Rath blinked.
And blinked.
And blinked and blinked and blinked.
I guess you couldn't really call this a place, but…it was something…
To put it in his own words…well, I guess you could call it "a space of vast emptiness that gave one the feeling of security and curiosity". Okay, maybe that was a bit too descriptive, but it certainly defined the place. There were no walls, just a floor that wasn't there. Well, he hoped that at least, because if the floor actually WASN'T there, it'd mean that he was falling and not knowing it. And besides the floor fact, there was nothing. It was completely empty. All white.
"Gurghle…"
Ah, there went his stomach again. The fire dragon knight was still suffering from the loss of proper food. He sadly patted his stomach and sighed. He would do anything for food right now. OOH, especially strawberries. And on another note, Ohkami-san has probably never informed you on this, but Rath's favorite food is strawberries. Lady Raseleane had grown strawberries in her garden when Rath was young, and so, Rath being curious and very…odd…decided to take a bunch one day when he was in the gardens, because he thought they look very much like the color of blood, which reminded him of demons, which then made him chomp down into them because that was how he "fought" demons in those days. ((let's all squeal together now at the thought of uber-cute baby Rath chomping down into a giNORMOUS strawberry. AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAWWWWWWWWW!))
Pop!
Rath blinked.
And blinked and blinked.
In front of him, with a loud "pop!", appeared a single strawberry.
Rath thought for a moment, then thought a thought that was very reasonable and thoughtful. Which was a big deal for him, since he didn't really think much, except for thoughts about killing and ruthlessly slaughtering disfigured demons.
"I…wish…I had a lot more strawberries?" asked Rath into the white horizon.
And then…
POP! POP! POP! POP! POP! POP! POP! POP! POP! POP! POP! POP! POP! POP! POP! POP! POP! POP! POP! POP! POP! POP! POP! POP! POP! POP! POP! POP! POP! POP! POP! POP! POP! POP!
And so on…
And the next thing Rath knew, he was completely covered in a mound of strawberries. His hunger overcame him, and so the next thing he did was eat his way out of the giant pile of delicious red fruits to be NEXT to the mound instead of IN it.
'So…' he thought, as he bit down into another strawberry, 'whatever I wish for appears in this white place?' he thought harder and another idea came into his head. 'I wish…I had a sword.'
And with another little "pop!", a sword, identical to his original, appeared in his clawed hand.
'Now…I wish there were a lot of strong demons for me to fight and kill!' he thought excitedly, leaving his strawberry pile at last and standing up on his two clawed feet. 'two clawed feet…wait a minute! If I can wish for anything, maybe…' "I WISH I WERE RATH ILLUSER!" he yelled with joy, cheering at his own brilliance.
And with another pop, his image changed. He was once again back in his human form, clutching his own sword in his own human hands.
And then the demons came.
And came and came.
And Rath killed.
And killed and killed.
"THIS IS SO MUCH FUN!"

"I wonder if he's okay in there…" muttered Water, focusing at the sword in his fire companion's hand.
Fire smirked, "HA! He's probably begging me to set him free!"
'I have a feeling it's the opposite of that…' thought Earth to himself, feeling happy vibes coming from the sword.
"Is it really that bad in there?" asked Rune, feeling worried about the Fire Dragon Knight for the umpteenth time.
Water gave a small laugh, "Really, Fire is exaggerating. It really is NOT that bad. Actually, some would call it complete paradise. Anything you wish for comes true in there. Well, there are some rules, but not many. We just happen to get bored of 'paradise' so don't enjoy as much as in our younger days."
"REALLY!" shouted Thatz, thoughts of endless amounts of extremely delicious foods and oodles of gold and jewels ran through his head.
"You betcha!" said Earth, removing the sword at his hip out of its sheath. "You wanna give it a try?"
"Er-" Thatz hesitated and stopped from his gluttonous thoughts of food and gold. The thought of being sucked into a pointy object didn't really appeal to him. But then again…the food…
"OKAY!" ((I guess the thoughts of food overcame all fear))
"Okie Doke then!" Earth positioned the sword over the ground, mimicking what he had seen his master do so many times, and shouted, "Earth! Into the sword!"
And with a quiet "woosh", Thatz was gone.
Rune slightly tilted his small dragon head to the left. It was something he was getting used to doing whenever something curious came up. And, well, this WAS curious. He placed his clawed fingers on the broad, blue sword at his human form's side. "Can I…maybe try, too?"
"Hm?" Water looked down at the small dragon near his feet. "Oh, sure!" he answered obediently, withdrawing the sword from its sheath. And then, quite robotically, he mimicked his master's moves and the dragon was soon gone just like his companions.
"I wonder if they're having fun in there…" said Earth aloud, staring intently at the three swords laid out on the bed.
"Well, for normal people," said Water, stretching out on the bed himself. He was tired out because of the day's events, "I guess they would be having the time of their lives."
"You're probably right."
"Yeah."
"…Water?"
The Fire and Earth dragons looked to the bed, wondering why Water wasn't commenting back. A silent snore met their ears, and they slightly smiled as they saw that their companion had already fallen asleep.
"Funny, I didn't think that Water slept," said Earth, removing the swords from the bed.
"Really Earth, he's only a dragon. Everyone has to sleep," answered Fire back, pulling the blanket over their sleeping comrade. ((AW! SOME BORTHERLY LOVE THERE! wait… how exactly are the dragons related?))
"I know that!" snapped Earth, stretching out on the floor, which felt much more comfortable to him. "I'm just saying he doesn't seem like the type to fall asleep in front of people…"
"Well, Water IS one to keep to himself," murmured Fire, "He likes to keep up a good appearance."
"Nnn…"
"Earth?"
The Earth dragon, too, had fallen asleep. Fire sighed and found an extra blanket, not wanting his friend to catch a cold, then laid himself down on the nearby couch next to the window. And there, he fell asleep, watching the stars outside shoot across the night sky.
