Lily has always hated going to bed late. If she goes to bed later than 11, she'll believe she will wake up at 10 am.

What doesn't help is sharing a room with her little sister, Sophia. She is a big night owl compared to Lily. While Lily sleeps she is up at night, when Sophia is asleep during the day Lily is up.

Years after being in the same room, they learned they they're both light sleepers. Whenever one is doing something when the other is asleep, that person wakes up.

That's what Lily thought when she suddenly heard a ominous voice say, "Go..." It caused her to wake up and immediately scan the room. Sophia wasn't even awake. She was sleeping quietly in her bed with her iPad still in her hands playing a random video.

Lily thought that the weird voice was Sophia, but after thinking about it for a second, it did not sound like her. She didn't even know what gender it could be from.

"Go...to...base." The voice randomly came back and even talked about a base? What base? Lily thought. Seconds later, nothing else happened. The voice didn't appear again, there were none of those weird dreams that the other three apparently had. Lily felt comfortable enough to go back to sleep. Thankfully, she was still sleepy enough to go back and hopefully dream of nothing again.

Usually, Lily would wake up only picturing nothing but darkness. She thought that the dreams with the other three would be the only werid ones that would appear. Tonight, she was wrong.

Right away, Lily found herself standing in the middle of the basketball courts of Coldburne Middle School. The night sky was not pink, it was dark black with no stars present, there was no wind, but she still felt a bit of cold in the air. Every building was in the same place like it was in the real world.

Suddenly, the voice came back and louder. "Go!" It sounded like it was so close to her ear, that it woke her back up and notice that she wasn't in her bed anymore. She shot up and already felt wind push her hair up. She was back at the courts, and not just in her dream, but in reality.

Millions of questions popped up in her mind as she stood up. What the time was? Did Sophia know she was there? Did she do anything to stop her from leaving? Did her parents know?! How did she even get here? It felt like she was going to end up with a huge headache after this.

"Lily?" A familiar voice startled her as she turned around.

"Hi, Rayne?" She gasped. It looked like she was asleep to. She was wearing black and blue checkered pants, an oversized grey demon slayer shirt, her stringy black hair didn't even look like she did anything to it. It was all springy and all over the place.

"What are you gong here?" Lily asked.

However, Rayne didn't answer and just asked with a surprisingly quiet tone. "What are you doing here?"

"What are all of us doing here?!" A loud familiar voice startled both girls. They looked behind Rayne and saw that it was really George with Vincent walking next to him.

"I'm guessing you all heard that weird voice too?" Vincent asked, folding his arms. He should feel cold. He was wearing dark grey shorts with a dark blue shirt. There have been windy nights recently, like tonight. He and George were wearing similar outfits.

"Yeah, what the hell was that?" George said.

Rayne sighed. "Whatever it was, it lead us here and hopefully it will answer our questions."

"Have you opened the door, yet?" Vincent asked the group, but was looking at Lily.

"No!" Lily exclaimed, as quietly as she could. "I just got here!"
