"That dream was way too real for me Noble" Danny said riding to school. 'I know it was but that is the rider's true form' Noble said "And that is what scares the living vengeance out of me" Danny said parking his bike. 'I know you are afraid but in time you may control the rider's true power' Noble said "Well if that what it is I don't want it" Danny said 'Wanting and needing are two different things remember that' Noble said. "I do" Danny said. 'Why do I think you are?' Noble asked.
In class Danny just lazed back as his group of friends came over. "Things are heating up now that the girls know about the Syphoners" Zero said "Yipee" Danny said "Come on now Dan they could be in big trouble" Zero said "So what?" Danny asked. "Daniel is something wrong?" Tomoyo asked. "The after effects from a bad dream that's all" Danny replied sitting up as class began for the day 'He can't get that dream out of his head' Noble said
During the third lesson of the day Danny drifted off to sleep during which he started to experience himself as the rider again, Roaring down the main street of Tomoeda in a trail of fire and smoke destroying the street as he rode off. He made a vicious howling noise as he gleefully looked for those who were in need of vengeance and deliver it for them. Finally he spotted a familiar face in front of the rider as it stopped. There was a terrified Sakura shaking at the sight of the monstrosity before her eyes. With a mighty roar Danny woke up spooked. "Ah Mr Ketch welcome back" the teacher said "Sorry ma'am" Danny apologised.
"The rider is awakening, soon it will be able to transform and then I'll be in trouble; so my question is how to keep it from appearing?" the queen asked as she bathed, "Maybe a dark element syphoner to drain it enough that the rider will sleep for long enough to finish my plan and rule the world" she continued as she felt the hot water relax her. "But it could also enrage it more" The queen said staring into the light reflecting ripples.
"There has to be a way to make this damn bastard sleep again" Danny said slamming the door to his house shut 'I would know if there was' Noble said "I can't let this happen" Danny said holding an orb in his hands. "The fire syphoner must have woken it up" Danny relaised "And that means I can't be with her while its awake" Danny sighed looking at the stars 'The curse of the rider is not an easy one to bare' Noble said sadly "And what will deter the rider from fully awakening?" Danny asked. 'That I do not know, and I doubt that others will' Noble said before silencing himself. "So this is the curse's full darkness" Danny said.
That night Sakura looked at her window whiel brushing her caramel brown hair "Kero" she said "Yeah Sakura?" Kero asked. "Can you sense inner turmoils?" she asked sitting on her bed. "No I can't and that is a skill that is extremely rare." Kero said "I see" Sakura said jumping into bed. "But if this is who I think it is, no amount of magic can stop it for it comes from the pain and injustice of the world" Kero said as Sakura peacefully slept, "I just hope he can control it" Kero said looking up at the moonlit sky. "If not we're in trouble" He sighed.
That night while Danny slept a shadow swept over the room, the black orb gave off a purple light as it sensed the presence of a Syphoner in the shadows. Danny knew something was wrong, he bolted awake and looked around "Noble" Danny said 'Its here' Noble said "Where?" Danny asked going for a torch and the dark prison "Any idea where this thing is?" Danny asked. 'No idon't not yet anyway' Noble said as the pair scanned the room "I'm noty liking this" Danny said going for a light switch, only to have his hand grabbed by a claw like appendage "Got you" Danny said blasting the syphoner with torchlight. "Not so tough in the light are you bitch" Danny laughed before it punched him in the gut "why you!" Danny growled before headlocking the thing punching it several times after that top make sure the thing stayed down "Now where was I?" he asked going for the prison. "Oh yes" Danny said as the shadow tried to get away "Obscuro Sorbete" Danny said before noticing the torch was flat. "Shit" Danny said as the dark syphoner got away. "That's not good" Danny said. The Dark Syphoner hid outside Danny's house. It thought it was safe as long as it couldn't be discovered. It thought wrong "Hello shadow boy, Obscuro Sorbete!" Danny shouted sucking the shadow into the orb. "Goodnight you dark bastard" he growled before heading back to bed. "It's late" Danny said as he faded into the dreamland.
The dream he had that night was different than the usual ghost rider confrontation dream he had night after night, This time the dream was fill with light and blue skies. "This is weird" Danny said "Hey" a soft voice said as Danny felt a pair of arms around him "Sakura?" he asked shocked. "I was wondering when you get back" she said as the light faded to reveal Sakura in her late teens early twenties wearing her signature pink dress and white apron "Welcome home dear" was all she said "What?" Danny asked.
"The heck?" he asked waking up 'was with that?" noble asked. "A vision of the future?" Danny asked thinking about it 'I don't knowall I know is that it is nearly time for school' Noble said as Danny started to prepare for the day ahead of him. "These dreams are started to become a mystery infused with a riddle, first visions of the rider, now me and Sakura in love" Danny said 'in love or married?' Noble asked. "Why would you we were married?" Danny inquired 'Becuase you two acted comfortable with each other and she said welcome home dear' Noble informed him 'Yikes, so does that mean?" Danny asked. 'I don't know if it does or not' Noble said "Great" Danny groaned.
The queen was not happy. "He has defeated all of my normal elemental syphoners, so why not use an emotional syphoner next I have the perfect one" she said entering her chamber before heading over to her special syphoners box and opened the box to retrieve a heart shaped crystal only to find it gone "Oh no! Of all the syphoners to go rogue it had to be the love syphoner; where is it?" she asked not knowing it left with the darkness.
