Jason and Dawn's date/dare. AWWWWW.

Dawn was falling, falling into pitch black. When she opened her eyes, she was extremely confused. She looked around. She was on a small playground, and the sky was darkening, half from the time, half from the dark gray storm clouds in the sky, blocking the sun.

Dawn, five and a half years old, was swinging high in the swing. Then, suddenly, just as the first drop hit her forearm, something pushed her back, and she flew into the air, and landed, her arm breaking in the impact on the blacktop.

She let out a cry of pain. She rolled over, tears springing to her eyes, and saw a tall boy, about ten years old, with cruel eyes and a face puckered with hate.

"It hurts, huh?" the boy sneered.

"Bobby!" Dawn cried. "Why'd you do that?"

It was her first foster brother, Bobby.

"I did it, brat, because I want you gone. Away. Do you know how it feels to just be the only kid in the place, adored by your parents, when suddenly a stupid, bratty girl, who I've never met in my life, moves into my house, plays with my friends, goes to my school? It hurts too."

Dawn winced away from her "brother"'s words. "That's not my fault. I don't want to be hear!"

She still missed her parents. It had been only five months since she'd been separated, and it hurt worse than her broken arm.

"It is your fault. Now . . ." The boy, Bobby, smiled evilly. He walked over, and kicked Dawn in the side, breaking a rib. She screamed.

"When the social workers hear about how you got beat up by some kids on the playground, they'll be sure to take you away. And you aren't gonna say nothing about how I was hear, right?"

Dawn grimaced, and faded into blackness . . .

Meanwhile . . .

Phoebe realized what was happening. She snapped her fingers, making the bubble disappear.

Nightmare fell to the floor, and Dawn's nightmare cleared away. She wasn't injured at all, it was just a mind trick.

L-Fang grabbed her shoulder, throwing her-- by accident-- out the window. Once she was out, you couldn't see her.

L-Fang peaked her head out, only to be pulled out. It appeared Nightmare had been clinging to the wall, and grabbed L-Fang's shoulder. She clung to L-Fang's back as they fell into the ground.

Dawn blinked. Her arm felt fine. She felt fine. What happened?

Phoebe ran over. "Are you okay?" She asked, the black fading from her eyes, her voice going back to normal.

Dawn nodded. They both ran to the window, to watch the fight.

Nightmare jumped off L-Fang, then L-Fang fell onto her back. For a few moments L-Fang didn't move, until her fist twitched. Nightmare stood a few feet behind her. L-Fang waited for something to come crashing down on her head, but she didn't feel anything.

Nightmare muttered a few words, moving her hands in front of her as if in hand signals. Then, she groaned in pain, her eyes closed, and she fell to her side.

L-Fang stood, with her back to the house to look at Nightmare. What sort of spell made you keel over? A bad one, that's for sure.

Inside, Jason, lying on the floor blinked his eyes open. They weren't full of pain, but blood lust. He stood, seeming to have the same slightly bent over posture of Nightmare. He ran at Dawn, then lept and sank claws that seemed to have come out of nowhere into her shoulders, then jumped out the window as if he was playing leapfrog. As L-Fang turned her head, his blood-soaked fist punched her cheek, and she went flying into the ground.

Shakka, who couldn't stop him because this had been in a matter of seconds, blinked. He looked outside, the first thing he noticed about Jason being his new charcoal eyes and the claws coming from the tips of his fingers. And the way his tail swished slowly back and forth, being so completely unwolflike.

Dawn screamed, and toppled out of the window.

"DAWN!!!" Phoebe screamed.

Phoebe flicked her wrist, and Dawn slowed down, and landed with very minimum force.

Nightmare's body immediately leapt to their feet, with new unnaturally royal blue eyes. Jason realized, that he hadn't grown shorter, but Nightmare had switched bodies with him.

(When I say Jason now, I mean Nightmare's body. XD Same with Nightmare.)

Jason felt drained of his magic, for he knew that Nightmare was hardly skilled in anything. But this made him remember that his body was, and that was what Nightmare wanted.

He hadn't realized what she had been planning until she started muttering a very dark and illegal spell that he had only used once before. Shakka and L-Fang saw at the same time.

"Oh no."

"Oh no."

"Oh no."

"OH YEAH!!!"

The Kool Aid Man stood awkwardly as everyone stared at him. He slowly walked away, and the roleplay continued.

Nightmare murmured something in Forignese, and a small blue oval appeared out of thin air. It wasn't hard to tell it took a lot of effort, and would probably hurt in the morning, but it wasn't her body anyways. And she knew this would be worth it, for Jason wasn't going to let her touch Dawn.

Out of the royal blue portal, two charcoal ears poked out, then a muzzle, then a whole head. The most noticable thing about it was the eyes. Black, and pure violet pupils. A small point of purple was below the eye.

And then a cat walked out. Her figure was lean, with smooth charcoal fur. She didn't appear anything special until shady black wings unfolded from her back, and the scent of fresh scarlet blood rose from her paws.

She looked like this:

Spoiler:

(Quick sketch. XD)

As she smoothly walked out, with her eyes fixed ahead of her, it looked as though everything was in slow motion (including her) and this music played:


(Just the start of it, before the actual lyrics start.)

L-Fang forgot to breathe for a minute, though she didn't really have to considering she was a Vampire. It was obvious that the blood wasn't always a part of the cat's daily attire.

Normally, there would have been a hug from Nightmare, but all she really cared about at the moment was killing Dawn. And this cat would help.

"Hello, dear." Said the cat.

"Sheba." Jason breathed. He wasn't looking forward to the fight that was likely to break out with her here.

((YES new character. I made her up while I was camping. SHE DA BOMB. XD))

((OMG WELCOME PARTY AT ERIKA'S HOUSE AFTER THIS!!!!

"WHAT?!"

Oh, cool it, I was just kidding! XD))

Dawn had bloody rakes along her back, but luckily they were shallow cuts.

She looked up fearfully as she saw Sheba.

Phoebe paled. "We need backup," she muttered. "Spike! Go get all the BGs you can gather up."

Spike snarled. "BUT WHAT ABOUT DAWN?!?!?!?!" He was livid.

"Just do it, Spike!!"

Spike spared her one last mutinous look, and a fierce growl in Nightmare's direction, then leaped from the window, and bounded in the opposite direction.

Phoebe closed her eyes. "VENNA!"

"You rang?"

Venna was suddenly sitting on the roof, just above Phoebe's head, swinging her legs and nearly breaking Phoebe's nose. She'd teleported.

"We need your help!"

Venna made a face. "I can see that. But I can only grant wishes. And as you are now, you aren't vengeful. So, I can't grant your wish. And Dawn is too kind to feel vengeful."

"But you're pretty strong in your demon form!"

"Not like Super-Jessica, wherever the dumb blonde is. Probably at the mall or at the salon or some ditzy place like that. But, true, I am stronger in the form of a demon."

She grinned, then morphed to her vengeance demon form:

Spoiler:

((she doesn't look anything like the girl in the picture, except the skin.))

She leapt agiley down from the roof, landing on her feet, her knees bent.

"Hey, Dawn. I'm here! Let's party!"

((LOLZ))

L-Fang scented the blood on Sheba's paws, and the feline seemed to notice, she turned her head towards L-Fang.

"Oh, I paid a visit to Nadae. Hope you don't mind."

L-Fang thought of her own Demon:

Spoiler:

She looked at Sheba in horror. "How... dare..." Her eyes were full of fury now. She lept at Sheba, but Sheba just jumped into the air, then socked L-Fang in the back of her head with her foot. A small dark purple static came off Sheba's foot, and L-Fang fell over.

"Oh. Crap." Said Shakka, jumping down from the house. He looked at Dawn, Phoebe, and Venna. "She stuns people."

Sheba flew down, one wing crashed into L-Fang's neck, but instead of leaving a bruise there was a large bloody gash in her neck. Nightmare grinned.

"Nice to see you again." Said Nightmare.

Bee looked at the blood on Sheba's paws and signed. "Gain one character, and then they kill another one."

Sheba looked at Venna. "Just because you made yourself look like an old lady doesn't mean you can kill me. I'm back, and I'm staying."

Venna pouted. Then, she brightened and smiled.

"Hey, don't mock the demon form. It's very bad etiquitte in the Underworld. And, your back. Big whoop. And you stun people - dangerous power, deadly. But I could the same about Kiwi when she eats egg salad - I mean, have you smelled her farts? Ugh."

She thought. "Whoops, got off topic there. But, anyways, I don't care who you are, what you do, why you're here. But, I do know that you aren't killing Dawn. Not if I can help it."

((The weirdest thing is, for most of my BGs, if Nightmare was trying to kill them, the others would leave them to die. Except for Dawn. I wonder why they all like her so much?))

"Kill Dawn?" Said Sheba. "I'm not going to kill Dawn. Nightmare is. No, I'm going to kill everyone else. Starting with..."

She looked around. "Jason."

With that, Nightmare switched bodies with Jason again. Normally Nightmare would have stopped Sheba, but she felt nothing.

Nightmare lept for Dawn, but landed behind her. In the moment that everyone looked at Nightmare, Jason's eyes were blank, and he fell forward. There was a knife in his back and a cat floating in the air behind him.

"Well that was easy. Who's next?"

"Jason!" Dawn gasped. She ran and knelt beside him, and wrenched the knife out of his back. The rolled him over, and made it so he was lying face up.

Venna snarled a very gutteral snarl.

Phoebe blinked down to the ground.

"So, Sheba, just wondering, if you're going to kill me and everyone else . . . you think that will do much? Kiwi - and probably all the other Owners - will probably just be really pissed off. Or, more likely, just really sad. They'll just bring us all back to life - you know Kiwi's going to pine over Dawn's absence. The only BG who actually doesn't mind watching musicals till 3 a.m. And she's definately going to miss Venna - the only BG who doesn't despise Twilight or anime. Bleh. I could go on and on, but what's the point? Killing us will do nothing."

Sheba laughed.

"Killing you will do everything." She said. "It will let you know how strong I am, how dangerous I can be. First impressions are everything, and if the first time we meet I kill you, that puts a message in the back of your head saying that I'm bad. No-- I'm evil. Which is more than most can say for the rest of these morons. Just look at L-Fang, she's just whining that Nightmare is evil. Boo hoo. Suck it up and come try to kill me."

Shakka leaned over to L-Fang.

"I don't remember her as being this insane." He said.

"You forgot it drives you insane being dead for that long." L-Fang was glaring at Sheba.

Now L-Fang wasn't stunned anymore, but Bee and Embire were face/palming at something else.

"Should we tell them that the static is deadly poison?" Bee murmured to Embire.

"This isn't our battle." Said Embire. "If they wish to be strong, then they will have to beat them themselves."


And with that, L-Fang fell backwards. Blood dripped from her mouth.

Kiwi was suddenly next to Bee and Embire. She had a Super Sized bag of Doritos in her hand. "They're prolly right - I would bring them back. I'd miss them too much!"

Then she thought. "But maybe a few days wherever they go will do them good. Moral fiber, man!"

Phoebe remembered, quickly, grabbed a knife and hurled it at Sheba's face. Then, she blinked away, so that they wouldn't know where she was at.

But she could see them.

Then, Erika walked around the corner. She was in her blue jumpsuit, what she wore whenever there was a fight.

"I had to lock Spike in the basement." She told Dawn. "You have to learn to fight your own battles, Dawn."

Dawn nodded.

Jason began pushing himself up, with a groan. His eyes were determined, but painful.

Shakka ran over to Bee's life-size statue of Zoro, and pulled a sword out of his hand and tossed it to Jason.

"Catch!" Shakka yelled.

Jason grabbed the sword's handle. "Pugna!" He growled, throwing it into Nightmare's shoulder.

Nightmare turned, and she too, had a sword in her hand. "Pugna suscipio!" She yelled. With that, they both had bandannas tied across their heads, Nightmare's was purple, and Jason's was blue. Another sword appeared in Jason's hand, it hit Nightmare's with a loud slashing noise.

"OH MY GOD IT'S ZORO." Said Bee.

"OH MY GOD YOU'RE RIGHT!!!!!!!!" Kiwi screamed. She thought: I'm going to have to find a new favorite Manga charrie. Bether's already got dibs on Ninja midget . . . Bee stole Zoro - I KNEW HIM FIRST!!!! . . . GAARA!!!!!! Or maybe Sasuke? I dunno. BUT PIRATES ARE TOO COOL!!!!!!! oh yeah, Luffy!!!!! DIBS ON LUFFY PEOPLE!!!!!

Phoebe blinked over to Kiwi's marble statue of Luffy stretching, and touched it. A white light flashed through her body.

"GUM-GUM PISTOL!!!" Phoebe screamed at the same time as Kiwi whispered it in awe. Phoebe's arm shot out about thirty feet and socked Sheba in the face, then it snapped back into normal position.

Kiwi was a classic fangirl at that moment, jumping up and down screaming. "THAT WAS SO TOTALLY COOL!!!! I MEAN SERIOUSLY!!!!! I KNEW WHEN I MADE THAT STATUE WITH CRUSHED GUM-GUM FRUIT MIXED IN WITH THE NON-HARDENED MARBLE IT WAS GOING TO BE REALLY REALLY REALLY REALLY REALLY REALLY REALLY AWESOME!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!"
