"Very well Scykle. I don't know. You tell me." Disk mocked, flashing Gias.

((OOC- Quick recap in small text and then a more current type response in normal text.))
"You do know the only reason I'm helping you is because you need it." Disk said.
Celia was about to say something nasty in response to Diskue’s statement when he pointed out the inscriptions on the door, and the being known as TORi flew closer to check it out. Andrew was listening with interest as Disk and TORi mused over the door when TORi suddenly turned to face him and Celia. When he asked why they weren’t scared of him both dreamers exchanged a confused look, similar thoughts running through their heads.
‘This thing is a Nightmaren? Why the heck isn’t it attacking us then? ...is it one of those rebel types the Nightopians told us about…?’
‘Diskue is friends with one of them? Wow, I didn’t think they would seem so humanoid. But I guess that makes sense in a way…’
But before either of them could respond TORi went back to examining the door with Diskue.
Andrew decided to try answering its questions anyways. “Well, my names Andrew and this is-”
“-Celia.” The girl cut in, tired of being introduced by her brother. “A pleasure to meet you, maren.” She muttered quietly as Disk recited the code on the doorway. It sounded like something from one of her mystery/adventure books. Andrew was near Disk and listened with interest as he said the poem. When Disk finished, TORiAS was suddenly grinning like a demon and said something that seemed to imply that he wanted to join their little group. Neither dreamer really liked the thought of that (And the way TORi was smiling didn’t exactly help), but if TORiAS was friends with Diskue it seemed logical to take him with them if he insisted…

Suddenly Diskue revealed that they were being watched, and soon enough another being, ever so slightly reminiscent of TORi, had shown itself. Both dreamers were silent as the three dream beings started launching questions and thinly veiled threats towards one another and in the midst of it they caught the creatures name ‘Scykle’.

---------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Celia quietly stepped back a bit and whispered to Andrew "-So whaddya think, another Maren?-"
"-Definetely, if TORi is anything to go by.-"
"-This place is freaking crawling with them apparently.-"
Andrew shrugged. "-Don't look at me, this has got to be your dreamscape.-"
Celia didn't take her eyes off the newcomer but responded to her brother darkly. "-Oh really. And just what makes you think that?-"
"-The harsh liflessness of a desert seems to suit you, is all.-" He replied with a smirk. Celia growled quietly and resisted the urge to punch him in the arm again.
"-Smarta**.-"
Andrew stifled a laugh and step back from Celia, only to bump into the created door. He curiously turned to face it and ran a hand over it's carved surface, only to see it drift slightly open at his touch. He quickly grabbed the handle and closed it again, before looking over his shoulder. No one had noticed. And yet...had he seen something beyond the door?
'That couldn't be...' He thought, before slowly opening the door again, just a crack. Within he glimpsed an alternate world, much darker than the harsh sunlight of the desert. The only things visible were faintly glowing yellow lines on the floor, circling around some sort of small podium in the center. Everything beyond that was swallowed in darkness. "...Huh."

"What?" Diskue asked Andrew in response to his "Huh".

"Er..." Andrew semi-panicked for a split second, unsure of what to do. "Theres something with the door...I mean..." He paused for a second, then lightly pushed the door open showing the void like place that was laying beyond it to anyone glancing back. "It's just a portal." He said calmly, wondering if random doors in nightopia regularly ending up leading to illogical places. There was something bigger he was worried about at the moment though, Scykle.

"Oh, well. it's probably nothing." Amazingly, while talking to Andrew, he was still flashing Gias at Scykle.

Suddenly there was a hand on Diskue's shoulder. "Chill." Celia said quietly to him, having stepped beside the boy/dream guide/whatever the hell he was. She looked at Scykle with a feeling of indifference. "You must understand why we're all a bit standoff-ish, Scykle." She said, shrugging. "Nothing personal. But if you want to know, we're looking for someo....thing. And we probably don't have a lot of time for this." She turned back around and walked over to where Andrew was, in front of the open door. 'For all we know one of us might wake up any second now.'
Andrew was looking into the dark abyss ahead, letting his eyes adjust to the sudden light change. Somehow the place though the portal felt familiar to him...
He nearly jumped when he felt something lightly slap his back. "You gonna just stand here all day?" Celia murmered as she pushed her way past him, but before going on she called back through the door. "Scykle, pleasure to meet you. Toodles. Disk, TORi, you coming or not?", before dissapearing back into the darkened area.
Andrew ducked after her."Wait! We can't just run in here without thinking."
"Well we are." Celia said. She cast a curious look at her brother as he caught up to her. "Unless you'd rather keep traveling through that desert for who knows how long."
"Yeah, well you should at least wait for your friends to catch up."

Scykle nodded. Well, met. But if you don't mind, I must be going. Sorry to bother you! The blue and silver Nightmaren slowly began to walk off.

"First rule of dreams: Unless you meet a Dreamer or a friend of a dream guide, NEVER let your guard down. Unless, of course, you want to lose all of your Ideya." Disk told them.

"We'll try to remember." Celia said, not really caring. Andrew glared at his sister, slightly angry that she was being so ignorant. He didn't say anything though as she had continued walking forward into the new area, footsteps making a strange, metallic clanking sound. As the two passed the glowing yellow circle of lines on the floor, Andrew suddenly dashed in front of his sister and held his arms out effectivly preventing her from proceding. "What the-" "Stopstopstop. It's not safe yet...." Celia watched in suprise as her brother walked over to the podium rising from the floor, where he started running his hands over what looked like buttons of some sort. With every keystroke more neon patterns lit up the darkness, revealing a multitude or walkways expanding in the distance. Celia couldn't help but stare in wonder as the area was 'activated', and she slid closer to Andrew to watch as he was entering seemingly random combinations on the keypad. "...What are you doing?"
"I'm not really shure, but I've done this before." He whispered back, excitedly. After a few more presses, a holographic screen projected from nowhere and the two dreamers stepped back. A multitude of text and numbers flashed by, far too quickly to read, before every window arranged itself neatly into a list of various file extensions. Each one simply titled-
FILE 1
FILE 2
FILE 3
FILE 4...


Andrew and Celia stared at the screen hovering before them, at a loss for what to do. After a few seconds of silence, Celia slowly turned to look at Andrew. "Well? Is that it?" She asked.
"Um..." Andrew mumbled. Truthfully, he was at a loss now. Whatever had posessed him to activate everything earlier had passed, and he had no idea what the above screen meant.
"..."

"What the heck? How did you-... What is-... GAH!!" Disk was overwhelmed at it. He was horrible at math, so it was hurting him very badly to even look at the codes. "This is insane!"

Celia glanced back at Diskue with a mix of suprise and refrain from laughing at him. 'Nutcase.'
Andrew scratched his head and turned to Scykle for a second. He'd thought the maren was leaving them but...ah whatever. He didn't seem that threatening, besides if it tried anything Disk was there. The boy looked up at the holographic screen and slowly reached a hand out for it, touching the 'FILE 1' text. The screen immedietely reacted and shifted around, seperating into several rectanglar peices and re arranging itself into a large, mostly blank screen. A new list started filling up the screen in strange lettering, but before it finished loading a bright red screen popped up in front of it.
'ACCESS DENIED'
'PASSWORD REQUIRED'
Andrew stared at the screen, thinking for a moment. He felt like he was forgetting something, but he tried entering a password anyways.
'Nightopia.'
'INCORRECT.'
"It was worth a try." He mumbled, in slight dissapointment."Any ideas?"
"Oh, let me try." Celia said, taking andrew's place.
'Yellow.'
'INCORRECT.'
"Shoot."

It was hard, but Disk choked out a few words before returning to his spazzing. "Try... the... prophecy! GAH!!" If you didn't know better, you'd think he was break dancing

Scykle watched as the Nightmaren had a seizure. He tilted his head in confusion.

TORiAS paused, looking at Disk, he hadn't said anything lately, but had obediently followed them here.
"Prophecy? why Prophecy?" He wondered aloud, not ready to tell the children he wasn't quite a Nightmaren.

Disk couldn't respond due to siezure.
