~ Journal One ~ Maybe it was due to my lack of sleep. Maybe it was due to the fact that I was once again overworking my muse. Whatever the case may be, I'm sure my life will hardly be the same again; because last night, I had a visitor. Not just any visitor, but something unearthly.
Oh, I thought, it was just our ghost being a little noisy. That's what my sister and I blame the strange things that happen in our house. It was just the ghost again. Now whether there really is a ghost in our house, I don't know. But I know I wasn't imagining what I heard. Flashback It was storming outside. Almost midnight, but she had to get this done. This was the only time to get her story started. A teenage girl sat at her desk. She had long dark hair and dark eyes and she was fashioning her pink pajamas with chickens all over. She'd put off her story long enough. It was time to write.
She had a small room, but it was cozy. Well, more or less since the walls had been painted a bright aqua color and the ceiling was a lime green. Random artworks of hers were hung on the wall via her parents. Several stuffed animals where covering bookshelves and her bed. She'd never grown out of them even though she knew she was well overage for having them. The rest of her bookshelves were actually full with books. Reading was one of her favorite things to do. Well, reading and drawing that is. She had several sketchbooks around her room; none of them even half full though. The pages that were full, though, were of characters for her stories that she never finishes. But that's okay; she was fine with keeping her thoughts to herself.
She didn't know how long she had dosed off. The power had gone out and the clock was flashing twelve o'clock. She grumbled at herself for falling asleep. Looking down at her paper, she noticed that there were only two and a half sentences written. Not a very good start. Sitting up, she reached for her pencil. Pencil? Where did it go? Oh, she must have pushed it off her desk when she fell asleep.
Looking under her desk, she spotted it, and went down to get it. Then she heard it; it was almost like a cooing sound. There it was, hovering a little above the desk, a small turquoise green wisp-like creature. The girl let out a small gasp before falling over and off of her bench, aka a sad excuse for a chair. What was it?

~ Thyme's Thoughts ~
Thyme floated around, How in Nowhere was I supposed to know that I would be woken up so soon. Well, I think it's soon. I can't remember when I was forgotten. He paused, thinking a bit. My owner is so strange. One second she was screaming about an aqua colored ghost, the next about how cute it was, then I'm almost certain that she was talking to people that lived in her head. What a weirdo! Thyme glided around in a circle before stopping above Guine's desk. Well, I hope this girl keeps on dreaming. She's my only hope. If she should forget, or give up, well, I wouldn't be in the best of fixes. So I won't complain about her too much.

Well, Thyme is being hyper, again. Actually he's always hyper. I don't know why though. I only get hyper if I've had lots of sugar. Mmmm, sugar. Anyway! Aww, it makes me want to sing! Oh what a beautiful mornin'! Oh what a beautiful day!... Of course now it leaves me to hide somewhere... What? My singing isnt that bad! Okay! I'll stop!
And of course after I stop, he comes out of hiding. Sheesh, fine! I won't sing! Oy! Well, I'm growing attached to him anyway. He's so cute! And I've found out that he is in fact a 'Dream'. How do I know? Again, I don't, but it seems almost obvious. Maybe I'll be able to learn more about him and where he came from as time goes on. Heh, time and Thyme. I can't wait until I get to use all of my corny puns while talking about him! Oh! Here's one! See? Only time will tell! Except he doesn't seem to talk! Ha ha!
Eh? I think he's annoyed with me...

~Thyme's Thoughts ~
Thyme once again floated around, Who does she think she is? Enough with the bad jokes! Really, it's bad enough that she named me after a plant! He paused to ponder, Wait, I think it's an herb or something like that. But still! Thyme moved around over a stuffed animal on the desk. Okay, so it's not that bad. Like I said before, I'm just glad to have been recognized again. But I wish she wouldn't be so hyper! I mean, half the time she's running around yapping about stuff that doesn't matter. Anyway, perhaps in time we'll end up liking each other. Wha? Nuu! I'm using bad puns too! Arugh!

~ Journal 3 ~ Oh my! My little Thyme grew! He's so adorable! He's still as hyper as ever though. I was sure surprized to find him grown! Guine's Flashback Guine sat up on her bed. Thyme had been quiet for a bit and she was worried if he was alright. "Thyme? Where are you?" she got up to check his bed; one of the teddy bears on the bookshelf.
But it wasn't her little whispy Thyme! It was something different! "Ahh! What did you do with Thyme?!?" She stepped back, pointing at the sleeping dream. "Hmm? What are you yelling about?" the small, turquoise, cat-like creature asked. He sounded a bit annoyed with all the noise. He then yawned and curled up into a more comfortable possition. "I'm the Thyme you're looking for. Of course it would be nice to sleep once in a while." She blinked, "But... Wait... You talk?!? How come you never said anything before!" Well, this was a bit odd. She wasn't expecting for him to grow into something like that. Giving up on trying to get some rest, Thyme streached and yawned again. "Have you ever tried talking to me before?" What? Did she expect him to tell her everything?"Oh, well you're still adorable!" she exclaimed, not noticing Thyme's deep sigh and eye roll.

~ Thyme's Thoughts ~ Thyme blinked as he floated over his owner's newest journal entry. What the...? Where'd that come from? Crazy girl and her wacky imagination... It was more like... More Accurate Flashback Guine sat up on her bed. Thyme had been quiet for a bit and she was worried if he was alright. "Thyme? Where are you?" she got up to check his bed; one of the teddy bears on the bookshelf.
But it wasn't her little whispy Thyme! It was something different! "Ahh! What did you do with Thyme?!?" She stepped back, pointing at the sleeping dream.The small, turquoise, cat-like creature opened his eyes and blinked at the girl. Must she make so much noise? He then yawned and curled up into a more comfortable possition. Go away, I'm trying to sleep... Of course no sound came from him. Just an evil (yet still very cute) glare. She blinked, "Oh, are you tired? Am I annoying you? Do you want a grape? Do you eat grapes?" she asked, shoving a couple purple grapes towards him. What the...? he pulled away from the grapes that were almost as big as he was. He raised an eyebrow at her, Where in Nowhere did those come from? And how old are they?!? What were grapes doing in her room anyway? Better yet, why would she even imagine that he wanted any?! "Oh, well you're still adorable!" she exclaimed after a minute of him not eating the grapes. Then she took the grapes and ate them herself.

Okay, so he can't talk. Hey, one can dream, can't they? Heh, I'm coming up with so many bad puns lately! It's fun! Maybe he'll learn to repeat things like a parrot! Yeah! Hey, Thyme? Can you say, "I have the loveliest owner in the world?" Come on! ... Eh? I don't think he's gonna be talking for a while. And definatly not with that additude of his! My goodness! He just looked at me as if I asked him to jump off a building!
Anyway, he's keeping to himself more. Before, he'd explore everywhere! And he's usually asleep. But that's okay! Hmm... I wonder if he'll grow some more. Heh! I don't mind though! I love him just the way he is! heart

~ Journal 5 ~
Oh my! Thyme grew again! He's so curious now, it's kind of strange. He's been poking his little nose into almost everything he can find; from cracks under doors, to hiding in pots! I'll have to keep a good eye on him now.
Oh! And it seems as though he's trying to talk some! Yay! Of course the only thing I've actually heard him say was 'No!' and 'Off!' And it seems as though he learns more words when I hug him! That's how her learned the words he already knows!
But something even stranger happened! Another Dream arrived! He's so adorable. And this one is all grown and can speak quite well! I'm so happy, now I know that it is possible for them to speak! No more imagining it!
This little guy is all red and white with gold eyes. He's very pretty! I've named him Uva Ursi for his colors. Yep, it's another herb! It's supposedly used for physic workings. He makes quite the older brother, too. Although I'm not sure that Thyme is taking to him very well. I think he might be jealous. I can't understand why!

~Thyme's Thoughts ~ Thyme hissed to himself, I don't know if I should trust this guy. He's too much of a kiss up. I bet he has alterior motives too! The Meeting The turquoise dream was minding his own business. He was just resting on top of his owner's bookshelf, wondering if he should pounce her or not when suddenly- Ahhh! he was pushed off and landed on the girl's head, below. "Eh? What happened? Who's your friend?" Guine scooped the little dream off her head to hold him in her hands. Friend? What are you talking about you crazy girl? Thyme looked up and saw what made him twitch."My goodness! You should be more careful! You might get hurt, jumping off heights like that!" The red and white Aware dream looked over the edge of the bookcase.

~ Uva Ursi's Thoughts ~ Uva Ursi swished his tail around, That little one sure is fisty. He nearly chewed my head off for saving his life! Honestly, some Dreams do not know how to react accordingly to situations! Uva Ursi's Version Having just been pulled out of Nowhere via some strange force, the golden eyed, red and white Dream viewed his new surroundings. It appeared to be a room of some sort.
Suddenly, he spotted a smaller Dream lurking high on a shelf. But that wasn't the end! No, the little Dream started to fall! So what else would have been done but for the older Dream to swoop down and catch the poor little one! After that, he gently let him down on the girl's head before circling back up to the shelf to make sure it wasn't going to be anymore danger."Eh? What happened? Who's your friend?" Guine scooped the little dream off her head to hold him in her hands. Friend? What are you talking about you crazy girl? Thyme looked up and saw what made him twitch. "My goodness! You should be more careful! You might get hurt, jumping off heights like that!" The red and white Aware dream looked over the edge of the bookcase. Then so the girl wouldn't hear, I just saved your life, dear child!Of course!, tears came to the little dream's eyes as he thanked the older one, Oh! Thank you so much! I owe my life and my well being to you, oh noble one!

~ Thyme Gets A Gift ~
The newly aware Dream curled up against his teddy bear. The girl was obsessing over how wonderful he was looking and Uva Ursi was making a racket about how she was right. Right now, all Thyme wanted was a little peace and quiet. He closed his green eyes and let out a small yawn preparing to drift asleep. But before he was able to do so, something unpleasant came his way.
"Thymie? Why are you sleeping now? Do you not want to explore? Do you not want to meet other Dreams?" Uva Ursi poked his head down from the top of the bookshelf so that he was now upside down. He didn't understand why the little Dream was always so tired. "You know, that little Laasya female seemed nice! You should talk to her!"
Thyme twitched as he realized that he wouldn't get very much sleep with the annoying older dream around. "Why don't you kiss up to Guine again?" he hissed lightly. He didn't like being mean, it just came natural to him when Uva Ursi was around.
"Oooh! You're so mean, Thymie! Besides, Guine's at school. I think that's what she called it," Uva Ursi nodded at his genus. Maybe he should find some females for Thyme to meet! That way, he wouldn't be so crabby all the time. Of course, he could just find nice females for himself. Well, it wasn't as though he had any problems with getting females to talk to him, since he was so handsome and all.
But, he thought against it. Just as he opened his mouth to say something about that to Thyme, a sudden epiphany hit him. "Thyme? Have you been to Nowhere recently?" he asked, in a sort of mysterious way, as if he knew something important but wasn't going to tell.
"No, why?" Thyme looked up at the golden eyed Dream, "I though the gates were locked." What was Uva getting at? And why was it important? Wasn't Nowhere supposed to be full of Nightmares? "Hey, what do you mean?" he looked up at Uva Ursi. But the red and white Dream was nowhere to be seen! Suddenly, Uva appeared out of thin air next to him with something in his paws. "ARUGH!" Thyme toppled over the leg of the bear in surprise, "Don't do that!!" he clenched a paw over his chest, breathing heavily.
"Sorry," Uva Ursi said quickly before tossing what was in his paws over to the turquoise green dream, "You may need this for later. Apparently a Yudou of some sort went and opened the gates. I was just there and saw it for myself. The gates of Nowhere are open again." Uva Ursi gave a short pose to show off his genius.
Thyme blinked at what looked like a scroll of some type. "What's this?" he asked, blinking at it again.
Uva Ursi smiled mysteriously, "That, my friend, you will have to find out for yourself!"

~ Character Role Play ~
Thyme streached and peered down from the top of the fan in Guine's room. He blinked, thinking how odd it was for the room to be so quiet. (aka: Uva Ursi was taking a nap) The quiet didn't bother him, not at all. Quiet was nice, quiet was good. Being the anti-soial Dream he was, he could probably live happily if never to hear a word.
He wasn't always like that though. When he was younger, he would explore everything, get into everything, and almost seemed to crave attention. But personalities change over time. No pun, thank you. Maybe he was spoiled? Maybe he should try being more social sometimes. Hmm... Perhaps later... Right now, sleep seemed nice.

"THYME!" Uva Ursi screamed into Thyme's ear, causing the poor napping Dream to wake with a start and topple off of the fan and onto the bed.
"ARUGH!" Thyme cried as he fell through the air, "What was that for?!?" he asked with annoyance, clasping a paw over his heart. Sheesh! All he wanted was to take a nap! gonk
Uva gave the younger Dream a very odd smile from on top of the fan, as if he knew something. "I'm bored, come on, let's go explore someplace fun." Heh heh, of course the little curious Dream would love to go with the wonderful Uva Ursi. This is the prefect chance to introduce the young Dream to Nowhere.
"NO!" Thyme glared up at Uva as he also toppled off of the fan. "I'm not going anywhere you want me to go..." Yeah, like he wanted to go anywhere with that loud mouth.
Uva rubbed his head and whined, "Awww, come on, Thymie! Please???" Uva pouted some more, "You are so not fun!" Drat, Uva was positive that Thyme would agree to go with him. "Please, oh please, oh please???" he whined some more.
Thyme twitched, "No, Ursi. I said no and I mean no. Now go away!" What was he getting at anyway? Annoying brat...
Uva Ursi sighed and looked longfully at Thyme. (Who was kinda weirded out with Uva's expression.) "You have left me no choise... Besides... I'm bored!!!" he whined for the last time.
This is where they go and find Nowhere. -Continued in Nowhere-

~ Enter Nightshade ~
A pair of indigo eyes narrowed as the other two Dreams went off. Where did they think they were going? A black coat Dream looked lazily down from the girl's shelf. She was new around here and hadn't met the two guys yet.
Her name, Nightshade.

~ Maybe a Bear Got Them ~
Yawning, Nightshade looked around the Dreamless room. The two guys were still wandering around somewhere. Just then, the door opened. The Dream's eyes narrowed as a girl with long black hair, dark eyes, and light skin walked in. The human was back... She was wearing a white tube top along with a pain of black shorts and thigh high boots in an equal shade of black. She was carrying a winged staff and had a black bag with her.
"Hey, Nightshade!" the girl greeted, setting down her bag and staff before going over to a fluffy chair and sitting down. She blinked and looked around the room. "Where's Thyme and Uva Ursi?" she asked as Nightshade jumped onto her shoulder.
"Maybe they're lost," Nightshade started, rolling her eyes.
"Maybe a bear got them?" the girl, aka Guine, finished with a sweatdrop, eyeing her Dream, "You got that from me?"
"No", the black, heart speckled Dream said, dripping with sarcasm. This left her human confused and blinking for a minute. Nightshade sighed, "They were gone before I got here."
"Oh... Right..."
