Ninjago The Next Generation

Chapter 33

Ray

Ray was watching Reese sleep, hoping he was going to be ok. She sighed, worried for her brother as he laid there almost lifeless. She brushed a strand of hair from his face and whispered to him, "Please Reese, stay with us." She begged, "I can't even imagine what you are going through right now." She sighed.

Reese

Reese held his hands on his head, "no, this is all a dream, this is all a dream! Ok, the last thing I remember doing was fighting the overlord!" He said. Ray walked to him, "Reese, don't over think, you are home."

Reese shook his head and backed up slowly, "this is.. this is all in my head," he said. After backing up he turned and dashed away. He ran all the way down the hill and saw the door he left from. He ran back through and closed it. He took many deep breaths, "that.. that was weird.."

"or what was meant to happen." A voice spoke. He turned to see someone who looked just like him right there. "Who are you?!" He questioned. The double smiled, "I'm you! Well kinda, basically you are trapped in your mind at the moment and need to find a way out before we die."

"Die?" Reese asked. "Garmadon struck us, every second we get closer to death, you are the only one who can help us." The other Reese said. The original Reese shook his head, "no! I can't die, I have to watch over Jade! She.. she needs me! And Dianna! She is my girlfriend and I love her! And.. and Ray! My sister I-,"

"Woah there buddy," the other Reese stopped him, "the more you freak out the more our body's amune system stops working, so the more calm you are the better chance we will survive." He explained, "now don't worry, I'll stick with you and help you until you get back to normal, or die. Either way we are stuck together." He shrugged.

"Ok, so what can I call you since I can't call you Reese, since I am Reese." The double sighed, "well, you can call me Alastor." He suggested. "Why Alastor?"

"That's what Dad almost named us." "What?" Reese asked. Alastor chuckled, "no, we were almost named Phoenix. I just like it." He smiled. Reese nodded, "ok Alastor, can you tell me what to do?" He asked.

Alastor nodded, "we are trapped in your mind, we have memories, fantasies, dreams, all you could ever use with your brain!" He said, " he gotta fix everything that is wrong before the dark magic gets to it or we are," he used his thumb to draw a line by his neck, "dead." Reese nodded, "ok I got it, so where should we explore first?" He asked.

"How about that dream you had about Dianna," he grinned. Reese blushed, "I have no idea what you're talking about." Alastor shook his head, " don't try to hide it, I know everything. We are bonded and I know all your thoughts. So yeah, that dream you did propose to her. How sweet. You got a Diamond ring if I'm right?" He asked. Reese nodded yes.

  "Good, I know everywhere in your brain, so I can lead you to your dreams, this way." He started to walk off. "Wait!" Reese stopped him, "how do you see anything?" He asked. Alastor stopped, "oh right," he clapped his hands and lights turned on. Reese jolted a bit from shock. He noticed hallways of hallways, filled with rooms. Reese was in awe. He turned to Alastor, "how did you-,"

"You may be us, but I'm the host of our brain. I help you with stuff, basically everything. You know that voice you always hear in your head?" He asked. Reese nodded slowly. Alastor smiled, "that's me! I've been here the whole time!"

Reese smiled, "kinda cool. So can you show me where to find that dream?" He questioned. Alastor nodded, "yup, follow me!"

Jade

Jade marched to the room where Reese was. She slammed open the door to see Ray watching. Ray turned and looked at her, "Jade! Are you ok?" She questioned. Jade looked at her dying friend, "what happened?" She asked, mad.

"The Overlord.. I thought you already knew.." Ray replied. Jade clenched her fist, "Morrow," she hissed through her teeth. She left and ran to her room. She slammed open the door, "Why?!" She yelled. Morrow looked at her, "ok, so don't be mad, but I didn't tell you about Reese cuz I didn't want you to freak out!"

"Not freak out?!" She said, " I'm mad Morrow! I'm so mad at you!" She yelled. She then turned and started to walk out, " don't bother me again."

Reese

Reese and Alastor had made it to the room where he had the dream about his beautiful girlfriend. Alastor opened the door, "Ladies first." Reese crossed his arms, "alright, go on ahead." He replied. Alastor held a hand to his chest, "why thank you." He then kicked Reese in first. "Hey!" Reese yelled.

Alastor smirked, "whoops." Reese got up, " that was on purpose." He spat out. "So what if it was?" He asked, " Now get up, we have a job to do." Reese sighed and got up, "your kind of a pain you know that?" Alastor smirked, "thank you, I try."

   Reese sighed, "I can't believe I share a body and brain with you." The double grinned, "believe it cuz we are stuck with each other till the end of time." Reese sighed, "Whatever, let's get this done with so I can return home."

"We." Alastor corrected. The two of them walked in and saw the familiar dream. There stood Dianna, in a beautiful maroon dress, waiting outside a huge building. Alastor shoved Reese ahead of him, " Go propose to your girlfriend!" He said, "it will be good practice for the future." Reese gasped, "what?" Alastor shook his head, "nothing, nothing. Now go propose, he is the ring." He handed over a box. Reese took it and opened it. "Emerald ring, how pretty."

"Emerald?" Alastor took back the box, "it's supposed to be Diamond! The magic is affecting your memory and dreams!" He said, taking it back, "this is bad!"
