I tried getting us both together into the dream. It wasn't easy and certainly took forever but I did manage to get us into the dream. Sometimes I wish, I was wrong but as I thought, the dream was one hell of a dark place. Why was it even like this? Besides there was this sound again.... it was a little girl crying and we all knew who it was. This was after all Eri's dream. There couldn't be anyone else but her.

Hitoshi: It really worked....

Me: Yeah....

Hitoshi: What's the sound?

Me: Eri....

Hitoshi: Is she crying?

Me: Last time I found her... she was hiding.

Hitoshi: From what?

Me: I don't know.

Hitoshi: Can you manipulate dreams as well.

Me: Normally yes... this one... not really.

Hitoshi: What does not really mean?

Me: I can do small stuff but not completly manipulate like I used to do it in other dreams.

Hitoshi: I see... can you at least make it brighter?

Me: I can try.

I did try but once again, I failed to do so. Instead I could only give us some enhanced vision so that it would look brighter to us. This dream, no, this place was quite weird. I should have been able to do it but like last time, I couldn't change anything. It felt as if this was another persons dream and I was in the wrong one.

Hitoshi: I think I can pin point where the crying sound comes from.

Me: Over there. That's where she was last time.

Hitoshi: Then let's go.

We got to Eri, nothing happened at all. This just a room filled with blackness and nothing else besides it at all. Tho she was clearly hiding from something.

Hitoshi: Eri? Can you hear me?

The little girl did react to us once again but she was shushing us down. Just like last time. Nothing changed at all.

Eri (whispering): It can hear you... it will finde us.

Me (whispring): Who or what?

Eri (whispering): The monster.

Hitoshi: Monster?

It was only now that we could hear a roaring sound and some scratching or more like tapping sounds. My fur was standing up and I could feel a shiver running down my spine. Before I even knew it, I was hiding behind Hitoshi and still backing away from the direction we heard the sound.

Hitoshi: Izuku?

Me: No.... nah-ah... we have to get out of here.

Hitoshi: We can't leave her.

Me: I know that but I ain't staying here. This is her dream after all.

Then the darkness started to fade a bit. There was a grey spot that was coming closer to us bit by bit. The eyes were red and they were staring at us. Next thing I noticed where the sharp white teeth that were not threatening us per say but they were quite something to fear for sure. For now all I could see was a dark figure with red eyes and a Cheshire smile filled with white sharp pointy teeths. There was no doubt in my mind that it could kill us with just one bite.

Me: Run.

Hitoshi: What?

Me: RUN!

It wasn't me who started running first but Eri and she seemed more than scared. Then I started running, Hitoshi followed right behind me. As our stepping sounds started increasing in rhythm, the sound of claws behind us started to get louder and louder, clearer and clearer with each step.

It was only then that I did it....

I turned around....

The image I saw made me blood freeze.

Me: WAKE UP!!!

I just had to tear this dream apart no matter what. This thing was alive. I knew this. I felt it. It was not just a nightmare... it could kill us... if someone dies in a dream.... they would sleep forever being braindead.... this is how it worked. Of course I've never actually seen this happen but it was something I knew from instincts. It was as if my quirk had already told me all the informaitons I needed to know about dreams and what to do as well as how to do it when I was little. A matter of fact, which I wouldn't even doubt or question at all.

Me: WAKE UP!

This time I managed to get us out. Me and Hitoshi woke up in my room, drenched in sweat and breathing quite heavily. This was not just an illusion, what we seen. I wish it was but it was reality.

???: ROOOOOOAAAAAAARRRRRRRR!!!!!!

As if this wasn't enough, a roar came from outside the door and then a loud thumb. Of course I froze up. Hitoshi wasn't better since he hugged me as we both stared to the door.
