Dream sat quietly by herself in the gardens thinking over what had just happened in class. She was nervous...

Frustrated from class and feeling like an utter failure from the start Emma walked out to the gardens to get some air. She had her eyes closed, rubbing her temples, the soft breeze blowing the blonde locks from her face. "If I'm gonna just keep failing with these kids, I don't know if I can keep trying," she muttered to herself, trying to release the building tension in her head. A migraine must be coming on.

Dream saw Emma coming and jumped backwards into the fountain, her tail instantly springing up.

Emma heard the splash and looked it up. "What was that?" she said audibly.

Dream couldn't help herself...she poked her eyes over the side of the fountain, hoping not to be seen...

Emma caught a glimpse of someone peeking out of the fountain, and raised a brow. "What the?" she took a step toward it before realizing it must be Dream. No one else would be silly enough to be in the fountain...or have the capabilities to sustain being there. "Dream?"

Dream sank down to the bottom, trying to be as invisible as possible.

"Dream!" Emma called, looking over the edge of the fountain, able to see her, though blurry, in the bottom. "Dream come up here!"

Dream lightly resurfaced as far away from Emma as possible. Still saying nothing...

Emma sat down on the edge of the fountain, not following her to the other side. "Dream...please..." she said sadly, apologetically.

Dream just stayed there...waiting.

"Dream..." she repeated, dipping a hand in the water, her eyes never leaving her. "Please...i'm not here to hurt you. We can play on your terms...I just wanna talk..."

Dream just looked back. Her though: "Well, talk then..."

"I know you won't believe me when I say this...but I'm not here to hurt you..." her fingers rippled along the water. "I'm here because of Pearl...and Door...and to atone for the horrible things i've done. If I can teach a new group of mutants how not to do the things i've done, follow the paths i've followed--" her breath caught in her throat a moment, as if she really believed her own words. Then her voice took a realistic, but cynical turn, "If I were here to hurt you, Xavier would sense it. He's too smart for me to pull something over on him. You of all people should know it." She lapped a handful of water then dropped it back into the fountain. "Look, I don't need you to be my best friend, or be on my side. Hell, you don't even have to like me. I just don't want you to be scared of me, ok?"

"I am." Said Dream simply.
