"Heh heh heh..." she says. "I am the queen of the kingdom of the new moon's darkness, Bandiane. Ciel Phantomhive... No. Brilliant Warrior of the Dreaming. Your beloved Kaguya thought you could defeat me?"
"Kaguya..." says Ciel. "Do you know her?"
"I will again be Queen of the Dreaming," says Bandiane, "and this planet belongs to the Dreaming! So who is the true ruler of this planet? It seems the time to decide has come."
"This planet belongs to the people of Earth!" Ciel says. "You have sprinkled it with your evil spirits and nightmares! Here, together with your nightmares, you will be destroyed!"
"You cannot defeat my curse," says Bandiane.
Ciel grabs his chest in pain."Why!?"
"You want to know? Cute Warrior... Heh heh."
"The mirror!" Ciel thinks. He grabs his sword and attacks.
Power shoots at the mirror holding Bandiane.
"Ciel!" calls Lizzie.
The attack bounces off the mirror, and shoots back at them.
They find themselves in another world, surrounded by prisms of color.
"This..." says Mey-Rin. "It's just like... we're inside a kaleidoscope...!"
"Damn!" thinks Lizzie. "It was reflected! Are we inside Ciel's attack!?"
Xxx
"Ciel... Ciel..."
Ciel looks around.
He sees a woman kissing a baby. It was his mother.
"Ciel, my son. I'm truly glad you were born."
"Mother!?" Ciel thinks. "Is this a vision... of my birth!?"
"Now, let us celebrate. Everyone, come in!"
Ciel looks around the room, and sees a large mirror on the wall.
"Bandiane's mirror!? Why is it in Mother's room!?"
A younger Madame Red came into the room, with a young Vincent.
"Congratulations!"
"I've been waiting for you," says Rachel. "Angelina my sister."
Madame Red knelt to her.
"I have been eagerly awaiting this time. I am so glad to meet my precious nephew!"
"Soon, he will grow, and catch up to you," says Rachel. "It shall be fun. I wonder what kind of boy he'll become."
People come to Rachel, bringing gifts.
"A gift!"
"Congratulations!"
"Here's a gift!"
A dark woman, cloaked in shadow, enters the room.
"I, too, have a gift," she says.
Vincent and Angelina run between her and the baby.
"For the biggest celebration," Bandiane says, "I was the only one not invited."
"Intruder!" shouts Vincent. "Who are you!?"
"Well," says Bandiane. "Even I live here. But I come from the depths of the earth."
"You lie!" says Angelina. "You don't live on the earth!"
"That's right!" says Vincent. "You crept her in secret, to spread your darkness as an incarnation of bewitching evil!"
"Uninvited guest," says Rachel. "If you are looking for peace, and want to stay, we shall welcome you. But, I shall not allow you to bring the darkness of evil to my son!"
"That's funny," says Bandiane. "Are not our origins the same? Rachel, the darkness is necessary. If you will simply take my hand... If you will accept the darkness..."
"Stranger!" shouts Vincent. "Begone this instant!"
"Where there is light, there is darkness. The darkness calls to the light, and the light shall call to the darkness again!"
Bandiane begins glowing with power, then disappeared into the mirror.
"A present in celebration!" Bandiane says. "That you should receive my beautiful curse! When my curse is fulfilled, your son will die and destroy the dreaming!"
"By Bandiane's curse..." Ciel thinks. "The Dreaming was destroyed!?"
"The Dreaming's sickness is not a curse!" says Lizzie. "It was destiny! You can't change destiny!"
"Yes..." thinks Seigulde. "However many tragedies occurred one after another, like dominos, we followed our destiny of destruction. I thought everything was wiped out and reborn, but here there is one piece left!"
"At that time," says Bandiane, "all the light was lost. But I know your have the light I seek!"
A light glowed in Ciel' chest.
"Ciel!?" Doll calls.
The light flies into Bandiane's grasp, and Ciel slumps. "Hahaha!"
Ciel begins coughing up blood.
Kaguya runs to him.
"Ciel!"
She starts to hack up blood as well.
"Hahahaha!" says Bandiane. "This is not a dream! You cannot defeat my long, long curse! The Dreaming, will be destroyed now, here! Completely! I finally have it! I will use the soul of the warrior to destroy everything!"
Ciel' soul glows brightly, as Bandiane grows with its power.
"His soul is-!?" gasps Seigulde.
Ciel cries out and falls back, his power gone.
"Ciel!"
"Come on, Ciel!" Lizzie thinks. "If you don't live, Earth and Dreaming won't be saved!"
"I have the power!" says Bandiane. "You are as good as dust! Be destroyed! Now, everything is mine! I have the unbeatable power! Only I am the true ruler!"
"No!" Ciel shouts. He grabs Kaguya's outstretched hand. "Kaguya!"
"Give me strength, Ciel!"
They hold each other and kiss deeply.
"We can't be destroyed here!" Ciel says.
"Right," says Ciel. "We can't give in to this nightmare!"
A sphere of light glows around the two.
Ciel's Soul disappears from Bandiane's hand.
Ciel regains his power as he kisses Kaguya.
"My chest is hot..." Ciel says.
Light shines from Ciel and Kaguya's chests.
"Power is being born, but... I see."
"No, this can't be!" shouts Bandiane.
"Power isn't taken," says Ciel. "It's born. And power isn't born alone. You can't use it alone! I won't lose to anyone! I will show you our power!"
The light shines in his chest as he faces Bandiane.
"Warrior of the Dreaming!?" Bandiane says. "No, damnit!"
Ciel reaches his arms to the sky, as the light shines above him.
The light spreads all around him. The others transformed into their warrior forms.
Four miniature versions of the warriors appear.
"Warrior Mey-Rin!"
"Warrior Lizzie!"
"Warrior Seigulde!"
"Warrior Doll!"
They are held in spheres of light, and float into the hands of the soldiers.
"Ciel!? You...!"
"We are your guardians. You are the warriors of the Dreaming."
"Guardians!? The Warriors of the Dreaming!?"
"The time has come for our power to be complete," says Lizzie.
"Borrow power from the Dreaming," says Mey-Rin.
"Give your power to Ciel!" says Doll.
In the light above Ciel, his sword appears, and the light radiates to it.
"Look!" says Seigulde. "The sword...!"
"The sign of our gathering... That we have always been searching for... The sword...!"
"Everyone!" Ciel shouts. "Give me your power!"
"Send our power to Ciel! Our power, all of it, here!" They shouted.
Ciel transformed into his Warrior form and he was shining with the same light Kaguya had.
