Johnny: well not much to say today.
Tala: Thanks to Beywriter and Grandma Tsunade for reviewing. It is okay for others to follow in their path.
Johnny: Lirin does NOT own Beyblade or its characters. And she only writes for fun and not profit.
Chapter 10: More Dreaming
Johnny and Tala got back from the hospital much later that night. Jess was sleeping in the backseat with her head resting on Johnny's lap. Her arm freshly bandaged hiding the few stitches needed to close the wound.
Outside Ian was playing in his makeshift fire pit with a small flame still going.
"How'd it go?" he asked as the other joined him by the fire.
"We convinced the doctor it was a training accident. He didn't ask anymore after that."
"Was the fire for burning it?"
"Of course" Ian grinned. "No remains left to scare Jess."
"I'm impressed you have the brains to think of something like this. Good job" Johnny said eying the dying flames. "It's late, I'm going to get Jess into bed."
"Okay."
"Night."
XxXxXx
Jess felt her body being lowered on to the bed and the warm that held her close move away. She wanted to wake up and protest demanding the safeness it gave her return. But she was too tired to open her eyes.
Johnny watched as his girlfriend curled up on the bed and pulled a plushie close to her. For the first time in a while she seemed to be sleeping peacefully, which was quite a miracle after what happened earlier in this very room.
He quietly stripped down to his boxers and slipping in the bed on the other side. He smiled facing Jess. "Sweet dream tonight love" he whispered and pulled her to him and kissed her cheek. He felt her move against him until she was comfortable with her head resting on his shoulder.
He was able to remain awake for a little while longer before sleep over took him.

"Ssso you think that one child misssssing will ssstop what isss planned?"
Jess looked around searching for the voice. It was dark where she was making things hard to see. She could feel dirt beneath her bare feet and realized she had to be in a cave of some sort.
"Where are you?" she finally called out giving up on her sight being of any use. "Why do you hiss like that?"
Her ears were greeted with a hiss like laugh and something dragged along the dirt behind her. She spun around to see what was going on, but it was still too dark for her eyes to make anything out.
"I hissss asss it isss my nature child."
Jess shivered as the voice appeared right next to her ear. A small tongue tickling it as the creature spoke.
"Why are you doing this?" she asked too afraid to turn around.
"I wisssh revenge. I ssshall kill everything on thisss land for imprisssoning me thossse long decadesss ago. You ssshall be my sssecond after the child within you. I ssshall ussse it'sss flesssh and innersss asss my food."
"No." Jess was now crying. She could feel something in her wrapping around the small unborn baby inside her. She fell to her knees holding her stomach. "Stop it."
"I can not. You were the one to drink usss. Now allow me life ssso I can get my revenge."
"I wont. My friend's will find a way to stop this."
"There isss no way. Even you're death ssshall not ssstop thisss from happening."
XxXxXx
Jess opened her eyes with a start. Next to her Johnny was facing the other way still sleeping. She slightly smiled seeing him still resting.
"Enjoy the sleep" she whispered to him.
Jess looked at the clock. It was going on 3:15. The others would still be sleeping for several more hours, which gave her time to try her idea.
She was no dummy and knew that snakes were not one for the cold. And it helped that her bitbeast controlled snow, water and wind. Three elements that were perfect for creating her own frigid utopia.
Carefully, she slipped from the bed and grabbed her blade from the table next to her. Then she tiptoed across the room to the door and opened it slowly so it would not creek.
She did the same down the stairs and into the kitchen were she opened the back door and stepped out onto the deck.
The night air was cool with a gentle wind that brushed her skin. A pleasant shiver ran down her back as the night brought her some comfort.
"Please help me tonight Tsubasa. Freeze me so the thing within me will be no more. Don't stop until I tell you to."
Jess raised her launcher and pulled the cord sending her blade into the sky and then land with a light thump on the wood.
"Circle me" she ordered and the blade began to spin circles around it's owner. "Now Tsubasa, release you're elements and create a winter wonderland for me."
