Chapter 19- Sweet dreams... Or not!

4:00 in the morning on a Saturday and the SPD base was quiet and still. That is apart from one lone figure stalking the corridor to the yellow and pink rangers room. Typing in the code the figure opened the door and stepped inside, chuckling slightly at the sight before him.

Z was sprawled out on her bed, her yellow duvet tangled around her and a yellow pillow discarded on the floor. Her dark hair was tied back in a messy bun and her pajamas consisted of a baggy grey shirt and yellow and white stripped trousers. Rolling his eyes the figure moved his gaze to the pink ranger.

Syd however was the complete opposite of her yellow counterpart. She was lying on her right hand side, nestled under her pink duvet which covered her body just below her hips, with her beloved stuffed elephant, peanuts, tucked under one arm while the other lay ontop of her duvet. Her blonde curls lay about her head framing her make-up free face. The figures eyes traced over her body and took in the sight of her nightwear. Syd was wearing a loose fitting nightgown that ended about mid thigh, it was baby pink and had a white bow tied to the end of each spaghetti strap.

Once again the figure chuckled at the sight of the two women that he had chosen to be his guinea pigs they were completely different and yet he was fascinated by both. Raising his hands, black smoke appeared in each and he directed the two dark clouds towards the girls. When the smoke was absorbed into them he bowed slightly whispering, " Sweet dreams ladies... or not" with that he vanished and the base was once again silent. That is until the two rangers in question began thrashing about in their beds.

Z's head. (Just before the black smoke entered her head)

Z was at a picnic with the other rangers and they were all laughing and messing around. Sky was chasing Syd who had run off with his SPD hand book, Jack was stuffing his face on the picnic food. And Bridge and herself were playing a game of frisbee. It was a rather hot day and the sun was shining brightly on the field through the clear blue sky. They had music playing in the background and it was just a brilliant day. Suddenly a dark cloud came across the sky and Z stopped what she was doing. She looked around and found that she was no longer in the field but she was on the peak of a mountain and there was fire all around her. Also her friends had disappeared and she was alone. Shaking, Z began to look around but she found that she couldn't move and in the distance she could hear voices, the closer they got the louder they got. She now recognised them as the voices from the nightmare realm and she tried to cover her ears with her hands at what they were saying.

FREAK

WHY DON'T YOU JUST DIE!

Normal POV

Z was now thrashing about in her bed, whimpering and tears were streaming down her face. Meanwhile Syd was in a nightmare of her own.

Syd's head. (Just before the black smoke entered her head)

Syd had managed to drag the others to a shopping mall and she was collecting clothes excitedly. The boys were siting on the bench outside the changing rooms clearly bored but she didn't care, Z was looking at the selection of jeans when she suddenly disappeared. Syd was puzzled but she went into the changing rooms regardless. She was trying on her fourth ourtfit when suddenly the lights in the changing room went out. The dark had always freaked her out and she reached for the handle only to discover that it wasn't there anymore. She spun round hoping to find a way out when she heard a sinister laugh and then a rumble. She was now very scared and her fear intensified as she realised that the walls and ceiling were closing in on her. She reached for the metal bracelet and tried to transform into the element but to her dismay her powers wouldn't work and when she punched the wall she was only met by a jolt of pain as her knuckles split. The only thing she could do was scream and scream she did.

Normal POV

Syd was shaking and screaming, her covers tangled around her and her left hand was dripping blood. Meanwhilein Z's nightmare ...

Z's head.

The voices had intensified and Z couldn't take anymore. Suddenly she saw a figure step towards her and she began pleeding and begging for help. The figure mearly stepped towards her and swiped at her face with a sharp nail and blood flooded through the cut. Then in one swift motion it put its claws on her shoulders and although she was begging for it not to, the figure pushed her over the cliff.

Normal POV

Z was now screaming and a gash had appeared on her face. Syd was now choking as though she was having the air crushed out of her which she was...

Syd's head

There was now about 2 inches between her and the wall infront of her and the one behind her. The air in the room was becoming thin and her screaming had drained her She placed her hands on the walls as though it would stop them but it didn't. Suddenly a figure appeared infront of her and she began begging it to help her. However the figure just laughed and wrapped a claw around her neck. Syd could feel her neck bruising and hot tears fell faster from her eyes. With one last laugh the figure let go and Syd gasped for breath, looking up she saw the figure touch the walls then move his hands together before disappearings. Suddenly the walls gave one last grunt before closing in faster.

Normal POV

Suddenly both girls jolted out of their heads. They were both crying and shaking. Looking over at eachother they nodded in a silent agreement, put on their slippers and nightgowns and headed out the door to the common room. Once there they looked at the clock and saw it was only 5:00, it'd be another 2 hours before Sky, Jack or Bridge would be up, but they couldn't bear to be in their rooms any longer, so they walked to individual chairs and finally let the tears fall freely, completely oblivious to the cuts and bruises that now covered them.

Authors Note.

I personally really like this chapter. I couldn't decide whether to give the nightmares to Syd and Z or Sky and Bridge but I decided on the girls because they would be much more emotional and nightmares tend to have greater affects on girls. (not being sexist its been proven) So anyway what did you think? I need some ideas for my next chapter for instance I need to know who I should make find the girls and what state they should be in. BTW it's saturday in the story and it's their day off. So Please please please review. REVIEW REVIEW REVIEW.

I LOVE YOU ALL LOADS.
