Within the Nightmare realm, the castle of Queen Jung Moroi stands tall, it's foundation rooted into the ground. Nightmarish creatures fly around the castle, as lightning crackles in the air within the realm. Inside the castle's throne room, the nightmare queen sits in her chair, staring down at the floor. Her gaze fixated on footage of the last few fights the Dreamranger's have had. As she watches, she taps the arm of her chair with one of her hands, the claw like nails making a drumming noise.

"My lady." The voice of Jung's right hand Raison calls out, he entering the room quietly.

"What is it Raison?" She replies.

Raison, the deformed knight clad in shining unchinked armor walks up to his queen, going down to his knees after reaching his destination.

"Our latest batch of intel has informed me that the Dreamrangers have continued to defeat all warriors we send down, and that they're getting stronger every time."

"Spare me from the obvious dear Raison, I can easily see that." She returns in her usual icey smooth voice.

"There's something else."

"Really now?" Jung starts. "And what would that be?"

"It seems as though they now have a way of receiving things from the Dreaming." Raison informs her.

"I see." Jung purrs out.

She turns away from the footage of the three warriors of dreams to look out of a nearby window. Before her lies her kingdom, a kingdom full of hellish horrors. As she watches the happenings outside of her window, Raison slowly stands up.

"My lady, shall I send down another wraith?"

"Why of course."

Raison nods his head some and heads towards the door and leaves. After leaving his highness, Jung releases a sigh before her lips slowly form into a smirk. The gold within her pitch black eyes glittering some.

"Enjoy the easy life while you can rangers. For soon, all of my fury shall be unleashed upon you. And even Morpheus won't be able to help you." She purrs out sensually, laughing a little afterwords.

Fourth Dream: Flowers, Friends, and Fighting!

In the Dreamwarrior's house, which is attached to Aimi's, Keiji and Paige sit huddle in front of a table, they trying to hook something up. While they do so, Syuri lays on the couch, eating an apple while Aimi stands behind her. She scratching her head at what is currently happening.

"So what are they hooking up exactly?" She asks.

Syuri takes a bite from her apple. She chews on it slowly before swallowing. "A computer." She answers, her mouth still full of some apple.

"A computer?"

"Yep." Syuri replies, taking another bite from her fruit.

"How hard is it to hook up a computer? Even my little brother could do it, and he's only four." Aimi says back, she leaning her elbows down against the couch.

"It's a special computer Miss Aimi." Paige responds.

"Special how?

"Well, it will allow us to get in contact with people in the dream kingdom." Paige answers.

"Can't you already do that with those phones of your's?" Aimi questions, waving her hand while pointing to one of the three's dream cellulars laying on the floor.

"Yes, but this will allow for better communication." Paige answers back again, she then returning back to the task at hand.

"If you say so." Aimi sighs.

After a few more minutes past, Keiji falls against the floor, sighing in relief."

"Finally."

"Did you finish it?" Syuri questions her comrade tiredly.

"Yeah." Keiji replies.

"Good, now try to get in contact with Edogawa." She barks out as she curls onto her side for a nap.

"Whose Edogawa?" Aimi asks, sliding down to sit next to Syuri.

"He runs the technical division of the dream army." Paige says.

"Ahhh."

Paige fiddles with the keyboard and some of the computer settings. Eventually, the screen flashes a bright blue before a video feed comes into focus. Keiji then rises up to set next to Paige, Aimi climbing down to join them, Syuri remaining on the couch in a state of sleeping. After a couple of minutes, a man slides into view on a chair. The man's hair is short and dark brown/blonde, he wearing a pair of glasses on his face.

"Hello Edogawa." Paige and Keiji say, bowing their heads in respect.

"Ah, hello there Paige, Keiji." Edogawa responds. He then looks over at Aimi. "Syuri, you look different."

"Oh, that's not Syuri. That's our friend and host Aimi." Paige explains.

"Ah. Well then, hello Aimi." Edogawa responds, bowing his head to Aimi.

Aimi returns the gesture before standing up. "Hello there Edogawa. I'd stay and chat..but I'm going out for a bit."

"Where are you going Miss Aimi?" Paige asks, looking up at her.

"I don't know, I just feel like going out."

"Whatever." Keiji replies.

Aimi sighs some and heads to the door, leaving through it. Some time later, Aimi is walking through the street. While walking, her mind constantly returns to what Syuri said a while back.

"Who says we're human...or living?"

What did Syuri mean? Are they another type of being? Are they aliens? Are they dead? That was the one she kept thinking about. Was it possible that these three who had become her acquaintances actually dead people? She wanted to know, she wanted answers. But she didn't know if she wanted the truth.

Aimi sighs some as she continues to walk. She soon stops, she noticing a group of boys standing huddled around two other people. The boys from what she could tell were taunting the other two. She could see that one was a girl, and was crying. The other one, a boy, was shouting at them. Aimi scowls and runs over to them.

"Hey!" She shouts as she reaches the boys. They look behind them and laugh before running away. Aimi then looks down at the girl who is crying. The boy, who she assumes is her brother kneels down to her, seeing if she's alright.

"Is she alright?" Aimi asks, kneeling down to look at her.

"She's fine." The boy answers.

Aimi looks at the girl who is still crying. She notices that the girl has a cut on her leg. As she looks up, the girl looks at her almost fearfully. Aimi then smiles at her.

The three sit inside of a garden. Aimi down on her knees, she cleaning up the cut on the little girl's leg while the brother watches.

"Thank you miss for helping my sister." The boy tells Aimi.

"It's no problem." She replies, she rubbing antiseptic on the wound.

"I'm Tetsuro and this is Kei."

"I'm Aimi." Aimi replies, smiling at Tetsuro. She places a bandage on Kei's leg, resulting in Kei flinging herself against Aimi in response. As she does so, Aimi smiles a little.

The the three then walk down the aisles of flowers. Talking while they do so.

"So this is your grandparent's garden?" Aimi asks, looking at all the different flowers around her.

"Yes. They've had this place since before we were born." Tetsuro explains.

"Mhm" Kei adds in, nodding some.

"Well it's very beautiful. I've never seen so many flowers." Aimi tells the two children as she continues to walk between them.

The three continue to walk down the aisle ways. But after a while, they hear something. They look around, but don't notice anything and return to walking. Every few steps, they hear the noise again, which sounds like that of shifting. Finally, they turn around right as the noise is uttered again. And as they turn around, and face that which was making the noise, their mouths open in terror, all three then screaming at once.

----------------------------------------------------------------------

Start of commercial break

-----------------------------------------------------------------------

End of commercial break

-----------------------------------------------------------------------

The three continue to scream as they look at the creature that was making the noise. The creature being that of a mutated Venus fly trap, it leaking fluids and it's multiple vines whipping around in the air. It opens it's mouth, and release a high pitched screech, causing nearby windows to shatter. The three cover there ears' quickly and then run away from this mutated being.

The group run as fast as their legs will let them, they weaving in and out of the different aisles of plants trying to find an exit. They soon reach one, but discover that it is covered completely in thorned vines. As Aimi curses under her breath, the three young ones hear the screech of the fly trap behind them. Aimi turns her head some, and sees that it's close to being near them. Aimi grabs the wrists of both Tetsuro and Kei, and dashes off again.

She drags them roughly and quickly through different aisles of flowers, the Venus mutation behind them. In an attempt to try and trip them up, it flings it's extra vines around, smashing them into different flower pots and holders, sending shards of clay and petals into the air and against them. The clay cutting into their skin every so often. This carries on as Aimi and the two children try to escape, and the mutation chases after them, screeching all the way.

Aimi and the kids eventually see an unblocked exit, Aimi even letting out a sigh of relief.

"We're almost safe!' Kei cries out as tears run down her face from the horror she's currently living.

"That's right honey, we're almost there." Aimi assures Kei, and herself.

But right as the three are almost at the door, the fly trap wraith launches it's vines out, and wraps them around Aim's ankles. This causes her to let go of the children's wrists, and fall face first onto the dirt ground. She slowly turns onto her back to see what caused her to fall, and notices that she's been captured. Before Tetsuro and Kei can even get to her, the vines whip backwards, dragging Aimi along the ground. Her screams fill up that of the glasshouse, they combined with the screeching of the fly trap. Slowly yet quickly, Aimi is dragged through the dirt, getting ever so closer to the feet of her capture.

"SHUT YOUR EYES!" She cries out to the other two in the glasshouse, they doing as they're told. Aimi does the same, expecting to be killed any second now.

Death does not come though. Aimi's eyes open as she hears the sound of glass shattering. As they open, she sees Syuri and gang falling from the ceiling of the house, landing right on their feet as they hit the ground. As this happens, the vines that were dragging Aimi are cut from the creature. As Aimi looks at the three, she sees that Syuri is holding her Dream Blade. The three then rise to their feet.

"Did you really have to wake me up from my nap Aimi?" Syuri asks tiredly.

"Heh, I guess I just had to." She replies, grinning a little.

"Well I wish to get back to it, so let's make this as quick as possible." Syuri spouts out, the three already holding their Dream Cellulars.

The three warriors then rush forward towards their opponent, Tetsuro and Kei running of to Aimi.

"DREAMSCAPE OPEN!" The rangers shout, instantly transforming into their suits, each one holding their signature weapons.

Syuri and Keiji go straight up to the wraith, beginning to slash and stab at it viciously with their weapons. The Venus mutant though is capable enough to right back, it blocking and parrying with both it's arms, and it's other vines. As Keiji goes to stab it right in the center of it's body, the creature wraps two of it's vines around the Dream Trident. When Keiji looks up at it's face, it spits out some of the oozing liquid, it landing on Keiji's helmet and suit. This liquid causing the areas hit to begin dissolving. Keiji then rolls backwards, trying to swiped the ooze off as Syuri jumps back to avoid being hit by a vine.

Paige jumps up onto a rafter, aiming the Dream Shooter at the head of this being. She fires off her shots, but the mutant throws it's head back and into the air, vomiting out more of this poison liquid. The liquid substance slams into the blasts, dissolving them instantly. It then shoots a vine up, latching onto Paige's neck, causing her to drop the Dream Shooter. She clutches at her neck to try and rip the vine off, but can't do so, it sticking to her via thorns. The vine then suddenly whips down, causing Paige to slam against the rafter she was on and making it break, she slamming against the ground, the rafter landing on top of her back, causing her to scream out in pain.

Syuri, who is now laying on the ground from being slammed in the lower chest by a vine watches this. She then turns her head, and looks at Aimi, counseling the two children she was with who are crying and burying their faces into her body. She then stands up slowly, clutching the Dream Blade tightly.

"I think it's time I uproot this weed." She says softly, her voice very blunt with no emotion behind it.

Syuri then flips the blade part of her weapon down, and lifts the barrel part up, transforming it into gun mode. But she does not stop there. She then maneuvers the blade to where it is resting right under the barrel of the blaster, forming a gun blade. She then flashes forward like a flash of lightning, phasing in and out of the monster, her comrades, and Aimi's vision.

Suddenly, she then appears on the shoulder's of this mutant flower. She grabs hold of it's mouth with her left hand, and forces the mouth open, causing the poisonous substance to start flying out, she paying no attention as it splashes onto her suit. Syuri then shoves her Dream Blaster into the mouth of her enemy, she smirking behind her helmet. Right as Kei and Tetsuro open their eyes to watch, Syuri shouts out.

"WHITE DREAM BOMBER!"

She then pulls down on the trigger, sending a blast of white energy down the throat of the creature. The blade part then glows, shooting out a beam of gold light, it colliding with the sphere of white energy. Syuri then flips away quickly. She then slides over to Aimi, stopping once she reaches her and the kids. And as she does so, the wraith explodes in a burst of white and gold lightning, the blast forming a bit of a mushroom cloud. Keiji, Paige, Tetsuro, Kei, and Aimi looking on in shock of what Syuri just pulled off.

In Jung's throne room, she scowls down at what she just witnessed. She braking off part of her chair as she looks upon Syuri, whose suit is damaged from the venomous vomit. Raison standing behind her, watching in silence.

"Damn those Dreamrangers. They're blowing through everything I send at them. Don't they ever die?" She says to himself even with Raison in the room.

She then sits in her throne silently, her mind racing with what to do. Then, as Raison is about to open the door to exit the room, she snaps her fingers, her nails clicking together as she does so. She then begins laughing softly.

"Ohhhhh, ohhhh oh oh. I know how to kill those wretched heroes. I do indeed." Jung says smoothly as always.

She then spins around to face Raison directly.

"Raison my love."

"Yes my lady?" Raison asks.

"Remember that discovery I made a while back and spoke to you about for possibly use?"

Raison's eyes then twinkle a little with glee, he beginning to think he knows where this is going.

"I believe I do remember Lord Jung." He answers back.

"Good. Go fetch that discovery for me." Jung asks of her loyal servant, her black lips curling into a twisted, sadistic grin.
