An Electrifying Arietta!

The drowzee led the Pikachu and the Fletchling into the back, towards two rather comfortable looking cushions and nests. Morpheus gestured to the nests, signaling that the two should get comfortable, "Alright," he began, "I'm going to use hypnosis, when you fall asleep, don't panic at what you might dream about at first. I'll join you in your dream once the dream is stable and will allow another into the dream. Nate, the tower is likely going to look very different from last time due to your joining with Arietta."

Morpheus took a seat at more of a crouch than actually sitting, waiting for the two to confirm their understanding before beginning, "So do you have any questions or concerns before we begin?" he asked. He always liked to make sure the customer felt comfortable and tried to avoid making them nervous. After all, this was a thing they knew nothing about that he knew almost everything about. He had been studying it his entire life, even since he was a child thanks to his father.

Arietta followed the Drowzee with energetic excitement. She'd heard about the service that the skilled pokemon provided from a traveller passing through Grassveil Town. Extremely curious about what it would entail, and wondering what sort of move she could gain if she managed to traverse the entire tower, she had chosen to fly to Rainfront Town to try out the unique service.
Upon reaching the home of the DreamCatchers, she had run into a certain Pikachu and, realising that they were here for the same thing, had suggested that they go in together. After all everything was always better when you had friends with you, not that Arie had known the Pikachu, Nate, for very long. (About 30 seconds really.)

Landing gently in one of the nests, Arietta furled her pale grey wings and made herself comfortable before listening intently to the Drowzee's words.
"Oh, so you've been here before?" the Fletchling asked Nate suddenly. Whichever way she looked at it, that was extremely useful since he'd likely have more of an understanding of what was going on.

Staying alongside Arietta, Nate simply followed along with a more mellow feel, looking around the familiar area. He had been there before, just him and Morpheus, doing the same thing he was about to do now, the Dream Tower. After deciding to give it another try, the Pikachu had run into the Fletchling close to their destination. Since she was going for the same thing, and she was so excited and lively about going together, he had agreed.

He nodded to the Drowzee, acknowledging what he was saying about the dream tower being different. It was a bit exciting and unnerving for Nate, making him wonder what sort of stuff they would find.
"Yeah, I was here before." He responded to the tiny robin Pokemon, walking over to the other nest and sitting down, leaning onto his back.
"I can't say I was overly successful with it though. I got a little into it, and then after that it's a bit hazy on what happened." The Pikachu continued as he closed his eyes, getting comfortable.

The drowzee crouched in front of the duo, utilizing hypnosis to begin to send the pokemon to sleep. Once they were asleep, the two had found themselves together, next to each other. The usual darkness surrounded them, everything was deathly silent. One could not even hear the air turning as there was no wind.

The silence was interrupted by a sudden pillar of flames erupting from the ground. Two flames, one to the left of Arietta and to the right of Nate, with Arietta standing to Nate's left, pillared up from the ground into the sky, only to be met half way as lightning seemed to flash down from an unseen sky and collide with the flames. The event repeated itself behind the first in a wave like pattern a few times before splitting off into a circle. When the two sides of the circle met each other, a large column of fire blasted up from the ground, illuminating the room completed to show a grassy and soft floor but eternal darkness and emptiness other directions.

The fiery column continued upward, until a crack of thunder erupted from above and lightning came down to meet the flames, instead of stopping the flames from continuing upwards, it instead combined with the flames. The strange performance seemed to be growing dark in color, but the light remained despite the source of light fading, until the two elements seemed to shape into a tower that held similar appearance in style to the houses in Grassveil. The tower seemed to be faded though, as if it was merely a colored cloud.

Morpheus suddenly appeared behind the two, taking in the look of the tower before speaking, "It looks as if its made of clouds, but we can walk on them I-" he was interrupted by a loud crack of thunder, it rumbled into silence, only for another to begin. It seemed as if the sound of thunder was going to frequent itself here, but the sounds weren't too loud, and allowed the trio to hear each other.

"Maybe it'll go better now there are two of us..." the Fletchling replied cheerfully, trailing off as she drifted off to sleep, feeling the effects of Morpheus's Hypnosis move.

After falling asleep, the Fletchling found herself within the forming Dream Tower, stood to the left of the Pikachu who had agreed to accompany her. Glancing around, she found that it was almost eerie here, with not even the slightest breeze to ruffle her feathers and a darkness blacker than that of a moonless night. She was so busy getting used to her new surroundings that the eruption of a pillar of fire on both sides alarmed her, causing her to take to the air out of reflex and hover just above the place she had previously been standing. From this new airborne position, Arietta couldn't help but admire the flames as they shot up into the air before being struck by lightning.

The newly formed 'room' was bizarre to say the least. The floor was grassy and looked pleasant to stand upon, but surrounding them was still the same blackness from before as if the world was empty other than where they stood. The way in which this dream world formed the tower that they were to traverse was a demonstration of the endless limits that seemed to be imposed on it. After all, dreams were subject to the dreamer's imagination, weren't they?

Arietta glanced behind her to look at the Drowzee as he spoke, but for once didn't quite have any words to reply with, instead turning back to see if she could spot any lightning that would precede the constant thunder and waiting for their guide to take the lead.

The next time the Pikachu opened his eyes, he had barely even noticed he had. The whole area was darkened, pitch black. He could see Arietta, but other than that, nothing. The erupting flames made him jump somewhat as the pillars rose up, electricity striking down from the sky to meet the fire. To him, it seemed almost as if the two elements were fighting one another. Was this because they were both at the tower, and it was trying to incorporate both of their minds?

"Well...you weren't joking when you said it would be different." Nate deadpanned after Morpheus spoke to them, some surprise still able to be barely heard in his voice as he couldn't take his eyes off of the room that they now seemed to be in. Turning back to look at the Drowzee, he waved ahead with a wry smile.
"After you, I suppose." He commented, not overly anxious to be the first to step in.

Morpheus nodded, it was better for him to be first, less of a chance of his clients to be in danger. He moved around the two, stepping up to the tower of strangely colored clouds. There was no door, just an open gaping entrance of the tower that invited any within. He found a large set of stairs that seemed to lead upwards into an even bigger room, as the stairs took up a good chunk of the ground floor's space. The second floor, from the viewpoint at the bottom of the set of stairs, seemed to be bigger than what the tower actually was. Morpheus turned with a smile, "Come on!" he spoke.

((Choose your numbers please, just one person needs to))

Arietta's expression turned into a grin once more at the Drowzee's smile as he beckoned them to move towards the tower. Interested to see what the Dream Tower was like, the Fletchling glided gently after Morpheus, making things easier for herself by avoiding having to climb the steps, not wasting any time as they entered the second floor of the cloud-like tower.

With a small smile, Nate nodded his head and brought up the back of the trio, staying behind and glancing back warily, wanting to make sure nothing got behind them. He wasn't overly paranoid he didn't think, but still, it was probably good to have a little bit of caution. The Pikachu turned back around as they reached the stairs and began to move up into the second floor, still surprised by how different the size was compared to what it seemed on the outside. It was strange, really.

Numbers: 2, 13, 24

Making up to the second floor, Arietta glanced around. The little Fletchling noted that the entire room, walls, floors, ceiling and all was made entirely of wood, and yet it was also entirely empty and unused. The wooden panelling on all sides of the room didn't look very stable and Arie took it upon herself to test some of the floor boards, poking them with her tiny black feet but not quite standing on them. She didn't want to fall through the floor should it prove to be even weaker than it looked, and so used her wings to remain above the ground.

"Since the room is empty, whatever it is must be in under the boards right?" asked Arietta, flying upwards.
"I'll check the ones in the ceiling, since you can't really reach and I don't really fancy standing on that rickety floor,"she chuckled, examining the one nearest to where she had stopped and seeing if there were an easy way to pry it from whatever was holding it up.

"Right, yeah. Can't wait to test how much weight these floorboards can hold." Nate gave a wry smile, looking around at the wooden room. It was rickety, and it almost felt like something would simply give out from underneath him. That was most likely just paranoia though. He carefully walked towards the center of the room, stepping meticulously around the more sketchy looking boards and found one to start with, finding a spot where it was sticking up a bit more and pulling on it, trying to pry it open to see wha was underneath.

If Morpheus was worried about the floorboards, he sure kept it hidden. He walked to the side of the walls, examining the board of the sides. He lifted his hand, a claw of psychic energy forming on it as he was using Psycho Cut to help him pry open a board. He placed the psychic energy's tips in between the tiny gap between the boards. He began to pull, trying to get the board to pop right off. After a moment of trying, the board finally snapped right off, but broke into half in the process.

'Oops..' Morpheus thought, not wanting to have damaged the board.

Behind the boards the various pokemon had pulled, was complete and utter darkness. It seemed as if nothing was behind it, until strange shadows leaked from each of them. The shadows crawled towards the back of the room, and began to take shape. A Oshawott, Chimchar, and another Drowzee appeared!

Eventually, the Tiny Robin used her small black feet to prise the board she had chosen from it's position on the room's ceiling. It took a little more effort than she'd have liked, no thanks to the spindly form her legs and feet took, but eventually she got the board off, the wood clattering to the ground beneath her.
Briefly, Arie glanced over to Morpheus at the sound of splintering wood, however she then turned back to where she was working, about to grab onto a second wooden board when she noticed the blackness that could be seen behind the first. Cautiously, Arietta moved close, intending to peer into the gap she had created and see if there was actually anything on the other side. Before she could get too close, the blackness seemed to leak from the missing board, crawling into the main room and taking on some oddly familiar forms.

"Uhm, Morpheus right? What does this mean?" asked the Fletchling, still hovering near the wooden ceiling.

As the Pikachu finally pried the floorboard off, he paused a moment, peering down into the...well, nothing that was there. It was just a black void. After a few seconds, he jumped back, watching as the shadows seemed to flow out from the void, along with the other places the trio had pried boards up from.
"I feel like they're not exactly going to be friendly..." Nate commented after Arietta asked Morpheus about the beings, taking notice of the figures and backing away a few steps.
