house and we could see the glow of the lava through the windows, when we heard a commotion downstairs. We put a bookcase on top of a dresser and climbed to the top of the bookcase, bringing a dog along with us (we do not currently have a dog). We were all three perched on the very narrow top of the bookcase when a large blonde woman burst into the room. She had the panther tied up, but she told us she was going to untie it because it wouldn't hurt her. She did untie it, it immediately killed her, and then it started to try to find a way up to where we were perched to get at us. The dog was shaking, and I was trying to calm it, while keeping my balance and watching the panther. I could see the glow of the erupting lava getting closer and closer to the house through the windows of the room. That's when I woke up.
