Claim: I do, however, own Lilium, Junko, Yuuta, Aimiko, and a lot of the Angels as well as their families!

Lilium: You know, I just noticed something... You forgot to add ME to your claims list!

Kya! I'm so sorry! I totally forgot!

Dobiri: *sigh* You dummy. Don't forget next time, okay?

I blame school... T_T

Chapter 1: Dreams' Awakened

NiGHTS groaned as she regained conciousness. Her head was aching and her body felt numb, so the shining light was helping at all. "NiGHTS?" she heard someone call. "NiGHTS? Hello?" NiGHTS pretended not to hear. She heard whoever it was take a deep breath. Then- "NiGHTS!" the person screamed in her ear and NiGHTS was awake with a jolt.

"Ow!" she whined upright, her ears ringing from the looked up to see Lilium.

"Took you long enough to wake up. How do you feel?"

"Like Wizeman was ranting about how he'll 'take-over-the-world' again. You couldn't think of a different way to wake me?"

"Nope!" Lilium smiled.

"That figures... Hey, where's Owl? And Reala? Oh, and while we're at it - WHERE IN THE DREAM DIMENTION ARE WE?!?"

Lilium looked up to the bright blue sky. "We're not in the Dream Realm anymore, NiGHTS..." she answered solemly. "We're in the Reality, the Waking Dimention."

"Hoo, hoo!" a familiar feathered friend came - only not so feathery anymore. "Tokyo, Japan to be exact. It appears that the hole in space we had encountered earlier sent us here."

NiGHTS gawked at the site before her. "Owl?! Is that really you?!"

"Hoo? What are you talking about?"

Lilium stared as well. "You're - um - how can I explain this calmly? You're -"

"You're a Visitor!" NiGHTS exclaimed, pointing in shock.

Owl examined himself. He so wasn't a three foot tall owl anymore! He had grown at least byo, twenty in height, grown a mess of dark brown hair, light brown skin, and blue eyes, which were framed by his glasses. His outfit was composed of the same things he wore as an owl but now they were a little close fitting on his now trim build and he had pants, gloves, and shoes as well.

"HOO! Wait-but how?!" Owl paniced, inspecting every inch of him. Not a feather in site.

"It must be an effect to coming to the Waking Dimention," Lilium shrugged. "I mean, NiGHTS changed too..."

She was right. NiGHTS no longer bore her horns and she had gained wrists, a neck, nose, and ears. In fact these features looked-

"AH! I'm a Visitor too!" NiGHTS cried. Then, there was a groan.

"Ugh... Silence. You're so noisy, NiGHTS," the voice complained and NiGHTS turned to a wounded black- red haired Visitor.

"Reala?" she asked wide-eyed. She could not believe what she was seeing.

"Don't you dare say a word," the Visitor hissed with anger through his fang-like teeth. Yup. Reala.

Dobiri: Zzz...zzz...

Aw! Come on! I'm no good at this! T_T

Lilium: Maybe you should just return to your originals for now. It's getting too weird and idiotic to continue.

But-but-Argh! -

Read, review, and help people! ^^

Lilium: Espcially this person. She sucks altogether.

Next time, you're gonna wish you didn't say that. *_*
