“W…where?” Hässlicher asked, the bus felt empty and no sign of deity at all, this made him confused until he saw the three sleeping very heavily.
“This deity seems very smart.” Ayame said as she looked at everyone, sleeping and there was no sign of waking up even by moving their body.
“What do you think we are fighting with?” Hässlicher asked as he heard Amis snored, this gave the succubus an idea about the deity they are after.
“Probably something about sleeping.” Ayame scratches her chin as they began discussing what should they do about this.
Meanwhile, in the dreamland, the three were standing and glaring at the two sentient beings, a deity with a demon-fighting against an Angel, Roman, and a Knight. Even if the place is very lighthearted and there was no sign of dread, they know a battle would happen and tore this dream into chaos.
“Now DIE THEN!” The deity shouted as he then releases out powerful dust from his arms.
“Heather… what should we do?” Troy asked as he realizes he couldn't use their powers in the dream world.
“Troy… run.” Heather shouted, without a second thought, Troy followed and began fleeing away while Amis was trying to take his stance and sure he won't be a coward.
“fleeing is a dishonor.” Amis stated, Heather then sighed as she flapped her wings and grab him quickly as they continued running away.
“Why? Fleeing is very disrespectful!” Amis argued to the angel. Heather sighed as Troy looked at him with a poker face.
While they were fleeing, they saw the two beings chasing after them, Troy tried to form something from his hand but sadly, they are in the dreamland where there are no real atoms thus no real materials to make stuff.
“Any ideas Heather?” Troy asked. Then pockets of explosions sprouted out behind them, Amis saw the two are throwing bombs toward them, he notices that the bombs drop in all of a sudden in the sentient beings' arms.
“There!” Heather said as she saw a cave, they flew toward it safety and manage to make the two beings confused. They manage to get in and was surprised by the first thing they saw.
“Thank goodness finally someone would rescue us!” greeted by one of the people, they were all shocked to see the other passengers of the bus were there, with them in this dream world.
“Are you guys alright?” asked one of the passengers.
“Yes, don't worry. Did anybody got hurt?” Heather assured and then asked the passengers, she noticed that everyone was safe while Troy was keeping an eye out to sure they didn't get followed.
“What should we do?” asked one of the worried passengers to the angel.
“I don't know…” Heather sighed, she tried making sure these passengers are alright while the two were looking at the entrance of the cave sorting out on where the, God and demon are.
“How can we get out of this hell hole?” Troy sighed. He wasn't losing hope, he was hopeless as he noticed that they were trapped in a dangerous place alongside innocent lives.
“I think we can.” Amis said as he remembers the deities making bombs from thin air.
“If I recall, this is a dream right?” Amis asked as he started forming the solution in their situation.
“Yeah, why?” Troy answered him.
“We can make objects by our thoughts like this!” Amis said as he recalls an old textbook from his time about making items through their dreams. He then began thinking and manage to make a sword out of thin air, breaking the rules of Quanti powers but supports the rule of dreaming.
“Let me try.” Troy was a bit of excited so he decided to make something from his thoughts, then a spear was made in front of him, he grabbed it quickly and was a relief as they finally know how to defeat the sentient beings. They went to the group and told them what to do as a sparking idea then started to pop up in their minds.
“Listen, Heather, we now know what to do.” Troy stated as he repeatedly taps the angel's shoulder. But in a twist, he saw the other passengers already have the weapons they need to protect themselves.
“How…” Troy asked, Amis, followed him, and was stunned as well.
“How what?” the angel asked, the roman and knight stood silent as awkwardness spread through them, Heather began laughing at the two.
“Alright, let's go.” She said after laughing, there were kids with guns, adults with guns, and everyone has a g*n, except for the three.
“Why do they have so many guns?” Troy asked as he looked at everyone who was holding a g*n.
“And is it a problem?” Heather asked as Troy sighed and just let them be.
After an hour in the real world, Ayame was bored while Hässlicher was listening to music. The bus driver was still awake, the conductor was sleeping as well while everyone was asleep.
“Say Hässlicher how was your mom?” Ayame asked as she tried to break her boredom. Hässlicher manages to listen to her, and he paused the music and places his headphones on his lap.
“She's having a good life.” Hässlicher answered and then all of a sudden, the three and everyone was finally waking up.
“That took longer than I expected.” Troy stated as he wakes up, panting, and was a bit tired.
“What happened?” the succubus asked the three. Everyone was celebrating as they finally wake up and the driver was a bit annoyed by it but he did what he could do, ignore it.
“We fought a deity and a demon at once.” Amis was excited as he realizes how fun it was to battle alongside innocent people with guns that he never heard of.
“let me guess, their weapons in the dream world were guns?” Ayame asked them, the three nodded gently as she sighed and facepalmed very hard on her face.
“That’s the most American dream I have ever heard.” Ayame sighed.
After that, everyone went back to normal, the people decided to continue their sleep while others started watching some shows on their laptops as for the three, they decided to take some sleep leaving Hässlicher awake, listening to his music.
“Hmm, I wonder how did they defeat them?” Hässlicher said while he was listening to his music.
The bus continued through the highway to St Lois and so the journey continued.
