More than Just a Dream (Private)
 

(For Saturn_Ringer, WiddleZetsu, and Atomisk the Pirate King)


The Nightmare watched with fiery eyes as Fear approached him. He lifted his hand from his throne, palm facing upward, and summoned a mass of shadows. "You are my most trusted servant, Fear..." He said in his deep and raspy voice, "I have another mission for you..." In the shadows above his hand appeared the faces of the reincarnations of the Legendary Warriors who had defeated him before. "Track them down... Make it impossible for them to defeat me... I don't care how... Kill them if you must..." The shadows above his hand disappeared as he clenched his dark fist.

Meanwhile...

Eve walked along the path in between Aliria and Aileen. She grew tired, for they had been traveling along the path most of the day. "Ok, I'm eighty percent positive that we're walking in circles..." She said. Her ears were drooping downwards.

fear on one knee says;''yes my lord will that be all my lord .for I live to serve you and your goel infact I have some energy I can use to make some humens be on are side if you wish my lord.''

Aileen sighed, shouldering her sword. She wasn't showing it, but she was tired too.

"I think you're right, Eve." She said, going over to a tree and checking it, before punching it in frustration when she saw a mark. "Something's leading us in circles...we're getting nowhere fast."

fear as hes talking to the nightmare is making the people that pose a threat walk in circles so he could mess with them once he has the right chance.

Eve sighed again, and hunched over. "Do you think we could set up camp for the night?" She asked, her silvery violet hair covering her face, "The sun is going to set in a few minutes... And you know how much I hate the dark..." She looked at the sun, almost fully behind the mountains in the distance.

The Nightmare pondered Fears question. He laughed. "Do what you wish with the humans... their lives mean nothing for me..." he said. "Now go... Find them... Make them suffer like I have..."

fear puts his arm to his chest and says;''yes my lord.''with that he vanished in a puff of smoke to the shadows of the lad close to where the heros are he stays in the shadow as he waits for his chance.

(piont I'm keeping it where he can sink into shadows)

Aliria had been set for making camp a long while ago, her hair of ivory silk settled about her shoulders, none the better for a rest.
"So we got ourselves a scaredy cat?" the girl teased, knowing the time for their break was at hand, spear leaning on her shoulder, it's butt now leaning into the ground. "I'm a bit tired myself... Camp sounds good."

"We're certainly not getting anywhere tonight." Aileen sighed. "Maybe we'll make some progress in the morning."

"Thank you!" Eve said, smiling. She stopped as they reached a clearing that they could swear they passed for the third time, took off the straps of her bag, and took out the large, folded up tent she was carrying. "Okie dokie. Let's set up camp." She said as she started to unfold the tent.

Aileen set down her sword and came over to help set up.

She wasn't happy about stopping for the night, but maybe the enchantment keeping them lost would run out if they did.
