Somewhere in an empty white space, a vortex opens and Owl along with the human visitors falls through it and crashes to the ground. The group groan as they are able to move away from each other and help each other up.

"What just happened?" Annie asks.

"That creep, Reala saw us, shocked NiGHTS into unconsciousness and made us all fall into a vortex. And now, we've landed to wherever this place is," June calmly says.

"Oh yeah," Annie sadly says.

"I can't believe we were able to find NiGHTS, only for us to get sent here and NiGHTS has been caught by her brother who is a complete jerk all over again," May says, displeased.

"He is a jerk," Elliot says.

Claris looks around and asks, "Where did Reala send us?"

"I'm not sure, but the place seems oddly familiar," Owl answers.

Will looks around and notices the forest with a clearing that is very familiar.

"Owl is right. This place is very familiar. I think we're in the world of that mysterious door," Will says.

Elliot also notices the clearing with the lake, "You're right. This is the clearing that we saw from NiGHTS' memories, but why are we sent here?"

Claris then turns her head and notices something different, something new from before.

"Hey guys, take a lot at this," Claris says.

She then hurries to what catches her attention, Elliot, Will and the others follow Claris to find an area that looks familiar. The area of this world has a roller coaster, swinging ride, Ferris wheel, and booths and tents that have games and food machines. The group is amazed to see the area with the rides, games, and food stands around here.

Junes says, "This place looks almost like the carnival for the Dream Festival."

"You're right," May says.

Will and Helen look around to see a large clock tower a few distance away and recognize it.

"Look over there. Isn't that the clock tower from Bellbridge City," Will says, pointing to the clock tower.

Helen says, "You're right. It looks just like it, but what is that on top."

Claris and the others look up themselves to notice something on top of the clock tower. The clock tower seems to have some kind of rode that is holding five bars and each of them is holding an orb: red, yellow, blue, green, and white. There is one that is connected to all of them in the middle and it's a diamond shape of a rainbow.

"You're right. I have never seen something like that at the tower before, and it's very pretty," Helen says.

"I have to agree. They look like the Ideyas that we have," Claris says.

"Ideyas? You told us that the Ideya are practically our dream energy and each one represents a different ideya of our dreams," May replies.

"That is correct my dear. Each Ideya represents a part of yourself. White Ideya represents Purity, the Blue Ideya is Intelligence, the Green Ideya is Wisdom/Growth, the Yellow Ideya is for Hope. Finally, the Red Ideya of Courage which is the most powerful one. Of course, there is a rare occasion that two visitors possessed very pure power from them," Owl says.

Claris says, "I remember that. As it turned out that Elliot and I were the ones with rare Red Ideyas and that's why the Nightmarens especially Wizeman and Reala were after us."

"Yes. They were after Helen and me for the same reason and to capture NiGHTS and force her to rejoin them again," Will says.

"I have to wonder who the Ideyas were placed on top of the tower," Helen replies.
