Roxy POV

"Mommy no!" My twin brother yells as Blakk punches my pregnant mother.
"You know nothing brat." He punches him into the wall. "Timmy!" I yell in fear as I run to help him up only for the same thing to happen to me.
"Your a little bitch like your mother!" He spats as he continues to hit her.
Some time later he stops and leaves us laying there all of us trembling in fear all of us except Timmy.
"Tim!" My mother staggers to him. He touches his wrist as more tears fall from her face.
"No! My precious little boy!" He sobs as she holds him close.
His green and blue heterochromic
eyes stare into the ceiling of the basement unseeing.
"Mommy why isn't he waking up?" My 4 year old body asks to her.
"Tim." She sobs as she pulls me closer. Only then did I realize. Timmy is dead. Timmy isn't waking up.

I jerk my body awake. "Tim" I choke back a sob. "I'm so sorry I couldn't save you." I soon fail as they fall from my face. "I'm so sorry." I shake my head.

"Roxy?" Tad says still half asleep. "I'm fine. Please go back to sleep." I see the Lumino light just starting to brighten up for the day.

Everyone is asleep in the living area. Twist lays on the other couch with Loki and some random slugs that wandered here.

Eli lays mumbling in his sleep in the far corner by himself.

Trixie lay close to Kord and Pronto for safety.

Junjie is no where to be seen. It has my heart racing with fear. I stand up and walk ,more like quietly ran, up upstairs.

"Junjie are you up here?" I see him staring out the window at the end of the hall.

"Are you alright? You seem frightened." He turns from the window. "I didn't see you downstairs. I was just making sure nothing had happened to you." I clutch my trembling hands.

"Why have you been crying? Nightmares from the GoonDoc?" I shake my head. "I really don't want to talk about it."

I turn away from him. "I'm going outside for a bit. I'm glad your alright." I walk with feather like steps until I reach the door leading to outside.

Eli stands over the sink trembling like a leaf. I find myself walking over to him. "Eli?" I call out waiting to see if I can come closer.

He doesn't say anything. It's like he doesn't even know I'm here. "Eli are you okay?" I take half a step forward before he turns.

He looks at me with terrified eyes before hugging me tightly. I don't say anything. I just stand there rubbing his back as he hugs me.

"Shhh. It's going to be alright" I whisper.

"Ev-everyone w-was de-de-dead." He stutters. "It's okay. Everyone is safe. Junjie is upstairs looking out the window and everyone else is asleep."
My own voice shakes as I remember the nightmare I had.

"Did you have a nightmare?" He pulls away so he can look me in the eyes. I notice that his breathing has returned to normal. "It was when I was 4." I answer him as more salty tears spill.

"Hey, whatever happened. Your safe here with us... with me. I'm not letting anything happen to you." He kisses my forehead before hugging me again.

I don't know how long we stand there but we eventually pull away. I move away embarrassed.

"Sorry about that." We say at the same time. My face flushes scarlet as I turn away.

"I meant what I said earlier." Eli says sincerely. "Your safe here with us... with me. I'm not letting anything happen to you." I replay the words in my mind.

"I know." I say with a smile before walking outside to practice.

Eli POV

Agh I can't believe I did that. I just... it.

Eli what's wrong. Burpy chips from the counter top. "Nothing Burp. Just a bad dream."

I don't believe you. His eyes narrow as he moves forward. "It's really nothing." I hear slug fire. "Infurnus" I snap up. How did you know that? Burpy looks up with curious eyes.

"I don't know Burpy." I force my legs to move me out the door. Outside Joo-Joo is flying circles around Roxy as the grass turns blue with her every foot step.

She does a double back flip as Joo-Joo's flames turn blue and she lands on his back.

"Woah" I breath out. "Incredible is it?" Junjie asks from beside me. "Yeah. How did she do that?"

"Updraft? I have been riding Joo-Joo since I was six years of age." He states as Joo-Joo and Roxy come down from the sky.

"That was fun." She giggles as she offers Joo-Joo her palm

"How long have you guys been out here?" She says in surprise. "Just long enough. That was preety cool you know. The double backflip and the updraft move." I almost stutter.

"Well thanks." She hands Joo-Joo to Junjie. That was fun. I hear Joo-Joo say before my ears begin to ring.

I shake my head side to side as I cover my ears.

"Eli are you alright?" Roxy's voice changes pitch. "Should be." I remove my hands.

"I should tell you both something." I stand back up embarrassed. "I can understand the Slugs."

Twist POV

Eli is trying to take Roxy from me. I can't believe she isn't pushing him away.

I watch him hold her in his arms as she cries.

I should be the one holding her not him.

I could have gotten up but I couldn't find myself to.

She might be happier with him than me. He is a hero while I'm the one who tried to kill him.

I look away in shame as I fall back asleep.

Will Shane

The environment around me is different shades of red. The dark red liquid I found out was DarkWater from my captivity of the DarkBane.

"Will Shane my new host." I dark slug jumps from above and lands on me still in velocity.

My vision blurs until it comes back. "What just happened?" I say but none of my words come out.

"Will Shane, I thought you would have been more of a fight." He taunts me as my mind becomes more muddled.

"What are you doing to me?" I struggle to ask. "I need the protector of the central realm. My creator and I acquire a new throne hall."

My head begins to ache as I begin to slip further away. "Now let's see. Your son... I've meet him... such a strong mind. A mind I would have if it weren't for Roxanne Blakk."

"What did you do to my son?" I grit my teeth. "The girl gave me her mind instead but broke free. Such strong broken mind. Such abuse over the years. Matter not... you won't have a mind to think over it."

"That girl..." With my last conscious moments I remember the little girl on the cliff that saved my life. That girl was Roxanne Blakk.
