The Diaries of Riolu Ungart: Part 6.2; The Dream Scape

alwaystheweirdones:

When I awoke, I found myself floating in grey cloudy void without any of my gear, completely nude, but shrouded in a colorful aura (ooc, think of the transformation sequence of Sailor Moon and you’ll know what I mean). I look in every direction, but there is just more clouds.
Out from the clouds with Scotch on the rocks in hand appears the Dream Man. He looks to his glass, swirls its contents for a moment, before fixing his gaze on me.
I ask him where we are, and he replies “My realm. The realm of smoke and shadows. The realm of dreams”.
I ask him why I’m here. He simply states “I pulled you here with the crystals as a test. A test to see…”
The waves his free hand over the space beneath us, clearing the smoke and revealing the 4,000 people missing from the town. Running, screaming, panicking.
“…if you were willing to make a deal. I’ll free these people, if you kill one person of my choosing when I call upon you.”
I look at the Dream Man in disgust. “You’re a powerful person, correct? Why can’t you just kill this person yourself? Why do you need me?”
The Dream Man takes a slow sip from his glass, then states “This person exists where I’m not permitted. I need someone capable of going where I cannot.”
Before I could respond, Sunshadow and Staab appear behind me, flailing in the clouds with the same colorful aura.
The Dream Man looks to them and says “Looks like you’ve been given more incentive to decide quickly.”
