It was a dark and stormy night in Vale. Clouds covered up the shattered moon and the sky, allowing no light except the crashes of thunder and lightning.

Even though Nora's semblance allowed her to create and channel electricity she hated thunder storms as they would always bring back bad memories.

Team JNPR were preparing for bed when the first bolt struck outside causing Nora to jump and squeak.

"Nora are you ok?" Jaune asked, standing next to the hammer wielder.

"Y-Yep everything is a-ok." Nora nervously laughed before quickly jumping into her bed calling goodnight to her team.

It took Nora a lot longer than normal to finally fall asleep but once she did it was not peaceful. Her dreams quickly became nightmares as she was transported to a memory she would rather forget.

It was early morning and Nora had just woken up in her bedroom. The entire room had pink walls and pink cupboards and dressers. The floor was slated floorboards and the roof was a pristine white. As she slowly crawled out of bed with a yawn her mother opened the door.

"Honey breakfast is ready. Its your favourite." hey mother sung as she walked away from the now open door

Hearing this caused Nora to run out of her room and down the hallway to the kitchen as fast as her four year old legs could carry her.

Once in the kitchen, Nora could see three plates of pancakes for her family and a bottle of maple syrup in the middle of the table.

As Nora climbed up onto her chair, her mother and father sat down at the table and the family happily ate breakfast together.

Nora spent the rest of her day with her mother going around town for groceries and playing games at home.

As night set in and the family sat down for dinner, sirens started blaring signaling a grimm attack. Nora's mother picked her up as they started running towards the town hall.

Halfway to the town hall a Creep came out from the wreckage of a neighbour's house. The creep charged Nora's mother sending both Nora and her mother flying into the wreckage the grimm had just come from.

Fifteen minutes had passed when Nora finally woke up. Looking around she was still in the wreckage of the house under her mother's limp body. She could hear the sounds of grimm moving around outside and the screams of any surviving villagers.


Nora was violently awoken by Ren who had shaken her awake. As soon as Nora realised who had woken her she wrapped Ren in a bearhug and started crying into the crook of his neck. Ren didn't even need to as what had happened he had heard it all before. This wasn't the first time that Nora had a nightmare about the destruction of her village and it wouldn't be the last. The pair sat like this for a few minutes as Ren slowly moved Nora onto his lap to hold her properly. After Nora had calmed down enough for her tears to become hiccups and whimpers the pair laid down in each other's arms and slowly fell back to sleep.


So this is an idea I had for a drabble of different characters suffering one of their fears in a nightmare. If there is a character you would like to see and a fear for them to deal with (e.g everyone leaving Yang) let me know and I'll try to write a drabble for it.

If you enjoyed, hated, have constructive criticism or have a question please leave a review or pm me so I can make this story and any future stories I write better. Thanks for reading
