NIGHTS: into shadows

A NIGHT befriends a visitor who just recently arrived. But little did he know that the visitor holds an unexpected surprise.

Chapter one: The visitor

Dreaming about the past that you no longer want to remember can bring forth a shade of darkness. But for an unfortunate girl, she often dreamt about it. Her fear nearly causes the darkness to engulf her. Thankfully a shining light rescued and bought her to safety. Finding herself in a small plaza, the girl became quite amused at the sight.

"What is this place?" the girl asked herself.

"Hoo a visitor, well isn't this a rare occasion", said unexpected voice

The girl then saw an owl right beside her, startled she fell back.

"Oh, sorry I didn't mean to frighten you my dear", the owl said apologizing.

"That's alright ", the girl said as she got up on her feet.

"Well, I suppose I should introduce myself now then. My name is Owl and welcome to the Night Dimension young visitor."

"The Night Dimension?" the confuse girl said. "Is that what is this place called?"

"Yes it is", Owl replied. "It is a world that you can visit once you are asleep. And people who visited this world are called visitors. And this place we are in now is called the Dream Plaza."

Suddenly the girl heard notes in the air, it sounded like someone was playing a flute. But when she looked around she saw no one else besides her and Owl.

The girl asked, "Owl where is that music coming from?"

Owl sighed and said, "Look above you, the trouble maker's here."

The girl did. She then saw a purple creature that looks like a jester floating right above them; it then took notice of her the minute she looked at him. It flew down towards to greet them.

"Well isn't this a rare occasion", the purple jester said as he stood right in front of them. "Visitors are very unusual comers these days."

"Mind your manners ", Owl said sternly.

"Ok, ok then I will" he said. So anyway welcome to the Night Dimension, my name is NIGHTS, what's yours? "

"My name's Azalea", the girl said shyly. "Azalea Silverlance is my whole name. But call me Aza, for short. It's nice to meet you. "

NIGHTS stared at her sapphire blue eyes as if he was reading her thoughts. The young girl shuddered a little.

Then finally NIGHTS said, "Have you ever thought of trying how to fly?

Aza shook her head and said "is that even possible?"

"Of course it is" NIGHTS answered. "If you dualize with me you can try it out, so want to give it a shot?"

The girl was unsure what to do so Owl spoke up," let me explain how it works...Dualizing with NIGHTS allows you to become one with him, and also you will be allowed to use his powers at time being."

"Well it's worth trying then" Aza said still confuse. "It might be fun anyway."

"Trust me", NIGHTS said. "It will."

NIGHTS held out his hand as Aza held out hers, and in an instant they became one.

Let's practice on your flying then, NIGHTS said as they floated above the plaza. Since it's your first time you might as well take it smooth and easy."

"Let me give it a shot" the girl said excitedly.

Before NIGHTS could respond they, took off. Aza was quite a natural flyer herself and she was enjoying every minute of it and she did a few stunts that NIGHTS haven't done before, until she accidentally did a paraloop which shocked Owl and NIGHTS.

"Where did you learn to do that?" NIGHTS said with shock.

"I don't know" she answered." It just came into my mind; I've never done this ever since I ran away from the circus."

"Well this is quite impressive for a visitor", Owl said as he flew near them." Normally a visitor never did a paraloop until NIGHTS thought them to."

"Well that makes her the first one" the jester said with delight. Let's do a little more of those… what do you call them again?

"Stunts"

"Yes, I knew that."

After learning a few things from each other, NIGHTS and Aza noticed a door suddenly appeared in the plaza, NIGHTS un-merge Aza from him so she can take a better look of door.

"Well isn't this a rare sight" Owl said as he saw the door." The door to Nightopia has appeared"

"That probably means Aza has an Ideya with her then" NIGHTS said excitedly. "Oh boy, I can't wait to see her Nightopia. A new place to visit finally."

Huh? Nightopia? An Ideya? What are those? Aza asked.

"Ah, I guess I should now explain further then," Owl said. Ideyas are sparks of lights that dwells within the hearts of visitors that builds the paradise called NIghtopia and the world you visit depends on the color of the Ideyas that you possess."

Aza was so filled with excitement. "Well what are we waiting for lets go already!"

NIGHTS grinned as she said those words." She's more excited than I am."

"Since it's her first time here, I guess she probably would" Owl said.

But before they could even move a muscle, NIGHTS froze when he heard a familiar voice.

"Hello there NIGHTS, it's been a while."
