The Stage is Set

Chapter 6: How the hate of life feels

Hated By Life Itself by Vocaloid and mixed with some of the lyrics by Will Stetson's English version, but I'm using Oktavia. Just a heads up, this is a little dark due to the lyrics. Just a heads up! Enjoy!

Everyone sits there in stunned silence as they wait for something to happen. Leo grunts as he pushes himself up and makes his way to the screen. He summons his spear to his side before attacking the screen. He growls in frustration as tears fill his sockets. He keeps attacking as Sirius and Gemini come and lay a hand on both of his shoulders. He stops to make sure he doesn't hurt them. He can't risk losing them again. Not again. Not ever.

"they have to give 'im back. they have to."

Gemini nods and Sirius sighs as he gets onto his knees. Leo brings a hand to where his stomach would be and lets it rest there. He softly whines before turning to hide his face in Sirius' robes. He doesn't like it when too many people see him cry. He doesn't like looks of pity. It reminds him of those moments where... He doesn't like them.

"that's a cub! they can't do that to a cub! that's one of my cubs! that's one of my hurting cubs!" His hold tightens on Sirius's robes as Gemini rubs his back.

He whimpers as Sirius just holds him closer Gemini sighs softly and joins the hug. He stays like that for a moment before remembering his other cubs. He needs his new family. He can't cling to the past for long. Leo hates it, but he isn't used to his brothers' comfort anymore. He gently pushes them away before running to Sage and Green. He holds them closer before bringing them to Grillby and pulling him over to Gemini and Sirius. He sits down and gives a soft croon to them. Grillby nods.

"He wants a family hug with his cubs and us." Leo nods and holds Sage and Green even closer. They let him and the others join in before the screen turns on.

"You." Kitsune's eyes fix onto Leo as Leo's breath hitches and he holds his cubs tighter before something dawns on him. If he continues to hold onto them as tightly, then they'll be taken with him. He doesn't want them to get hurt. "You're coming with me again."

Leo pushes his cubs away before adding his fire to keep them away. He nods at Grillby before his soul pings and he's thrown through the screen. Grillby only walks over to Green and Sage. He lowers his heat and holds them close.

Leo falls into the snow of Snowdin. He pulls himself up with his spear as his sockets are slowly covered with white pixels. Then Classic notices a leather bag on Leo's hip. He can kind of imagine that he ran away from his Au, but Classic isn't completely sure. Classic lends a hand and Leo looks at it hesitantly. Another skeleton. He isn't sure if he can trust this one like he trusts Captin. Captin was nice, but he didn't see him that often. It doesn't help that the only other experiences he's had with other skeletons ended with the death of his second child. That skeleton looked like Classic, just with his hood up.

"w-who are you? Where are we?" He studies Classic and Classic smiles down at him. He offers his hand to Leo, noticing how the other flinch back. Leo's skull moves in a way of glancing between the hand and Classic's face. He's wary of Classic. Classic hasn't attacked him, but he can't be too sure that he's safe.

"nice to meetcha, bud. i'm sans, sans the skeleton, but call me Classic. what's your name?" Leo stands up, he's taller than Classic. He holds onto his spear as he wipes his face and he looks down.

"Leo. My name is Leo." Classic quirks an eyebrow ridge at his font. Leo notices before hurrying to clear up the confusion. "My font name is Comic Sans. But, I'm known as Leo."

He brings a hand to his chest as he coughs up more blood. He's used too much magic just getting here. He needs to eat something or even just sleep, anything to regain some magic. Classic's eye sockets widen. He's only coughed up blood when he's been hit in his fights. He's not entirely sure how Leo's world works, so he isn't sure if he would dist or not. Best to heal him and help him regain his energy.
