After being to the house I headed back home. A bit shocked about what Lenards told me but glad I knew the full story now. As I left the forest reaching the grass field the sky got darker. It had only been a few minutes so I knew it wasn't turning night. I glanced around a bit confused as the sky grew darker and darker. I spotted the house squinting to see better. A figure rose from the ground standing up straight. It had a boney back and wire like tentacles. 2 heads stood on either side of it's shoulders. A piece of paper came from the sky. I hopped up grabbing it then unfolded the paper to read it. "Wither: This creature destorys blocks as it walks and have shadow like fireballs that deal damage" it read. I groaned not ready for this fight but I had no choice. I ran torwards the house letting the piece of paper fly into the wind. When I got closer the creature turned as if detecting me. It threw three fireballs from each of it's heads. I ducked underneath then slid to the front porch. I ran inside slamming the door behind me. I breathed heavily keeping the door shut. I just stood there taking a breather until I felt air from outside coming in. I started falling back but caught myself turning. The door flew into the dark sky showing the wither right behind me. "Fucking hell" I said running upstairs. I ran around the garden goinf up to the roof. The front wall started breaking apart and flying into the sky. I stood back hiding behind a bunch of blocks. I groaned realizing no one was home. I just sat there trying to gain focus on what exactly was happening. Another swirl of black came from my right making the sky darker. I turned glancing over the edge. Another one of the wither stood up straight opening it's eyes. My eyes widened running to the left side of the roof. I glanced over the edge trying to see the bottom. A wave of white showed running by the house. I narrowed my eyebrows then stepped back. I took a headstart running off the roof. I grabbed my sword swinging downwards right above the strain of white. I caught onto their jacket stepping on the fabric. They slid to the ground dropping a skull like figure. I glanced around noticing a bunch of brown sand in the formation of a T. "Who the hell are you?" I asked glancing back to them. They breathed heavily using their elbow to get up. "Your worst Nightmare" they answered. A flash of purple went by as the person disappeared. My eyes widened recognizing that attack pattern. I ran out of the way as a trail of fire hit the wall of the house. They bounced off swinging their sword at me. I slid to the ground barely missing the sword. The flash of purple went by the sand placing three skulls along the top. The sand melted as another wither stood from the ground. I shuttered slowly getting up. Another flash of purple went by coming right torwards me. I stepped back hearing two swords collide. I got to my feet then quickly glanced up. Echo stood in front of me countering the person's attack. In this moment I was able to study the mans features. He was in all white and blue but what stood out most was a smiley faced mask. "Nightmare?" I asked trying to hold back tears. He yelled blasting fire around his sword. Echo spun out the way letting him hit the ground. I stumbled back dodging blasts of fire. In the moment I completely forgot there were three withers around us. One let out three fireblasts straight torwards us. I hopped out the way of all of them then pulled Echo away from the third. Another flash of purple went by reflecting off the wall. Echo stood back up colliding her sword with Nightmare's again. I scooted back trying to recalculate the person's features not believing it's Nightmare. "Destory all the sand around the house, I have people to deal with the withers" Echo ordered at me knowing I was zoning out. I nodded slightly quickly getting up. The person kicked Echo in the side chasing after me. I kicked through each statue of sand running to the next. "STOP" the person yelled as another flash of purple came torwards me. Another sword collided with his stopping him again. I knocked down another statue then turned to see who it was. Iina kicked around pulling him back from the neck. He fell back hitting Iina with fire. I wanted to do something about it but stayed focus on what Echo told me to do. I kept running around knocking down each statue one by one. I continuously heard sounds of metal hitting each other but tried to ignore it. I ran by the side of the house seeing the next statue of sand. Just then the first wither from the front broke through the side wall. I let out a scream in fear falling back and scooting away from the wall. The wither turned extending it's arms from it's body. I got up quick running underneath it. I hopped up pulling my sword through the underside of it. It let out a shriek of pain and floated higher up. I ran to the front of the house hiding behind the wall. Thunder sounded from above as lightning struck down. Another shriek came out of the wither. I slowly looked around the wall noticing Stacy. I glanced up at the wither as all three of it's heads fell down. It's body split in half from the slice and all fell to the floor. Stacy got up quick running over to me. "Are you alright?" she asked genuinely concerned. I just nodded energetically glad she was here. "Yeah but uh, who's the guy in all white-" I asked out of breath. "Who?" she asked continuing to cup my face. The wall behind us flew up to the sky as a fourth wither came through the wall. Stacy's eyes widened as she picked me up and going up to the sky. "Whoa-" I said never experiencing the whole lightning strike move. Stacy hit certain spots in the sky then striked down to the roof. She set me down checking me for wounds. "Really Stacy I'm not hurt-" I said letting out a chuckle. "You kids bring out the mother in me" she said playfully hitting me. A second flash of purple went up then came down torwards us like a fireball. Stacy cradled me again using lightning to go back up to the air. The man in all white striked through the roof then flew back up. Stacy stood in the air watching closely. "That guy in all white?" she asked. I just nodded glancing over at her. "Alright" she said moving swiftly to another part of the sky. A trail of fire followed each of Stacy's moves. I just held on starting to fet dizzy from all the lightning directions. Stacy reached the ground letting electricity through the lightning creating a giant spark/explosion. The trail of fire wore out falling to the ground. The way it fell signified the person was injured. They finally hit the ground creating a cloud of dust. The roof under us fell in again from the wither. Stacy kicked off the remaining wall striking to the back of the house. She came down striking lightning into another wither, killing it. "You stay safe now" she exclaimed letting me down. She gave me a gentle smile then disappeared into lightning again. I just stood there watching everything happen. The house was nearly gone, Echo and Iina were fighting withers. A flash of purple fire came torwards me again. I dodged swinging my sword at it. They blasted through hitting the ground hard. "Who the hell are you?!" I yelled again annoyed by their last answer, still not believing it was Nightmare. "I'm suprised you don't recognize me" he said swinging again. I blocked his attack keeping him there. "How the hell would I recognize you?" I asked frustrated. "I don't remind you of someone.." he answered kicking at me. I hopped over his leg then kicked him back shaking my head. "You ruined my chances of SEEING HER AGAIN" he yelled blasting fire around his sword again. He teleported swinging right at me. I ducked down then layed to the floor letting him go past me. I quickly got up countering his attack again. "I DON'T EVEN KNOW WHO YOU ARE" I yelled back kicking him again. He avoided my leg then stood a distance from me. "My name is Day-Dream, darling" he said becoming courteous. "That is the stupidest name I've ever heard" I said out of spite. "What do you know you're dating a male named Nightmare.. Besides I look like him correct? Doesn't that give you sort of a hint?" he asked trying to answer my question. I just narrowed my eyebrows not believing a thing he said. A lightning strike came down as Stacy swung at Day-Dream. His eyes widened attempting to dodged but was grabbed too quick. "Wait" I said loud enough for Stacy to hear. She abandoned the lightning strike still holding a grip on Day-Dream's shirt. "Then why are you spawning in withers?" I asked. "None of your mortal ass business" he said kicking Stacy off. I ran swinging at him. His eyes widened again dodging just barely. I grabbed his shirt pulling him back. "It's my business when you destroy our fucking house over it" I said keeping my sword up ready to swing if anything. He just glared at me then blasted fire around his sword swinging at me. I felt the heat against my neck then a burn as if a cut. A lightning strike hit right at him as my grip let go. I glasped my hand over my neck falling to the ground. I coughed up blood as my vision got blurry. It occurred to me again that if I died I couldn't come back. Today I was really risking it this time. I felt my self slowly losing conscious but felt myself being picked up. Whoever picked me up ran from the scene as if forfeiting. We really lost everything now.
