Anna Pause with that // that was Crimson?// she didn't know he could do something like that, but she really didn't know what all the red prince could do in the first place, she wondered more just what was Crimson? At first she thought he was just some grumpy kid who hung out with Crystal, he seem to simer down and really just seemed like a part of the group, in fact he didn't seem to have much to him other then he was some kind of prince but then his bracelet came off and everything went wrong from there, it just seem like one thing after other things were happening and it was all centered around Crimson, she wondered why now? He didn't seem like he wanted any of this to happen and yet it was, at least it seem that part of the group was someplace safe now // Alright! You guys hang tight and let me know if anything changes on your end! As for us well... Catch and Weaver are talking to that Forsaken Lord guy Rage right now... Weaver just asked him what he was up to, he did tell Catch earlier that he was looking for someone named Revenge //

Danny looked away from the spot the red light was coming from, it was a strange phenomenon that he couldn't remember experience before, sure he didn't remember everything but something like that, he was sure he remembered. " before that freakish light I had been sent to find fine Revenge and kill him " he said rubbing the back of his head, Rage was figuring he probably should get back to that but he wasn't having any luck in sensing where the Forsaken Lord Revenge was because of the magic spell " yeah, his stupid spell makes it hard to find him, it been a long time since he used this one... he must be pretty injured for it to be this week..." he Mumble and then a look of annoyance crossed his face " I don't want to wait years trying to find him and I can't get Death and her pets to look in this place, and if I come across Will I have to kick his butt and bring him before the blood lady "

Rage stretched with a big yawn " well, I got to get back to work " he then pointed at Dreamcatcher " you weird freak, you track Revenge like the other white haired freak? "

Dreamcatcher flinched, sure he said he would help him find whoever Revenge was but not to kill someone! On top of that he was pretty sure that had to be Malice and if Malice were to be killed, that means Dreameater would become the next Nightmare king, Catch mind was now running frantic, he didn't want to lie but this wasn't what he had expected

Dreamweaver listens to Rage as he rambles on about his job and what all happened, and he frowns slightly when Catch flinches. //Hey hey, we'll work this out, let's use our heads and think,// he says to Catch and gives him a light pat on his good shoulder, then waves a hand at Rage and shakes his head. "Uh, well I don't know half the names you just mentioned, but I'm assuming Revenge is Malice, right? And you gotta go kill him? Aaand for some reason or another you want Catch here to help out? Hmmm..." The Nightmare crosses his arms and closes his eyes afterwards, and then thinks for a moment before telepathically asking Catch, //Hey, so I've got kind of a crazy idea, hear me out on this one, alright? I'm thinkin maybe I can try to talk Danny here into splitting up with us, then we can go try to find Malice, see what kind of condition he's in, warn him about Danny and that he's coming, then maybe we can come back and tell Danny where Malice's last location was? I uh, don't know for sure what happened that's got you so nervous and him asking you to help him, but I'm gonna go out on a limb and assume that's part of if not the reason you were able to get me out of the frenzy... But! What do you think of that?//

The red king did his best to slow his breathing even though he wasn't sure how he was doing it, he followed the rhythm of Rahab breathing, then with Glory and Fiona's example It wasn't much longer before his breathing was at a steadier pace, Crimson breathing was still raspy, had just gone though a lot and it was wearing on his body.

The red king didn't say anything, he was just staring as he breathed, he was extremely confused, they were talking to him? He remembered talking to a woman earlier but she wasn't here but this was different, it was more then that, what were they looking at? This all felt wrong to him...

Eira looked down at Sparky as he chirped positively at her, and she smiled. "You're right... You're a lot stronger than your size suggest, you know?" she said, as she raised one finger to give the Fairfin a friendly nudge. The griffin started forwards towards the others, looking about as she observed, "You must be right... Definitely a similar magic. It's very... colorful here though..." She couldn't help but keep a smile as she watched the little sparkling lifeforms flitted about. And after that strange magic occurrence, she was feeling surprisingly good, despite being in her icy griffin form.

Rahab grumbled in response to Terra's concerned comments, "I'm not hallucinating - I swear there's a castle right there," he says with a pointing talon towards the barn. "...Am I?" He squinted. His vision is definitely swimming by now, and suddenly he actually doubts his own reasoning. "I could use a huge nap right about now," he muttered under his beak.

"Like Sparky said, I think this is the same magic as the Vaseterm's castle disguise," Eira said as she approached. "I see a castle, too. I don't know why only Ray-Ray and I see it... But it has to be a magic thing going on. Regardless, let's get inside," the griffin asserted as she walked towards its entrance, flicking a tail tip to beckon everyone with her.

Rahab followed, currently more focused on finding a nice square of floor to crash rather than getting Crimson off right now. They'd figure something out once he got there.

Fiona's gaze snapped up to Rahab when he told them he was about to fall over. "AH! Right!!"
However, as she was about to hop off, Terra offered his help, and started asking his questions.

The Elemental looked to the barn, then to Rahab and back as Terra referred to that and the griffin insisted he was seeing a castle. She really had no clue what was going on either, what Rahab was seeing, or how to really begin answering Terra's questions. Her expression showed how awfully concerned she was, though--which only increased as the ghostly Dreamer frantically spoke.

When Eira and Sparky also joined in, then Eira began leading the way to the barn, the Elemental finally said, "Yeah, it's me, Terra! Let's... Let's just focus on helping Rahab inside--then we can talk more!" She quickly leaned so Crimson could see her again, adding one last thing, "You're doing great! Just keep breathing like that, we're gonna help you out!" Then she jumped off of Rahab's back and tried to help support the griffin as he moved, glancing at him, then to Terra, and then to Crimson, her concerns about each of them flashing through her mind.
//Gah, come on, we're safe now...! We gotta fix everybody up...!!//

Terradream glances to everyone as they're all speaking, standing there blankly for a moment before nodding his head and trying to help Rahab get up and move. //At least Fiona's here, she's here with me... But what're we going to do though? There's probably not going to be anyone else here, I don't think the Vaseterm are here--no, they would've come out and found us already if they were, so we're here alone, and everyone's injured and corrupted--what're we going to do?! We don't have a medic! Are there even going to be medical supplies in there? I don't even have my bag because I left it back there with the... with those /things!!/ Moons, I'm so USELESS!// Terra thinks to himself...

Sparky gives Eira a big grin and rubs up against her clawed finger when she nudges him, then quickly turns his focus on the group, specifically his Dreamer partner, who he can immediately tell is not doing well mentally just by the look on his face. He hops off and flies away from Eira over to Terra and tries to land on his shoulder. Oddly enough, for some reason or another, it's almost as if there's not enough room for him there now, but that doesn't bother the bright Fairfin at the moment. "... Yo, one step at a time, bossman, we haven't even been here long and I feel this place is Sparky approved when it comes to safety, so let's tackle all your worries one step at a time."

Terra doesn't make any reply or comment back to Sparky right now, but he does grimace slightly.

//Yeah, that was Crimson!// Glory again replies to Anna, then frowns slightly at what her friend says afterwards. //I will! I'll let you know! Be careful with Rage, he's really powerful--and make sure the boys are careful too!//

Crystal watched Edgar disarm the smoking device and stick it to himself, ‘so they can be turned off..’ she thought, wondering if she should help find the rest of those too.

She moved to start also looking for the other machines causing the smoke and music, but while passing the drones most recently cleared away spot she stopped when she saw the red droplets marking the floor..

The girl stared at it for a moment, then slowly moved some more stuff to further reveal more of the path. Crystal looked up in the direction it seemed to lead then glanced back behind her at the others. She saw how chaotic it was and how everyone was rather occupied, so she shifted her eyes back to the area the drops lead towards, ‘I shouldn’t do this alone given the obvious.. but they need to keep a handle on Jason.’ Crystal knew very well it was a bad idea, but she began to slowly follow the path.

...It was a bit easier to hear and shout across the room thanks to Edgar clearing out one of the blaring smoke bombs.
"GOT IT!" Boreas called back to Jason, then proceeded to answer his taunt, "NOPE, NOT DONE YET!"

Boreas added on to his previous plan by attempting to use his magic to cause ice to sprout up closely around Jason. The Elemental was intending to wall the orange-haired boss in and obscure his view.

He didn't know if Crystal was finding anything, but at this rate, he was needing to put all of his focus into his magic, so he shouted to the mares, "BACKUP WOULD BE APPRECIATED OVER HERE!"

The villainous Jason was about to start yelling back at his adversary when the ice began to rapidly forming around him " - WHAT?! " Scarlett's puppet set back as the ice formed an enclosed cage a round him, he smirked " DUDE, YOUR NOT PUTTING ME ON ICE! I KNOW THIS TRICK MR. FREEZE! " his breath was Frosty do to the cold, he was already reaching into his pocket for something, Jason pulled out several small desks and start placing them on the ice wall, they flashed with a little light... the Orange hair shapeshifter was bobbin his head to the Rhythm of the music that was still betting away, to him it wasn't that loud, he had special ear piece in that control the volume of what he was hearing, witch gave him a big advantage but he was going to have to make it were he couldn't hear anything for a moment which he just did.

" RIGHT!" The Vanguard shouted back to Boreas and then added " BE READY FOR ANYTHING! JASON ALWAYS HAS SOME KIND OF TRICK ON HIM! " She used this opportunity to get over to her comrade that got tied up she used her summon sword and started to work on cutting the binding.

The other Mare that got push back shook herself and got up, she was a little disoriented but caught on quickly and got herself in a position behind Jason ice wall " in this situation the best option master Jason could use is fire, explosions or sound!"

Edgar was going though more of the scattered clothes, he had headed over to one of the spots were the smoke was coming from and found other one of the small devices, he picked it up and turned it off just like the other one, before placing it on himself the little drone look up, it was odd that the smoke alarm and sprinklers didn't go off, he made a 'hmmm' humming sound, maybe it was heat that set them off? Though it was probably a lucky thing that they didn't go off, if everyone got wet that probably makes things worse. With that thought he put the device on himself.

Edgar was heading towards other spot when he returned were was Crystal, he turned and seen the human girl going deeper into the store, it was odd, no one else was over there and there wasn't any smoke, it was odd, it was odd... he headed over towards her but stopped noticing the trail of blood himself, IT WAS VERY SUS

As Crystal ventured in there would be more and more mannequins, many had fashionable clothes on, but that wouldn't change the dark and creepy display poorly lit human figures in odd shapes and poses...the sense of something watching, that something could be hunting would grow if getting closer.

* drip... drip...drip... * was a fant sound and in center of the group of mannequins was a pool of blood and above it looked to be something hanging, a bloody bag of some kind...0

Ah, thank you Tiger for the 0 at the end of that post, that's really what Shadow needed to add

But! I think that's everything? I know Shadow wanted to edit her last post that she did last weekend, so I didn't get that one. Let me know if I missed anything, guys!

I'll take care of that now!

The red king had just as many questions as they all did but his were more on who were these people? He knew them, yes? But at the same time didn't // she talking to me?... just like the other woman from earlier.... but... but how can they hear me?... // he wondered if this was a dream but the feeling wasn't the same, this was real.

The red king looking into Fiona eyes, something was strange about her, she looked human but he knew she was not, there was something about her eyes... something was odd about her, he couldn't tell exactly what she was however something felt different with her then the others, he wanted to ask her if they knew each other but she seem worried about the others, so perhaps now wasn't the best time for questions so he simply replied ".... thank you..." though through Crimsons helmet his voice would be distorted and lose his tone of sincerity
As the Griffin headed towards the structure the red king with his many thoughts stay quiet, he turned his head to look towards who the long brunette woman was talking to // ... is?... is he a spirit? But...why is he a spirit? I...I don't understand... why is he still like this?...// this confused him, he knew his uncle rarely allowed this so what was the reason? But one thing the red king did know, Terradream was a mess, they all were but he since Terra was at a breaking point " ... your friend is right... this place evil will not tread here lightly...."he turned his head again to look out towards where Rahab was going "....you are on the grounds of a light house...." the red king Mumble, he didn't know what other words to call it, but it was a safe place, he knew it was, they were being escorted by Griffins and Bellezzas, and just like an old memory he felt safe in the presence of his friends. //... but this is not right.... what has happened?....// worry fell on the red king his friends, these people were not well, all of them were suffering in one way or other, this was more concerning when he looked to Eira, she out of everyone had the most since of corruption, he slowly reached his hand out toward her, he wanted to help her, he wanted to help all of them but their was something about her, he wish to save his friend and stop their suffering.

To some the structures just seem like a farmhouse, though its function was actually an recycling center, with a sign saying ' Paradise recycling center, were the broken can be renewed '
But to the Griffins it was a Grand Palace. Little did they know that what they were seeing was a realm within a realm, a place that wasn't quite in this world's reality.

The structure would have stayed hidden as a farmhouse if it wasn't for Eira going before the group.

It wasn't until the Griffin made it to the doorway that things began to change... the farm style door sparkled with magic as it became a grand door with 6 winged Griffins on both sides, just above them was the four phases of the silver moons, the Griffins wings came together and what had the door closed, but the figures moved, spreading their Wings open and with that showing the way inside.

The entranceway would be stunning, it was a large room with two stairways that came together at the top and from their look to be more doors.There was a large chandelier hanging in the center of the room, it had what looked like silver Fairfins holding the glowing balls that was lighting the room.

On the ground floor, the white with silver decorations floor was polish to wear you could see your own reflection in it. Just ahead was a desk receptionist desk made out of Polish Stone and behind it was there was hallway underneath the balcony of the stairway.

Mine you that everything in this room was quite large, more subtle for someone dragon size then a human but whoever Design This Place must had thought about size different and had a place for steps leading up to desk and both items for smaller guests, On the desk was a small silver bell, a book and quill, but most of all a Siamese cat napping next to a large Yellow Lantern.

Things to also take note of in the large room was that there were cats everywhere, cats were sitting on the stairs, walking around or napping in places, some of which were chairs off to the side that looked like a waiting area. there would be cat trees here and there to, along with a box of cat toys over in the sitting area

(Aaaah, Sparky looks so cute and awesome!! I'm assuming that's what he looks like now in the RP?

/Very interesting.../)

Catch was trying to fight back is anxiety, he had to keep his emotions in check for both there sake but drew harder as Rage explains what he was planning but as his brother talks to the Forsaken Lord and then explains his plan,the Dreamer prince nerves easy up a little //...yeah....// he hesitated, not sure if he should dump everything on his friend right now even though some of it was probably obvious so he just stuck to what was going on now //yeah that sounds like plan.... I'm not even sure how he expects me to find Malice, other then he always seem to find me....// he glace down at his injured leg and remembered what the nurse said about it, was it because of that shard that The Nightmare King could find him? But now that it was out would tracking him be harder ? but there was what Rage keep calling the Dreamer prince, a white haired freak... // I-I don't exactly know how he expects me to find Malice other than? Maybe because I'm part Vaseterm? They all got white hair and apparently they can use their visions to find people...I did it once already but...I really don't what to try again, I don't think I can see visions without being in that dark form and I...I rather not, something was very wrong with Catty, I think he completely lost it... but more importantly we can't let this guy find and kill Malice....//

( HI Fluffy!! that he does hehe eue )

(And hallo!

...Hmmmmm...)

(Black and red are an interesting combo here...)

Weaver can feel just how much Catch is freaking out, and that doesn't sit well with him. //Hey, calm down, regardless of whatever happens, we'll work through this. Have a little hope, brother!// he tells his friend. Weaver makes sure to keep positive, sure, maybe he can't feel much of anything warm himself, but maybe by being determined he can help Catch? He's not entirely sure, but he hopes that can work. //I'm not gonna ask you to try and see a vision, honestly I didn't even know you could control your visions, but I want you to stay in your true form too. Especially if Catty's gotten worse, but... Hold onto that thought for later, we need to talk about a lot of things, but now's not the time or place. I'm gonna try to talk Danny here into letting us split up, alright?//

Fiona focused hard on keeping Rahab stable as they went, not quite feeling the best herself, but continuing on. She also continued to worriedly glance to everyone as they went. They were so close!

The Elemental blinked hard upon watching the farmhouse door transform into something unbelievably different--now it /definitely/ looked more like the entrance to a castle... Or... A lighthouse? Several different things had been mentioned now, and Fiona was still trying to simply understand everything they had just been through.
...All she could think right now was just '/help everyone/' and '/whoa./'

Once they were inside the very fancy lobby, Fiona briefly observed their surroundings. How were they supposed to get help here? Was there first aid somewhere? At first she'd thought they would probably be the only ones there, especially after seeing the empty remains of the city outside... But this place was definitely not like the rest of the city, and definitely not a barn somehow, and also HUGE. There were cats everywhere, and why were there cats everywhere?? THERE WASN'T TIME TO THINK ABOUT THAT, THEY NEEDED HELP.

"Uh--HEY! HELLO?! Is anyone here?!" She called.

There were a couple upsides to Crystal following the blood, given she was getting some extra distance from the smoke and music.. But there were some downsides too.. which was literally everything else about the whole situation. She was leaving the last shred of safety she had by walking off and away from the others, going after signs that might lead her to someone who wanted nothing more than for her to be dead. And maybe the next worst part was that the store seemed to be getting more and more ominous the further she went..

Nothing could really describe the extent of how uneasy she felt. Crystal could feel her body beginning to tremble as she went along, but she tried to keep it under control. She stepped carefully through the darkened space and scanned the area with every bit of progress she made, trying to ignore the mass amount of mannequins and the feeling of being watched.

The girl stopped short when she saw the bloody bag hanging in the center of the mannequin ring.. Her stomach twisted as she looked down at the puddle on the floor. Crystal didn’t want to go any further, but she also couldn’t turn around now, more or less afraid to turn her back on this creepy display.. ‘What in the worlds do I do now..?’

(Hello~ I’m hereeee, but had to write my post because I didn’t do it over the week like I’d normally do x))

(Hey Galaxy! I get that--I kinda did the same thing with Fiona. XD

How're ya doing?
...I hope this week has been better for ya than the past couple...?)

(Hey Galaxy! Yeee, that's quite alright! X3

I ditto Fluffy's questions!)

( HI Galaxy!! Welcome! X3
Haha that ok!
I ask the same to! How you been? )

// Alright, Alright... I just hope I didn't get us in more of a mess then what we were in...// the Dreamer prince let out a sigh, he then stay quiet to listen to the conversation between his brother and the Forsaken Lord.
" Malice? "Rage rolled his shoulder as he thinks " yeah, that sounds familiar, I think that what he also go by, I can never keep up with names and titles, there all pointless in the end " the Forsaken Lord then pointed at Dreamcatcher again to answer Weaver question " I don't know about now but he was one of those wing white haired freak that finds things, now he just looks like one of those Royal Dreamers " he then lean closer with a hand on his chin as he examined both Catch and Weaver " hmmm, you look familiar now like this but I can't seem to place it, you two are brothers?"

Hearing Catch's telepathic comments and his tone reminds Weaver a little of when they both were in the prison cell and Catch was a mess. //... I know this has been bad for everyone, and you're practically broken... but what all actually happened to you, to get you this down, Catch...? And how much worse must everyone else be?// Weaver thinks, not saying this to his friend this time, but then he looks back to Rage.

"Fair enough," Weaver says back to the Forsaken Lord, forcing a faint smile again as he listens, and he huffs quietly when Rage asks his last question. "Wellll, sort of? We're not actual brothers or related or anything, but we've been friends since we were fawns, so we like to think of ourselves as brothers," the Nightmare rambles, then says, "But hey, Catch can't see visions or anything while he's like this, and he's injured too, he can't help you out quite as much as he normally could, so we'll have to do things a little differently... How about we split up? Maybe you could keep searching in the area around here, Danny, and me and Catch can look off somewhere else? Then if we find Malice, we can come back around here if you're still in the area, and we can tell you where we found him. Whaddya think about that?"

"Huh?" Danieru thought about the whole thing with Weaver and Catch being brothers but move on from that. The Forsaken Lord mold around what the Nightmare suggested that they could slip up, if it waa a trick or not Rage didn't really care, he didn't have much to lose if he trusted them and it was a lie, he had to look for Malice if by himself or with help anyway but on the chance they did keep their word it would make his job a lot easier " sure " he simply replied.
Dreamcatcher breath a sigh of relief with that // thank the moons// he thought to himself and then spoke to his brother // he actually went with it //

Anna was sitting on Catch head and had been listening, she let the boys work it out and was waiting until they were alone to tell them what Glory said

(Eeee~

I’m doing good! And yeah, this week has been a bit better. :> I feel like I’m starting to get back into a better place mentally. I’ve been in better moods more often and have just felt better overall. The weather here has definitely been part of it though, we had a cool front a few days ago and it’s felt so nice in the mornings and evenings. Fall is finally arriving and it makes me happy xD

I hope you guys are doing good too ^^)

(Ooooh, yay, that's awesome to hear, Galaxy! ^-^ I'm really glad to hear you're doing better :3 Definitely glad the weather's been helping, I can also say that the weather's got me in a good mood over here, I'm so happy to be done with summer XD Even though this summer wasn't actually as bad as some other ones!

Yeah, I'm doing good! Much better than last weekend, too X3 I'm in a good mood all around, and excited to RP moorrree~)

"Alright! Well Catch, if that sounds good to you, we've got ourselves a King of Nightmares to find!" Weaver says, putting on as hopeful and cheerful a tone as he can, and giving his Dreamer friend a light, playful punch on his good shoulder. He then telepathically says, //Yeah! Danny's really, really chill for a bad guy, I'm honestly glad you came across him of all people.//

Boreas had to trust that the mares were working towards getting someone to help Crystal... He needed to concentrate on keeping Jason distracted. The Icy Elemental wasn't sure what he might use, he thought sound was most likely, but there was something else he wanted to focus on... The sound/smoke bombs. "BRACE YOURSELF!" He called, started making his way closer to where Jason was, opposite the side of the other mare, while searching for the little machines. (And also being wary of all the wires they had seen at the beginning.)

He managed to find one that had landed in a pile of clothes. He collected some of the clothes for possible future use, and smashed the device with his hammer. With this, he could focus less on using the weather to pull the smoke out of the room...

(Oh my goodness this cover is amazing X'D)

( that great to hear Galaxy! X3
I'm so happy that things have been doing better for you! The Weather can definitely make a big difference, I keep praying for you and those around you that things will work out!
I'm doing much better to! I been having some rough days, mostly with my mood but today Church sermon was very good, a nice toe stepper but also very encouraging )

(That's awesome Galaxy! Really glad to hear you're in a better place mentally. ^v^

Ahhh, the fall weather is really nice. I'm really looking forward to these next upcoming months too!
I second Shadow this time--I'll keep praying for ya, too!

And I'm doing pretty good, too! :>)

(I agree Fade, Sparky's super cool now X'D

And yeah! Prayers all around X3 )

(I hope things will get better for everyone, and I'm glad there has been some positivity amidst everything going on! X)

Eira slowed to a stop at the gate doors of the palace, gazing up at the numerous carvings of griffins on the door, seeming animated to direct them forwards. //What could this place possibly be?...//

She pushed the doors open and led everybody inside to the fantastic sights within. Her beak stayed hanging in awe as she took in the marvelous architecture and the sights, bewildered and amazed at this otherworldly place, hidden away amidst the chaos. It really did feel safe, and she also felt like they weren't alone... Especially considering there were dozens of cats relaxing everywhere you looked. Eira couldn't bring herself to believe that these were just ordinary cats, after everything else they had seen.

Rahab stepped into the main hall and looked around as well, amazed and very, very confused. "'K, I lied. I'm hallucinating. Time to go home," he muttered, though he didn't actually want to go home since this place was plenty safe. The shiny floor looked like a great, cool bed to nap on though...

Edgar flowed after the human girl, he was still away behind and slowed down more when he reach the mannequins, he held his own little robot hands and shook making him nervous beeping sound, he didn't like this at all.

As for the human girl, The source of the spell was coming from here, the Sinister display proved it, however it was been used more then that.... as Crystal was distracted by the ritual scene something grabbed her by her arm and hisss in her mind// YOU EVIL WITCH!! I WILL STOP YOUR POISONING THE KING HERE!// a mannequin had came to life, it had blood mostly covering as Scarlet puppet // HE WILL BE FREE FROM YOUR INFLUENCE AT LAST!!// she screamed with Delight as she rises her other hand and the blood formed it into a blade

Though Jason couldn't hear what was going on the other side of the ice and it was to thick to see through. He rolled his shoulder and then hop shaking his arms out, he was trying to get warmed up for the fight.

His devices he put on the ice went OFF, using a high frequency sound wave to shattered the ice, the Orange hair shapeshifter had his arms up with his Shields active.

The Mare who was behind Jason flinched and grimaced with the sound, she shook her head and was going to charge but seen Jason with his Shields up and ramming into those were the last thing she wanted to do again.

( Lilly going to take over the Mares seen I'm having big brain problems with them )

(*Double thumbs-up* I'll get to working on them right after I do a post for Terra, Sparky, and Glory!)

Terradream, again, stays quiet as things keep happening around him... He doesn't say anything back to Crimson when he makes his comments about being safe here--what does he know about anything that's happening? Granted, there is an air of safety here... Is everything fine? Like it always is after bad things happen? Does this mean he should try to sweep all his panic and stress under the carpet like he normally does, and then carry on as if nothing ever happened in the first place?

Then the barn turns into a grand palace, Fiona starts calling for help, and he barely catches Rahab's comments about hallucinating. //What even is real anymore...?// he woefully wonders, noticing Sparky's reddish and much larger appearance as well.

Sparky helps out Fiona in calling out to anyone who could be here, and after turning slightly so he's not shouting right in Terra's face, he calls out, "AAYYOOOOOO There's some strangers here!! Anyone wanna welcome us in?! We've got some people that are hurt and really messed up, and it'd be really nice if someone could help us out! Pleeeeeaaaaasssee?!?"

After having given Rihanna her last warning about Danieru, and now having her full attenion on Crimson, she notices how odd he's acting now, and starts to worry a little. "... Crimson? How're you feeling now?" she asks, looking at the glowing green spot on his helmet where his eye is.

The girl had no idea what she was looking at, the scene in front of her wasn’t quite like anything she’d ever seen or heard of before, she only knew that by how it looked it couldn’t be good.

When something seized her arm and a new voice that she could only assume was Scarlet entered her head, Crystal gasped in shock and whipped around to face whoever had a grasp on her.

Her eyes quickly scanned the terrifying possessed mannequin, “I’m- I’m not an evil witch-“ she grunted as she frantically and unsuccessfully tried to pull her arm away. Crystal grimaced at the screams, and seeing the blade forming, she tried to free herself again. This time also using her foot for more force to try and shove the mannequin backwards.

(NICE POST GALAXY! *Throws cookies*)

(*catches one of said cookies* THANKS!)

(YOU'RE WELCOME!! *throws myself*)

Dreamcatcher nodded his head and forced a grin " sounds like a plan to me brother! " The Dreamer prince then started on his way in the opposite direction from the Forsaken Lord, still holding his nervous smile // I am to, I guess.... It just feels off that he this way when he supposed to be one of Soledormir Forsaken.... // really he didn't know what to think about the Forsaken as a whole, the most he knew was Malice and though Dreamcatcher didn't like the guy and had every right to hate him, the Malice he knew seem less and less from the legendary monster who lurk in old stores, Mal was still a monster in Catch eyes don't get him wrong. Then there was the others Rage talk about, Death? Who was that, had then met that guy yet? Then there was Soledormir will... who was that? Did they all have other names just like Malice with Revenge, noe he wondered who was Void, wasn't he one of them? Void was definitely a creepy, but other then that he didn't know much about him // ...I think some time we should just sit down and talk to figure some of this stuff out, like who are the others he mentioned? //

Anna finally joined the boys telepathically, a little chime went off to let them know she joined the mind party// whoo... that was pretty intense there but you boys pulled it together! // she grind looked back at Weaver and then patting Catch on top of his head

The red king watch how the doors opened up, this didn't surprise him at all, why shouldn't it? But the others seem to not know.

He stayed quite because no one had been speaking to him nor did this situation seem to require him to make a Comments, clearly no one knew what this place was even after him saying what it was...but then was it that? If felt familiar like the lighthouse but was it not that? It did feel different at the same time, purer so seen he didn't fully know what he was talking about the red king didn't say anything at all for now. // why... why do I know this place?... is that girl here? ...I... I don't think so, it would have been nice if she was.... I hope she in good care....//

It took a moment for the red king to realize someone did speak to him, he wasn't use to that, he turned his head to look at the Glory ".... pardon?...but are you addressing me? " he asked, if it wasn't for his helmet the look and tone would have been enough to show his confusion in Surprise.

Some of the cats scattered as others became curious with the new arrivals.

The cat on the desk cracked its eye open to see who was yelling.
Then a nervous male voice spoke up " Oh! Uh, sorry about that! Yes! Wednesday! Eh, I-I mean Welcome! " some rustling sounds came from over towards the desk " let see here, what does the paper say again.... great guests warmly, ok, it was kinda a bad start but made it though that... lalala, ok right next! I ask if they need help or assistance! " a loud flap sound came from the desk like something just slammed their hands down on top " how can I assist you! " The mysterious voice practically yelled, and yet no one could be seen

With that in the way now, the first mare briefly takes a few cautious steps back and looks back at her fellow Vaseterm, where the one in her human form finally cuts through and frees the other one in her true form. With the both of them freed up, the first mare makes sure they see when she jerks her head in Jason's direction, implying for them to help deal with the orange-haired villain and support Boreas, while she tries to get to Crystal. While Boreas is still attempting to distract Jason, the first mare then tries to more quietly start moving towards the direction Crystal went, yet still keeping her guard up in case Jason notices her and makes her his target.

// LIES! // Scarlet screamed and went to impel the evil human, she wanted nothing more then to set her king free,, but her mannequin body wasn't the sturdy of things and she stumbled back and fell over popping her arm off that still hung onto the girl.

Blood lust would not stay down for long, the mannequin body twist and flipped itself around in an unnatural way for a person to move, but she wasn't a person and was already getting back up...// I WILL KILL YOU!! // she screams again

(Oh wait, I visited the Memes briefly, I MUST SWAP!!)

"Whoa, whoa, hang in there, Rahab--you're not seeing things!" Fiona objected to the griffin, trying to make sure he didn't just flop into a confused, feathery pile on the floor. "/I'm seeing this stuff, too!/ Whatever it is...
...I think!
...I'm... Pretty sure it's good...?"

She jumped slightly when a voice answered her and Sparky's calls. She hadn't been expecting that, but she was very relieved, so much so, she didn't even really think about what this person said. The Elemental looked to the desk... And saw no one but the cat. Then she started looking all over--in the general direction of the voice, and even far from where it seemed to emanate from. Her eyes kept drifting to the cat on the desk, though, as if that were the person speaking.
Fiona loudly, essentialy repeated what Sparky had said: "Can you help us? We've got friends who've been /really/ roughed up!

...And uh... Where are you?
/Are you that cat...?/" She mumbled that last part.

//Yeah...// Weaver mentally sighs in reply to Catch, quickly dropping his fake smile once Catch is walking away from Rage, //Yeah, we do, we really do, that's like I was saying--// he pauses for a moment when Anna joins them both, then smirks at her and telepathically says, //Yeah! Hey, I knew we'd be alright! But anyway, I think you're right, Catch, we really need to sit down and talk about things, everything, really, we need to talk about the bad guys, we need to talk about you and Cataclysm--honestly, we need to talk to everyone else, too. Eater and I have been busy, but even we've only been able to get around to certain people, and well, before not everyone was too keen to see a Nightmare jerk, anyway... And I don't blame 'em.// The Nightmare in question sighs quietly at that, but, after looking ahead briefly, Weaver looks back to Rihanna and asks, //Hey Anna, can you help with remembering some of that stuff I just mentioned? If we ever get a time to sit and talk after all this is over?//

The smoke and music were now halved, but still present. Boreas allowed himself to use a little less of his weather-manipulating magic... Then he could hear a slight, different noise, followed by the sound of shattering ice as Jason broke it using his gadgets. The Captain shifted his attention to the orange haired boy now, wondering how to keep him occupied...

...Through all he knew about Jason, and the state he was in now, a rather risky idea pieced itself together in the Elemental's foggy mind. He quickly hovered across the ground and approached Jason's shield from the side, staying out of the boy's field of vision as much as he could. Then he landed, lifted one hand, and politely knocked on the glass. "Yo, want to continue your evil monologue?" He asked, already starting to jump back in cautious preparation for whatever he might do.

// it feels like forever since we just talked, your right... we all haven't talked much, and every time we try something always seem to come up, if it something trying to kill us it some random vision that happens// the Dreamer prince let out a sigh himself, he wondered just how messed up everyone else was, he knew Terra and Sparky were ghosts, how do you even bring people back to life? Then their wasEira and Purity were corrupted by the Abyss, a monster they knew almost nothing about and had no idea what to do even again it, then their was Fiona and her corruption and how do they help her? Alex he didn't know much on but somehow was in love with Malice which to any sane same person sounded insane, then Hirro was a piece of work all on his own, last was Crimson which he was a mess, it really felt no one was ok on the group, except for Crystal and Boo but even they had something, both were taken from their homes and family's.

// will do! I'll take mental notes! // Anna replied cheerfully. She then remembered what she wanted to tell them // oh! Glory said that glowing red light came from something Crimson did and they were able to escape the monster and there apparently somewhere safe now //

Eira glanced around confused when she heard a voice begin speaking frantically. She looked at each cat that was looking at them, wondering if one of them was speaking, then traced the sound of the voice to the desk- though she couldn't see anyone but the cat on the desk. Was it talking?
The griffin tilted her icy eagle head. "Yes, uh... We have people in need of medical assistance, if you can help us... And who might you be?"

Rahab squinted at Fiona, finding it odd that she could see everything too. He could think into it mroe, but he just grumbled something under his breath, probably unintelligible, and looked in the direction of the invisible person at the desk.
