Chapter 5: The Terrible Nightmare, Nya!

(Back in Chapter Four…)

They looked at each other for a second before Eddy said, "Did ya just feel something bite your necks just now?" he asked.

"Yes," Double D said with a nod of his head, "It felt like a mosquito bite, but much worse."

"Yeah," Ed agreed as he then made a little gasp, "I hope it wasn't a mosquito from the planet--"

"Shut it, Ed," Eddy snapped to his friend as he then grasped his head with his right hand, "I'm starting to get a headache now; I don't wanna hear anything like that now."

Soon the three Ed's split up to go to their houses, each of them now having a terrible headache. As soon as they entered their rooms in their houses, they all fell fast asleep into a nap…

(And now, onto Chapter Five…)

Meanwhile, in an unknown location near Peach Creek, we see a pure, snow white castle in the middle of a huge, deep crater. And here inside the castle was a man with dark, gray hair and dark, almost black violet eyes. He also had pointed ears and light blue-tinted skin.

"… It is almost time to attack the human race," the man stated with a raspy voice, "Raiki, Crizum, Pangia! It is time to step forward!"

Soon three male teenagers come out of the darkness in front of the blue skinned man. One of them was a white haired boy, while the other one was a red haired boy, and the other was a blue haired boy.

"You called for us, Master Falion?" questioned the blue of the group as he and the others bowed to the man.

"Yes, I want one of you to summon out an Ungero, so it can gather up any energy it can get tonight. We need the energy for myself," Master Falion said to the three teen boys, "I will not accept to much failure."

"Yes, Master Falion," stated the three boys as they soon disappeared back into the darkness…

It was now nine o' clock in the evening here in the little town of Peach Creek as we could see the sky in a dark, star-filled, evening sky. We soon come upon the Peach Creek Cul-De-Sac, where we come upon Eddy's house. We then come up to Eddy's room, where we see the short Ed tossing and turning in his short nap. He was currently in a dream… or a nightmare.

(Goes into Dream Sequence…)

An unnatural fog hung in the air in Eddy's dream. Although it was thick, one could still make out the figure of a young girl.

"Who are you…?"Eddy asked, as if echoing in the mist.

The 'girl' turned to towards Eddy, her image becoming clearer through the fog. It looked like… someone he knew, yet was not dressed in a way he would imagine her wearing. The girl was dressed up in a blue, cerulean dress that seemed to flow past her ankles. All in all, she looked like royalty.

It was Corina.

She wiped away something from her face, something wet. She smiled sadly and then tried to say something, or at least it appeared that way.

"Corina…? W-What do you want?" Eddy asked.

Corina motioned him to step forward. Eddy obliged and walked towards her with a worried look.

"Why… why are you crying?" Eddy asked to her and to himself with a worried voice.

Eddy was about a few feet away from the Corina, when he started feeling a terrible pain in his chest. It felt like he had just been stabbed. And when he looked down towards his chest, he widened his eyes in shock; he was stabbed in the back with a sword. He gasped in pain as the sword then left his back. Eddy soon collapsed to the ground with immense pain in his chest. He looked up to see another figure that was now beside Corina; the figure held a blood soaked sword in its hands.

The figure then walked away into the darkness, but not without saying, "Be prepared to say goodbye, Topaz Knight."

Corina continued to cry a river as she followed the figure with sadness clearly expressed on her face, "… I'm sorry, Eddy…"

The immense pain eventually became too much for Eddy as he started to close his eyes to the darkness. The vision of Corina walking away slowly dissolved from his view as he surrendered to the darkness of his mind…

(Ending Eddy's Dream/Nightmare Sequence…)

Eddy's eyes snapped open as he jolted upwards from his resting position, sweat pouring down from his forehead. He was gasping for air, as if he had just run a marathon, "W-What the heck?!" he exclaimed aloud as then started to calm down, realizing that what he had just experienced was only a dream. He then looked at the clock right beside his bed; 9:10pm.

Eddy made an irritated sigh as he placed his right hand on his forehead, "Stupid dream…"

Suddenly, he started to hear his phone ring from within his living room, "What the…?"

Eddy quickly got up from his bed as he then trailed to his living room to answer the phone, "Hello?" he answered with a slightly tired voice.

"Eddy? It's Double D."

"And Ed!"

"Huh? What are you two doin' up?"

"We both just woke up."

"Same here!"

"Okay, that's a little weird; I just woke up too."

"Whoa, creepy!"

"Eddy… Did you… just have a strange dream?"

Eddy paused for a second before saying, "Yeah, I did. Did you?"

"Yes."

"Yeah, nightmares are bad for Ed!"

"… What do ya think this means, Sockhead?"

"… I really can not say…"

Suddenly, the three Ed's heard a loud 'thump sound coming from outside, "What was that sound?" questioned Eddy.

"I-I don't know. It sounded like it came from the center parking lot."

"… We gotta meet up there."

"Huh?!"

"Huh? Why?"

"It's just this feeling I got, alright?!" Eddy slightly snapped.

"… Very well, I will see you two in a second."

"Bye guys!"

Soon all three Ed's hung up their phones as they soon trailed towards their front doors, heading out to the Cul-De-Sac…

Yay! Finally got this chapter up! Next, we'll see them all in action! ...Or as close to action as I can get! XD
