a high pitched alarm sounding as

             though the bonfire had set off every


             smoke alarm in the street. It was

             deafening.

             Gary woke with a start and threw back


             the duvet.

                     “Thank goodness that was a


             dream!” he breathed.

                     But, strangely, the high pitched


             beeping sound was still there. He lay

             still for a second and then sat bolt


             upright. Was he still dreaming?

                     Gary shot out of bed. It didn’t


             make sense. What was that sound?  It

             had only been a dream hadn’t it?

             Reaching the bedroom door he pulled


             it back and out on the landing the

             horrible sound was even louder.

                                                                  52
