  1. "Witch doctor is on the couch." Aydri shouted to him. "Rex?" Ella asked.
  2. Elan shook his head, looking confused. "I... don't know."
  3. "I doubt he knows he's been sleeping." Clay said, "He fell soon after the power took hold. Some strange dream-shadow-coma."
  4. Aydri yawned, stretching, then walked into the living room, letting Cedar sleep. She yelped when she saw Roy. "AH!" Then she noticed who he was. He was sleeping on the couch. She walked over and nudged him, "Hello?"
  5. "G'night." She relaxed, falling into a deep, restful sleep.
  6. She snuggled up against him, his body warm against hers. She hugged him back, feeling the safest she had in a long time.
  7. "Okay," Aydri says. She climbs into the bed, snuggling down into the blankets.
  8. Aydri sighs. "See, now I feel weird picking anything. I think I'm going to sleep in the bed. Feel free to join me, if you'd like."
  9. "He could... would hold them back. He has the power. He needn't be sleeping."
  10. Aydri opened the door, taking a deep breath in, savoring the musty but comforting scent of home. "Couch? Bed? Both share the bed?" Aydri asks, "Both share the couch?"
  11. Weaver nodded. "The One is coming. Soon. We need the One who Dreams awakened. I know you nor us know how, but we need to try."
  12. "I want to sleep." Aydri says. "I feel like I just dragged myself up and down a mountain... oh wait..."
  13. "No idea. The Wyrm brought us here." Clay gestures to Dragon. "Can I get a cheeseburger?" Weaver says, clutching his scythe tightly. "I'm starving..."
  14. They approached their home after the long trek down. "Finally..."
  15. The two of them glance at each other, then climb in their individual beds.
  16. Elan breathed in and out slowly, picturing what mattered most to him, shielding it from the minds of the others. He drew on the others, pushing healing magic forcefully into Rex. Please, please work... "Hopefully." Aydri says, "I really want to sleep in a real bed."
  17. "Now... be ready, this'll be cold... it will draw on your soul... your essence... keep your mind on what matters most... or you'll lose yourself." Elan focuses again, closing his eyes, and his hands begin glowing, a thin layer of frost forming around his skin. Aydri sighs. "I want to be home."
  18. Weaver and Clay stepped back. "Are we sure... I don't trust..."
  19. "Thank you..." "Just... put your hands on mine." Ella appears and places her hands on Elan's as he lays them on Rex's temples again.
  20. "And if someone tries to take us apart...?"
  21. "You'll never leave... right?" Elan nods. He puts his hands on Rex's temples and closes his eyes. His brow furrows and his face is concentrated. Sweat beads on his forehead. His breathing quickens until he rips his hands off of her head, shaking. "I need... help..." he pants, "Do you mind if I call... Ella... and..." he takes a deep breath, swallows, then resumes, "Can you help too?"
  22. She held him close, not letting go. "I love you..." She whispered to him. "I think? I don't know the problem... I think I can..."
  23. "I... I think?"
  24. "I'm... fine. Fine." "Oh no... I'm... What..." Elan rests a hand on Rex's forehead. "Somethings not right..."
  25. "I teleported to you after a fight, passed out, gave a prophecy, then teleported and am still moving in the dream realm..." Clay winces, "So no. Not alright. Probably will live though."
