After a long confession Zecheng has made Aubrey just smiled and gaves him a tight hug. "Don't worry Mr. Tail, my brain may have blurred my vision at you. But what my heart says is that your the guy whose willing to do all to protect what's yours' even if it's to be killed by the king. I am willing to listen to guide if that's what you wish for me to be out of danger. Even if it means, be separated at the end." When she says those words she hold her tears up. For a while they stayed on their seats holding each other's hand.

Zecheng broke the silence when he asked her about her if she's willing to stay. Aubrey nods answering his question. But it made Zecheng to worry, he felt guilty that he exposed his selfishness towards her. When all he just wants was to make Aubrey live unto the world where she truly belongs. So then Aubrey shares she saw a castle when she was throwed at the sky. And they both decided to do some actions to scape from the room.

While looking around for some clue Aubrey noticed the water inside the pitcher on the table was making circle vibration from the ground. Another danger was brimming, through the instinct that tells her something will happen and it was the bones they're calling for reinforcement.

"Did I call these danger?" Aubrey vents out in panic.

"What do you mean?" Zecheng asked.

"I suddenly feel fear. I remembered that Ms. Canlas once told me I call for danger."

Then including Zecheng pondered the last time they meet up with Ms. Canlas.

*A flashback*

"How does my story do with my situation?" Aubrey confusedly asked.

Then Ms. Canlas asked Zecheng to remove the coat covering his body.

"Wait, stop.. like seriously Zecheng don't do it. It's very inappropriate" Aubrey intervene. But Zecheng still do what miss Canlas asked to do. He took of his coat, and the shy Aubrey covered her face. Miss Canlas requested her to look at him. With a little persuasion she look at Zecheng's masculinity. But the more surprising besides that was the wound he got from the fight. She can't believe the wound was exactly the location she has told.

"Do you get the message of what I had just told you." Ms Canlas said.

"I'm good at guessing?"

"No it is you who controls these world. The ink was your loyal servant..." Ms Canlas explained.

*Ends*

"If I am not right... The approaching danger is the bones reinforcement, their so called God and protector, the Giant mummified Zombie."Aubrey guessed. Then after seconds of saying it trees can be heard cracking like t'was stepped by something larger than trees. Could Aubrey be right? Can she still control things even when she was in the ritual.

The closer the sound the stronger the nervous she felt. It's not just she herself in the dream. She also sensed the emotion she felt was experienced by her fleash whose outside and unconscious. And she must think how to get out. Zecheng who was also in fear from the danger that Aubrey warned holds her hand. He choose to be stronger seeing Aubrey closed her eyes. Only he knew Aubrey was trying her best not to see her prediction. He suddenly felt unaware of his actions and closed his eyes. He tried to fight the force inside that suddenly controls him like a remote controlled robot. And finally he got out of it. As he opened his eyes he was surprised. He could say it's the best experience although he live in a world where everything can happen. Aubrey saw the amazement of Zecheng's eyes as they float in the air going towards the peak of the mountain where Devial's castle resides.

On the other hand, they were very not aware that everything they do has been seen by Devial. Through a giant book that seems exactly like the book Aubrey stolen. In every pages it's like a a cctv of the event in Aubrey's Dream world. "He...he...he... Their ending is finally coming." The evil Devial grins looking to the happy new couple floating towards their greatest nightmare. "Ink! Prepare the cast, everyone should be present since these was the ending..." She commands and laughs crazily.

The ink flies around the dream world of Aubrey's desired land. The fountain which she came first and where the other characters or people she met and becomes one of the characters in the story suddenly loosen their senses. It's like they were possessed by something uncontrollable. Their eyes were blank and aware that they were walking towards the danger they didn't wish to be with.

Beyond the created world of minds, where the real living breathe. The 8nk was taken their through the real characters Aubrey made. Even the those who are not yet asleep suddenly collapsed just to fullfill their characters and do what the ink was commanded for. As each souls of those who got involve like Ruichen, Myrtle, Ms. Canlas. The real selves who got involved appeared in one dream. And the role they were playing next depends on how they were force to act by the ink. For them it remains unclear how they dream like that. A dream that seems so real, but they just deny that kind of feeling since they believe, dream is a dream everything can be possible but to connect on other people's dream is impossible.

Aubrey and Zecheng arrived in the castle, where everything was already set up by Devial's command. At the time they have set foot on the land Ruichen, the real self of Ruichen arrived. He was smiling as he approached the Aubrey and said, "I'm glad I once again dream of you. I missed you a lot, I really thought we will not meet again after our graduation. But luckily I kept on dreaming of you."

Aubrey was stunned, she was confused if the Ruichen she's facing was the real Ruichen or it's just a scheming act of the king. Since she knew the king was very ruthless and can even act like a kind person. She scanned the posture specially the eyes it expressed and was surprised to the fact that she actually got connected on Ruichen's dream. Because of these she got nervous what could be the surprises Devial prepared. Was she ready to face the entanglement of the dreams of her previous classmates.
