[i]'Well, he's recovered some. He's not bright red anymore'[/i] Seishu chuckles to himself quietly and motions that he is indeed ready to head back. He simply nods in reply to his question, the sight of the overly bright swirling energies making his stomach turn despite his recent “feeding”. [i]'So bright, so shiny. . .'[/i] With a sigh he rolls his eyes at Enasi and slides into the portal behind the other male. He keeps his eyes closed to lessen the effect on his system, but even without seeing it he still steps out the other side feeling dizzy. His hand darts out to where he can feel Enasi just ahead of him and ha manages not to tip over. [i]'I wonder if I'll be able to make my own portals from here eventually, or if it's dream power only. . .'[/i] 

He doesn't have long to think about the discomfort of travel between the realms too long because moments later the tell tale sound of large feet bounding into the room draws his attention. He looks up to see Hops bounding into the room, skidding to a halt in front of the returned guardians. He looks a bit frantic as he glances wildly about them as if trying to find something. Before he can be asked what's wrong Crios and a pack of dreams and minions rush into the room. Most stop just inside the doorway to the hall, but Crios and Cho all run up beside Harper, looks of distress and the threat of tears evident on their faces. At last Harper speaks up. “My lord, Rue has gone missing. I have reports that he was last seen around this hall. I was hoping he'd return with you.” He glances towards Seishu, a clear glint of anger in his eyes. “I have just spoken to a minion who was chased down by a nightmare minion in the area you were just in. It seems the foul thing was trying to capture the minion. God only knows why. . .But Rue, alone, obviously green and unable to make his own portals. . .” His voice trails off at the implication.
