(Are you all in the chamber or only I am in it, this making me confused)

---

(Still in the Central Core Chamber)

---

''Well, there's no death in this world, actually. The moment you die in the Dream World, you wake up in the real one, only to have a chance another night. I am a little less lucky with that, but I'm powerful enough to handle it.'' - Makai explains rather calmly this time. ''Anyway, let's go!'' - he flies off quickly into the chamber.

---

Angel then ran towards them and said "What's up? Oh, is something wrong?"

"The facility will explode in a few minutes, that's all" Raika drags them to the chamber.

---

"Oh goodie!" Angel then got dragged into the chamber.

"The chamber is safe that it won't explode?" She asks it waiting for the explosion.

---

"No. We only have to go fast enough. You can panic if you want. I like this moment of calmness." They've arrived in the chamber. "Caroline? Initiate the Chamber moving for the Relaxation and Device Chambers"

---

"I'm probally the fastest one here!" Angel exclaimed.

"You stay here. I'm going to the Device Chamber!" Raika went there.

---

"Dont explode!" Angel screamed after Raika.

"Both chambers will be moved!!!" Raika ran off.

---

Angel then stayed put, It was very hard, she kept tapping her leg.

''W-wait!'' - Makai followed Raika. ''Wait, what did you just do just now? Is the facility safe?'' - he asked while running.

---

"GET BACK HERE OLD MAN YOU GOING TO EXPLODE!" Angel screamed.

"The facility is not safe, but the chambers could be fast enough to escape the zone. Please go back! I have to do something." Raika still kept walking normal and calm.

"Anything?" Dei softly whispered to her companion.

In reply, Cliantha grimly shook her head. The forest seemed deserted of any normal creature, and when they did hear sounds, they were fast to disappear.

"This is definitely a dream. No forest in our world would ever be like this," Dei sighed, letting go of her bow.

As the bow free fell to the ground, it shimmered and vanished along with the quiver of arrows on Dei's back. Cliantha kept her hold onto hers, her warm brown eyes warily scanning their surroundings. "I don't know, Dei," She finally said. "The air...it smells so different. Like there is a desert nearby."

Dei's silver-gray eyes widened a fraction before she leaped stealthily to the right, hastily disappearing through a thicket of trees. Any normal person would have found it impossible to follow her and catch up, but Clia was anything but normal. Speeding up her pace, she wove through the trees, finally catching up with her friend. Both of them halted as they took in the sight before them.

The land right next to the forest looked like it had been a test field for several nuclear bombs. It was completely barren, and not a single plant in sight. Dei incredulously glanced back at the lush forest behind them, then shook her head angrily. "Even for a dream, this place was not naturally like this," She stated darkly.

Clia nodded, splaying her own hand and watching grain of dust rise into her palm, reforming into a small flower. She let the flower fall back to the ground, morosely watching it disintegrate as it did so. "Someone, or some people did this," She agreed bitterly.

Their times spent as Hunters of Artemis had made them grow respect for nature. Seeing a once beautiful forest like this was extremely painful for them. The forests and mountains in their world were their shelters, their homes. They had long since lived in the wilderness, both respecting it and harnessing it to their needs, never their wants. Nature was a gift to be utilized and respected, not obliterated.

The two girls watched the barren land solemnly for some time before Clia decided to do something about it. She twirled her left pinkie finger in the air steadily, churning the air. A velvet pouch of seeds dropped into her palm. Dei took one look at her and immediately knew what she was planning.

"Let us hope our magic has not been depleted by the elements of this dream world," Dei stated as she raised her hands, her palms facing outwards.

Storm clouds began to brew right overhead, flocking together like sheep. As Dei started to chant, they increased in number. "Lightning, thunder, rain, and earth. Join of power from a new baby's birth. Barren and forsaken land, bear fruit once more, and be not sand!"

Instantaneous effect. Rain suddenly came down in torrents, flooding the dead earth with water, washing the gritty sand away, and making the earth swell like a mother with a baby bump. As soon as this was all done (which was pretty much in a matter of an hour), the rain shut off like a faucet and the storm clouds dispersed, clearing the sky.

Dei sat down contentedly as Clia urged the wind to blow the assortment of seeds all over the place. Storm magic was powerful, but the most powerful spells - like the one Deianira just cast - enervated even the most skilled magic-users of their strength. Despite being descended from Zeus himself, Dei could still feel the weariness wash over her, the aftereffects of casting such a spell.

"Can you sense any other life form around and where they might be?" Dei questioned her friend once Clia had finished scattering the seeds.

Clia prodded a newly grown sprout with the toe of her boot. Magic worked wonders with nature, since nature was a magic of its own caliber. "Underground and the forest. I'm good with underground," Clia muttered lamely.

Despite their long friendship (roughly four millennium), Dei still had no clue on Cliantha's lineage. As a daughter of Hermes, she was good with roads, even underground. Combined with her vast knowledge of magic, it had become almost another sense to detect roads and passageways and such. Detecting life forms, however, came from Talia's teachings.

"Hm..." Dei's silvery orbs gazed deeply at the ground beneath her feet. "We could try to use a few earth spells, but in all honesty, this ground isn't completely dirt. Can you hear it?"

Both fell silent as Cliantha strained to hear what Dei was talking about. Then, she heard it - a faint buzzing.

"Metal," Both girls immediately realized.

Both of them had lived long enough to see metal evolve through the ages. Their sharp senses gained from their times as Hunters enabled them to discern sounds that a normal human couldn't. The two girls locked eyes, coming to agreement silently.

Achi as dragged in the chamber waits to the chambers move (or escape the facility) calmily.

---

She arrived: "Okay... oh good, it's back online." Raika pulled a few switches and... the chambers start moving.

{OOC; Thanks for reminding us Omnia.}

Angel then couldn't hold her active energy any longer, she then zipped around the lab and came back towards the chamber, she then said "I'm back!" she then said "I might as well get superspeed if I keep running like this!" She then zipped around the lab again and ran towards the chamber. "I'm back again!" she screamed.
