Nightmare's Escape

Nightmare was travelling with her twin sister, Daydream, through Kol and Alina's home world when they were hit by a magical storm. They got separated, each flung into a random world. However, when Nightmare landed, she didn't wake up. She was trapped in a coma, in the Dreamscape. But the coma wasn't the only effect the storm had on her. It also suppressed her memories. She met and befriended Gargmal after giving him a nightmare. They watched as Kol and Alina reunited and woke up. Nightmare continued to lose hope as she hears tales of her sister, who can't reach her, and can't wake her.

Then, on day, she wakes up. A piercing scream echoed around the Dreamscape as Nightmare escapes her coma. As it turns out, it wasn't the physical touch that woke Kol and Alina up, but the emotion that came with it. The joy of finally seeing one another again. What woke Nightmare up, was the opposite. It was not joy, it was pain. Nightmare woke up when her mental communication sent over the pain of a death. Daydream had died. And that was what woke Nightmare up.
