"... Hmm? Oh, yeah, Crimson said the same thing when he was telling me about when he got his human form," Eater replies after a quiet moment and turns his head back to her, "It went really well, I think, he was super miserable when I first got there so he wasn't going crazy trying to kill me, but we talked about life and I tried to cheer him up a bit, and now we're friends! ... Which is a good thing, because Blue stuck Crimson in my room and doesn't want to give me a new one, so we're roommates now, whether we like it or not. He told me he wants to wipe out all the Nightmares /except/ me, haha..."
... But then he pauses again, and asks, "... You don't like elevators, do you?"
'So that means he hasn't always had a human form?' Crystal thought to herself for a moment before getting back on track with the conversation at hand. She listened to Eater explain, only to look down with what was said at the end, "That's good to hear.. That it went well, I mean, not the parts like him being miserable or your room being in the basement.. why is down there your room anyway?"
Crystal then blinked at the Nightmares question about her and the elevator, "Um.. Well.. No, not really.." she replied, her usual soft expression turning into a bit of an embarrassed one.
Catch and Cataclysm both look up at Blue when he spoke, the Dreamer Prince then look to the Nightmare and gave him a small smile " you see Catty, at least you have a chance to live, I'm sure Blue and his people will take care of you like the other light Eaters "
// maybe there a way to kill Catch without his blood doing what ever it is to me? Maybe there is some way I can be a normal Nightmare and just take over my host...I don't want to be a mindlessly slave like the mutt is because of that female...I don't want to be a bug ether...and I really don't want Hiiro to eat me...// The Nightmare work his jaw, he still didn't like it, to live a life of a bug if his pride outweigh his survival instincts he would decline the offer but survival was his top priority despite the measures he have to take in doing so, " how do I know this isn't a trick? That one's the mutts cured of the me, you won't just give me over to Hiiro Or just let him kill me? "
Ethan rush over to Ai as soon as he was free, he had his gloves on but hesitated for a moment before taking the little girls hands " A-Ai are you ok?" He was still shaken, but knew what ever the two talk about had to hurt Ai.
He was looking at the young girl hands, seen mark on her poem from Scarlet's touch " Ai, I want you to look at me, what did she do? Did she hurt you?"
Everything had gone to Scarlet's plan or at least one of them...
The /final/ part of the report was on Nightmare Syndrome itself. There were warnings and a list of known symptoms a Dreamer may have; depression, excessive negative emotions, etc... One of the symptoms listed had a particular familiarity to Fiona. 'Oddly colored eyes, accompanied by an eerie glow and slit pupils.' "...I feel like I've seen that somewhere before... Elementals going rogue kinda have something like that too... Is that it...?" She couldn't quite put her finger on what she was thinking of, but she copied all the known symptoms into her diary anyways.
On went the paragraph, 'There are hundreds of theories about what Nightmare Syndrome is and what exactly it does. Some believe, because Nightmares have their former selves' memories, that they are simply evil, corrupt Dreamers. However, the disease thus far has largely remained a mystery. Individuals everywhere are putting their lives and earnings into ongoing studies and hopes for a cure. Surely, a day will come when a cure will be found. But for now, if you know a Dreamer suffering from the beginning symptoms, let them, or their Fairfin know.'
Fiona frowned at first, letting out a drawn out, quiet 'hmmmmm,' as she thought about what she just read... Once again, there was something that jumped out at her... The thought of Nightmares being evil, corrupt Dreamers. "...Nightmares are bugs..." She muttered, pausing to think hard about the first and only time she'd seen a Nightmare's true form. The Elemental put a piece together with what she'd read--she remembered Eater having a tiny sphere of light when he'd woken her up. "...They like to eat light magic, like young Nightmares do." She paused, "...And the bugs are even inside Dreamers? Because Purity puked one up? ...I still don't really trust that... Either way, they can't just be evil Dreamers, can they? The bug-things don't even LOOK like Dreamers...! Unless Dreamers have a bug form...?" Her brows furrowed as she stopped to compute that. "Wait, no, that's right... Dreamers have a different thing... It's... Uh... Yeah! It's a heart-reflection! It's sorta like an Elemental's core and it looks like a...
...A ball of light."
//And Nightmares have those big holes in their chests and /Malice literally said he didn't have a heart.///
"Oh."
Fiona went silent for a long moment. "...Nightmare Syndrome... It's... It's... Not really a disease...? It's more like... A /parasite./" She murmured to herself, intensely jotting her theories into her diary.
Afterwards, she took a deep breath, slowly put her diary and pencil aside, took the Shadow Hunter's book and closed it with a 'SLAM.' "WELL. I LEARNED A LOT. There was A LOT in this ONE BOOK." Fiona just stared at it in her hands. Then, without another thought, she shoved the book into her hair, "...I'm borrowing this."
Purity reluctantly nods her head in agreement with Crimson's comments, and sighs. "That's true... I couldn't bear to do that to her... I understand," she quietly replies, although she's still a bit hopeful, and curious as to what Crimson is thinking about, but she gets distracted when Suzano speaks up. "... Excuse me, but what do you mean, I don't have it anymore? I didn't think I was showing symptoms of it... But, no, I don't mind if you examine me, I guess that'd be a good idea after I thew up a bug the other day..." the Dreamer replies, getting quiet at the end there as she turns to the nurse.
"I am a man of my word" Blue says, "I am not a Nightmare, I don't lie or twist things. Once you're out of Catch, you'll be safe, with the other Light Eaters" he looks uncomfortable as he speaks, it was becoming harder to stay in his War Horse form.
Fiona sat there on the floor for a couple of minutes, having a very serious, mutter-filled debate with herself on what she just read...
"Is that really right, though... Are Nightmares parasites that eat Dreamers' heart-reflections? How do they even get /into/ a Dreamer? And what does that mean for bringing Weaver back...? ...I gotta figure this out." She looked at the other books spread out around her, scrutinizing their titles. The Elemental wasn't about to give up anytime soon, as she spent the next who-knows-how-long picking up books and reading through their contents on Nightmares. ...If they had any, that is.
"...There aren't even any pictures in this one..." Closing and dropping her seventh book on the stack she'd read, Fiona let out an exasperated sigh. "Aaah, c'mon... There's gotta be something here... Something about anything! It's just been the same stuff over and over... And there's still so much WEIRD stuff I don't get... Am I just missing everything?!" Her question echoed into the empty room.
She tiredly glanced down at the remaining books surrounding her... Or rather, she glared at them. //...Maybe I should take a break... I think I'm getting too frustrated.//
"I be able to run a full Tests in the lab but I can at least do a Quick examination " Suzano pulled out some tools from her bag and started to look the Dreamer over " about that by the new information we been Gathering we believe that Nightmare syndrome Is contracted either at birth or sometime as a young foun, it just dormant until a Dreamer Reaches maturity and it could stay that way because of the link between a Dreamer and Fairfin" she While taking light to To examine Purity eyes with a Special light that if she had the Nightmare syndrome it make her pupils slit but to the Dreamer it was just a Bright light.
Crimson was setting quietly as the Nurse was looking over The white Dreamer, he turned his head away a little from the flashlight Suzano had, to him it was slightly Irritation, he rubbed his bracelet and try to think on other things besides his Corruption, // she throw up her light Eater so she shouldn't have Nightmare syndrome anymore, hopefully the Nurse doesn't say that their bug's...//
but not long after the prince had though that Suzano had started to explain what it was that the Dreamer Throwed up " oh you don't know? That bug you spit up was...huh?" She Paused however when Crimson started to jump between the 'shh' Signal putting his finger to his lip and then the 'cut it' Jester crossed his neck as he had a goofy Panicked face...one the prince got her attention he Mouth ' she hates bug's'
If the Dreamer look his way he Quickly moves his hand like he was rubbing his neck and just make a goofy smile
"Shhh, you ok" Ethan coo to the little girl, " Ai your not Useless, if it wasn't for you, your brother wouldn't have any hope or reason to keep going, he wanting to do better because of you, we all want to free him and were going to do that together"
Scarlet's had planned on this to go two ways...one get the outcast sister to help her or if not, she buy time talking to the girl as As she drained her energy... and since the first did not work the blood sword would act without the girl, The ice started to crack and with Gypsy pushing buttons the Machine was turned off holding her...
One of the button Gypsy push opens the door to the room, Jason was standing outside it with a Jackhammer going at the door, he fell forward making a Squawk, thankfully his Jackhammer tuned off when he fell
Boo Squeaked what the sudden surprise then jump back, she looked at the Jason with wide eyes " you ok?"
" ugh... yeah, I think so" he push the Jackhammer off to the side and rubbed his head.
Just then the Ice burst and the blood rush over the edge
Ai nodded slowly, sniffing and wiping away her tears. She couldn't only feel pain at the moment...her hands really really hurt from touching Scarlett.
She jumped when Jason fell inside with his jackhammer.
Ai's eyes widened when Scarlett broke free, "I won't help the bad guys, I won't help bad red" she moves away from Ethan and begins to chant. Raising her arms and putting up a barrier around the room, keeping everyone inside.
Gypsy stopped pushing buttons, for a moment, her eyes widening. And then started pushing buttons again, the ones she already pushed, hoping to freeze the blood again.
(Mmm! I've heard it's pretty good. Yeah Mewtwo is overused a lot, but you know, he's the original big bad legendary, they gotta push him as hard as they can 'XP There's so many other cool legendaries though, but I see why they keep going back to Mewtwo
I just feel like poor Mew gets overshadowed so much too 'XD )
"O-oh my..." Purity simply whispers upon learning that Dreamers get Nightmare Syndrome at a young age, and stays still while the nurse gets her things to examine her. When the light is shone in her eyes, Purity tries not to squint too much, but her pupils don't slit like they would if she still had the curse on her.
She looks a bit worried when Suzano starts to bring up the bug she threw up, but it gradually turns to confusion when the nurse stops abruptly, and the Dreamer turns around to see whatever Crimson's doing... Only to see him giving her a goofy smile in return. Purity turns back to Suzano then, narrowing her eyes and biting her lip before quietly asking, "What about the bug...?"
(I know right! I'd love to see how they'd handle legendaries like Groudon, Kyogre, Dialga, and Palkia in live-action CG, man, any of them would be great!
Aaahhhh Mew would be the most adorable little thing in that live-action, I wanna see that now X'DD )
Dreamcatcher look to Blue with worry " you don't look so good " he grimaced // that right, he said that form took a lot of energy to use, I should find a way to break this dream...//
Cataclysm scrunched his nose, he was a young Nightmare and things like trust was something he didn't understand or trust but the Nightmare knew he wasn't in much Of a position it say anything...
The red Nightmare work his jaw a bit before speaking up " I'll think about it, it's not like I have much a choice Either way, I can't just walk myself out of the mutt and if you do figure out how to duplicate the vomit cure then that's that...." he got quite Thinking of his life as a bug In some Glass tank...// probably get Experiment and on like some stupid labrat...//with that though made the Nightmare think about the Origins of the cure, it didn't set well with him "but ask yourself this, why did a cure show up now after all this time? I'm sure a person like Void wouldn't had just keep something out like that...it seem a little to good to be true... but who am I to say I'm just a Nightmare looking out for my own skin but Catch Void was only out to kill me to get to you"
The Dreamer prince was thinking about how he woke from dreams before, that was until Catty spoke up with his Ominous warning, he hadn't had much time to think about that " so are you saying Void set that up?" Catty made a 'are you stupid face'" I wouldn't be surprised, but I bet it was meant for you not Purity to drink, Void is evil and this is coming from a Nightmare, he wouldn't have done that out of the goodness in his heart...he up to something Catcher"
Dreameater chuckles at Crystal's question and simply replies: "I'm a Nightmare, remember? A horrifying, heartless, dangerous monster with an insatiable appetite for the fears and sorrows of others? Why would I have an actual room to myself in a palace of super ancient, super powerful Vaseterm? I'm literally and metaphorically below them, so I get to stay in a prison cell in the basement, a cell especially designed to keep Nightmares inside." He pauses a moment to sigh and stretch his front legs out a little before he continues, turning his head now to look back at his claws, "But you know, I'm fine with that, because I'll admit, my instincts to hunt and kill are still there, I just don't embrace them anymore... But on the chance that something comes up and I go into a feeding frenzy or something, I'd hope there'd be someplace I could be locked up until I get back under control, I don't want to hurt or kill anyone else... So I'm fine with my den being a prison cell, it just means Blue's palace is my palace, heh."
Eater glance back to Crystal when she admits she isn't fond of elevators, and tries to give her some reassurance when he says, "Hey, it's alright, we'll be out of here before you know it."
Blue nodded slowly to Catch. He tried to listen to the Nightmare, but the uncomfortable feeling was only getting worse and worse by the moment. By the time the two stopped speaking, the War Horse was fidgeting, he couldn't keep this up any longer and gently set down Cataclysm on the floor, but kept a hold of Catch.
Holding the Dreamer in one hand, Blue turned him to look at his Guardian Stones, he raised his free hand and touched his finger to Catch's stones as he began to chant.
Blue was doing what Qui had done to him, in his very first vision. He was calling one of Catch's Guardian Familiars to break the vision.
(Ooh really? I wouldn't have expected that, Bulbasaur and Venusaur are pretty neat ones though! I like Tyranitar too X3
My favorite is Kyurem, specifically White Kyurem. I'm a simple girl, I like ice, I like dragons, therefore I like ice dragons 'XD But I also really like Hydreigon and Lucario too~)
I just wanted to say hi to you all and make sure you guys were doing well x) In case the news wasn't given, I've been taking a break from roleplays and most Colors stuff, which is why I haven't attended recently. But I'll be back soon!)
That's true, but Sableye and Spiritomb finally got a weakness which is good. They didn't have one before, so people would hack them in with Wonderguard ability and you couldn't kill em xD)
Jason pulled his legs in just in time as the door dropped close again, he looked up with wide eyes "OH NO!" He Scurry to his feet and started to push buttons on the Controls alongside Gypsy
But Scarlet red liquid oozed from the ice on to the floor, the blood moved across it and was going right for Ai...she was going to feed on the girl to power herself up more
Ethan seen this and Despite his fear he stepped in the way of the cursed sword, he held out his hand in chanting making a Barrier between him and Scarlet.
The blood Veered off its course, she couldn't get out with Ai's Barrier nor could she get to the girl with Ethan Barrier but Judas sister wasn't the only one Scarlet wanted to eat...
Boo Screamed as the blood rush at her, she try to run but she was in a small room and had Clumsy feet, she tripped over her paws and that when Scarlet had her pray...the little dragonite Screamed as the blood started to cover her...
Suzano had pick up on what Crimson was trying to tell her, that the Dreamer was Scared of bugs and well she Puked One up that happened to be the Nightmare in her..." oh deer... well about that, hm, I what to ask what do you think it was?" She ask instead Crimson was listening and watching quietly, that was until he felt something very familiar, his eyes widened with fear " she free" he Whispered, the Prince immediately move push the woman women out "GET OUT OF HERE! SHE FREE! SHE GOING TO BE COMING!!"
Ai knew she had to keep the barrier up, she couldn't let Scarlett get free from this room. It was her fault in the first place, she felt her heart sink as Boo screamed and Ai yelled, "Save her Gypsy!"
The chaos pixie twisted away from the buttons and held out her paws towards Boo and the blood, the familiar focused and chaos energy gathered in her paws. She then blasted it, with all the force she could muster, the floor ripped up as the beam went and hit Boo full on.
Gypsy braced herself as a chaos explosion went off in the small room...
"...Well... If I do take a break... That means I'm not gonna be /doing anything/... I can't not do anything...!" Fiona thought aloud. "Maybe... I can just focus on something else instead..." She considered her options for a moment, squinting thoughtfully as she did so. "...Like looking for stuff about ghosts...?"
In the end, she decided that was a good idea, so she stood up. However, she stopped again after that. "But... I WILL read all of these. Eventually. I still have to figure this out..." The Elemental muttered, crouching down, collecting the books she hadn't read yet, and tossing them all into her hair. "...Maybe... Maybe it'd be easier if someone looked at these with me... Or if I talked with someone who knows more about Nightmares..." As she spoke to no one in particular, she grabbed the 'already read' pile of books and shoved them back into the bookcase.
"...Wait... There was already an idea for that though, wasn't there? Yeah... We were gonna go talk to Queen Victoria... ...But that was a group plan--for Terra, Purity, maybe Catch, and me... ...I still like that plan..." She continued talking to herself.
"I-I don't know..." Purity starts to mumble, but yelps when Crimson suddenly starts shouting and trying to push her and Suzano away, which quickly gets her mind off of bugs. "What?! Who's coming?!" she exclaims, instinctively summoning her mop as if a fight's coming, but then it clicks, "It's Scarlet?!"
Catch grimaced as Blue moved him " what are you doing?" He asked nervous to the big war Horse as he put his big finger on the Dreamers chest The prince didn't know what Blue was doing but he felt something inside, it felt warm but not like the Nightmare fire in him, his Garden familiar was waking up and so was his true moon blood form, Catch started to glow as light shine from him, his hair turned silvery white, blue war paint appeared on his face, big black wings full up stars came from his back.
The light shine and gather into a Beautiful display, it form into a bright white wing lion with glowing blue eyes, he had golden armor with Intricate detailing, the lion almost had a Dreamer look to him with his main flowing of clouds and ribbons on him
"Who is that?" Catch things outloud, his starry blue eyes were Mesmerize by the familiar, something told him he knew this Creature that he belong to him but he didn't know his name
Cataclasm shrunk back from the light, he was making hissing noise, the Nightmare was Frightened of the familiar, and he was frightened of his hosts moon blood form
But then something else happened, Catch had two Gardens one of light as the other night... darkness poured from the moon blood , he clinched his teeth feeling a the fire in his chest grow hotter and Twist into the Disturbing sensation of the Nightmare fire.
"C-Catch! What are you going?!" Cataclasm being to panic as his darkness was being pulled
"I don't know what I'm doing! I was going to ask what you were doing! My chest feels like it's on fire!" Catch reply Equally as panicked
The darkness Swirled in twists around the red Nightmare, Catty was Franticly shouting, he didn't like this at all
Catch gasps as he felt a sharp pain in his chest, // CATTY!// he was about to pass out when the sounds of a Majestic lion Roar reach his ears, Shattering the dream, the last thing he seen was the lion of light and behind him the darkness were the Nightmare was...
-
Dreamcatcher gasps spitting up blood once the dream had ended, he was still in his dark form just like when the vision started, he Collapsed and fell forward
Blue watched and listened to what happened, he was calm, still uncomfortable, but calm. As he watched everything play out, he didn't answer Catch yet and just waited until the vision was finally shattered. - Blue had let go off Catch's horns, gasping sharply and falling backwards onto his back. He could tell he was in his human form, his wings quivered and his vision was blurry and almost entirely black.
He swallowed back the vomit rising in his throat and grimaced at the after taste. It caused him to cough a few times and he then took a few moments to rest and gather his thoughts.
"We...we should go over what happened" Blue says between breathes, //I don't think I've ever stayed in that form so long without the moonlight// he groans and sits up. Holding his stomach with one arm clutched tightly over it.
"That lion thing was your familiar, so was the darkness that was forming" Blue draws in a deep breath. "You are in charge of his name, when you want to call him forth, focus on him and call his name. I named my Great Wolf, Kyro, he didn't have a name before that"
"Oh..." was all Crystal said at first. She was all for safety and being cautious, but a cell in the basement seemed a little harsh... at least up until Eater admitted to having the instincts to hunt and kill things, then she understood the reasoning a bit better, but it also kind of didn't really help her uneasiness about being in the presence of said Nightmare any. Despite that though, she was at least thankful for the honesty. Before she could respond to anything else, she listened as Eater attempts to reassure her, "Yeah," Crystal laughed nervously, "I hope so."
{ you are different from your mother...you have less vampiric Nethersglade blood in you then her...your blood is Tainted!} Scarlet hiss in the little dragonite mind, Nethersglade were very Territorial Expressly the females
Boo was already Screaming because of Scarlet, she had Tears streaming down her face.
But before anyone else could do anything Gypsy Blasted a laser beam...
Explosion then set off a chain reaction of other things Exploding...
Ethan was frozen as every was blowing up around him just one though play though his mind as he watch helplessly // Boo dead...//
The little dragonite was sent flying from the blasts...
Jason Quickly hid under the desk as everything went off, " FRIENDLY FIRE! FRIENDLY FIRE!" thankfully explosion happened a lot down there so he had plenty of Fire extinguishers on hand, not only that but the Emergency sprinkler system for when fire broke out.
The blasts did send spatter the blood everywhere, but Scarlet was quickly forming back together, that was until the sprinkler system when off, water poured from the roof getting Everything wet...the blood sword Decided to take this opportunity and seep through the cracks in the floor from Gypsy beam...the blood sword would have love to feed more but between Ai, Boo and Gypsy beam she had enough
Gypsy rushed into the fires, searching for Boo, it didn't take her too long and she picked up the dragonette in her arms.
Ai meanwhile, let her barriers down, she noticed Scarlett escaping and panicked. She put her hands on top of her head and danced in place, trying to think. She looked to the broken ice and the machines.
But she wasn't accustomed to dealing with things, Ai just screamed, "ETHAN! ICE USE ICE! HOW DO I ICE! THE BLOOD IS ESCAPING!"
"YES SCARLET! WHO ELSE?!" Crimson shouted still pushing the two ladies to the door Suzano grab her bag and when to the door " but how she Being held" "DIDN'T YOU HEAR ME?! SHE FREE AND COMING! GET OUT NOW BEFORE I GO CRAZY AGAIN!!" The dragon prince was Terrified that a repeat of the morning was going to happen
Catch would have love to go over everything that just happened, what Blue just said would have cleared up something but, well, the prince was going though shock at the moment and not in a position to pay attention...
Boo was laying on the floor, she was cut up but thankfully it wasn't from the chaos, but from the blasts itself. She look up at the Familiar with teary eyes and whimper.
Ethan was frickin out but wasn't showing it was much as Ai, he didn't have ice magic, and didn't know what all Ai could.
Jason got out from under his table, he rushed over to the ice Machine "Ethan! Ai! Help me out!" He said hopped onto the table, he was messing with the Machine " Quickly get up and help push this thing down before she gets away, when it falls it should Freeze the floor!"
Blue moved his hands and felt Catch when the Dreamer didn't respond. //Uh oh, he's in shock and I'm blind// he moves and wobbles, managing to stand up.
He drew in another breath and shifted to his true form, pain shot through him and he spat, "Holy mother of the moons, that hurt!" he snorts and lowers his head.
Feeling Catch with his nose, he moved around and found one of the Dreamer's straps on his coat. Biting it, Blue lifted Catch up and with a combination of nudging, rocking his body and bumping the Dreamer with his wings. He got Catch on his back.
"High-ho! Blind silver away!" Blue walked over to the window and immediately his horns clinked on the glass. "Oh, hmmm" his ears twitch. "Well what's one more broken thing in this palace?"
He backs up and flares out his wings, "Hold on Dreamcatcher!" he yells and the blind horse tucks his wings in and lowers his head as he runs. Blue rammed right through the glass, onto a balcony.
He spread his wings to fly and misjudged the distance to the railing...greatly misjudged it. As he started to lift off the ground, he slammed chest first into the railing. Absolutely nailing his own Guardian Stone, hard, which winded him as the large stallion flipped over the railing.
Gypsy started petting Boo and humming softly to soothe the little dragon. - Ai moved quickly at Jason's order, she climbed up onto the table and ran right into the machine with all the force she could muster, then she continued to push. Using every bit of strength she could.
Catch wasn't helpful in the slightly, he was in shock and his condition didn't get any better as Blue ran into railing and flipped over it, sending the dark moon blood from the Royal back
Blue landed on his back, wheezing and gasping for air, he stayed on his back. "Outside, moonlight, hopefully there is moonlight" he wheezes out the last of his air and then finally after a few more moments of struggling to breathe. He inhales sharply and rolls onto his side.
Boo just cry in Gypsy arms, she was Scared, the familiar had Threatened then was creepy to Ethan, then the little dragonite was attacked by the blood sword, only to be blow up by Gypsy beam, so she wasn't having a good time " I-I want E-ater!" She sobbed
Ethan got up on the table to, he look over at Gypsy " Gypsy off the floor, get up on something or fly!"he shouted and then help push the Machine Jason push Machine, with all three the Machine moves making hissing whistles sounds as it near the edge, it fell off, the cylinder shattered, the substance instantly began to freeze the floor
Gypsy lowered her ears at Boo's crying. Then she looked to Ethan and the tipping machine. The familiar spread her decorative wings and hugged Boo to her, she quickly flew up as the machine crashed to the floor, the familiar landed on the table behind the 3.
Ai looked over, watching the floor freeze, silverblood stained her hands. It was her own blood, from Scarlett's effect, then slamming her hands into the machine, had ripped her hands open. But she didn't seem to notice yet.
Blue grunted and got up, knowing Catch was still stunned. He carefully followed the Dreamer's moans, ears strained forward and he slowed when the sound was loudest to him.
He grabbed Catch's strap in his teeth, and slowly dragged the Dreamer along, until he felt the familiar sensation of moonlight on his hide.
Blue set Catch down on the soft grass and moved about slowly, pinching one of Catch's wings at a time, between his teeth. He spread out the Dreamer's wings and then walked a few paces forward and collapsed. He felt drained in every way.
Purity quickly heads over and opens the door to the cell, getting outside and waiting for Suzano. "Crimson, the things in the fridge help, right? Try eating some of them!" she suggests before trying to brainstorm more ideas, "You said Fairfin water can burn and kill dark things, if Scarlet gets close, I could try to keep Scarlet away with that?"
The floor frozen over, the two boys took a breath " let's hope that work?" Jason said looking down st the ice cover floor, he then mess with some of the button to stop the ice from spreading Ethan was wet and cold, he didn't like being wet but he was, but he push that a side when he noticed Ai hands were bleeding, he smacked Jason on his shoulder " I need your jacket " Jason look back to Ethan then to Ai " yeah, sure, we should get her and Boo to Suzano " , he took off his jacket and then nodded at Gypsy, Boo was still crying.
" what about Scarlet? " Ethan took the jacket from his friend
" I'll check it out, you stay with Ai and Boo " Jason said slowly sliding off the table, he carefully put his feet on the floor so not to slip
Gypsy just kept Boo in her arms, and began to hum softly.
Ai finally felt the pain in her hands and noticed the blood and cuts on her palms and fingers. She joined Boo in her crying, now that all the events were calming down, all she could feel was pain.
Ethan carefully scooped up Ai using the jacket Jason gave him " shhh, you be ok, well go see Suzano and she make your hands better " he coo to the little girl as he carefully got down on the icy floor, he gave a nodded to Jason " you got this covered?" He asked looking down at the ice
"Yeah...I its cool" Jason reply with a goofy laugh The wolf boy shook his head and then headed to the door, he pulled the button with his elbow it made a cracking sound as the door opened, he clenched his teeth as he looked at the floor but it still look in tact, Ethan took a breath and look behind him " come Gypsy, we have to get them help " he then continued on his way back out of the hideout
Gypsy fluttered down off the table and tailed the wolf boy closely, still humming softly. She would stick close to him, he did have her anchor after all.
[A little skip to the infirmary...]
The infirmary was pretty much empty, there weren't any nurses in sight and only one patient was in the room. She was laying, curled up, under a thin white sheet. But her face was above the cover along with all her long, jet black, hair.
Alexandrea was in a deep sleep, her wounds were all closed up now due to her healing abilities. Only soft snores came from her.
Ethan push his lips seen that nurses weren't there, he walked over to an empty bed and set Ai down on it " you stay here with Boo as I go find one of the nurses, ok?" The wolf boy said gently as he took a blanket and covered the little girl with it.
He then went over to Gypsy " I'll take her Gypsy," and carefully took the little dragonite from her, and then set her on the bed with Ai and did the same thing to her and got her a blanket to " I'll be back with a nurse " he said then headed to the elevator
Ai's arms were trembling and she was still in a lot of pain. Boo crying for Eater, only made Ai feel worse. She failed Judas, she scared her friend and Scarlett got free all because of her. She continued to cry and cry hard at that.
Gypsy just sat in a corner, moping. - Alexandrea finally started to stir, hearing the kids crying, she got out of bed before her eyes were even open. She was never a heavy sleeper, no matter how deep of a sleep she was in.
She rubbed her eyes and yawned as she followed the sound of crying.
It took Alex a few moments for her tired brain to piece together who she was looking at, when she reached them. "What's wrong?" she asks in a sleepy voice, fighting back a yawn. She sits on the end of the bed. "Why are you two crying?"
Crimson was frickin out that it took a moment to realize what the Dreamer said " that right!" He rush over and open the refrigerator pulling out different food items and stuffing them in his mouth he didn't care what it was lemons, cheese, pomegranate, even if it didn't taste good he stuff it in this mouth and was eating it, he gagged a few times but the prince didn't want to kill again.
He looked over at Purity still with a full mouth " tha-t ...could... work...at... l-eas-t try..." now that he was thinking about it, Crimson now realize that Scarlet always encouraged him to us Fairfin as baet and never something else to fight against Nightmares // it's because she never wanted to get that close to them...I know that why //
Dreameater just keeps staring down at his claws while Crystal is quiet, and even when she makes her last hopeful comment, he doesn't say anything...
Until the elevator dings and they arrive safely back at the bottom, where Eater seems to snap out of it and perks up again, smiling faintly at Crystal before taking a few steps forward. "Ta-da! We're alive and well after surviving the elevator of the library~" the Nightmare teases at first, before sensing that somethings aren't quite right around the palace...

19 May, 2019, 8:06 pm
Hello Fluffy!
19 May, 2019, 8:08 pm
Hey Shadow!!
19 May, 2019, 8:10 pm
"... Hmm? Oh, yeah, Crimson said the same thing when he was telling me about when he got his human form," Eater replies after a quiet moment and turns his head back to her, "It went really well, I think, he was super miserable when I first got there so he wasn't going crazy trying to kill me, but we talked about life and I tried to cheer him up a bit, and now we're friends! ... Which is a good thing, because Blue stuck Crimson in my room and doesn't want to give me a new one, so we're roommates now, whether we like it or not. He told me he wants to wipe out all the Nightmares /except/ me, haha..."
... But then he pauses again, and asks, "... You don't like elevators, do you?"
'So that means he hasn't always had a human form?' Crystal thought to herself for a moment before getting back on track with the conversation at hand. She listened to Eater explain, only to look down with what was said at the end, "That's good to hear.. That it went well, I mean, not the parts like him being miserable or your room being in the basement.. why is down there your room anyway?"
Crystal then blinked at the Nightmares question about her and the elevator, "Um.. Well.. No, not really.." she replied, her usual soft expression turning into a bit of an embarrassed one.
19 May, 2019, 8:11 pm
Catch and Cataclysm both look up at Blue when he spoke, the Dreamer Prince then look to the Nightmare and gave him a small smile " you see Catty, at least you have a chance to live, I'm sure Blue and his people will take care of you like the other light Eaters "
// maybe there a way to kill Catch without his blood doing what ever it is to me? Maybe there is some way I can be a normal Nightmare and just take over my host...I don't want to be a mindlessly slave like the mutt is because of that female...I don't want to be a bug ether...and I really don't want Hiiro to eat me...//
The Nightmare work his jaw, he still didn't like it, to live a life of a bug if his pride outweigh his survival instincts he would decline the offer but survival was his top priority despite the measures he have to take in doing so, " how do I know this isn't a trick? That one's the mutts cured of the me, you won't just give me over to Hiiro Or just let him kill me? "
Ethan rush over to Ai as soon as he was free, he had his gloves on but hesitated for a moment before taking the little girls hands " A-Ai are you ok?" He was still shaken, but knew what ever the two talk about had to hurt Ai.
He was looking at the young girl hands, seen mark on her poem from Scarlet's touch " Ai, I want you to look at me, what did she do? Did she hurt you?"
Everything had gone to Scarlet's plan or at least one of them...
19 May, 2019, 8:12 pm
The /final/ part of the report was on Nightmare Syndrome itself. There were warnings and a list of known symptoms a Dreamer may have; depression, excessive negative emotions, etc...
One of the symptoms listed had a particular familiarity to Fiona. 'Oddly colored eyes, accompanied by an eerie glow and slit pupils.'
"...I feel like I've seen that somewhere before... Elementals going rogue kinda have something like that too... Is that it...?" She couldn't quite put her finger on what she was thinking of, but she copied all the known symptoms into her diary anyways.
On went the paragraph, 'There are hundreds of theories about what Nightmare Syndrome is and what exactly it does. Some believe, because Nightmares have their former selves' memories, that they are simply evil, corrupt Dreamers. However, the disease thus far has largely remained a mystery. Individuals everywhere are putting their lives and earnings into ongoing studies and hopes for a cure. Surely, a day will come when a cure will be found.
But for now, if you know a Dreamer suffering from the beginning symptoms, let them, or their Fairfin know.'
Fiona frowned at first, letting out a drawn out, quiet 'hmmmmm,' as she thought about what she just read... Once again, there was something that jumped out at her... The thought of Nightmares being evil, corrupt Dreamers.
"...Nightmares are bugs..." She muttered, pausing to think hard about the first and only time she'd seen a Nightmare's true form. The Elemental put a piece together with what she'd read--she remembered Eater having a tiny sphere of light when he'd woken her up. "...They like to eat light magic, like young Nightmares do."
She paused, "...And the bugs are even inside Dreamers? Because Purity puked one up? ...I still don't really trust that...
Either way, they can't just be evil Dreamers, can they? The bug-things don't even LOOK like Dreamers...! Unless Dreamers have a bug form...?" Her brows furrowed as she stopped to compute that.
"Wait, no, that's right... Dreamers have a different thing...
It's... Uh... Yeah! It's a heart-reflection! It's sorta like an Elemental's core and it looks like a...
...A ball of light."
//And Nightmares have those big holes in their chests and /Malice literally said he didn't have a heart.///
"Oh."
Fiona went silent for a long moment. "...Nightmare Syndrome... It's... It's... Not really a disease...?
It's more like... A /parasite./" She murmured to herself, intensely jotting her theories into her diary.
Afterwards, she took a deep breath, slowly put her diary and pencil aside, took the Shadow Hunter's book and closed it with a 'SLAM.'
"WELL.
I LEARNED A LOT. There was A LOT in this ONE BOOK."
Fiona just stared at it in her hands. Then, without another thought, she shoved the book into her hair, "...I'm borrowing this."
19 May, 2019, 8:13 pm
Purity reluctantly nods her head in agreement with Crimson's comments, and sighs. "That's true... I couldn't bear to do that to her... I understand," she quietly replies, although she's still a bit hopeful, and curious as to what Crimson is thinking about, but she gets distracted when Suzano speaks up. "... Excuse me, but what do you mean, I don't have it anymore? I didn't think I was showing symptoms of it... But, no, I don't mind if you examine me, I guess that'd be a good idea after I thew up a bug the other day..." the Dreamer replies, getting quiet at the end there as she turns to the nurse.
19 May, 2019, 8:13 pm
I think that all the Last posts
19 May, 2019, 8:36 pm
And now I gotta go in five minutes XP
19 May, 2019, 8:43 pm
"It just my hands that hurt" Ai answers as she looks up at Ethan. "Why am I useless?" she sobs out, "Why can't I save Judas!? I want to save Judas!"
In the meantime...
Gypsy was pressing every button she could find and pulling every lever...
19 May, 2019, 8:45 pm
"I am a man of my word" Blue says, "I am not a Nightmare, I don't lie or twist things. Once you're out of Catch, you'll be safe, with the other Light Eaters" he looks uncomfortable as he speaks, it was becoming harder to stay in his War Horse form.
19 May, 2019, 8:57 pm
Fiona sat there on the floor for a couple of minutes, having a very serious, mutter-filled debate with herself on what she just read...
"Is that really right, though... Are Nightmares parasites that eat Dreamers' heart-reflections? How do they even get /into/ a Dreamer?
And what does that mean for bringing Weaver back...?
...I gotta figure this out." She looked at the other books spread out around her, scrutinizing their titles. The Elemental wasn't about to give up anytime soon, as she spent the next who-knows-how-long picking up books and reading through their contents on Nightmares.
...If they had any, that is.
"...There aren't even any pictures in this one..."
Closing and dropping her seventh book on the stack she'd read, Fiona let out an exasperated sigh. "Aaah, c'mon... There's gotta be something here... Something about anything!
It's just been the same stuff over and over... And there's still so much WEIRD stuff I don't get...
Am I just missing everything?!" Her question echoed into the empty room.
She tiredly glanced down at the remaining books surrounding her... Or rather, she glared at them.
//...Maybe I should take a break... I think I'm getting too frustrated.//
19 May, 2019, 9:47 pm
"I be able to run a full Tests in the lab but I can at least do a Quick examination " Suzano pulled out some tools from her bag and started to look the Dreamer over " about that by the new information we been Gathering we believe that Nightmare syndrome Is contracted either at birth or sometime as a young foun, it just dormant until a Dreamer Reaches maturity and it could stay that way because of the link between a Dreamer and Fairfin" she While taking light to To examine Purity eyes with a Special light that if she had the Nightmare syndrome it make her pupils slit but to the Dreamer it was just a Bright light.
Crimson was setting quietly as the Nurse was looking over The white Dreamer, he turned his head away a little from the flashlight Suzano had, to him it was slightly Irritation, he rubbed his bracelet and try to think on other things besides his Corruption, // she throw up her light Eater so she shouldn't have Nightmare syndrome anymore, hopefully the Nurse doesn't say that their bug's...//
but not long after the prince had though that Suzano had started to explain what it was that the Dreamer Throwed up
" oh you don't know? That bug you spit up was...huh?" She Paused however when Crimson started to jump between the 'shh' Signal putting his finger to his lip and then the 'cut it' Jester crossed his neck as he had a goofy Panicked face...one the prince got her attention he Mouth ' she hates bug's'
If the Dreamer look his way he Quickly moves his hand like he was rubbing his neck and just make a goofy smile
19 May, 2019, 9:48 pm
(That took forever xp
My new phone hates me)
19 May, 2019, 9:57 pm
(mine too, it won't text)
19 May, 2019, 9:57 pm
(Though my phone isn't new :P)
19 May, 2019, 10:18 pm
"Shhh, you ok" Ethan coo to the little girl, " Ai your not Useless, if it wasn't for you, your brother wouldn't have any hope or reason to keep going, he wanting to do better because of you, we all want to free him and were going to do that together"
Scarlet's had planned on this to go two ways...one get the outcast sister to help her or if not, she buy time talking to the girl as As she drained her energy... and since the first did not work the blood sword would act without the girl, The ice started to crack and with Gypsy pushing buttons the Machine was turned off holding her...
One of the button Gypsy push opens the door to the room, Jason was standing outside it with a Jackhammer going at the door, he fell forward making a Squawk, thankfully his Jackhammer tuned off when he fell
Boo Squeaked what the sudden surprise then jump back, she looked at the Jason with wide eyes " you ok?"
" ugh... yeah, I think so" he push the Jackhammer off to the side and rubbed his head.
Just then the Ice burst and the blood rush over the edge
19 May, 2019, 10:18 pm
( it's a phone thing I think)
19 May, 2019, 10:20 pm
(I'm back!
Hey Blood! How're you doing? Were you just hanging around not saying anything again earlier? XP )
19 May, 2019, 10:23 pm
(No, I went to the movies and saw Detective Pikachu)
19 May, 2019, 10:24 pm
(Ahh, ok! How was it? What're your thoughts on it?)
19 May, 2019, 10:25 pm
(This cover is too adorableeeeee)
19 May, 2019, 10:26 pm
(Hi Fade! :D )
19 May, 2019, 10:29 pm
Ai nodded slowly, sniffing and wiping away her tears. She couldn't only feel pain at the moment...her hands really really hurt from touching Scarlett.
She jumped when Jason fell inside with his jackhammer.
Ai's eyes widened when Scarlett broke free, "I won't help the bad guys, I won't help bad red" she moves away from Ethan and begins to chant. Raising her arms and putting up a barrier around the room, keeping everyone inside.
Gypsy stopped pushing buttons, for a moment, her eyes widening. And then started pushing buttons again, the ones she already pushed, hoping to freeze the blood again.
19 May, 2019, 10:30 pm
(I liked it, it was cute. I'd have liked to see more Pokemon or a different legendary than Mewtwo. Mewtwo is sooo boring and overused)
19 May, 2019, 10:33 pm
(Mmm! I've heard it's pretty good. Yeah Mewtwo is overused a lot, but you know, he's the original big bad legendary, they gotta push him as hard as they can 'XP There's so many other cool legendaries though, but I see why they keep going back to Mewtwo
I just feel like poor Mew gets overshadowed so much too 'XD )
19 May, 2019, 10:35 pm
(BLEGH, I'm so late with this.
Hey Blood, hey Fade!)
19 May, 2019, 10:36 pm
(They say Mew is the strongest legendary, but it's sooo weak in the games xD
There's like 30ish legendaries they could used, Jirachi, Manaphy, Groudon, etc...
Hell if you're gonna talk about Mew, at least show it! But they didn't)
19 May, 2019, 10:59 pm
"O-oh my..." Purity simply whispers upon learning that Dreamers get Nightmare Syndrome at a young age, and stays still while the nurse gets her things to examine her. When the light is shone in her eyes, Purity tries not to squint too much, but her pupils don't slit like they would if she still had the curse on her.
She looks a bit worried when Suzano starts to bring up the bug she threw up, but it gradually turns to confusion when the nurse stops abruptly, and the Dreamer turns around to see whatever Crimson's doing... Only to see him giving her a goofy smile in return. Purity turns back to Suzano then, narrowing her eyes and biting her lip before quietly asking, "What about the bug...?"
19 May, 2019, 11:01 pm
(I know right! I'd love to see how they'd handle legendaries like Groudon, Kyogre, Dialga, and Palkia in live-action CG, man, any of them would be great!
Aaahhhh Mew would be the most adorable little thing in that live-action, I wanna see that now X'DD )
19 May, 2019, 11:04 pm
(Yess those legendaries would have been so cool. And Mew would have been adorable.)
19 May, 2019, 11:05 pm
(Mmm now I'm curious, who's your favorite Pokemon, Blood?)
19 May, 2019, 11:08 pm
(Bulbasaur/Venusaur was always number one
But I also reeeally really love Tyranitar
You?)
19 May, 2019, 11:19 pm
Dreamcatcher look to Blue with worry " you don't look so good " he grimaced // that right, he said that form took a lot of energy to use, I should find a way to break this dream...//
Cataclysm scrunched his nose, he was a young Nightmare and things like trust was something he didn't understand or trust but the Nightmare knew he wasn't in much Of a position it say anything...
The red Nightmare work his jaw a bit before speaking up " I'll think about it, it's not like I have much a choice Either way, I can't just walk myself out of the mutt and if you do figure out how to duplicate the vomit cure then that's that...." he got quite Thinking of his life as a bug In some Glass tank...// probably get Experiment and on like some stupid labrat...//with that though made the Nightmare think about the Origins of the cure, it didn't set well with him "but ask yourself this, why did a cure show up now after all this time? I'm sure a person like Void wouldn't had just keep something out like that...it seem a little to good to be true... but who am I to say I'm just a Nightmare looking out for my own skin but Catch Void was only out to kill me to get to you"
The Dreamer prince was thinking about how he woke from dreams before, that was until Catty spoke up with his Ominous warning, he hadn't had much time to think about that " so are you saying Void set that up?"
Catty made a 'are you stupid face'" I wouldn't be surprised, but I bet it was meant for you not Purity to drink, Void is evil and this is coming from a Nightmare, he wouldn't have done that out of the goodness in his heart...he up to something Catcher"
19 May, 2019, 11:19 pm
(HI FADE IM REALLY SLOW)
19 May, 2019, 11:25 pm
Dreameater chuckles at Crystal's question and simply replies: "I'm a Nightmare, remember? A horrifying, heartless, dangerous monster with an insatiable appetite for the fears and sorrows of others? Why would I have an actual room to myself in a palace of super ancient, super powerful Vaseterm? I'm literally and metaphorically below them, so I get to stay in a prison cell in the basement, a cell especially designed to keep Nightmares inside." He pauses a moment to sigh and stretch his front legs out a little before he continues, turning his head now to look back at his claws, "But you know, I'm fine with that, because I'll admit, my instincts to hunt and kill are still there, I just don't embrace them anymore... But on the chance that something comes up and I go into a feeding frenzy or something, I'd hope there'd be someplace I could be locked up until I get back under control, I don't want to hurt or kill anyone else... So I'm fine with my den being a prison cell, it just means Blue's palace is my palace, heh."
Eater glance back to Crystal when she admits she isn't fond of elevators, and tries to give her some reassurance when he says, "Hey, it's alright, we'll be out of here before you know it."
19 May, 2019, 11:32 pm
Blue nodded slowly to Catch. He tried to listen to the Nightmare, but the uncomfortable feeling was only getting worse and worse by the moment. By the time the two stopped speaking, the War Horse was fidgeting, he couldn't keep this up any longer and gently set down Cataclysm on the floor, but kept a hold of Catch.
Holding the Dreamer in one hand, Blue turned him to look at his Guardian Stones, he raised his free hand and touched his finger to Catch's stones as he began to chant.
Blue was doing what Qui had done to him, in his very first vision. He was calling one of Catch's Guardian Familiars to break the vision.
19 May, 2019, 11:40 pm
(Ooh really? I wouldn't have expected that, Bulbasaur and Venusaur are pretty neat ones though! I like Tyranitar too X3
My favorite is Kyurem, specifically White Kyurem. I'm a simple girl, I like ice, I like dragons, therefore I like ice dragons 'XD
But I also really like Hydreigon and Lucario too~)
19 May, 2019, 11:42 pm
(Thanks Volors for eating my comment TuT
I just wanted to say hi to you all and make sure you guys were doing well x) In case the news wasn't given, I've been taking a break from roleplays and most Colors stuff, which is why I haven't attended recently. But I'll be back soon!)
19 May, 2019, 11:45 pm
(I understand taking a break, hope all is well for you~ Can't wait to have you back in SKeys!)
19 May, 2019, 11:47 pm
(White Kyurem is a cool one too, I like it better than Black Kyurem
Mega Lucario is pretty cool
Hydreigon is fun, but levelling up dragon types is a pain
my fav dragon was always Flygon)
19 May, 2019, 11:48 pm
(Ah, alright Fade!
I hope you have a nice break, and I'm looking forward to your return! ^-^)
19 May, 2019, 11:52 pm
(Alrighty, that's understandable Fade! We'll be looking forward to when you hop back in! :3 )
19 May, 2019, 11:57 pm
(Oooh yes I always loved Flygon too! Such a cool dragon, I'm kinda sad he didn't get a Mega in OmegaRuby/AlphaSapphire
I also feel bad that fairy types got introduced and poor Hydreigon got even more weaknesses :'D )
19 May, 2019, 11:59 pm
(Yeah, I want more megas!
That's true, but Sableye and Spiritomb finally got a weakness which is good. They didn't have one before, so people would hack them in with Wonderguard ability and you couldn't kill em xD)
20 May, 2019, 12:00 am
(True that, true that X'D )
20 May, 2019, 12:15 am
Jason pulled his legs in just in time as the door dropped close again, he looked up with wide eyes "OH NO!" He Scurry to his feet and started to push buttons on the Controls alongside Gypsy
But Scarlet red liquid oozed from the ice on to the floor, the blood moved across it and was going right for Ai...she was going to feed on the girl to power herself up more
Ethan seen this and Despite his fear he stepped in the way of the cursed sword, he held out his hand in chanting making a Barrier between him and Scarlet.
The blood Veered off its course, she couldn't get out with Ai's Barrier nor could she get to the girl with Ethan Barrier but Judas sister wasn't the only one Scarlet wanted to eat...
Boo Screamed as the blood rush at her, she try to run but she was in a small room and had Clumsy feet, she tripped over her paws and that when Scarlet had her pray...the little dragonite Screamed as the blood started to cover her...
20 May, 2019, 12:15 am
Suzano had pick up on what Crimson was trying to tell her, that the Dreamer was Scared of bugs and well she Puked One up that happened to be the Nightmare in her..." oh deer... well about that, hm, I what to ask what do you think it was?" She ask instead
Crimson was listening and watching quietly, that was until he felt something very familiar, his eyes widened with fear " she free" he Whispered, the Prince immediately move push the woman women out "GET OUT OF HERE! SHE FREE! SHE GOING TO BE COMING!!"
20 May, 2019, 12:23 am
Ai knew she had to keep the barrier up, she couldn't let Scarlett get free from this room. It was her fault in the first place, she felt her heart sink as Boo screamed and Ai yelled, "Save her Gypsy!"
The chaos pixie twisted away from the buttons and held out her paws towards Boo and the blood, the familiar focused and chaos energy gathered in her paws. She then blasted it, with all the force she could muster, the floor ripped up as the beam went and hit Boo full on.
Gypsy braced herself as a chaos explosion went off in the small room...
20 May, 2019, 12:29 am
"...Well... If I do take a break... That means I'm not gonna be /doing anything/... I can't not do anything...!" Fiona thought aloud. "Maybe... I can just focus on something else instead..."
She considered her options for a moment, squinting thoughtfully as she did so. "...Like looking for stuff about ghosts...?"
In the end, she decided that was a good idea, so she stood up. However, she stopped again after that. "But... I WILL read all of these.
Eventually.
I still have to figure this out..." The Elemental muttered, crouching down, collecting the books she hadn't read yet, and tossing them all into her hair. "...Maybe... Maybe it'd be easier if someone looked at these with me... Or if I talked with someone who knows more about Nightmares..."
As she spoke to no one in particular, she grabbed the 'already read' pile of books and shoved them back into the bookcase.
"...Wait... There was already an idea for that though, wasn't there? Yeah... We were gonna go talk to Queen Victoria...
...But that was a group plan--for Terra, Purity, maybe Catch, and me...
...I still like that plan..."
She continued talking to herself.
20 May, 2019, 12:50 am
"I-I don't know..." Purity starts to mumble, but yelps when Crimson suddenly starts shouting and trying to push her and Suzano away, which quickly gets her mind off of bugs. "What?! Who's coming?!" she exclaims, instinctively summoning her mop as if a fight's coming, but then it clicks, "It's Scarlet?!"
20 May, 2019, 1:32 am
Catch grimaced as Blue moved him " what are you doing?" He asked nervous to the big war Horse as he put his big finger on the Dreamers chest
The prince didn't know what Blue was doing but he felt something inside, it felt warm but not like the Nightmare fire in him, his Garden familiar was waking up and so was his true moon blood form, Catch started to glow as light shine from him, his hair turned silvery white, blue war paint appeared on his face, big black wings full up stars came from his back.
The light shine and gather into a Beautiful display, it form into a bright white wing lion with glowing blue eyes, he had golden armor with Intricate detailing, the lion almost had a Dreamer look to him with his main flowing of clouds and ribbons on him
"Who is that?" Catch things outloud, his starry blue eyes were Mesmerize by the familiar, something told him he knew this Creature that he belong to him but he didn't know his name
Cataclasm shrunk back from the light, he was making hissing noise, the Nightmare was Frightened of the familiar, and he was frightened of his hosts moon blood form
But then something else happened, Catch had two Gardens one of light as the other night... darkness poured from the moon blood , he clinched his teeth feeling a the fire in his chest grow hotter and Twist into the Disturbing sensation of the Nightmare fire.
"C-Catch! What are you going?!" Cataclasm being to panic as his darkness was being pulled
"I don't know what I'm doing! I was going to ask what you were doing! My chest feels like it's on fire!" Catch reply Equally as panicked
The darkness Swirled in twists around the red Nightmare, Catty was Franticly shouting, he didn't like this at all
Catch gasps as he felt a sharp pain in his chest, // CATTY!// he was about to pass out when the sounds of a Majestic lion Roar reach his ears, Shattering the dream, the last thing he seen was the lion of light and behind him the darkness were the Nightmare was...
-
Dreamcatcher gasps spitting up blood once the dream had ended, he was still in his dark form just like when the vision started, he Collapsed and fell forward
20 May, 2019, 1:41 am
Blue watched and listened to what happened, he was calm, still uncomfortable, but calm. As he watched everything play out, he didn't answer Catch yet and just waited until the vision was finally shattered.
-
Blue had let go off Catch's horns, gasping sharply and falling backwards onto his back. He could tell he was in his human form, his wings quivered and his vision was blurry and almost entirely black.
He swallowed back the vomit rising in his throat and grimaced at the after taste. It caused him to cough a few times and he then took a few moments to rest and gather his thoughts.
"We...we should go over what happened" Blue says between breathes, //I don't think I've ever stayed in that form so long without the moonlight// he groans and sits up. Holding his stomach with one arm clutched tightly over it.
"That lion thing was your familiar, so was the darkness that was forming" Blue draws in a deep breath. "You are in charge of his name, when you want to call him forth, focus on him and call his name. I named my Great Wolf, Kyro, he didn't have a name before that"

"Oh..." was all Crystal said at first. She was all for safety and being cautious, but a cell in the basement seemed a little harsh... at least up until Eater admitted to having the instincts to hunt and kill things, then she understood the reasoning a bit better, but it also kind of didn't really help her uneasiness about being in the presence of said Nightmare any. Despite that though, she was at least thankful for the honesty. Before she could respond to anything else, she listened as Eater attempts to reassure her, "Yeah," Crystal laughed nervously, "I hope so."

(Hi Galaxy! How're you doing? :3 )
20 May, 2019, 2:18 am
{ you are different from your mother...you have less vampiric Nethersglade blood in you then her...your blood is Tainted!} Scarlet hiss in the little dragonite mind, Nethersglade were very Territorial Expressly the females
Boo was already Screaming because of Scarlet, she had Tears streaming down her face.
But before anyone else could do anything Gypsy Blasted a laser beam...
Explosion then set off a chain reaction of other things Exploding...
Ethan was frozen as every was blowing up around him just one though play though his mind as he watch helplessly // Boo dead...//
The little dragonite was sent flying from the blasts...
Jason Quickly hid under the desk as everything went off, " FRIENDLY FIRE! FRIENDLY FIRE!" thankfully explosion happened a lot down there so he had plenty of Fire extinguishers on hand, not only that but the Emergency sprinkler system for when fire broke out.
The blasts did send spatter the blood everywhere, but Scarlet was quickly forming back together, that was until the sprinkler system when off, water poured from the roof getting Everything wet...the blood sword Decided to take this opportunity and seep through the cracks in the floor from Gypsy beam...the blood sword would have love to feed more but between Ai, Boo and Gypsy beam she had enough
20 May, 2019, 2:19 am
(Hey Galaxy!)
20 May, 2019, 2:20 am
( Hi Galaxy!)
20 May, 2019, 2:27 am
Gypsy rushed into the fires, searching for Boo, it didn't take her too long and she picked up the dragonette in her arms.
Ai meanwhile, let her barriers down, she noticed Scarlett escaping and panicked. She put her hands on top of her head and danced in place, trying to think. She looked to the broken ice and the machines.
But she wasn't accustomed to dealing with things, Ai just screamed, "ETHAN! ICE USE ICE! HOW DO I ICE! THE BLOOD IS ESCAPING!"
20 May, 2019, 2:35 am
"YES SCARLET! WHO ELSE?!" Crimson shouted still pushing the two ladies to the door
Suzano grab her bag and when to the door " but how she Being held"
"DIDN'T YOU HEAR ME?! SHE FREE AND COMING! GET OUT NOW BEFORE I GO CRAZY AGAIN!!" The dragon prince was Terrified that a repeat of the morning was going to happen
20 May, 2019, 2:39 am
Catch would have love to go over everything that just happened, what Blue just said would have cleared up something but, well, the prince was going though shock at the moment and not in a position to pay attention...
Catch was Laying on the floor unresponsive
20 May, 2019, 3:01 am
Boo was laying on the floor, she was cut up but thankfully it wasn't from the chaos, but from the blasts itself. She look up at the Familiar with teary eyes and whimper.
Ethan was frickin out but wasn't showing it was much as Ai, he didn't have ice magic, and didn't know what all Ai could.
Jason got out from under his table, he rushed over to the ice Machine "Ethan! Ai! Help me out!" He said hopped onto the table, he was messing with the Machine " Quickly get up and help push this thing down before she gets away, when it falls it should Freeze the floor!"
20 May, 2019, 3:04 am
Ethan first ran over and hit an Alarm
20 May, 2019, 3:13 am
Blue moved his hands and felt Catch when the Dreamer didn't respond. //Uh oh, he's in shock and I'm blind// he moves and wobbles, managing to stand up.
He drew in another breath and shifted to his true form, pain shot through him and he spat, "Holy mother of the moons, that hurt!" he snorts and lowers his head.
Feeling Catch with his nose, he moved around and found one of the Dreamer's straps on his coat. Biting it, Blue lifted Catch up and with a combination of nudging, rocking his body and bumping the Dreamer with his wings. He got Catch on his back.
"High-ho! Blind silver away!" Blue walked over to the window and immediately his horns clinked on the glass. "Oh, hmmm" his ears twitch. "Well what's one more broken thing in this palace?"
He backs up and flares out his wings, "Hold on Dreamcatcher!" he yells and the blind horse tucks his wings in and lowers his head as he runs. Blue rammed right through the glass, onto a balcony.
He spread his wings to fly and misjudged the distance to the railing...greatly misjudged it. As he started to lift off the ground, he slammed chest first into the railing. Absolutely nailing his own Guardian Stone, hard, which winded him as the large stallion flipped over the railing.
All in a very ungraceful series of movements...
20 May, 2019, 3:18 am
Gypsy started petting Boo and humming softly to soothe the little dragon.
-
Ai moved quickly at Jason's order, she climbed up onto the table and ran right into the machine with all the force she could muster, then she continued to push. Using every bit of strength she could.
20 May, 2019, 3:27 am
Catch wasn't helpful in the slightly, he was in shock and his condition didn't get any better as Blue ran into railing and flipped over it, sending the dark moon blood from the Royal back
20 May, 2019, 3:31 am
Blue landed on his back, wheezing and gasping for air, he stayed on his back. "Outside, moonlight, hopefully there is moonlight" he wheezes out the last of his air and then finally after a few more moments of struggling to breathe. He inhales sharply and rolls onto his side.
20 May, 2019, 3:45 am
Boo just cry in Gypsy arms, she was Scared, the familiar had Threatened then was creepy to Ethan, then the little dragonite was attacked by the blood sword, only to be blow up by Gypsy beam, so she wasn't having a good time " I-I want E-ater!" She sobbed
Ethan got up on the table to, he look over at Gypsy " Gypsy off the floor, get up on something or fly!"he shouted and then help push the Machine
Jason push Machine, with all three the Machine moves making hissing whistles sounds as it near the edge, it fell off, the cylinder shattered, the substance instantly began to freeze the floor
20 May, 2019, 3:50 am
Catch just laid there were he landed, he only made a few moaned in replies he desperately needed some Moonlight after everything
20 May, 2019, 3:51 am
Gypsy lowered her ears at Boo's crying. Then she looked to Ethan and the tipping machine. The familiar spread her decorative wings and hugged Boo to her, she quickly flew up as the machine crashed to the floor, the familiar landed on the table behind the 3.
Ai looked over, watching the floor freeze, silverblood stained her hands. It was her own blood, from Scarlett's effect, then slamming her hands into the machine, had ripped her hands open. But she didn't seem to notice yet.
20 May, 2019, 3:55 am
Blue grunted and got up, knowing Catch was still stunned. He carefully followed the Dreamer's moans, ears strained forward and he slowed when the sound was loudest to him.
He grabbed Catch's strap in his teeth, and slowly dragged the Dreamer along, until he felt the familiar sensation of moonlight on his hide.
Blue set Catch down on the soft grass and moved about slowly, pinching one of Catch's wings at a time, between his teeth. He spread out the Dreamer's wings and then walked a few paces forward and collapsed. He felt drained in every way.
20 May, 2019, 3:59 am
Purity quickly heads over and opens the door to the cell, getting outside and waiting for Suzano. "Crimson, the things in the fridge help, right? Try eating some of them!" she suggests before trying to brainstorm more ideas, "You said Fairfin water can burn and kill dark things, if Scarlet gets close, I could try to keep Scarlet away with that?"
20 May, 2019, 4:09 am
The floor frozen over, the two boys took a breath
" let's hope that work?" Jason said looking down st the ice cover floor, he then mess with some of the button to stop the ice from spreading
Ethan was wet and cold, he didn't like being wet but he was, but he push that a side when he noticed Ai hands were bleeding, he smacked Jason on his shoulder " I need your jacket "
Jason look back to Ethan then to Ai " yeah, sure, we should get her and Boo to Suzano " , he took off his jacket and then nodded at Gypsy, Boo was still crying.
" what about Scarlet? " Ethan took the jacket from his friend
" I'll check it out, you stay with Ai and Boo " Jason said slowly sliding off the table, he carefully put his feet on the floor so not to slip
20 May, 2019, 4:12 am
Gypsy just kept Boo in her arms, and began to hum softly.
Ai finally felt the pain in her hands and noticed the blood and cuts on her palms and fingers. She joined Boo in her crying, now that all the events were calming down, all she could feel was pain.
20 May, 2019, 4:32 am
( lilly I have questions)
20 May, 2019, 4:35 am
(Ah I see now, I secretly brbed to get ready in advance for bed XP )
20 May, 2019, 4:53 am
Ethan carefully scooped up Ai using the jacket Jason gave him " shhh, you be ok, well go see Suzano and she make your hands better " he coo to the little girl as he carefully got down on the icy floor, he gave a nodded to Jason " you got this covered?" He asked looking down at the ice
"Yeah...I its cool" Jason reply with a goofy laugh
The wolf boy shook his head and then headed to the door, he pulled the button with his elbow it made a cracking sound as the door opened, he clenched his teeth as he looked at the floor but it still look in tact, Ethan took a breath and look behind him " come Gypsy, we have to get them help " he then continued on his way back out of the hideout
20 May, 2019, 4:58 am
(Aha I don't work tomorrow~ I get to relax all day)
20 May, 2019, 5:01 am
( luckily you, I have to work xp)
20 May, 2019, 5:04 am
Ai just cried and didn't resist Ethan.
Gypsy fluttered down off the table and tailed the wolf boy closely, still humming softly. She would stick close to him, he did have her anchor after all.
[A little skip to the infirmary...]
The infirmary was pretty much empty, there weren't any nurses in sight and only one patient was in the room. She was laying, curled up, under a thin white sheet. But her face was above the cover along with all her long, jet black, hair.
Alexandrea was in a deep sleep, her wounds were all closed up now due to her healing abilities. Only soft snores came from her.
20 May, 2019, 5:21 am
Catch grimaced as Blue moved parts of him, he mooned
The dark moon blood body relaxed as moons light hit him, his eyelids flutter as he was dreaming
20 May, 2019, 5:25 am
Blue just closed his eyes to rest, too worn out to shift, he stayed in his true form as he drifted off to sleep.
20 May, 2019, 5:29 am
Ethan push his lips seen that nurses weren't there, he walked over to an empty bed and set Ai down on it " you stay here with Boo as I go find one of the nurses, ok?" The wolf boy said gently as he took a blanket and covered the little girl with it.
He then went over to Gypsy " I'll take her Gypsy," and carefully took the little dragonite from her, and then set her on the bed with Ai and did the same thing to her and got her a blanket to " I'll be back with a nurse " he said then headed to the elevator
Boo just sat there crying "I-I want Eater..."
20 May, 2019, 5:30 am
(Ahh I'm getting distracted now 'XD )
20 May, 2019, 5:36 am
Ai's arms were trembling and she was still in a lot of pain. Boo crying for Eater, only made Ai feel worse. She failed Judas, she scared her friend and Scarlett got free all because of her. She continued to cry and cry hard at that.
Gypsy just sat in a corner, moping.
-
Alexandrea finally started to stir, hearing the kids crying, she got out of bed before her eyes were even open. She was never a heavy sleeper, no matter how deep of a sleep she was in.
She rubbed her eyes and yawned as she followed the sound of crying.
It took Alex a few moments for her tired brain to piece together who she was looking at, when she reached them. "What's wrong?" she asks in a sleepy voice, fighting back a yawn. She sits on the end of the bed. "Why are you two crying?"
20 May, 2019, 5:42 am
Crimson was frickin out that it took a moment to realize what the Dreamer said " that right!" He rush over and open the refrigerator pulling out different food items and stuffing them in his mouth he didn't care what it was lemons, cheese, pomegranate, even if it didn't taste good he stuff it in this mouth and was eating it, he gagged a few times but the prince didn't want to kill again.
He looked over at Purity still with a full mouth " tha-t ...could... work...at... l-eas-t try..." now that he was thinking about it, Crimson now realize that Scarlet always encouraged him to us Fairfin as baet and never something else to fight against Nightmares // it's because she never wanted to get that close to them...I know that why //
20 May, 2019, 5:47 am
( I hit a wall of sleep x'D)
20 May, 2019, 5:51 am
*I this I'm going down )
20 May, 2019, 5:51 am
Dreameater just keeps staring down at his claws while Crystal is quiet, and even when she makes her last hopeful comment, he doesn't say anything...
Until the elevator dings and they arrive safely back at the bottom, where Eater seems to snap out of it and perks up again, smiling faintly at Crystal before taking a few steps forward. "Ta-da! We're alive and well after surviving the elevator of the library~" the Nightmare teases at first, before sensing that somethings aren't quite right around the palace...
20 May, 2019, 5:53 am
(You're going down, huh Shadow? You've hit your limit? X'D )
20 May, 2019, 5:55 am
? I think so I can't help my eye open anymore I'm pass out soon )
20 May, 2019, 5:56 am
Night everything @
20 May, 2019, 5:57 am
(Goodnight Shadow X'D

20 May, 2019, 5:58 am
(Goodnight Shadow!
