Episode 39: In the Depths of a Nightmare

Louise:.......

Dejiko: Louise, what's with those clothes nya? The atmosphere is completely different.

Sonico: Rather than being a mage, you look more like a shrine maiden.

Louise: Yeah, a little.

Mion: I don't think it's a nightie.

Louise: No, it's not. I thought if I wore this I would remember something.

Haruka: Are those clothes special to you?

Louise: Maybe...I don't know much about that either. I just wondered if it would let me remember anything about Gandálfr.

Koto: You're a void mage, aren't you? Don't you remember what he looks like?

Louise: No. I can't picture his face or his voice at all. But there is a special feeling that comes from the word Gandálfr.

Shion: I think it's important to cherish that feeling.

Tiffania: I think that's a good idea.

Louise: Tifa....Tifa do you feel anything when you think about Gandálfr?

Tiffania: No, nothing.

Tiffania: But I didn't get a bad feeling at all, I'm sure he's a very nice person.

Mion: If Gandálfr was a man, he'd love Tefa, wouldn't he?

Tiffania: Eh?

Louise: What do you mean?

Mion: He'd like melons better than lemon. If he's a man.

Louise: Mion! That's what you're talking about!?

Meru: (I'm on the lemon side, aren't I?)

J: (Claude, melons or lemons, which one do you like?)

Claude: (no comments please....)

Claude: (What about you?)

J: (You mean me? Yes, that's right, I am in a place beyond that.)

J: (You can love melons and lemons equally).

Claude:.....

J: (Is it too early for you Claude? As long as they're cute, that's all that matters.)

J (For example, Louise would look good in such an outfit.)

Claude: (This is.......only....)

Meru: Claude, what's wrong?

Claude: Ha! No, no it's nothing.

Mion: becuase the familiar is a human being, you'd be wondering whether he was a man or a woman! You don't even know if it's they're a respectful person or lewd.

Louise: Listen! Gandálfr, is the left hand of God, they are the shield of God that protects the Lord! They wouldn't be lewd!

Tiffania: There have been both female and male void familliars in the past.

Louise: Well, the fake me is obsessed with the idea of meeting Gandálfr.

Mion: Then he's a man!

Sonico: Ummm, are you sure about that?

Kurumi: Hey, are you still awake? Why don't you go to bed and get ready for tomorrow Tesla and Nine are already asleep!

Louise: That's right. Let's go to bed.

Tiffania: We should rest up and get ready for tomorrow.

Haruka: Well, no matter what time I go to bed, I can't wake up anyway, so I'd rather talk to you for a while.....

Sonico: Oh, me too! A warm futon is a magical thing!

Kurumi: Just because you can't get up doesn't mean you can't stay up late! Go to bed now!

Haruka & Sonico: O-okay, good night!

[Meanwhile with Tesla and Nine]

Tesla: Ugh....ugh no......father....

Nine:.......Sister?

Tesla: Don't....do it.....Don't try to destroy the world....!

Tesla: Please, please don't.....Father!

[White flash of light]

Episode 39 In the Depths of a Nightmare

Tesla: Huh.....!? Where am I? Is this what's left of the world after the Gistave was fired?

[Enemies appear]

Tesla: ....!!

Tesla: What....Is this what the world will be like if the fighting doesn't end?

[Nine appears]

Nine:.....Sister!

Tesla: Nat-chan!! Where is this place...?

Nine: Unknown. ....but.

[The group appears]

Red Angel: Tesla-chan!!

Tesla: Minazuki!? And everyone else....?

Koto: That's funny? I was supposed to go to bed after Kurumi told me not to stay up too late???

Sonico: Wawa, I'm pretty sure we did ........ But why are we still awake?

Rem: No, this isn't really happening. We are in Tesla's dream, or rather in her nightmare.

Mion: We're in a dream!?

Rem: Yes, someone has taken control of Tesla's dream, turned it into a nightmare, and dragged us into it.

Tsubasa: If it wasn't Rem saying it, I don't think I'd be able to believe it. That I've been dragged into someone else's dream.

Dejiko: If it's a dream we just need to get woken up nya! Puchiko! You're gonna wake me up nya!

Puchiko: Eye beam!

[Puchiko shoots Dejiko]

Dejiko: Ouch nya! It didn't work nya, I'm not waking up nya!!

Rem: Don't do it. There are only so many ways to wake up from a controlled nightmare!

Koto: But, since we're in a dream isn't it fine even if we get attacked?

Rem: I'm sorry, but if you die in the dream you die in real life.

Dejiko: I don't understand what's going on nya!!

White Angel: So, how do we get out of here?

Rem:.....I can't say for sure.

Rem: However, this is only possible for someone with strong dreams. It's...

???: Heh.....

Rem: That voice!? It's not Dr.Shinigami!?

[Dark Rem appers]

Dark Rem.......

Rem: You are...!

Dark Rem:.......

Koto: Rem's fake?

Tsubasa: You created this situation, didn't you?

Dark Rem:........

Rem: No reply, huh? So you have no argument.

Rem: Listen up! In the dream world, the strength of your mind is your strength!

Rem: Don't be nervous, afraid or surprised. Try to keep a strong mind!

Red Angel: Eh!? You can't even be surprised?

White Angel: Haruka, don't be suprised right from the get go!

Red Angel: so-sorry....ahaha.....

Mion: All we have to do is be strong! Then it's the same as usual! There's nothing to be afraid of!

Dark Rem:........

Victory: 1.Survive a certain number of turns 2.Defeat Dark Rem. Defeat: Tesla, Nine, or Rem are defeated.

[Deploy]

[Defeat an enemy]

[A new enemy spawns to replace the one defeated]

Dejiko: Even though we just beat one, another one appeared nya?

Sonico: Awawa.....Didn't this happen in the hot spring cave too?

Rem: There's no limit to the number of them in a dream. Even if you take down a dream demon, they'll just come back!

Tsubasa: In other words we need to defeat the fake Rem!

Dark Rem:........

[Defeat Dark Rem]

[A haze appears around Dark Rem]

Dark Rem:.......

Red Angel: Oh, something's coming out?

Louise: What is that weird stuff?

Rem: Is that a wave of REM sleep!? If she's wrapped up in it, we won't be able to defeat her.

Mion: What are we supposed to do if we can't beat her!?

Rem: Don't like your mind falter Mion. We'll just have to keep on pushing as we have been.

Dejiko: We're just supposed to keep attacking her nya!?

[If you defeat Dark Rem again she revives]

[Defeat Dark Rem 3(?) more times or a certain number of turns pass and the stage ends]

Kurumi: Eh!? Where is this place?

Kurmi: Huh....what about the enemy? Where's the fake Rem?

Tesla: Hazuki, if I may ask...Were you not fighting in my dream world?

Kurumi: Did you have the same dream?

Nine:.....Me too, the same.

Kurumi: Is that even possible?

Kurumi: Ah!

Tesla: What's wrong?

Kurumi: I saw it....your dream. You were trying to stop the Gustave from firing.

Tesla: Eh......did you see that?

Kurumi: .....Yeah. So.....

Kurumi: ......I'm sorry for doubting you.

Tesla: Hazuki....

Kurumi: If that was an act, your performance would go down in history.

Kurumi: That's why, from now on I'll be relying on you!

Kurumi: I won't forgive you, if you were lying!

Nine:.....Understood.

Tesla: We look forward to working with you!

[The following morning]

Mion: Eeh! We all had the same dream?

Koto: It felt so real!

Sonico: Yeah, It was very strange!

Rem: No, it was a dream, but it was real. We were in Tesla's dream. All the fighting was real too.

Tiffania: It's definitely felt real. But I don't understand, how did we escape from the dream dream?

Dejiko: It ended so abruptly nya. Is it because we woke up nya?

Rem: Yeah, I know....It was strange.

Rem: What's strange?

Rem: There is no way out of a dream that is controlled by the power of dreams. And yet the dream has come to an abrupt end.

Aoi: Did we not defeat the fake Rem?

Rem: No, there's no way you can beat it. I know better than anyone that as long as you're protected by the waves of REM sleep, you're invincible.

Rem: The fake me should have been perfectly fine. And yet we all woke up from our dreams. If that happened....

Tsubasa: If so, what is it?

Rem: The only thing I can think of is that someone from outside the dream had invaded.

Rem: But only those who have the power of dreams, or the power to compete with them, can do so.

Puchiko: In other words, who did it nyu?

Rem: That's.....

[Meanwhile]

Yase: Well, that takes care of that....

Yase: Seriously, what the hell did that girl do to Koto!? Tell me!

Dr.Shinigami: Fufufu.....

[Meanwhile with Mii and Kei]

Kei: The testing of Dark Rem is complete. We are very happy with the results.

Mii: Do you think it's really necessary? I don't think that Dark Rem is interesting at all. She's like a human statue!

Kei: Recently, Dr.Shinigami's behaviour has been brought into question. His power of dreams is dangerous.

Mii: Is that so? Kei-chan are you afraid of things you can't understand?

Kei: Heavenly messanger's power. Power of dreams. Void magic. IS. Hinamizawa.......Totally incomprehensible.

Mii: I don't understand either, that's why it's so interesting! Kei-chan doesn't get it yet.

Kei: I understand. We don't have enough data.

Mii: Wrong! It's not about the data! Bu bu!!
