Karla: "Where am I? Am I in the Kayblade Graveyard? I hear a voice".

Namine: "You're dreaming".

I looked down at my fingers to see how many there were; I had six of them on one hand and although the sight was terrifying, this was enough to confirm that this was in-fact a dream. And now that I was lucid, I clearly had my main intention in mind. In my past dreams, I would summon Riku as a dream guide, but this time, I knew I had to summon the replica. But I became confused as I did not know what to call him, Repliku seemed a bit too hard on my tongue; whereas if I just called him Riku, the wrong one would appear and my dream would likely be wasted. I decided I would use 'Repku' for the summoning. So now I walked around the empty Keyblade Graveyard as I yelled into the sky multiple times:

Karla: "Repku!".

For a while there was nothing. I may have been lucid but the dream still had its ways of not giving me my way. I realised this and so I called out to the dream.

Karla: "Can you just give me Repliku thanks? I have a job to do and it's for a good cause!".

The dream had indeed responded to me, but not in a way that I had expected. He appeared from the mist of darkness and gained glowing yellow eyes; this was Dark Repliku that the dream had given me. Trying to sound caring, but in an ominous tone, he said:

Dark Repliku: "You called?".

Karla: "Yes, I did call, but not for you".

Dark Repliku: "Come on I heard my name. You were calling for Repku and now I'm here".

Karla: "I don't trust you".

Dark Repliku gave a snort of laughter.

Dark Repliku: "Then why did you call me if you don't trust me?".

Karla: "The wrong... The wrong Repliku responded...".

In an attempt to defame Riku, Dark Repliku went on;

Dark Repliku: "Oh, you want THAT guy? Seriously, I'm way better than he is. I can take you to your biggest nightmares AND with that... Give you the biggest thrills!"

Dark Repliku's eyes turned red and I screamed as I then look back at him and ran across the desert to get as far away from him as I could, but he ended up chasing after me, always hot on my tail. I cried out to the dream;

Karla: "I don't understand! This is a lucid dream! I'm supposed to have control!".

Dark Repliku: "When you allow your dream guides powers and they decide to use them! That's what I'm doing!".

Karla: "My dream guide would never try to kill me! You are not him! Now bugger off!".

Dark Repliku: "Hey! Hurting is not the same as killing! Now stop and let me catch up to you!".

I wasn't speaking now but my own voice with a reverb effect was going

Karla (voice): "The nightmare never ends!".

I realised I had to make an impulse decision. I had to ask for Riku despite know this version wouldn't have any effects on the real him... But if I was to get away from his seemingly deluded replica. As I continued to run from the dark replica, now started to huff and puff, I cried;

Karla: "Riku!".

Eventually, I felt myself being lifted off the ground but still moving at my original pace. I looked back and indeed Riku was now running from his dark replica as he carried me across the desert. He turned me in towards him as he then made a deviation from the straight path. So... Is that all I had to do? Turn a little and I would be off Dark Repliku's course? When it was certain that nobody else was around, Riku put me down and then said to me in a calm but confident tone:

Riku: "He's coming".

And then I woke up.
