The waiting game

Desperate to get into the army base, Bob was crawling under the nets that they use for training and trying to squeeze under the outer wall, when all of a sudden a man whose face was partially disfigured jumped up in front of him and stabbed him in the back. He held no fear though and just as he was stabbed he found himself sitting in a cinema, watching himself in the movie taking the knife.
Bob came to in an instant, gasping for air, feeling a tingling sensation in the small of his back. He and Wiggy were waiting out the lions in a tree and he must have fallen asleep. He looked across at Wiggy who was resting quietly giving him a quizzical look. Bob had played rugby for Japan a few years earlier and he now felt the familiar sensation of being completely exhausted. Unable to sleep now his thoughts drifted and he went over what had happened so many years back.
