Toby and his small army of dream beings charge forward as one, a unified force bearing down on the Mad Man with their combined might. But with a sinister smile plastered on his face the psychopath takes action against this, his hands moving incredibly fast and slamming into the ground with enough force to send a shockwave through the air, stopping everyone in their tracks.
The ground beneath their feet begins to change it's colour, a yellow hue that emits an ominous light, and soon multiple creatures begin to materialize from that light, slowly taking shape around everyone there.
Mad Man: You're not the only one with an army, Dreamer! Let's have an all out war! (The Mad Man yelled as all his summons fully take shape, hundreds of humanoid creatures surrounding Toby and his dream beings, completely outnumbering them)
[You Have Encountered An Army Of Partial Dream Beings]
[Be Wary, These Dream Beings Have Been Corrupted]
These were the dream beings that Toby first encountered in this domain. But now they weren't acting or looking normal at all, they were more like savages.
Toby Robinson: Dammit, we're surrounded! How could I let this happen? (Toby blames himself for falling into this trap, thinking he should have realized that the psychopath was up to something, but what could he have done to stop this from happening)
Big Papa Bear: Boss! What do we do?! (The big man asked, for he and his men were also surrounded)
Toby Robinson: Just fight! We're gonna fight our way out of this! (Toby yells before leaping forward with his dream sword, cutting down any savage dream being on his path to the Mad Man)... Once I take him down, this fight is over. (Toby thought to himself, this being his only chance to make it out of this domain alive)
Big Papa Bear: You heard the man! Mow them down! (Big Papa Bear bellows before charging into battle with his gang, showing absolutely no fear as he begins to brawl)
Cheetah Woman: Show no mercy! (Cheetah Woman ordered her goons, before leaping into battle with the corrupted dream beings)
"Roar!!!" (Browny roars as he rips apart the enemy, using only his energized claws, and his bone crushing teeth, his brutality knowing no bounds)
Toby is also fighting with everything he's got. The Corrupted Dream Beings, although Partial, posses an incredible amount of strength, which could match or even surpass the strength of a low grade dream being. This means that the corruption makes them stronger, but the dream sword is still able to cut them down with little difficulty.

"Roar!!!" (Browny roared as he tore through the corrupted dream beings in his way, before running towards Toby earnestly)
Toby Robinson: I need to do something very important, please protect me. (Toby explains to Browny as he arrives)
"Huff!" (Browny sounded in annoyance, but he still stands guard over Toby, swiping at any corrupted dream being that dares come close)

Toby Robinson: Alright! Thanks for your help, Browny. But now I've got this! Activate, Cheetah Speed! (Toby yells as he activated one of his empowerment skills)
[Cheetah Speed Activated]
Toby's eyes turn yellow and his perception of time slows down to a crawl, his body and mind now able move and react to everything, because he now has super speed.
Toby Robinson: Awesome... Sauce! (Toby yells before he sped forward, slicing and dicing as many corrupted dream beings as he can with his newly acquired speed)
The corrupted dream beings are now dropping like flies, much to the amusement of the Mad Man, who is watching all of this in absolute bliss.
Mad Man: Splendid, absolutely splendid! I need more, please show me more! (The Mad Man yells before summoning more of his corrupted dream beings)
Toby and his dream beings are once again outnumbered by the enemy. But the young dreamer has a good solution for this problem, and quickly levels the playing field.
Toby Robinson: Activate, Big Bear Gang! (Toby yells out, several figures begining to materialize around him)
[Big Bear Gang Activated]
Toby summons his very own gang of delinquents, clad in black leather jackets, their faces defiant and rebellious, ready to take down any one stupid enough to cross them. The young dreamer's eyes widen in shock and awe, now in charge of his own squad of troublemakers.

[Skills: Partial Cheetah Speed]
"Say the word boss, and we start putting these freaks in the ground!" (One of gang members tells him, his fist connecting with the palm of his hand)
Toby Robinson: Give em hell. (Toby gives the order, a big smile plastered on his face)
"Right!!!" (The gang of twelve low grades yell before joining the battle against the corrupted dream beings, their help greatly appreciated)
Cheetah Woman: Sir, the enemy is getting away! (Cheetah Woman yells, pointing at the fleeing Mad Man in the distance)
Toby turns and sees the psychopath running into the police building, trying to escape it seems. He is about to give chase, but several corrupted dream beings stand in his way.
[Big Papa Bear Has Activated Big Bear Muscles]
Big Papa Bear: Get out of his way! (Big Papa Bear bellows as he punches away the savages blocking Toby's path)
Toby Robinson: Thanks. (Toby tells him)
Big Papa Bear: Don't sweat it. Just leave this to us, and take down that ugly bastard! (Big Papa Bear tells him before rushing forward, clearing a path for the young dreamer)
Toby Robinson: I will! (Toby said with determination in his words and heart, using this resolve he speeds forward without hesitation, evading the corrupted as he chases after the Mad Man)
Toby reaches the police building and goes in with his enhanced speed, running up the stairs so fast that he seems to be a blur. He's not just physically fast, his mind is also working at super speed, able to plan for multiple scenarios, just in case the psychopath has more tricks up his sleeve.
Toby Robinson: I know why he's running. He must be out of options and just trying to get away. Corrupting so many dream beings must have drained a lot of his power, leaving him in a weakened state. (Toby said out loud, waiting to see if his assumption is correct)
[+1 Knowledge Point]
[207/1000 Knowledge Points]
Toby Robinson: Ain't that the truth! (Toby said with a smile at the realization, that it's time to end this fight)
The Mad Man is already at the top of the stairs, and is about to open the door leading to the roof of the building.
Toby Robinson: Oh no you don't! (Toby yells as he jumps up, kicking the psychopath in the back and launching him straight through the metal door)
The Mad Man crashes down on the ground with bone shattering impact, the damage to his body making him leak red energy particles, his life force slowly fading away.
Mad Man: (Giggles sinisterly) Are you gonna kill me now, Dreamer? Or will you make me your slave like the others? (The psychopath asks from the ground, his body still limp as he is bleeding red energy particles)
Toby Robinson: Don't be weird, dude. And I have more than enough dream beings. I'm just gonna kill you now. (Toby tells him before raising his dream sword, ready to finish off this deranged lunatic of a dream being)
But before Toby could bring down his blade, his heart suddenly felt very heavy, almost like it was about to drop out of his chest. Toby held his chest in agony, dropping the dream sword in the process.
Toby Robinson: What's... happening?! (Toby cries out in agony, unable to bear this immense pain he felt)
Using only his sheer force of will, the Mad man forces his body to get back on it's feet, the sounds of his bones popping back into place truly sickening to hear.
Mad Man: I have no Idea what's wrong with you, Dreamer... Guess today is just my lucky day! (The Mad Man said with a laugh, his hand squeezing into a fist as he swung his arm back, and with one swift motion he knocks Toby's lights out)
Next: Death Of A Dream.
