Toby and Browny are now in a very strange place, stranger than they've ever been before. This domain is completely made of butter, which stretches out as far as the eye can see.
Toby Robinson: Is this butter? (Toby asks as he summoned his dream sword, using it to stab into the buttery substance)... Mmhmm, that's butter alright. (Toby said after tasting the butter off the sword)
Browny tries to move forward, but although the ground seems solid, it is very slippery.
"Huff!" (Browny sounded as he struggles to maintain his balance on the slippery ground)
Toby Robinson: Woah! Take it easy! (Toby yells as he holds onto Browny's fur, trying to not fall off his back)
"Huff!" (Browny sounded after finally managing to maintain some balance)
Toby Robinson: I don't like it too, buddy. Let's just get out of here. (Toby tells him, ready to leave this domain)
"Soft Growl" (Browny sounded before trying to move, but his body refuses to move for some reason, and he keeps trying to no avail)
Toby Robinson: What's wrong, why can't you move? (Toby asks before checking for himself, seeing the cause of the problem)
Browny's paws have begun to sink into the butter, making him unable to move from where he stood. He gets angry and tries harder to free himself, but that just makes him sink a little bit faster.
Toby Robinson: Okay, this is bad, really bad. Can't you just lick your way out or something? (Toby asks him desperately)
[Browny Has Activated His Terror Claws]
"Roar!" (Browny roars in anger, his paws now burning red as he fiercely tries to escape from this predicament)... Growl! (Browny sounded after wearing himself out, his failed attempt only resulting in him getting stuck deeper into the butter)
Toby Robinson: Okay, stop trying you're only making it worse. Just stay completely still while I think of something.... Uhhhhh. (Toby sounded as he searches for something that can help him free Browny, but there is only butter)... Okay I've got nothing. (Toby admitted after much consideration)
"Growl! (Browny sounded in anger)
Toby Robinson: Don't worry I'll figure something out... (Chuckles) It's a good thing we're not getting attacked right now, huh? (Toby asks with a smile, not taking it all too seriously)
Just then something could be seen coming from the distance. Toby cannot see what's coming clearly at first, but once it gets closer it becomes obvious what exactly he's looking at, and it is a large army of giant freaking ants.
[You Have Encountered Multiple Partial Dream Beings]
[Name: Butter Ant]
[Race: Partial Dream Being]
[Level: Very Low Grade Dream Being]
[Skills: Power Bite]
Toby Robinson: Huh, what do you know, it really is bad to say stuff like that. (Toby said with a nervous smile, sitting helpless on Browny's back as the army of ants advances ever closer to them)
The ants move fast and quickly reach them, but don't attack right away, instead they run circles around Toby and Browny, keeping them at the centre of a big circle, which brings back memories of when they fought the Eews.
But this time Browny is stuck in butter, and Toby can't get off to help either, they're sitting ducks in this situation. Some of the ants move in, and Browny can do nothing to stop them as they bite into him with their big mandibles.
"Roar!!!" (Browny sounded in great pain, unable to do anything but struggle to shake them off)
Toby Robinson: Don't worry, Browny! (Toby yells as he easily cuts down the ants with his dream sword)... I've got you! (Toby says as he continues to fight off the ants)

Toby Robinson: This is so not worth the effort... We need to get out of here! (Toby thought to himself)... But how? (Toby contemplated while still fighting off the ants)
The Butter Ants were easy to kill and this should normally be an easy win for them, but the problem is that Toby couldn't get off the back of Browny, and Browny couldn't get off the buttery ground. Sooner or later Browny would sink into the butter, and then it will be the teenager turn to suffer the same fate.

Toby Robinson: Ow!!! Get off me! (Toby yells as he cuts down the ants that were nibbling on his legs, killing them instantly)... Okay that's it! Dream Shield! (Toby said as he summons his dream shield)
[Browny Has Been Injured]
Toby Robinson: Leave us alone! (Toby shouts as he slams the shield on the back of Browny, producing a shockwave that pushes all the ants back)... I really hope this works. (Toby says as he places the shield on top of Browny's back, and then stands on the shield, making sure to balance himself properly)
A larger wave of ants moves in to attack and devour them, meaning it's time for Toby to set his crazy plan into motion.
Toby Robinson: Tamed Holding! (Toby activates the tamed holding skill)
[Tamed Holding Activated]
Browny's body breaks apart quickly, turning into a million particles of blue light, which all enters Toby's body. With him gone Toby falls to the buttery ground below, but he already has a shield at his feet to land on.
The shield doesn't sink into the butter, rather it starts to slide forward, taking Toby along for the ride. Toby uses the dream shield to surf on the dunes of butter, moving past all the ants at incredible speeds.
Toby Robinson: Woah, woah, woah!!! (Toby yells as he struggles to maintain his balance while moving so fast)
The butter ants are chasing after him, but he's moving at a speed that they can't even hope to keep up with, and the teenager quickly loses them.
Toby Robinson: This is kinda fun, maybe I should try surfing one of these days. (Toby thought with a smile)... But I'll have to get out of here first... Release! (Toby says as he stretches out a hand)
[Tamed Holding Deactivated]
Browny immediately rematerializes in front of Toby, and the teenager then jumps off the dream shield and lands on top of the bear's back.
Toby Robinson: Let's go! Let's go! Let's go! (Toby hurries him)
[Browny Has Activated His Terror Charge]
Browny's fur begins to glow red, for he is increasing his power with terror energy. With this boost in power Browny is able to run much faster, not letting his paws sink into the butter this time.
The landscape around them slowly begins to change, meaning they would soon leave this domain and enter another. But just then a swarm of ants could be seen off in the distance, they were quickening their pace, trying to catch up with them. But it is already too late, there is no possible way for the ants to reach Toby and Browny before they leave this domain.
Toby Robinson: (Chuckles) Nice, very nice.(Toby says with a smile, seeing all the ants moving together as a large group)... It's pay back time, boys... Dream Beam! (Toby yells as his eyes begin to charge up with dream energy)
[Dream Beam Activated]
[-44 Secondary Dream Points]
[56 Secondary Dream Points]
Toby then blasts the dream beams from his eyes, decimating scores of ants in the process.
