"hm. Probably isnt a good idea to go back to sleep. Why not try to get your mind off of it and do something else?" He said seeing her fall to the side of her bed. "Its got to be better then thinking of that nightmare you had anyways."

"But I'm so tired." Nikki said. "If I don't sleep, then I won't be ready for a battle. I have to sleep..." she said as lack of sleep and her fitful tears taxed her energy. She tried closing her eyes, but she would only see Kiba again, or the chains, or...Levi. "Look at me, I'm hopeless, I can't even sleep." she said, her voice full of self pity. She was now in a battle against her eyes, trying to keep them open. Her beautiful furniture that used to fill her with warmth now loomed over her, creating frightening shadows on the walls. "Kouri...what am I going to do..."

"Then dont try to think of it. More of a hassel if you do, just try to think of something else instead that may help. Why not a memory that makes you happy? That should work as you just had a nightmare" Kourimori said

Nikki tried Kouri's advice. First she thought of Levi, but that brought back the nightmare, then her sister, but it just brought back more sadness as well. She quietly whimpered. "I'm sorry, I...I can't." She looked up at Kouri, her face wet with her tears. "The nightmare, it brought back so many buried wounds. Kiba...he killed Levi right in front of me!" she said a little too shrilly. She fell back down, utterly exhausted.

"well , we defintlly know that he's darkness itself if he did that infront of you." Kourimori said a bit angerly as he was running out of ideas to help Nikki. "That didnt work.... So why not try to do something else that keeps your mind occupied? Anything at all that would keep your mind from it."

Nikki thought long and hard. "You talking." she finally said. "Could you tell me a story? Or just talk about anything?" she knew that she sounded like a little kid, but at this point, she really didn't care. She looked back up at him, her tears now stopped, waiting for his answer.

"talk about anything huh? hmm im not much of a talker" He said thinking of something that he may be able to talk about. "Hm well, the only thing i can think of at this moment is the river that was at my world." He said wondering if Nikki saw any river's before. "It defintlly wasnt anything you can see often but it was the most clearest water you would ever see in your life. If you went into the river then there be tons of jewerls and gems at the bottom of it." He said with a grin. "that was the most favorite part, beside my little castle, to be at as there would be so many different kinds of gems and jewerls there that you could find some in a book."

Nikki got comfortable and closed her eyes. She pictured the river, the jewels. "It sounds pretty." she said, her eyes still closed. "We only had regular rivers at my home. Though there was a peculiar waterfall...but tell me more. What color were the jewels, were they like your crystals?" her voice became less shrill with her fear, and instead was now calm and even.

"All different kinds even the shapes were different then the others. Like ones would be a cirule or another one like a triangle with sharp edges." He said thinking of them "some were kind of like mine but doesnt look as good as it did in the river's water"

"Mmmmm" was all that Nikki said. Her mind was already drifting off to a deep sleep thanks to Kouri. Beneath her eyelids, jewels and crystals sparkled instead of the menacing glare of Kiba or Levi dead and broken. She seemed to go to the river that Kouri had described, and finally got her day at the beach as she played in the cool, clear water. Nikki was now in a deep sleep and she looked calm and serene; almost like an angel clad in black. Her hair pooled around her on the pillows, and her chest slowly rose and fell with each breath she took. If you hadn't known her, her many inner conflicts and turmoil, she would've looked like any other human would; instead of an agent of a dark organization.

kourimori smiled a bit as he saw that nikki was finally in a good deep sleep and left the room. Going to his own room to sleep or close to it as he was always filled with engery at night so it was a bit hard for him to push himself to sleep.

Nikki opened her eyes for a few minutes after Kouri left, but she was still half asleep. She turned over and gathered the blankets around her and she fell back to sleep. But not before she whispered. "Thank you...". She wished that he would have a peaceful night as well before her mind went back to the picturesque river and the gems and commanded her to sleep.
At her river, Nikki was joined by her sister and some people that she remembered were her friends long ago in that previous life. They enjoyed the bright, breezy day as the clouds lazily blew by. Shortly after, Levi joined the group, making her heart flutter as he embraced her again. But this time there was no gruesome end to this reunion. Nikki continued to dream in bliss, her mind suprisingly at ease for the moment.

Kourimori heard Nikki say thank you to him while he sat in his bed. He grinned to himself and layed down in the bed, looking at the ceiling once then falling alseep with surprising ease.

Day turned to dusk, and then night in Nikki's dream. Everyone was gone except her and Levi. The full moon in the sky gave a bluish, enchanting glow to everything. Levi took her hand and brought her out onto the river. But this time, instead of falling through the film of water, they somehow floated on top of it. Soft music floated about from an unknown source, and Levi led Nikki in a dance. After a while, they only swayed back and forth to the music. Nikki rested her head on his shoulder, hoping that it would never end.
Then Levi broke the silence "Nikki...". She looked up at him expectantly. "I'm so sorry Nikki. I've put you in danger." Nikki was now puzzled "Of course not Levi, you would never do that to me." He only shook his head. "I never intended it, but I wasn't able to tell you the most important thing about Kiba; something that every single Fallen should know...I was going to tell you that one day, after I came back from the mission but..." Nikki stopped his words with a gentle kiss. "It's not your fault, just tell me now." Levi sighed. "You must always be wary of Kiba, but at least in your own home you have some protections against him. However, in his castle, he knows all of your movements...and even your thoughts." Nikki said nothing for a long time, realizing what he meant. Kiba knew of her interest in the weilders of light. "Don't worry." She finally said. "I'll talk my way out of it, kneel for him and play the devoted servant. I'll be fine." Levi held her tighter. "I hope so. I don't want to see you in the afterlife for a long, long time, okay?" he said as he kissed the top of her head. "Don't worry, Lev, I promise I'll be careful." Nikki replied. They continued to slowly sway and dance, but both were silent so as not to break the enchantment.
OOC: Just to clarify, Levi came from the afterlife to warn Nikki in her subconsious while she slept. So he did warn her, but this is how her mind interpreted it. Meaning that the being of Levi that warned her didn't say or do any of the other stuff. Though I'm sure Nikki wished he would!

Kourimori suddenly woke up out of his sleep. Not knowing what was troubling him he walked out his room and into a room that was just filled with crystals. He didnt know what to do with them but let his hands move about on them putting crystal peice's together.
