"An easy flip of an card." {[A mugs story]} Vol. 1

"Walking on thin glass" Ch 1

Mugman POV:

I had an nightmare tonight...I'm not sure why or where it came from but it seemed and felt so real..and cartoon like..

My vision was blurry and it was between saving Ms,Chalice or saving my own big brother...but before I could pick any of them, I got an step closer only to trip as the devils arms wrap around me. As I felt his treating evil grin behind me...

"YOU MIGHT BE THE ONE SAVING THEM, but who would be the one saving you~"
He sung as I felt an sharp pain on my back from getting hit with his trident, as he then threw me to the ground, swinging me off to the side..

"Leave Mugman alone devil!"
Cuphead shouted, he tried to get back up from that edge of the rock he was holding onto but he couldn't pull himself up due to his large amounts of injuries..

"I can't hold on much longer Mugman!"
Miss, chalice stated, she looked in an much better state then both of us, yet for some reason she couldn't use her powers in this dream..

I tried to crawl to them but my legs could only take me so far, I tensed as I then tried to come towards both of them, but the ground shook underneath me from the devil as he had gotten mad, I nearly fell of the edge myself when I had just managed to get up, when suddenly..I knew it was all over as the devil had teleported right behind me, I looked back in panic only to hear cuphead and miss chalice had fallen into an void.

"Mugsy!"
Cuphead cried..

"Mugman!"
Miss, chalice shouted as both of there voices had started to grow fate..

I felt myself losing it..

"That didn't just happen, right?"
I mumbled questioning..

But before the devil could say anything I held my head trembling before myself as well..
"This is a dream, This isn't real, Please, this is just an dream!!"
I repeated, then suddenly..everything changed...

"If that's the case, wouldn't you rather keep it that why? If I were you, I would stay home today, ok?"
I opened my eyes to see a little sea child giggling right there in front of me. They didn't appear to look like an cartoon though..then again I don't know who they were just what they appeared to be, and why did they seem so happy? Did they not just witnessed what had happened!? But the fact that I saw them standing there in front of me, almost like they were just trying to tell me something in spirt..maybe like a spiritual guide?

"Hey! L-look I-I want you to explain to me what just happened! I-I want to know where I am and w-why does it suddenly feel..s-so...cold?"

I stated but they just stood there with a worried look on their face, but as soon as I tried to say another word..

I was interrupted by my wake...
..
.

"Oh dear....don't let the (rain)
get on him then-..."
The child stated before fading away as if it were never even mentally there..

My eyes then soon opened, that's strange, that last part seemed less then an dream yet more like an vision?..they never replied to what I had to say though..
I let my eyes adjust to opening them once again...

"H-huh!?"
I shouted as I had layed on the snowy cold ground, my brother had shook me awake and hugged me as soon as he saw my eyes opening. Funny, I never felt his shaking me till now, I never felt this cold ether.. What kind of dream was that?

I found myself outside in the cold heavy snow, I lifted my hand above my face to let my eyes adjust to looking up at the sky, the clouds were so puffy today and the snow just kept coming down..

"Quickly cuphead, get him inside!"
Ms. Chalice shouted waiting from the door, I looked at my brother as he had let go of hugging me and nodded looking back at Ms.Chalice. He then picked me up, Carrying me over his back out of the cold heavy snow, and took me inside.

When we finally got inside he sat there by the fire place as the first thing I did while trembling from freezing was warm up my hands up. I crawled near the fire pit, on my knees scudding them closer..

"I don't get it mugs, you never slept walked this bad in your life before, I wonder did something happen to you while we were away on that trip?" Cuphead stated.

That's right.. I had been home alone these past two weeks because cuphead had went on a camping trip with Ms. Chalice. They had went to the mountains, because they wanted to go stargazing together and went rock climbing aswell...

We had also moved out of elder kettles house and for the majority of the time so I had just been here with Cuphead, Sometimes Ms, Chalice had visited.
I sighed and nodded no as an late response to cuphead's question.

"How long have you been out there mugs?"  My brother questioned as I looked off to the side trying to remember..

"W-Well I r-remember...I-I r-remember?...huh.. I can't actually remember.. I-I went out there b-because..-well.. m-maybe a dog? Or was it..something I had saw?...I don't actually really know."
I stated.

—-

Ms.chalice came and placed her hand on my head..
"The milk in your head is actually frozen solid but you don't appear to of had been there for over an day..Do you remember the time you went out?"
Ms,Chalice had questioned..

I looked off to the side before falling over. It was the same feeling in the dream..Where my legs couldn't move, They felt over numbed..

"Well?"
She awaited my answer..

But I couldn't really say, it was if I just didn't know anything aside from being out in the cold, My whole body started feeling more numbed as my eyes started to close again, they felt heavy..

"W-wait...heheh..what did you ask me again?" I stated before falling completely on the ground, I couldn't hold myself up anymore, I groaned as I just layed there..

"Whoa, mugsy!"
Cuphead shouted as he came to me and placed me on his shoulder, he had throw himself to catch me. He caught me from my upper body falling not wanting me to crack my glass head..

That's when I felt everything began to freeze over, my vision went completely blurry.
I felt myself passing out from the overwhelming cold sensation.
