TW // brief blood in Kimiko's nightmare. Skip the bold part if you want!

──────────────────

IT WAS LATE AT NIGHT IN THE CAVE. Kimiko tossed and turned in one of the beds Wind helped make for newcomers.

In her nightmare, she was imagining herself back on Sanguinia. The war between the two species was going on, a young Kimiko scared and wondering what to do. 

Alongside her was Hanji, her cousin. A white-haired Sanguis with dark brown skin was aside them, holding hands with Kimiko to try and calm her down. They stood with their backs to each other.

---

What are we going to do?!  Kimiko questioned, her heart racing like crazy. 

Let's see what  happens. Hopefully this shield will protect us!  Hanji voiced, creating a dark purple barrier around them, which pulsed with electricity around it.

It will only be for a few minutes, though! Both of our species are a lot stronger when it comes to their want for blood!  the Sanguis spoke.

Shit...Yuki's right. Kimiko realized that.

Some Sanguis charged at the three in their normal forms, their eyes glowing with red diamond pupils in them. They faced the impact of the shield, some falling down. However, an Enguis was able to get through by creating an ice spear.

DAMMIT!  Hanji grit his teeth, trying to restore the shield. But it was no use. They were starting to wear it down.

One of the Sanguis went right for Yuki. Kimiko's instinct kicked in, her heterochromatic hues -  orange and blue - glaring at the Sanguis. 

Don't hurt her! GAH!

Kimiko!

--

Kimiko stumbled back, feeling pain registering . God it hurt like hell and wait...what was on her hand? She moved it away to see blood on it, dripping down. Some was dripping down from where her blue eye used to be.

--

Ow! Kimiko winced, creating an ice and fire sword respectively. Even with one wounded eye, she was still going to fight.

Yuki and Hanji readied their weapons as well. They fended off most of the Sanguis and Enguis coming at them. However, a sudden whooshing breeze went past. Looking over, they saw the source being rifts tearing into the atmosphere.

What? Where'd those come from? Yuki exclaimed as a number of their kind were swept into the rifts.

 She stabbed her weapon into the ground to try and keep herself from suffering the same fate. But she ended up being picked up by the gust. 

Yuki! 

Kimiko tried to reach out for her, her and her girlfriend's hands nearly touching before Yuki screamed, going through a rift. 

NO!  the young Kimiko cried out, seeing more rifts pop up. The two held on for dear life, the winds from them being too strong.

Kimiko then saw something in the sky as she and Hanji were sucked into a rift. And the large piece of rock was starting to burn through the planet's atmosphere before everything went black.

---

"AH!"

Kimiko screamed herself awake, panting and sweat beading down from her forehead. She looked around, seeing that most of the other entities were asleep.
