"I thought you were going to leave me alone", he said in a quiet, but stern tone.

ic. Reluctantly, one of the nurses found the unconcious girl laying on the groun, before the effects of her powers consumed her life. She was put back in the small hospital located in the basement. After a few days she woke up, in better condition. She was still horrified about the two dead bodies in her room, but her health was terrific. The nurses finally excused her from bed, and let her take it easy. Her room had been cleaned, but an ere feeling still lingered in her room. Most of her recovering days were spent in the library away from other kids. One day when she was reading poetry, Shiloh remembered Nightmare. The sudden rememberance startled her mind. Where was he? She wondered. She tried searching the school for him, but no trace was found. Finally she went to the professor and asked him.
She entered the Professor’s library, but there were no books. He only read the minds of youngsters and great authors. He noticed Shiloh's presence the second she had decided to come to him.
Before Shiloh could ask her question, the Professor answered it.
"He's in the Astral Plane, and since you don't know what that is, I'll tell you. The Astral Plane is where all thought goes to, its every mind in the world linked together. Only telepath's - like you - can enter the Astral Plane. Nightmare is considered a telepath for his mind reading abilities. And on the full moon his power's increase enough so he can enter the Astral Plane. But I'm afraid he cannot leave it." The Professor wheeled himself closer to Shiloh, "You and I, I'm afraid, need to enter the Astral Plane and find him. Do you think you’re up to it?"
Shiloh nodded. Inside, she wanted to see Nightmare more than anything else. "Ill go....how do we find him though, and what do we have to do?" she asked, still a little unsure about the Astral Plane.
"Come with me."
The Professor turned and rolled toward the door and motioned Shiloh to follow. He took her into an elevator and pressed the button for the Subfloor. He turned his head a looked up, and gave Shiloh a quaint smile. They hit the Subfloor, and he rolled into the Cerebro Room and brought Shiloh in with him.
Shiloh felt the room spin very soon after the Professor put his helmet on. Then she found herself completely still, everything clear, and she felt much more powerful. The Professor WALKED past Shiloh and told her to follow.
The effect of the professor walking, lingered in the girls mind. As if she was mezmorized, Shiloh followed him wondering what the Astral Plane would be like. She smiled, glad to see the professor walking, even though she didnt understand why.
"You are in the Astral Plane, look around you!" He raised his arms in the air. Shiloh could see strange things, like many dreams meshed together. Sometimes it would be like reading a book, others like looking into a house in Wonderland.
The professor grabbed Shiloh's arm and said; "I've found Nightmare." Shiloh felt that dizziness again, and they weren't far from Josh's mind, when they saw Nightmare.
His appearance altered by the Astral Plane. In the Astral Plane, Nightmare was completely black, like a shiny rubber, and pure white eyes. Almost like a demon of the Shadow King, Professor X's mortal enemy. Hopefully they won't have any run-ins with the Shadow King. Nightmare turned and saw Shiloh.
"Shiloh!" he started running towards her.
