Chaos's POV

"I found juice boxes!" I exclaim taking out several juice boxes.

"Child," Ranboo says, as I struggle to stick the straw in. I cassually flip him off after I get the straw in. He responds the same.

"Am not!"

"Are to!"

"You aren't that much older than me! Therefore you are also a child!"

"Touche, touche," Ranboo responds squinting at me in defeat. "Hey I am an adult!"

"Are you? Are you really?"

"Legally yes."

"Can you drink?"

"No-"

"Therefore, a child,"

"You can't legally drink either!"

I drink my juice box in defeat. We continue to pack some snacks and some sweaters in the shulker boxes.

"Ready?"

"Yes, but no."

3rd Person POV

The two went outside. Chaos grabbed Ranboo's wrist and threw a rocket into the air. Their whole journey was a lot of screaming in terror, as Ranboo kept getting dropped, and Chaos kept dropping Ranboo on accident. The twelve rulers were slightly concerned for the two when they flew over them, well all except the ones who don't deal with Chaos's chaos on a daily basis.

After a good while of flying, and screaming, they land in Crystal Cliffs, and by that, Chaos dropped Ranboo who teleported on to the ground and Chaos crashed into the ground.

Ranboo's POV

"I want to ask, is there a safer way of travel?" I ask, helping Chaos up.

"There is yes," Chaos responds dusting themselves off. "The nether, but it's scary in there, and I haven't been in there in 5 years."

"Can take the nether next time?"

"Yeah."

"So where's this school?"

"Well, technically its called an academy for magic, but academy, school same thing. And its over there. Don't mind the pillagers, they're learning magic and how to be civil." Chaos responds pointing over to a building.

We walk over there and Chaos sets down their shulker, taking out their sweater. I head inside and start looking at all the photos on the wall in the front entrance.

There are several of groups of people all seeming to be around the same age, just different years. A photo caught my eye. I walk over to it and look at it. It looks to be a younger Techno? and several smaller kids, around the same ages as everyone else in the photos.

"We were ten.... in that photo," Chaos said slowly and sorrowful. "It was the week... before they went missing... we had just finished and graduated from the academy... We were going to move onto learning in the Grimlands."

"Who's in the photo?" I ask quietly.

"Lani, Drista, Minty, Nova, and Nova's older brother Techno... after... after Lani's older brother went missing a few years before, Techno promised himself and us that, he would be there for us... guess loosing Tubbo really hurt him. We were all basically his younger siblings, though he would never admit it. He went looking for them after he found out they disappeared... haven't seen any of them since... useless promise now... kind of wish Gem would take that photo down... it only brings a reminder of the pain."
