Welcome to Gaia! ::

Violet's turned to look at Vanessa, her head at an angle that would have been impossible had she been human. She was silent for a moment befoe she began to laugh, her grin and eyes making her look insane.
"Why would i want to kill you? Your nothing to me. Besides, i don't work that way, you can't fight a thought," she replied, still laughing a little. Shaking her head to get a grip on herself she added,
"Oh theres someone here all right, they just don't want to be seen...probably an angel who wants to protect you from bad old me,"
Violet returned to looking around, not looking at Vanessa she spoke again.
"Who are you anyway? throwing yourself into someones conversation's rude you know,"

"I..I'm Vanessa. I had no one to talk to... I thought you were at least.... Human." Vanessa backed away a little from the un-humanlike character. She knew that she was getting herself in trouble, but she wasn't about to back down.
"And who do you think you are excluding me from a conversation? No one... No one excludes Vanessa."

Vanessa looked aat the other-wordly creature.
"Who are you? and where are you from?"
Vanessa looked at the black water. Suddenly, a huge wave came crashing onto the jagged rocks along the shorline. A large, metal box had washed up on shore. Vanessa went over to look at the monstrous object. She touched the object, and although it looked hard, it was suprisingly very soft. All of a sudden, a green light shown, and everyone on the beach were sucked into the box. They appeared in a black room that looked never ending.
'Where... Where are we?"

Vanessa suppressed a laugh.
"Popstar?" She said smiling. She was clearly amused with the name of the planet.
"Well uh I'm Vanessa. I'm from... Well, here. But I've been to other planets. I've battled demons with my bare hands. I've brough back plenty of stuff from the places I've been. Here. I have so much stuff that I need to get rid of some of it." Vanessa shoved her hand into her pocket. When she pulled her hand out, there was a flat rock in it. It looked ordinary, but after a few moments it began to glow a very bright light. You could see a scene in it. The scene showed a boy as a little kid. He was on the planet Popstar, running around in a giant hole.
"I suppose that's you." Vanessa said, smiling. This was the first time Vanessa ever smiled. Vanessa handed the rock to Dream, and the scene faded out of sight, and the rock returned to it's normal greyish color.

Dream continued to converse with Vanessa. "Well, if you don't know about Popstar, it's a planet known for Star Warriors. Also home of the Fountain of Dreams, which once held the Star Rod. Now I hold it." He smiled. "No, that's not me, but I did know him. He's still in training, I imagine." He held the rock in his hand, feeling its power. It was definately not from Popstar, but somewhere nearby. He gave it back to Vanessa. "You can keep it. The only things I need from other planets are my memories of them."

He blinked. "That was... unexpected... I suppose I could bring you there sometime. Shouldn't be too difficult." He took out his Star Rod, the star at the top illuminating the area much more efficiantly than his orb had. "Is there any time you wish to go?"

I knew there was a reason i didn't like humans," Violet muttered under her breath. With a sigh that whistled through her grinning teeth she turned a full circle, looking at the darkness curiously, trying to judge how deep it went. Experimentaly she held out her hand, pressing against the unknown. When Vanessa pointed out the door she went toward it, hand outstreched to open it. .
