Having arrived at the Stump, Craig told his friends all of the details of his premonition dream, with them being astonished and a bit afraid.
"And then earthquake had swallowed Miles whole, and this monster had looked at me and screamed at me, scaring me" Craig explained as he drew the details on paper.
"That sounds so terrifying to be true!" JP exclaimed in a bit of fear.
"JP, this dude has had a vision nightmare, of course it may be real" Twig added.
"So, if the dream was a vision of the future, the prophecy may be true and you may need to start sword training, Craig" Kelsey hypothesized.
"Well, I am not the only one who should train, I feel like we should train for the battle together. Miles said that I shouldn't do this alone, so can you help me with the training" Craig asked, determined to do what it takes to protect his home.
Kelsey, JP, Omar, and Twig looked at each other, they then looked at Craig and nodded.
"You think we would say no to that? Of course, we will train!" Kelsey exclaimed in determination.
"I'm not into this whole fighting business so I'm going to try" JP said, meekly.
"I will teach you everything about sword fighting" Kelsey exclaimed, holding her pipeline sword.
"You will also have to be cautious and focused on your skills so we will teach you that" Omar added.
"Don't worry, we will be there every step of the way!" Twig encouraged.
Craig then nodded, ready for his training. "Then let's get this training on the road" He affirmed. And with that, The Stump Kids helped Craig to train for his upcoming battle, they also have trained to battle themselves. Before long, Craig was starting to use his sword, he still had a lot to learn but he started to get the hang of it with him being able to block Kelsey's attack.
"You're getting pretty good at this, Craig" Kelsey complimented at his improving skills.
"Thanks, Kelsey, I'm certain I can cut a tree down now!" Craig exclaimed as he looked at a nearby tree. Craig ran toward the tree, ready to cut it down, he suddenly felt a sharp pain in his head before he can go through the action. Craig groaned as he held his head, his friends looked in worry.
"Craig! Are you ok?!" Twig said in worry, coming towards him. Craig didn't answer Twig as he felt his head throbbing, Suddenly, his eyes opened widely, and he saw something different about the Creek: It was destroyed as many trees had fallen and the ground had cracks in it.
"Kelsey?! JP?! Omar?! Twig?!" Craig stuttered, scared. Craig then looked around as many kids of the Creek running for their lives, like something was happening and they were in danger, Suddenly, Brambles came from the ground and trapped Craig in a cage-like barrier. "W-what's going on?!" He trembled. Craig then saw everything in Herkleton crumbling into bits and then saw an malovent spirit, it was the same spirit he saw in his dreams.
Craig screamed as he let go of the sword and fell over, He then rubbed his eyes and opened them: Everyone was back in the way before he had his vision, His friends gathered around him, worried about him. "What happened there, Craig?" JP asked, worried.
"I... I saw the Creek...but it was destroyed...and I saw the spirit again" Craig stuttered, scared.
"Take deep breathes, Craig, just take deep breathes" Omar instructed, trying to calm Craig down.
Craig took some deep breathes, calming himself down, he then sighed. "I saw another vision, everything was being destroyed and everyone was running for their lives, there was this spirit, and she was destroying everything. I think it was the same spirit I saw in my dream" Craig explained.
"Man, your mind has been out of control, first you have a nightmare and now this" Twig comforted in worry.
"I think you need one of those dream journals, so that you can write out your dreams and describe them" Omar suggested.
"Dream journal?" Craig questioned.
"A diary to write your dreams in, maybe you could record your dreams in there" Omar answered.
"You know what, kid? I advise to do a sleepover today, that way we can all be there beside you" Twig suggested.
"That sounds like a great idea, maybe if we are lucky, we can enter in the dream ourselves" Kelsey added. Craig nodded as he agreed with the idea, with the plan in action, The Stump Kids is prepared to get to the bottom of the upcoming events that will happen.
