i didnt have to change a lot of stuff but i did end up having to change stuff that u already read. i really didnt want to but i guess thats just the way it ended up. so remember how when harrold first meets carina he starts having weird dreams? well thats wut i had to change.

so the first dream he has is rite after he first meets carina. he goes home and tries to relax but he cant stop thinkin about her but he ends up relaxing enuff to fall asleep:

Harrold suddenly found himself standing in the middle of a clearing; a dark forest lay around it. The only light was from the full moon and the many stars scattered across the night sky. The sound of footsteps and giggles penetrated the massive silence. Harrold turned to see a little girl running towards him. She looked to be around five years old; she had big, bright green eyes and dark curly hair.
“Carina?” His voice didn’t sound like his own. It sounded as though he was listening to a far off echo. Harrold took a step forward as Carina came near. She just kept running as though she hadn’t heard him. But, how could she not hear him? He was standing right there and there were no other sounds to overcome his voice.
Nevertheless, Carina kept going, looking over her shoulder repeatedly and giggling, as if she were being followed. She slowed to a stop after she had passed Harrold and turned to face him. Harrold heard her start to sing a song quietly, a familiar song. Harrold stepped closer and finally realized why it seemed so familiar. She was singing the lullaby Harrold’s mother used to sing. Harrold heard more footsteps coming from behind him. He turned and saw a little boy about the same age running towards Carina. He had soft brown eyes and dirty blonde hair, the same color as Harrold’s.
Harrold’s eyes widened as he realized what was going on. He recognized the small child from pictures in his photo albums he had at home. Carina was singing his mother’s song to him…as a child. It was little Harrold and little Carina playing together like they were best friends.
“Carina, what are we doing? It’s scary in here. I want to go back to my mommy.” Little Harrold whined.
Little Carina giggled. “It’s ok silly. Your mom taught me your favorite song so we can sing it together. Won’t that make you feel better?”
“I guess so.” Harrold replied.
“Now come on!” Carina grabbed Harrold’s hand. “I know a really good place to play!” The two of them skipped off, singing their song.
Suddenly, Harrold was falling backwards. The image of Carina and Harrold singing softly slowly fell away. All of the deep colors of the forest surrounding him melted away. He tried to move his arms, catch hold of something, or keep himself from crashing. His body would not respond.
Harrold forced his eyes shut and braced himself for impact as he fell into a pit of darkness. He was soon surrounded by it. It felt as though he had fallen into the black waters of an ocean. He felt his eyes open. The darkness pressed against them. He realized he was drowning. Carina’s voice was echoing around him. “Come on Harrold! Let’s play outside the castle!”
Then, there was a voice in his ear, as if someone was whispering to him. It wasn’t Carina’s. This voice belonged to a woman.
“Don’t worry about daddy. Everything will be fine.” Even though the words were meant to be comforting, the sound of her voice was very evil and they had the opposite effect.

the second time is after he goes all loopy at skool and he's all sick so he goes to bed:

This time, he dreamt he saw Little Carina and Harrold in a big field. They were far away from him. Carina told Harrold to sit down on the ground, he obeyed. Carina then put her hands on top of Harrold’s head. After a couple seconds, he fell backwards and Carina disappeared into thin air.
Harrold started to run over to where Little Harrold was laying. As he was running, the grass started to grow taller and taller. It was soon over Harrold’s head and he couldn’t find his way out. A fearsome growling sound made Harrold stop in his tracks. He was flooded with fear. He could hear the rustling of something moving somewhere in the tall grass. Suddenly, the sound of a little boy crying filled the air.
Harrold heard the thing stop and change directions, trying to find the source of the crying. Now it was coming towards him. He could hear its feet pounding on the ground as it ran. Harrold turned and ran in the opposite direction. It was no use. He could hear the thing advancing on him. Harrold looked over his shoulder and saw something with huge teeth flying towards his face.

and the last time is after he gets hit by a truck:

Harrold was back in the dark forest with Carina and Little Harrold giggling and singing. Harrold looked around, puzzled. Suddenly, Carina stopped. She whipped her head around, her eyes filled with horror. Harrold wondered what was going on. He wanted more than anything to go comfort her, but he knew she wouldn’t react. Some part of his mind knew this was a dream. Carina seemed to be looking past him. Harrold looked behind him to see what it was that was frightening her.
Two massive creatures were racing towards Carina and Harrold, they moved like humans and had the same sort of shape, but something about them made Harrold think they weren’t human at all. They both had their spidery fingers wrapped around a weapon of some sort.
Carina turned back to Little Harrold, who hadn’t seen the things yet. “Harrold you follow that path, I just have to tie my shoe.” Harrold obeyed and ran down the path Carina had pointed out.
“Stop or die!” One of the things yelled in a deep, booming voice. Harrold wondered what Carina would do. Her face now held a look of determination rather than fear. She held out her both her hands, her palms faced the approaching creatures.
Harrold saw her lips moving, muttering something to herself. Then, out of nowhere, the two creatures were lifted off their feet and they flew backwards, tumbling out of sight. Harrold was shocked as he turned back to Carina, to find her running into the trees. Before he could decide what to do or where to go, he heard a high pitched screeching noise coming from behind him. He turned to see a huge pick up truck barreling towards him, its headlights flashing.

and thats it the end!
