Child of Creation

3: A Peaceful Night

Once Time, Elemental, Rainbow and Sabre got back to the Rainbow hub, the sun was setting, showing off beautiful oranges and reds as it fell below the horizon. Blue Steve was probably already in his house either asleep or getting ready for bed. Elemental, who had been running around at the orange village all day, yawned, which Time being the big brother he is noticed. "Well, I think it's time we head off for the night. Come on, Elemental", Time beckoned Elemental to follow him to their house, to which Elemental complied but grumbled that he wasn't tired. Sabre chuckled as he watched them walk off and Rainbow Steve just smiled. Rainbow then turned to Sabre, "hey, I'm gonna do some late night fishing, the river's beautiful at night. You wanna join me?". Sabre smiled,

"Nah, I think I'll just go walk for a bit before bed", to which Rainbow gave a smile and a quick ok before going off to the dock by the river to get a fishing rod. Sabre smiled while watching this. It's so odd. Both this Rainbow steve and the one from steve saga have so much in common. They both are very energetic, both love fishing, and love how the river looks at night, with all the stars reflected in the water... Sabres smiled faded. He missed the old Rainbow. He missed the Rainbow town, and all the Steve's that were in the steve saga... Sabre shook it off, not wanting to think about it and walked into the forest.

The Forest was quiet tonight, but it still had the odd chirp and cricket here and there. It was something that Sabre loved about the forest at night. So peaceful and quiet but still full of life and movement. But then, Sabre heard a chirp that wasn't the same as the other birds in the forest. This one was slightly distorted in a way... He looked up and smiled, seeing the same darkness bird they had seen at the orange village. "Nova!", Sabre called happily, in which the bird responded with a just as happy chirp and flew down, landing on sabres shoulder. "How are you? Are you okay?", Sabre cooed to the bird while petting it, referring to when Rainbow had almost hit the bird with lightning earlier. The bird, in response just made a small chirp like rumbling sound, almost like a cat purring. The bird had always had characteristics of a cat, since it wasn't fully just a bird. Sabre smiled at this, "It's okay, it wasn't rainbows fault, he didn't know...". After a bit, Sabre stopped petting the bird and looked to the sky. He could see the stars clearly through gaps between the leaves, but that didn't make it any less dark, and he'd prefer not to get attacked by any mobs tonight. "Well, I think I should make my leave now..", Sabre said to the bird, to which it chirped sadly but still flew back up into the canopy, knowing it couldn't come with him to the Rainbow Hub. Sabre smiled, watching it disappear into the shadows, then turned and started his walk back to the Rainbow Hub.

Sabre stepped out from the canopy of trees and into the clearing that was the Rainbow Hub. It was much easier to see here, since the moon was directly visible on top of the Rainbow Hub in the sky. Sabre started to walk back to his house, but stopped once he noticed and colourful figure at the docks leaning on a poll, a fishing rod in hand. Smiling, Sabre began to walk up to him. "Rainbow!", Sabre called, but when he got no response walked a bit faster, almost jogging up to him. "Rainbow?", Sabre said a bit more softly, and when he got close enough, he noticed his friend had fallen fast asleep, fishing rod in hand. Sabre sighed at this, and gently took the fishing rod out of Rainbow's hands and placed it gently on the ground next to him, then picked up Rainbow and started carrying him to the house Rainbow had made for them in the Rainbow hub. He remembered doing this almost every night with the Rainbow from steve saga, since he almost always insisted on looking at the river when the sky was clear enough. When he was sure Rainbow was properly tucked into his bed, he went back out to put the fishing rod away. When he got there, he grabbed the fishing rod but stopped when noticing he reflection. He looked at it for a few seconds, tempted to take his blindfold off, but decided against it, as the hairs on the back of his neck raised at the feeling that someone was watching him. After that, he quickly got up, put the fishing rod away and went back to the house to go to bed, wondering what adventure tomorrow would bring...
