" He said....None can escape their nightmares....not even Rage" He walked over to a bag and pulled out some fruit he had collected. Strange orbs that gave off a soft blue, purple, or pink glow. " With the creatures that harry us now I am sure he meant the demon"

“Whose?”, he asked confused, “is it greed”, he said eating. Do we need to go back in to find him. You said someome was blocking your way into the dreamworld”

He handed each of them a fruit before sitting down. A burning aura brushed his arm leaving a mark. " I see....You obtained Rage now." He looked over at Nasr and considered everything carefully. " Must be Greed. With Rage in your control, Fear is free to target the lead demon."

He looked back at them when he heard the boy bite into the fruit. " Let us wait a bit. He may be fighting with Fear to control it as you do Rage. If he does not wake soon or things turn wrong then we should look for him"

Ok”, he’s said looking at the mark, “I need to vontrol it if it injury’s that much”, he said looking at his arm “we will wait then”

He placed his hand under the mark as he observed the damage. The burn was large, taking up two thirds of his upper arm. " Yes, Rage is the strength of the three. If both of you can claim mastery over your demons then no one will defeat you two"

Fascinated by the glow of the fruit juice, Pavol painted his tail feathers. He stood and shook his tail as he observed his work. With a satisfied nod he began to wander off.
" Don't go past the glow of the fire!" Yuuma said, grave concern filled his voice and expression.

The boy kept walking, holding himself with pride. " It's just a forest. I want to see how bright my tail glows now!"
Nasr shifted to his side and chuckled in his sleep. A few drops of blood fell on his bed when he dropped his hand. Now the forest filled with an eerie presence. The trees creaked as a chilly wind blew through. It felt like a storm was coming though whispers and haunting laughter could barely be heard.
Pavol stopped and looked around as shadows moved through the branches and lights blinked in out of existence. He knew this was reality and swallowed hard. As he began to step backwards, the light of the fire vanished. The flames still burned but no comfort was offered.

The flames turned green to cast a chilling glow over them. Within the middle of the camp now stood a twisted tree with a look of terror. Before the boy could scream, the roots wrapped around his legs and began to pull him under.

Yuuma got to his feet in record time and stretched his hand towards the boy. " Oh geez!" the colors of night rushed towards him but before it could reach the boy, Yuuma was pulled into the forest in a split second by something unseen.

The light of the fire threatened to fail again. During this time a second shadow appeared at Shinigami's feet. Though hard to make out, a familiar voice said something before rushing the tree. It lit with purple flames which caused it to scream and thrash about. This forced it to release Pavol. Talons of shadow rose from the ground and pulled the boy out of the earth. He scrambled in full panic to Shinigami.

Shinigami took the boy to his side not bothering to stand up, “I guess he’s waking up”, he said then looked at the fire, and then the tree, “who is it this time”

While the tree burned, the shadow bolted around the edge of the light. It weaved in and out of the forest chasing something. Voices and laughter jumped around the camp making it difficult to locate them.

Suddenly they fell silent, leaving the wind that now forced the trees to bend. Pavol tucked himself further behind Shinigami as the burning tree changed it's shape. Branches to arms and fire to wings, the shadow of a valravn now stood before them. He spoke again as if to answer his friend's question then quickly turned to the fire.

The ghostly form of Fear rose from the fire. The demon was more interested in the boy and it's prey somewhere in the woods. Needing to make a choice, Fear started to reach out towards the boy.

Pavol's heart began to glow as it raced faster than before. He closed his eyes and clung tightly to his "guardian" as he waited for the end. An end that never came.

The demon shrieked as the shadow struck, staying between them and Fear. It was like watching cats with how fast they moved, fazing in out of existence and traveling through the camp. The fight of the dreams revealed how connected Nyctorans were to that realm. Fear's massive claws tore through the shadows chest and stomach, at the same time the wounds appeared on Nasr's sleeping body.

The shadow vanished for a moment giving Fear the time to face the boy once more. Then a new shriek ripped through air. It was terrible enough to make Fear look around. Then the demon vanished into darkness, like it was sucked through a hole.

The fire blew out and rain began to fall. Tension held such a change, waiting for another nightmare but none came. Only a voice that was a bit strained followed the rain. " Damn that hurts..."

“Of course it downs”, he said then stood up, “let’s go get yuuma before fear decides to make him a new prey”, he said then picked up the boy, “ in need to be scared, it just takes you to him. Be calm and leave the rest to me”

Pavol nodded quickly as he tried to calm down. Nightmares awake and asleep were just too much for him. Tail feathers quivering, he looked towards the forest.

Nasr wasn't so keen to get up with his fresh wounds. His talons traced the edge of the tear in his shirt before dropping his head back down. Each drop of rain felt like needles to his wound and caused them run as crimson rivers. " Follow the damaged trees. He left gashes in the trunks as he was pulled away"

“Ok”, he said then walked to his side and drop the boy there, “take care of him”, he said to pavol then made his way to follow the damaged trees. He began to gather some darkness to fphis legs and then started running. He was faster than usual though he didn’t kno

Not having knowledge of healing, the boy look up with concern. He didn't get much say as he watched Shinigami fly away. " O-ok"

Yuuma was resting under a large tree. His dragon form glimmered around him but was fading away. Thin scratches and covered him but compared to Nasr he was fine. The only real concern might be the bruise on his neck that resembled a clawed hand.

He flew onto yuuma’s side, “who did this and point me to where they are”, he asked yuuma. Rage’s aura seemed to be leaking out a little, “an are you fine”

Yuuma looked up at him with a smile. " I'm fine. Just need time to recover." He leaned forward some and looked around. Through such weather it was tough to see anything past a few trees.
" It was a servant of Fear that did this to me. They take on many forms." He said as he stood. Seeing the red aura, he was careful to avoid it.

“Ok”, he said then calmed down his aura and self, “let’s get you back to the camp, we are leaving at first light, they know how to find us now”

" Indeed." His voice calm and focused as he walked along. " The next city is nearby. Once that tower is destroyed we will move to the Wind City"
The rain washed away the tiny dabs of blood he had, hiding the scratches. The sound of it hitting the ground and leaves helped him to think. " In witnessing this fragment of Fear's power we may also chose to move on to the Wind City now. A risk is involved in doing so"

“I’m think of taking us to the wind city now”, he said then helped yuuma up, “we need to get you two fixed up and moving”, he said then began to fly up

" Two?" He looked at him with shock. " What happened while I was gone? Is the boy safe?"


At the camp, Nasr's feathered wings stretched out behind him. Their ghostly form was not a welcome sight for any Nyctoran as a manifesting spirit showed they stood on Death's door.

He was sitting up now, front coated in crimson, talking to Pavol. Small skulls floated between them as the boy poked at them.

“ no demon powers tupill we reach the wind city. Change of plans, we are getting you to that dragon to get rphealed and while that happens I deal with fear”, he said sitting yuuma down gently beside nasr,“fear attacked while onside nasr, I need an explanation”, he said then brpruofht out his notebook, “epwe know how they feel when we attack them now but they don’t understand us and because of that they will feel pain. Whoever they are”

Nasr chuckled as he looked up at his friend. " No powers...easy. Just remember Fear is mine...Lucky he didn't take my head off" The playful tone in his voice did not match his grim state. He lifted his hand to make the skulls fade away. " Alright boy....lesson's over"
Pavol stared at the blood pooling around him for a bit before nodding and stepping back. His head hung low as he watched through his drenched hair.

Seeing the wounds, Yuuma knelt down to take a closer look. " Those are deep...you said he was attacked from within?" He got up and wandered to his bag nearby. As he dug through it he said more. " What you witnessed was a dream battle manifesting in this world. That Nasr took such physical injury from his dreams is a testimate of his hidden power. It means his tie to the spirit realm is strong" He pulled some cloth out that he brought for various reasons and tore a few strips off.

“I see”, he said bending down in front of nasr, “it’s a good thing life chose you and no one else, cause of others won’t have that grin on their face”, he said then looked at his clothes and his clean freak poked utself out, “I need a bath. I’m all red from bold, is there a lakel
