Anything and Everything Role Play

“I have partial control of time. I’m better at seeing what could happen than this. And fighting agains another Shadowbound’s powers? That’s more difficult.”

"But what are we fighting?"

Weaver shook his head. “STOP!” He screamed. Everything froze. “We have maybe thirty seconds of frozen time.” He explained. “Use it well.” 
He looked over at the shadows. “Wow. Creepy.”

The man with the shovel steadied himself, backing away from the monster. "I... You should all run. Once I die all the nightmares I'm making will go away, right?"

"But what are we fighting?"

“Dreams. Nightmares. Ours and those of people who came before.”

“Nope. You’d become part of his retinue of nightmares, less dead than living in a dream forever. Halfway between life and death. That might make it worse actually.”

"Such self sacrifice is noble, but I'd rather not watch a man die tonight. Besides, there will still be nightmares to fight once your gone, what's one more?"

Penn angled his sword at the boney creature. Hopefully, this was something he could kill. Unlike shadows.

"But then... why hasn't my nightmares showed up yet?"

"I'm confused" Alitila says, "what just happened?" 

“Time stopped,” Xiylna breathed, awed. “Everyone, MOVE.”

[Mags she/they]

"But then... why hasn't my nightmares showed up yet?"

"Perhaps you do not have nightmares?" Penn asked with a shrug.

He run up to the boney thing and made a slash at it with his sword.

Just now, Aeoryi said:

"But then... why hasn't my nightmares showed up yet?"

“Not sure. I’m hoping my nightmare doesn’t come either. It could be your amount of magic, or control of your dreams.”

 

1 minute ago, Edema Rue said:

“Time stopped,” Xiylna breathed, awed. “Everyone, MOVE.”

“Maybe ten seconds left! We’re still stuck, just get in a better position!”

[Aeoryi she/her]

“Not sure. I’m hoping my nightmare doesn’t come either. It could be your amount of magic, or control of your dreams.”

 

“Maybe ten seconds left! We’re still stuck, just get in a better position!”

"I- don't I - I just- I can't fight."

Penn stabbed the boney corpse thing, trying to get as much damage on it as he could before it started moving again.

Just now, Aeoryi said:

"I- don't I - I just- I can't fight."

“You don’t need to. Just stay by me, and you’ll be fine.”

[Aeoryi she/her]

Just now, Ancient Elantrian said:

“You don’t need to. Just stay by me, and you’ll be fine.”

"Okay."

[Edema Rue she/her]

Xiylna twitched her fingers, trying to taint the bones so they’d collapse.

“Nope. You’d become part of his retinue of nightmares, less dead than living in a dream forever. Halfway between life and death. That might make it worse actually.”

"Still. If you all run, I could lead them away, buy you more time until morning. I-" The man with a shovel took a deep breath. "You shouldn't have to die at his hands."

"Okay."

Time restarted.

Weaver swung his scythe, cutting down one of the shadow creatures.

“We won’t. I promise you we WILL LIVE.”

It worked, the skeleton collapsed.

Penn stabbed the creature again.

"We're doing just fine."

"I-" Pen felt something tug on his conscious.

It was coming from nearby.

"I don't think I can follow you at the moment, can we perhaps set up an appointment?"

“Bah! Fine! But know ye that thyself is bound by magic to fulfil thy word.”

Pan looked around for whatever Being had pulled on his mind.

"You can come join us, if you'd like."

“The trees burn because this place is strange. Like a dream, none of it makes sense. Unlike a dream, it can all still kill you. Nothing that comes will be funny or happy.” Weaver said. He didn’t sound scared, he just said it in his normal voice. Suddenly his eyes began to glow an unearthly color. They were black, a deep black, not reflective at all. Surrounding the black was a glowing white. His head snapped up. 

“Heroes. Alone. Fail. Bring them back, bring them back, bring them back. 
Death. Upon. All. Bring them back, bring them back, bring them back.

Reality. Apart. Broken. Bring them back, bring them back, bring them back.”

His eyes faded back to normal and he looked up. “Get ready to fight.” He says. “It’s coming.”

“Huh. Ye yourself is intriguing to myself. I shall meet with thyself also.” Dragon bound him with magic.

"Oh neat! I haven't gotten to fight a Dream Demon in ages."

“Ah! I knowest that fellow! This shall be great! We are oldest of friends!”

“I’m already deaaaaddddd,” Xiylna sings happily. “It’s very boring, being dead.”

“I cannot die.”

“The opponent? Whatever you think up in your fear, most likely. I have a feeling… but no, he’s not here, is he?” Weaver said.  A look of surprise finally showed on his face, the first emotion he had shown since everyone met. “Don’t fall asleep.” He said. “Whatever you do everyone DO NOT FALL ASLEEP!”

A deep laugh came from the shadows, which grew, stretching in strange ways. Around everyone’s feet grasses rippled. Then the grass grabbed Xiylna.

“I have slept mine own share of slumber. I shall not fall again for a multitude of Milenia.”

The man with a shovel swung his shovel by reflex, chopping the grass with its sharpened edge. "Wait, so whatever nightmares we imagine will attack us?

 

“Alas! I do have uttermost complete control of mine own mind! I may  help thou think of terrible things however if you desirest!”

The dragon stepped forward. “DreamDeam! It has been…Many many long years! What havest you been up to? Reveal thyself to mine own eyes only!”

soon I will send a full explaination about the nature of dragons.

“I’m so confused. It’s been a long time? Who are you? How did you get here?”

"Ah, so you did decide to join us," Penn said with a smile. He dodged a clawed swipe form the boney-corpse-thing.

The shovel man gripped his shovel tightly, still shaking with terror. "You still don't understand. He's not here yet. He always sends the dead first. It's only if they don't get the job done that he approaches."

As if on que, an even louder grinding noise came from the forest as more bone-corpses approached.

Weaver glared at it, and swung his scythe.

"One thing at a time, my good man." The corpse fell with a final slash at it's legs.

The bright thing blocked it with an axe. "Shadeling. The light defies you."

And it swung it's axe at Weaver
