Charmed and Dangerous: Night to Remember!

Everyone had gone to bed. Hiei and Yusuke shared a room because if they paired Hiei and Kuwabara in the same room . . . well, you get the picture. There would be a LOT of blood in the morning. Kurama and Kuwabara bunked together because neither could stand Yusuke's snoring.

It was around one in the morning when Kurama heard someone walk down the hall and go into the kitchen. He decided to see who could be up at this hour. He walked to the bedroom door and opened it. He heard what sounded like the refrigerator door open and close. He entered the kitchen and saw Crystal. She had her eyes closed, and she was mumbling something. She had a glass of milk in one hand and a plate of chocolate chip cookies balanced on the other.

"Crys?" Kurama asked, in a loud whisper. Crystal jumped. The milk in her hand ended up in Kurama's face and the plate of cookies landed on her head.

"Wha-? Oh, god! Kurama?" Crystal gasped. "I am sooo sorry! Here." Crystal said, handing him a towel.

"That's alright." Kurama said, wiping off his face with the towel.

"What happened? Why am I out here?" Crystal asked.

"You don't remember?" Kurama said, slightly concerned.

"No, I-" She was cut off when the house started to shake. Crystal fell onto her knees at the sudden rumbling. Both she and Kurama heard a noise and turned at the same time to see Hiei. Kuwabara ran out in his boxers, and then Yusuke came running out.

Sapphire's door flew open. Sapphire came floating out, eyes glowing with rage. She flew past the kitchen and into the living room.

"Sapph! What are you doing?!" Hiei shouted. He didn't like that look.

"She's having a nightmare! We have to stop her! She sees us as demons! Well . . . some of us are actually . . ." She added the last part while looking at Kurama and Hiei.

"What will wake her?" Kurama asked, ducking down next to Crystal while dodging an energy ball fired at him by Sapphire.

"Um! I . . . I don't know! She's always woken up before it got this intense!" Crystal was really panicking now.

"Calm yourself, Crys! There has to be something! Think!" Kurama said reassuringly.

"Wait! She once told me about a potion she made that would wake her if she ever got a really bad nightmare." Hiei said, remembering.

"Where is it?" Crystal asked. All five of them were now ducking down behind the couch in the living room.

"Um . . . POTION!" Crystal said, holding out her hand. The potion appeared in her hand. She threw it. Sapphire fell to the ground, in deep sleep. Hiei stood and walked over to her. He picked her up and carried her into her room.

"Well, this will be a night to remember." Crystal said standing.

"Indeed. Goodnight, Crys." Kurama said, heading to bed.

"Goodnight, Kurama!" Crystal grinned. She walked into her own room.

After that, all was silent. The nightmare was over, the sea hag was dead, and they were all happy-or so they thought . . .
