Toby and Todd are now at Loud Burger, a popular spot for many of Toby's Classmates, mostly because of the music. Loud Burger always hires a band to play a couple days a week, and this is why it was so popular.
Toby Robinson: I just texted my mom, and she said I should be home at least by six. (Toby said as he read the message on his phone)
Todd Forager: Six huh? My dad wants me home before six, and that's less than an hour from now. (Todd said before placing his phone on the table)
Toby Robinson: Then let's order some food and fill our stomachs, shall we? (Toby says as he waves over a waitress)
"Welcome to Loud Burger, boys. What can I get you? (The pretty waitress asks with a smile)
The employees of loud burger wear white and blue colored shirts, which makes this waitress look prettier than she already was.
Toby Robinson: Can I get a big chicken burger with fries on the side, and please tell the mayonnaise to get lost, because I don't want it in my food. Oh, and I also want a smoothie! (Toby requested with a smile)
"Okay, and what do you want? (The waitress asks as she is writing it down)
Todd Forager: The same please, but without the smoothie. (Todd replies with a smile)
"Okay then, you'll get your food in just a minute. (The waitress tells them before walking away)
Toby Robinson: Thanks! (Toby said to her as she leaves)
There is a band setting up their equipment on the stage at the centre of the restaurant. This is one of the bands that plays here every week, but their lead singer and guitarist is absent for some reason.
Todd Forager: Hey, where's Lerange? (Todd asks as he stares at the band members)
Toby Robinson: I don't know, doesn't seem like he's here yet. (Toby said as he glances at the band members, before turning his attention back on his phone)
Todd Forager: Whatcha doing? (Todd asks him)
Toby Robinson: Just checking my messages. (Toby replied, still using his phone)
Todd Forager: Aah, Smart. (Todd said before he begins to do the same)
Lerange finally arrives at the restaurant, wearing a really cool looking leather jacket. The teenager is the lead singer and guitarist of the band, and with his arrival the band can now start playing.
Sick (The Drummer): Where were you, dude? You're like thirty minutes late. (The curly haired teenager asks)
Lerange Smith(Lead Singer And Guitarist): Sorry, I was working on a new song and I just lost track of time. (Lerange explains as he begins to set up his equipment)
Allison Wells (Singer): You of all people should know the rules, you never show up late for a gig, this is really important to us. (The brunette said with anger in her tone of voice)
Lerange Smith: You don't think I know that, Allison?! Remember it's my songs that got us this gig in the first place, so just get off my back! (Lerange snaps at her).... (Sighs) Look I'm sorry okay, the real reason I'm late is because I overslept, I was working on songs all night, and just lost track of time this morning. It's my fault, and it won't happen again. (Lerange admitted, coming clean to them)
Zack Osprey (Guitarist): Apology accepted, dude... Now let's rock this joint! (Zack said excitedly, ready to play some music)
With their issues resolved Lerange and his band begin to sing and perform to the crowd of people, entertaining everyone with fun lyrics and masterful performance of instruments. The music is of course loud, but not enough to cause an inconvenience, besides everyone is enjoying the music.
Lerange is an excellent singer and songwriter, his voice and lyrics really amping up the crowd of customers, who were still loving the music. This is why Lerange is so popular at school, he has good looks, a good voice, and has a lot of money, a real catch for all the girls in school. But he doesn't mess around with other girls, he only has eyes for his mysterious girlfriend, who no one seems to know.
Toby Robinson: (Sighs) I wish I was in a band. (Toby says with starry eyes)
Todd Forager: But you and I both suck at singing, and I doubt our parents would let us do stuff like this anyways. (Todd tells him)
Toby Robinson: Yeah... It would still be cool though. (Toby says before taking a bite of his burger, which has already been served)
Todd Forager: Wait a minute, I just remembered. Didn't you want to ask my dad about that weird dream you had, I can't believe we forgot about that. (Todd asks as he stops eating his burger)
Toby Robinson: Oh, that... I think I've figured it out, I don't need to tell him anymore. (Toby replies nervously)
Todd Forager: You've figured it out? What do you think it means then? (Todd asks curiously)
Toby Robinson: I dunno, uh, I mean. I think it's just a manifestation of my fear, of, being surrounded by people, and explosions... I think. (Toby nervously explains)
Todd Forager: Oookay, dreams are weird, man. That's why I'm glad I stopped having em. (Todd tells him happily)
Toby Robinson: Wait you stopped having dreams... Do you know why? (Toby asks him)
Todd Forager: I don't know why, but I'm happy about it. You're not the only one who has weird dreams my friend, or should I call them nightmares. (Todd tells him)
Toby Robinson: Nightmares? (Toby repeats the word, feeling uneasy just by saying it)
Todd Forager: This one time I had a nightmare that all my teeth were falling out in the bathroom, and I was like trying to pick them up, and put them back in my mouth. It was really creepy, and left me terrified for weeks. (Todd explains in disgust)

Toby Robinson: That is creepy, I've had my fair share of weird dreams, but never a full on nightmare. (Toby explains with a puzzled look on his face)
Todd Forager: Then you're lucky, I would love to be able to have nice dreams again. But now, I've got nothing. (Todd says before finishing his burger)
Toby Robinson: I doubt it's a permanent thing, you will have nice dreams again. (Toby tells him with smile)
Todd Forager: I hope so, and hopefully without the nightmares. (Todd says before eating some of his fries)
Lerange and his band are done performing, and head to their special table while waving to the crowd. Everyone applauded as they all leave the stage, really happy with the music they shared.
Toby Robinson: I've never really thought about this before... But if there are dream beings in the dream world, that means there must also be a Nightmare world, with Nightmare Beings. (Toby realises in fear)
