*I can't help myself....*

Leslie~

Ray's smile lit an ember in my heart and his words made the fire even bigger. My head swirled at the realization that this was the first time someone had really said it. Really meant it. It seemed as if it was obvious, that Ray loved me but how could someone believe that without this feeling? A smile flew across my face and I felt my eyes grow into huge circles.

I assumed the feeling was love or atleast as close I'm going to get to it. I also assumed Ray's words were true. They have to be true don't they? I whisked the thought away as love consumed me. I flung my arms around Ray's neck and pressed my lips softly to his. I held him tight and let my thoughts disappear into oblivion.

*I was going to finish this up and have Leslie feel guilty and go running to Vincent but I'm not sure how Ray would react...*

Ray

For what seemed to be an eternity they remained that way. She had surprised Ray, he hadn't expected this at all, but he welcomed it with open arms. Finally, after so much time spent wishing that she would live him and not Vincent, it seemed that she did.

But then, Leslie broke the kiss. Her arms let go of him, and she pulled away, a guilty look on her face. Great. Now what?

"Ray..." she murmured, "I'm sorry. I shouldn't have done that." Leslie turned and ran out of the room. Ray heard her footsteps on the stairs, then the front door swung open and slammed shut. He sat there for only a few more indecisive seconds. What am I doing? She finally let's herself feel something for me, and I just let her go again?

Ray teleported himself next to Leslie, matching her step for step in her run back to her side of Somnium. "So," he said with a smile, "We're going to see Vincent now?"

Leslie~

"There's no we." I whispered, "I'm going to talk to Vincent myself." I swallowed hard, and then transported myself in Vincent's castle. I was in a hall and a guard was walking towards me.

"I need to speak to the King." I said, mentally crossing my fingers that he would find Vincent for me.

The guard looked me over and then pointed down the hallway, "He's in there. Last room on the right."

I smiled and then hurried down the hall. Vincent was sitting in a chair, with golden ribbon around it. I walked over to him, "Vincent, I'm so sorry. We need to talk."

Thanks Dream, I'm just going to try and jump in. (:

Becca

I sat beneath the cherry tree. I hadn't talked to Joshua in a while. A very long while. I missed him. He probably wanted nothing to do with me. I sighed and tilted my face up to the rain. It seemed like yesterday that Joshua and I watched the tiny little blossoms fall to the ground.

Rain stung my face, legs and torso. I welcomed it. It matched my mood. Dreary and vague. I must have been quite a site. I smiled. I loved the rain. It was more beautiful than any beach sunset. Even if others didn't see it.

My silver hair was darkened by the rain and felt a ton heavier. It now reached my hips. I leaned against the tree. I was content to be alone. I thrived in it. Yet I would give up the comforts of being alone to talk to Joshua. I wanted to talk to him.

I'm going to post again because I really don't want this to die. I just came back!!! (: so here goes...

Becca

I dove into a nightmare. This one was fresh. Someone had just created it. I remembered what Vincent had told me. That if I disturbed another one of his nightmares that he would take my powers. I grit my teeth. Little did he know that i wasn't going down without a fight.

"Help!" A girl cried. I ran in her direction, transforming myself into the girls best friend. "Help!"

"Madison!" I called, dashing to her side. An older woman lay draped in the girls lap. The woman had blood trickling from her nose and a small gash in her head.

"Madison what happened?" I asked. She gasped for breath through her sobs.

"It was...a truck...didn't stop." That was all I needed to know. I whipped out a cell phone and called the ambulance telling them where to find us.

"Oh Jenson," she gasped her head leaning on my shoulders. I wrapped my arms around her, protectively. Poor girl, this was a horrible nightmare. This was cruel! Cruel and heartless. My head throbbed with pent up anger. whoever did this was inhuman. A savage. Who could create a nightmare where the girl watched her mother get hit by a car? It made me sick.

"Jenson listen!" Madison cried. I heard the distant sound of sirens. I smiled. Things were already looking up for her.

Madison and I helped her still unconscious mother, each of us holding up one of her shoulders. The medics screeched to the side walk and placed the woman in a stretcher.

"Maddie?" The woman asked. "Where's my daughter?" Her voice was weak but she was still alive. Madison threw herself at her mother, crying. This was all I needed to see. I started to leave the dream when someone tapped me on my shoulder. I turned and gasped. The person standing before me wasn't Madison.

<<Anyone can jump in (: >>

*NO! don't die! Billy, you can have Ray transport himself to Vincent's castle since I have a feeling Incognito might not post for awhile.*

Sorry I havent been on in awhile. Projects and stuff and I dont want this to die either XP. I'll claim this spot for a post and randomly jump in and I'll also start seeing if new people would like to join in. For the next three days though I want people to say if they're still in this or not. If not I'm killing their characters off and letting more people in.

**I'm still in this, sorry I didn't post JC, I couldn't really think of what to do except for more of the same Ray/Leslie cycle**

*I'm in however I may be leaving YWS soon (whatever that means). No problem Billy....If I come up with anything, I'll edit my post.*

I'm still in (:

Me too, ya'll btw, where's Incog?

**I'm still in i may create a plot between my two characters because delilah is kinda unpopular **

I'm also thinking of creating a new female character! *le gasp!*

But yeah, so I'm glad to see there are people still in it. I'm also going to see if people will continue on and... JC DON'T LEAVE!!! I'll miss you :'(

So let's get this up and started .

Hey everybody!

Ima here JC, so if you could recap why you are talking to Vincent... that would be great.
Man I am so lost.

Okie dokie.

Leslie is trying to figure out who "really loves her" because a girl in her own nightmare told her to . Is it Ray or Vincent? Ray says he loves her and they kissed. Leslie now feels guilty and is now going to see Vincent to tell him what she did and if he loves her.

If that makes any sense of course....that was all planned in around a 30sec moment. xD
