It was quiet... A still night.

Peaceful, silent....

...

"AAAAAAAHH!!"

Riley almost fell out of bed at the scream, and leaped down off the bed. "That sounded like Jay..." Zane shot out of bed. "Where's his room?" She asked, tugging on her ninja outfit and mask. "Right next to us..." He replied slowly, as the door to their room slowly opened...

Zane grabbed his ninja stars and Riley grabbed a broom. "Steady.. It could be friendly..." Zane warned. And surely.. It was. Two violet eyes shone in the darkness of the black room.

"Wha.. Those eyes.. They couldn't only belong to--"

"Get back!" Zane hollered and pulled Riley back, a sai missing her by an inch. "Whoa.." Riley stared at it, stuck in the wall. "Look out!" She yelped and pushed the two of them down as another sai rushed by.

The two were in.. An awkward position. Riley on top of Zane. "Ah! Sorry Zane!" Riley squeaked and fell back onto the floor, being towered over by the figure. "Oh.. Hello." Riley replied cooly. The figure giggled, yanking back their hood to reveal short, bobbed, purple hair.

"Luna, you know better." She scolded. Luna giggled and grabbed her sais from the wall. "Sorry, I couldn't resist!" She helped up Zane and her friend. "Is this your last friend?" He asked tilting his head. "Yeah.. This is Luna. The dream demon." Riley introduced.

"Heheh.. Jay Walker's dreams are adorable..." Luna squealed and twirled. "So innocent! Puppies and kittens everywhere! It was delicious!"

Zane stared for a moment. ".. Delicious?" He blanked out. "Dream demons eat dreams.. That's why Jade said; Don't let her haunt your dreams." Riley replied and rolled her eyes. "Where's Jay now?" She asked her purple haired friend.

"He's huddled in the corner of his room, utterly terrified." Luna replied with a joy-filled voice. "Yep. I'm sure you two will get along just fine.." Riley chuckled a bit. "Oh right! I better let you sleep, Training tomorrow!" Luna giggled and hopped out of the room.

"Wait, Ms Luna.. How did you..?" Zane started. "It's all you were dreaming about Zane!... And a lot of Riley. Wonder why.. OOH! Jay's coming to!" Luna yelped happily and ran into Jay's room.

"What did she--"

"Nothing!" Zane replied quickly. "She.. Said.. Nothing of importance. Let's get back to bed..." He looked away bashfully and sat back on his bed. "Goodnight Riley." He curled up in his blankets, in a small ball.

"Good... Night.." Riley replied slowly, slightly confused, and leaped back into her own bed.
