The Bad Kids

Looking for new recruits

After they had there first meeting they went on their own ways, Crescent and Angst left the castel to search for new recruits in their group while Merciless stayed to ask the kids there.

{Merciless pov}
I was walking around the Castel to find new members for our group. Guess the others thought I was just bored or something. I walked by the kitchen and saw Calavera(authors ship child) cooking with Horror and thought about it but then bursted into fits of quite laughter, "hahahaha! T-There is no way...pfft- little miss daddy's girl is gonna join-" I thought

There was just no way!
She adores both her parents even though they treat her like she doesn't exist. Dumb girl. Well she's a no. We shouldn't tell her at all about this she might tell father or someone else and that can't be allowed.

I walked around a bit more and didn't see much until I saw Sprinkle. Sprinkle is instresting he doesn't hate his parents but they definitely aren't good, only Mister Blue is. But even then they aren't bad by any means so he probably won't join, but...maybe we could use him later on. That thought lingered in my mind but I didn't have time to think right now only find some members-

Nightmare:"what are you doing?."

"!- F-Father?! Geez. You scared the shit out of me."

Nightmare:"not answering my question. Why are you walking around the whole Castel and staring at Sprinkle instead of training?."

"I already trained with Crescent and Angst. And so I think we deserve a break. And I wasn't staring at Sprinkle I was-..staring at the radio one of my favorite songs is about to play."

I lied but the training part was true. I didn't wanna train right now.

Nightmare:"you dumb brat. Your training right now. I don't care if you did it earlier."

"..ugh. fiiine."

I had no choice but to agree. I hated it and didn't get a single new recruit. Wonder of Crescent and Angst got one.

{With Crescent and Angst}

They walked around some aus looking for some kids, many people already knew them as Nightmares children so they got far away from them.

Crescent pov:"Pathetic."

Crescent thought, the kept searching until they saw Palette, at first they didn't care and where about to continue the search, that is...if Palette wasn't crying.

Angst:"we should go see what's wrong. It may help us. We could gaslight him to join us."

Crescent:"dark much?."

Angst:"got a better idea? We've been searching for almost two hours and this is the best we could find."

Crescent:"that's true. I swear if he's crying about something dumb I'm gonna kill him."

Hopefully Crescent didn't actually mean that-
They went up to the crying Palette and asked what was wrong, at first Palette was silent but then started to cry more.

Palette:"Dad...he-he forgot about me..And I don't know where my other dad! I'm lost!"

They didn't expect that, Palette always seemed to have such loving parents.

Crescent:"oh."

Palette:"i-its not new but...no ones here right now! How will I find them?!"

Palette cried more, this gave Crescent an idea.

Crescent:"so. This is normal?"

Palette sadly nodded

Palette:"y-yeah.."

Crescent:"would you like it to stop?. Stop your father from forgetting you so much?."

Palette:"o-of course I would but there's no way..he forgets everything.."

Crescent:"we can help with that. All you have to do is join us."

Palette sniffed he's tear stopped but the stains where still visible as he seemed Close to crying again

Palette:"j-join you...? but Join what..?"

Angst:"our group. The bad kids. Together will prove ourselves to our no good parents and get revenge on them. Will make sure your dad never forgets you again."

Palette:"r-really..?"

Palette seemed hopefully but that changed as his thoughts started racing

Palette:"n-no..my other dad! If he finds out he might hate me.."

Crescent:"so they want you to be purely good. Bullshit. This proves our point."

Angst:"Palette. Let us help you. Dream doesn't have to find out and you'll other one will never forget you again."

Palette stopped crying completely and thought about it

Palette pov:"should I...? This seems so wrong..but..I don't wanna keep living like this..keep being forgotten.."

With a deep breath Palette looked at Crescent and Angst and said

Palette:"ok. I'm in."
