 "Err-"

  Wow, what is happening to me?

After that I wake up. I seemed to be in the tent that Cross moved me in.

  My head hurts.

  I slowly get up and my head seems to pound even worse.

  "..."

  Despite my attempt to say something I couldn't.

  I frowned and stepped out of the tent gripping my head hoping that I don't fall and crack my skull open.

  My preccius dotter Virgo woke up and straightened me out so that I can walk.

  Cross and that other guy who looks like 404 come closer. Cross pulls a container from the range of items he held in a bag on his back then hands it to me.

  "Drink it." He says when I take it from him.

  It's contents were water and I felt a good relief wash over me even though my head throbbed even harder as a result.

  "Keep drinking, Cross you should keep him warm for the time being until I can get blankets. Boss wants you later too. Don't be late." The one with black tears groans while he walks into the supply tent.

  "Boss?" I ask curious of his answer.

  "Not important." He tells me before shoving me into his tent.

  My head turns to face a grumpy awakened Mistake.

  The agitated baby pointed their sharp spines at me.

  "I am sorry. I'll help you go to sleep." I tell them.

  I cradle the bundle of vines close to my chest while continuing to drink the rest of the water. I gave an anxious glance at my children. They were captivated by the water I was drinking.

  Confused, I moved the bottle like container to them and no more container after that.

  Their roots sucked up all the water left in the canister. Which didn't surprise me in the slightest.

  I slumped back and hummed lightly. They both came in and cuddled close so that we can take a nap.

  When I woke up it was no longer us alone in the tent.

  The 404 looking one and Nightmare are watching me in the tent sleeping and Cross is behind me wrapping around me who was awake as well.

  "Yes guys?" I ask.

  "You were muttering in your sleep." Cross says.

  "We walked by and you were screaming. Then you muttered 404." Nightmare said. "The strange thing was I couldn't open up your nightmares it was just barren space."

  I scowl and turn to the eager heads of my children whose flowers are closed signaling deep rest.

  "Were you sleeping Cross?" I ask turning around to face him.

  "I was." Crud.

  "So who is the 404 guy you were talking about?" The one that looks like him asks.

  "He's my teacher." I grunt biting my finger tip.

  I do an uncomfortable looking slouch and crane my head up. I look like a fat cat that is sitting on it's butt.

  "That is the guy who tried to kill you last time then." Cross' expression darkens.

  "Kill?" Nightmare's goop raises like an eyebrow. Oh no, I can't look away. Was it that disturbing?

  I shake my head, stand up and rest the little petals down somewhere soft.

  I can't talk more. My tail bone hurts. He must have put a spell on the mark to keep me from telling.
