Daigo looked at the strange woman grab his hand as he frowned and took his hand back. "Who the hell are you?..." he asked taking a couple steps back. "what do you mean new here anyway?!...where am I exactly?!...." he asked with a little violent tone since he never really ever talk to anyone before so he didn't know the meaning of being 'nice' or 'mean'.

Lex smiled at seeing X again. It was a long time since they talked, and to be honest he didn't know how he got into his dream. "Where are we?" He asked as a woman entered the room and X dissapeared. Lex was confused, and his friend was gone now. He wasn't too sure what was going on, but he grabbed his blade and sat up. looking at the woman, he didn't know what to say so he went with questions. "Where am i?" He asked now looking confused as well as being it.

Aden looked over at the doctor. "May I?" He asked. Maybe if he could find the brother he could help them. What people didn't know was that Aden was Alice and Xavier's second cousin on there moms side. He had family left, he had someone to take care of. He had worked in this field so long and about a year ago he found out about Alice and her brother. He glanced back at the girl before leaving the room with the doctor. The tall Skinny man looked at Aden, he had never seen Aden so emotional.

Nightmare looked at the boy and laugh a little. "Your in my world.... In my dream." she said as she walked towards him. "Come join me and we can be the best of friends." she said as she held out her hand. "Trust me you won't regret it. I have more power in this world then can be imagined. Want to see?" she asked as she made her umbrella dispered. "I need a friend all of mine of gone and died..." Her big blue eyes filled with fake tears, as a small smile creeped up on her face.

X just laid in bed his heart ache for his sister, after a while he faded back into the dream when he was next to Lex. "What happen while I was gone..." he asked. The young girl stood in front of him still, but the world around the white bed had gotten darker. "Alice?" he asked as he looked up at her, he then looked back at Lex. "This... this is my sister. She can't remember me... I don't know why." he said as he gently reached out for her hand. "What happened to this world?" he asked.
"Lex my friend I don't know how this is working but its good to have a friend by my side.

Light looked around and notice that the world was changing. "No...." she said softly as she got up and ran to the dead land. "Nightmare Come here now!!!" she demanded. "This isn't your home..." she said. "Nightmare if you don't come out now I'm going to come and get you. You know as well as I do you don't want that." Light said, as she got mad she softly glowed a white light around her.

Nightmare looked at the new boy. "I'll be back stay here please." she said. She snapped her figures and a cadge came crashing down around Daigo. "I'll be back I promise." she said as she reappeared in front of Light. "What do you want..." she said to light. Light just rolled her eyes. "Put it back." light said. Nightmare shook her head. "No!" she said.

Light looked at her with narrow eyes. "Now nightmare." she said in a calm voice. "You know you can not have the children, so why do you keep trying?" she asked. Nightmare glared at her. "Its your fault I'm like this..." Nightmare said.

Lex looked back as X reappeared beside him. "Not much has happened.. where did you go?" He asked as he looked from him to the girl in front of them. "Your sister?" He asked not knowing what she really looked like, but he remembered X always talking about her. "And i told you i will help you when I can.." He said with a smile looking at X again.

"He is the one..." His mother said softly behind him. Lex looked back at her. She looked just like she always did, nothing had changed her, and that was good. "how do i?" Lex asked as he was trying to figure out all the puzzle pieces. "Time will show you" she said and disappeared. Lex looked at X "i guess I am here to help you with something here too.." he added and chuckled.

Daigo sat in the cage with a frown on his face as he looked down at the floor with his new found sword in front of him. Her world?....her dream?...what the hell is this all about?! he thought as his anger began to grow inside him causing a black aura to come off his own body, the aura surrounded him like blood dripping off his skin onto the floor slowly. He had heard about the so called 'dream-world' from folktales in the orphanage, he never really believed in fansties so he just shook his head trying to calm down, but that just made it worst. "Wh-whats going on with me?!.....wh-why am I getting so angry...!?" he thought trying to figure out why he felt like something inside him was missing.

Feeling the anger boiling up inside Daigo, Hikaru saw a perfect opportunity to finally get free as he made his way as quickly as he could out of his mind and into the cage with Hikaru. "Hey!...I'm finally out!" he said smiling brightly and stretching out his arms. "Ahh...it feels so good to be out of that mind....not that i know how it feels..." He said laughing at himself playfully.

Daigo quickly looked up at the new male come out of no where as his eyes widened in shock. "wh-w-who're you?!...wh-where did you come from?!" he demanded.

Angle took the guy's hand who reappeared as she moved closer to him raising a brow to him as he introduced her to his friend or that is the relationship that she saw between them. She looked at the darkness and shook her head. "Nightmare is here and Light and DreamKeeper arn't here to protect the dream world from her. Nightmare and Light are the two forces here good and evil you could say though it is more like day and night. Dreamkeeper is the one that keeps them in balance with out her there would be constant battling between the other two. Dreamkeeper is the embodiment of dreams just as the dreamworld is. She is neither good nor evil she is just being." Angle said as she shifted her eye's seeing a bright light then millions of them as they turned into butterflies that escaped a rift in dimentions as Dreamkeeper appeared. The world shifted from darkness to Light as all the dreams filled it Dreamkeeper herself standing so motionless in the middle of the room.


DreamKeeper open her eyes as she gazed up on the new faces the in dream world. She then closed her eyes as she held out her hand as one of the dreams that had turned into a butterflies landed on her finger. " Allowing others who do not belong here is dangerous. Nightmare has done it again. She has threw off the balance. When she does outsiders make it here. Until those two learn who to live along side one another no peace will ever be found here or on earth. Angel you are to stay with Xavier and Lex." She said as a slight grin rose on her lips. "Yes I know who you both are. You have been here before as children. I have gathered your dreams every since you have come into being. I know you and every other being that dares to dream rather well. I better go separate those two before any more damage is done to this world." She said as she shifted into her alt form.

Light looked into Nightmares eyes. "It's not my fault that you chose the wrong side. Change it back.... You know that this place is special to dreamkeeper. Change It bake." she turned the light into energy that resented in her hand. "Or else!" she said. This time Nightmare wasn't going to back down. "Light I have been here longer then you..." she said. Nightmare Made some black energy form in her own hand. "I have powers to." she said.

Aden looked at the small picture "They look like her..." he said softly. "Doc do you mind if I keep this pic?" he asked the doctor. The Skinny man looked at Aden in suprized, when he said that they looked like her. He was going to ask him who 'she' was. Aden put the picture in his pocket. "So she has a brother in a mentel hospital? Witch one is it?" The skinny man asked.

The doctor just looked at them both as he shrugged his shoulders. " To be honest I have been trying to find out myself. I have narrowed it down to two. I would say the one in the country side in the next state over. And of course you can keep it. Well I have to go now if you will please excuse me." He said as he turned abruptly and left the room hurrying to a emergency he was being paged to.

Dreamkeeper appeared between both Light and Nightmare as a sliver aura appeared around her. She held out both hands as silver energy came from them. "ENOUGH!" She said as she glared at them both. "You two must learn to coexistent together. Light you are nothing without darkness as Nightmare is nothing without Light. Together you make a whole. Each one of us are a embodiment of one another. Light you are light and light, good, and hope. Nightmare you are the darkenss, sadness, and pain. And I am the embodiment of both you. There can not be one without the other. You must find the balance with each other. If you two want doing it willingly I'll do it for you. I have both your powers.

Lex understood what was being said to him, and he stood up as another woman entered the room. He stood there still taking all of the information in, and was surprised to hear the woman say that she knew him. He always dreamed of many odd things when he was little so if she remembered him from his breams she could tell why. He was still curious onto what he was going to do to help out his only friend. It must have to do with his sister and her memory, but he didn't know where to even start. After the lady left he looked toward X "alright?.. what we do now?" He asked still holding his blade close to his side as well.

Hikaru looked at Daigo with a grin as he leaned down to his level and flicked him on the forehead. "You really dont recogize me do you?..." he asked with a soft smile as he just pulled back and shrugged his shoulders with a sigh. "Well...I guess I shouldnt be surprised considering you never let me out of that damn head of yours!" Hikaru screamed pointing at Daigo's forehead and laughing a little playfully.

Daigo rubbed his forehead when he felt the little flick to his head as he felt like something just popped inside him. Just feeling the touch of another part of him against his own skin made him feel like the whole world just collasped around him. Wh-w-what was that?!....wh-why did that hurt so much?.. he thought not paying attention to a word that the younger male was saying.

"what was that you ask?..." Hikaru asked with as he backed up against the cage and leaned against it, the reason why he could hear Daigo's thoughts were obvious since they were basically the same person just seperated into two halves. "Its your past, smart one."

X looked up at his sister. "How can we fix it?" He asked. He just wanted to stay asleep forever with his sister. "I will fit if we need to fight." he said as he looked down at the ground. "Sister... Please can you try to remember me?" he said. His eyes filled with tears again. It was as if his heart was going to fall out of his chest. "I need you by my side again." he said softly.

Aden looked down at the pic. "We need to find him." he told the Skinny man. The Skinny man nodded and they both headed towards the car. "What did you mean they look like her?" the tall Skinny man said. Aden looked up from him. "There my mothers sister kids..." Aden said. "She died about four years ago. I didn't know she had kids." he said softly. The Skinny man nodded. "Oh." he said. They road the rest of the way in silence. The Skinny man looked up at Aden. "We'll go another time to find him. I do belive you have a hot date." he said as the car stopped in front of Aden's house. "You have three hours before she comes over." he said. Aden nodded. "Thank you." he said to the Skinny man.

Light wasn't going to back off this time. She was sick of the way Nightmare ached. "Dreamkeeper I won't stand by any longer something must be done." she said, her light only getting brighter. Nightmare roller her eyes. "Fine I'll put it back." Nightmare snapped her figures and the sky went back to normal. "I have something I need to take care of any way." she said. Nightmare diapered and then reappeared in front of the strange young man. "Who's your friend?" she asked. She was in chanted by his new friend. "Will you help me?" she asked the new guy.

Angel just stared at Xavier. She couldn't place his face though she knew some where as if it was in a dream she had seen it before. She faintly remembered that voice. "Your voice sounds like one I have heard before though once here none can be sure what they see or hear." She said as she stared at him. She gently reached out and touched his cheek gently as she gave him a warm smile. "Cheer up your world can't be that bad. I do not know your sister but I promise I'll be by your side as long as you are here." She said meaning every word. Her eyes shifted as she saw the world return as it was making her happy. "This is why dreamkeeper is important. She is the only one who can keep Light and Nightmare in balance with one another. Maybe now you can help her as I try and do."

Dreamkeeper shifted her eyes to Light as she closed them and shook her head. "She has much to learn as you do dear. You wouldn't want a day without her truly it would bore you as it would bore her not to have you. Clam down she has giving you back your power over this realm. Now you have work to do in the human world do you not? A certain human is waiting for you is he not Light? How strange you pick one of them. Though it would appear that we have new guards to add to Alice. Her mother has joined her here. Though this might kill him when he figures out that Alice came here to escape the world and even him because of the pain. The dream world want let her go now...not without a fight just as you wouldn't and neither will nightmare. She is one with everything here this is her home now. We have let her stay to long she no longer even knows her name or her own brother. It dose sadden me slightly Light. Her heart was one of the purest and it was full of love for her brother. Though once she got here we turned her into a protector of the dream world and her heart is still pure but it has forgotten all things of earth . If she stays here much longer she will die in the human world and here. We have drained most of her energy already over the time she has spent here. Her human body is fighting to stay alive. The longer the human's stay the closer they are to death. Every time they enter our world they lose time in theirs and their life. Remember that for your human's sake Light. Don't bring him here if you love him. Children are different they have plenty of youth and energy for their time here not to effect them." She said calmly as she slowly open her eyes and stared at the air in front of her.

Hikaru looked over toward the female as he slowly began to frown from seeing her through the eyes of Daigo already. "And....you are?..." he asked with a little frown, he wasnt angered or worried who it was, rather he seemed a bit curious about her. "help you?...what do you mean 'help you?'?"

Daigo glared over back at the female as his anger began to raise up again and the aura around him from before began to reappear and dripping slowly down his body like blood once more. "Let me out!!" he demanded as he quickly picked up his sword, but right before he could swing it toward the cage; Hikaru grabbed the sword and stopped him. "Dont....we'll get her later...." he said whispering into Daigo's ear.

X felt lost, he was happy to have her by his side, but it wasn't her. "Okay." he said softly. He looked over at Lex. "What are we here to do?" X asked his friend. "If one of us wakes up will what will happen to the other? Lex I have to tell you something if we see each other in the real world." he said. He looked up at his sister. "I want to help. I want to be a part." He said to Alice. "I don't want to live in the other world anymore how do I stay here?" he asked.

Light looked at dreamkeeper. "What do you mean the other world... I've never been there dreamkeeper." she said. "I have had dreams about the other place but never had I been there." she said. "Dream keeper wasn't I born here? If I wasn't I don't remember my life on the other side."

Nightmare smiled at the boy. "I'm Nightmare... I rule the dark side of the dream world. I'm trying to kill light so I can have her land also. Dreamkeeper won't let me do so..." she said with a smile. "Will you help me?" she asked. She like this man, he was dark, even a little darker then she is. "I could use your help."

Hikaru looked back over toward nightmare when he heard her plans, his eyes widened when he heard what she was and what she was planning on doing as he glanced down at Daigo afraid that he'd join her since he was full of hatred and pain at this point. "Dont do it...D-Daigo..d-dont do it.." he said placing his hand onto his shoulder.

Daigo looked down at the floor of the caged room with a frown on his face. At this point all he kept thinking of was joining this female about taking over and destorying light. "If....if I help you....w-w-will you help me on my quest?...." he asked keeping his head down.

Nightmare smiled she opened the cadge that she had put around him. She did it with a snap of her fingurs. "I would." She said, as she walked closer to him. "We can even do your quest first if you would like." she had a missed place smile that crossed her face, her eyes softly glowed red as she got closer to him. "I could you that great power you posses." she said. Nightmare gently touched his cheek. "Light must be stopped. She thinks she's the ruler of the land. I'm sick of being in the shadows." she said as she removed her hand. She turned to the other person. "Who might you guys be? Not that it really matters. You won't even remember me when you guys wake up..." she said.

Aden took a quick shower and then got the apartment in order. He light the candles and began to cook. When he was done cooking he got the table together. "Well Adella maybe we can make this work." he told himself. He walked over the the stereo and put in some music that softly played in the background.

Light looked at dreamikeeper. "I must sleep I'm getting tired." she said. She snap her figures and reaper in the small house she called home in the dream world. She walked over to her bed and laid down. Light slowly began to drifted off to sleep.


Adella woke up from her nap, she slowly stretched out as she looked over at the clock. "Shit..." she said. She was running late for the dinner Aden was going to make her, grabbing the phone she call him. "Aden I'll be there in about 30 min. I just woke up." she said. "Okay sorry about that." she said as she hung up the phone and began to get ready.

Dreamkeeper just stared at Light as she faded from the world a dark grin appeared on her lips as she giggled. "Foolish child you are Adella. You told me as your sister did, you wanted to stay here with me forever. You singed your life away to me that night at the lake when you and your sister came to me. Your human body can't keep you alive drifting back and forth forever. You will have to wake one day from this beautiful dream of yours Light and see that you must chose your heart or your soul. I hold your soul and he hold's your heart. You are becoming useless to me as Nightmare is. I will have to chose two new ones shortly to take your place. One to feed the dreamworld with kindness and hope but most of all love. The other with the sorrows of life that makes children grow up. You have been here to long now both of you have. I need new children now to teach and feed from." She said as she stood alone in the middle of the dream world as a silver aura appeared around her and swept threw the dreamworld giving it all the dreams she had gathered from the human world and changing it with the dreams.

Angle smiled at Xavier then at Lex as she looked to the outside and closed her eyes as the flash of silver light passed them. She then open her eyes as she stared back outside seeing how beautiful everything looked. Though she knew there would be a darker side to it soon enough. She then looked back to the guys as she stared at them wandering why they would want to stay here in the dream world. "No one gets to stay here by choice. You must be chosen to stay here. You have to have a purpose to stay here. My purpose is to act as guard to protect Dreamkeeper and the children that she brings here. If you have no purpose you can not stay. Do you both not miss your own world?"

Hikaru looked at Daigo seeing how he was beginning to grin a little, he was starting to actually like this girl. No....h-h-hes going to do it! he thought as he let go of his shoulder and jumped back a couple of a feet away from the two of them. "You dont need to know who we are....and Daigo..i...if you follow her, know that I wont help you.."

Daigo slowly glanced over toward Hikaru with a frown on his face once more. "And I care?...." he asked still not believing him when he said that he was just another part of himself. Wh...why do I feel like I know him so well?... he thought clentching down onto his fists tightly and keeping his gaze away from nightmare.

Nightmares smile slowly faded. "So are you going to help me or not?!!" she asked. Her eyes were now glowing a darker red. "If you don't help me you better prepare to fight me... I don't think you can handle what I can do." She snaped and fire aperd in her hand. "I am Nightmare... I am the one they are afraid of." as she spoke big black wing came out of her back. "So make your choice and don't be a fool." she said.

X got up from the bed. "I won't leave you not again." he told her. "They may have taken me away from you in our world, but they can't take me from you here." he said as he held on to her hand. "Take me with you. I will talk to who ever I need to talk to." He said. He begged her with his eyes not to send him away.
The doctors walk into Xeviers room. "He's not responding. I think he may have given up." The doctor said as he looked down at the sleeping child. "We will need to do something about this." he said as he handed the nurse the clipboard and walked out of the room, before leaving he turned to the nurse. "He our biggest trouble maker If we lose him it won't be that big of a deal. He dosen't have a family, even though he has a sister." he said as he walked out.
the nurse gently touched his cheek. "Please X... don't give up. Your sister need you here. Don't forget..." she said as she put the clip board back at the foot of his bed. She then walked out of the room.


Aden opened the door to find Adella dressed in a short black dress. "You look amazing..." he said softly his eyes unable to move from her. "Thank you."she said with a smile as she walked in, the smell of lavander filled the room she closed her eyes for a moment to saver the smell. "It looks amazing Aden. Its been so long since we have done this." she said softly.

Daigo slowly lifted his head a bit as he turned it slightly to look at Nightmare, he didnt seem very shocked or afraid since his thoughts were still on the other male trying to figure out if what he told him was true or not. "Fine...I will." he said with a little sigh and picked up his own sword sheathing it behind his own back. The aura that had surrounded Daigo's body before was slowly disappearing from sight as he didnt really pay any attention to that in the first place. "So...what is your first move?...." he asked looking away from her and looking back at the direction he saw Hikaru walk away.

Hikaru walked along the wasteful ground with his head held up high acting as if he didnt care for what Daigo chose to do. He may not have shown it, but he still did care since he knew it would affect his own body from being able to stay materialized for very long. "Hmm....h-he chose to go with her...th-t-this is going to be bad for me...." he said to himself with a quiet whisper looking down at his hand seeing it slowly fade away, but then forcing his own aura to keep it soild.

A nurse walked threw the room and checked on Alice as she slept. The nurse was about to leave when she heard a sound and looked back to where Alice was. Her eye's widen as she saw a stream of blood tricky down the girls side. She quickly ran to Alice's side and gazed at it. It looked like something had just made a cut up her side. She had been in the room with her and no one was in there and there where no knifes. The girl hadn't moved she hadn't woken she had been asleep for three years and now this. The nurse let out a scream as a Doctor and other nurses came in and hurried to see what was the matter. "Get her out now!" The Doctor yelled as two guards appeared and quickly carried the nurse who had found Alice away he and the others quickly cleaned the wound and and bandaged it. The Doctor let the guards take care of the nurse. He knew she hadn't done it but who else could have it was only her and Alice. Alice couldn't move and wasn't awake to do the wound to herself that only left the nurse. He had found out after the strange pair had left Alice's room earlier the address and phone number for Aden. He walked to his office and picked up his phone and called the number.


Angle turned and looked at X as her smile faded. She feel to the floor as she landed on her knees holding her side as she looked down at it seeing blood. It was the first time she had seen blood in a while. She then shifted her eyes to where she knew Nightmare was. "Stay here please." She said in a irritated voice as she rose pulling her sword out in front of her as a red aura appeared around it. She quickly ran from the building fading from sight like a mirage. She followed the rift that Nightmare was making by summoning her powers in the dreamworld to where Nightmare was. Before Nightmare could hurt the others she quickly materialized before them her sword out ready to defend them as her eyes glared at Nightmare taking the same look that DreamKeeper's eye's held. There was no reason for words Nightmare knew why she was there. She knew the human had chosen her but he was still a human and had to be protected at all coast. He didn't know what powers he was playing with and the dangers here she knew. Dreamkeeper would be disappointed in her if she didn't try and save them. "Choosing her side will only lead to your end. She will kill you and bath in your blood. You can not stay here if you do you will die. You are not of this world so how can you understand what danger you are getting yourself into? The only one to make a pack with is Dreamkeeper herself. Ask Nightmare who her master is. Even the mighty Nightmare must obey the child that owns her. Don't be fooled Nightmare is just a child with a bad temper she is not the powerful being she is trying to fool you she is." Angel said as she kept her eyes on Nightmare knowing how tricky the girl could be.

Nightmare rolled her eyes. "My dear girl... You have spent to much time with Light and Mother." she said as she glared at Angel. "You know not what you talk of." she said as she walked over to Angels side. "Oh wait I bet Light sent you didn't she..." Nightmare said as she turned back to the boy. "Don't m ind her. I will not hurt you." she said.

Aden looked over at Adella. "I have a feeling it's bad." he said to her. She just rolled her eyes. "Get it then." she said. She was hurt a little bit. They had just started to eat. She sat there as she began to eat her food. Aden ran to the phone and answered it. "Yes this is Aden what going on?" he asked a little confused. He heard the panic in the doctors voice. "Is she going to be okay? I see I'll be there in a few." He hung up the phone. "I have family." he said softly. Adella's eyes widened. "You may come with me if you would like." he said to her. Adella nodded. "I would love to." she said softly not knowing what was really going on. "I'll be right by your side." she said.

The doctor hung up the phone and walked back to the room where Alice was now with two guards outside of it. He dismissed them and walked other side. He was happy to see that her side was not bleeding threw the bandages and gently tucked the covers around her. He took a set beside her and kept a watch on her noticing that her brain waves where spiking again as they had that day for no reason. He wandered what was making them spike then fade away. There was something that was waking her from her coma if only for seconds.

"The problem is I know what I speak of Nightmare. No they didn't have to you brought me here. And don't falter yourself Nightmare. We both know when she has had enough of you you'll go. We are only here for as long as we serve." Angle said as she glared at Nightmare. She held her side as she felt a soft touch on it and the pain come then go. She looked and saw Dreamkeeper's hand on her side and saw it was fully healed. Angle closed her eyes as a sliver aura appeared around her. When she open it she was back beside Xavier. For some reason she reached on grasped his hand feeling safe for once in this strange place.

"That is enough Angle you have a job to do. He has chosen his fate with her. Enough now." She said as she reached out and touched Nightmare as the black aura from the girl began to move to to Dreamkeeper. She smiled as she drained nightmare of her energy or some of it. "There now they'll be no threatening." She said as her angelic face just smiled at Nightmare. She then looked to Angle as a sliver aura appeared around her and she vanished from them. Her eyes then shifted back to Nightmare. "Nightmare come with me now my dear we have much to speak of. Unless you are to busy. If you are I expect you to do your job and come see me once you are done. Don't make me wait to long please."

((Your not waiting for me are you?....))
