#BlameTheSculk

^-------------^

Shelby's POV:
This sculk has gotten so out of hand, how could've I yelled at Katherine, my girlfriend for Saint Pearl's sake! (like for gods sake but you get the idea)

This is bad, this ia bad....I panicked while riding my broom home, or is it?

She did promise to help but ignored me like one if her problems, she doesn't deserve me.

Wait what, these thoughts are too much, I said putting my hands on my face out of shock......just to realise theres more of the gooey sculk on them.

I took a closer look at my hand "Jeez is my hand actually turning....." I asked....well no one in particular since I left Tortoise back at the Evermore, even though he wanted to see Katherine, he was afraid to go under my hat for some reason?

I took one more look at my hand untill I saw that my skin looked lifeless and stained blue......what can I do with this new found ability?

No I need to cure this before I do something bad again.

I arrived back to my house and turned on all the lights "Ow, oh wow that's bright!" since when are these lights so annoying!

"Ribbit!" Tortoise said as he jumped into my arms for a small hug.

"Hey buddy good to see you too!" I patted his head and he enjoyed it, but making an uncomfortable frown after a few seconds

"Ribbit! Ribbit?"

"Yeah I'm okay just got a bit more sculk."

"Ribbit?"

"No Katherine forgot I had sculk."

He then gave me a bored look as usual as if trying to say "Really?"

"Don't look at me like that sir."

"Ribbit, ribbit" (translation: what did you tell her now?)

"I broke up with her, why do you care anyway!" I said crossing my arms

"Ribbit!" he said sounding very offended

"I wasn't head over heals!" this little guy was pushing it too far by now.

"Ribbit" he said quite scared

"What my eyes are blue?" I said noticing how scared he looked "I'm sorry buddy" I said comming closer to him but my sculk dripped next to him and he jumped away.

"Ribbit, Ribbit!" he croaked louder (translation: stay there I'll find some help)

"I'm fine! I don't need your help!" I yelled as it echoed like before.

"Ribbit, ribbit ribbit!" (you're not being yourself)

"I'm exactly what I'm supposed to be, you're acting just like her! Go! Now." I felt the sculk grow even more as my vision started bluring in blue, Tortoise started shaking a little but I calmed down for a second and sat on the floor, he just jumped out of the window.

"Great another traitort." I laid back on the floor as I heard the sculk grow on my head

"I don't need him anyway, I don't need anyone!"

The poor toad has been going alone by himself for a few hours by now, hopping through the nether portals with his face grumpier than usual "Ribbit, ribbit, Ribbit!" (stupid humans, how could they not understand me!) he croaked angrily

His expression soon changed from angry to worried as he was in front of his last chance to help his owner, the portal for Glimmer Grove.

Took him some time but the toad eventually got to the castle.

Upon arriving at the building he saw the person he was looking for; Princess Katherine, who was pacing back and fourth with a worried expression.

"Ribbit!" (Katherine!) he croaked excitedly, if it was a different occasion he would definitely spend time talking with his second favourite person, right after Shelby.

"Tortoise buddy I'm so glad to see you! What happened to her, is she alright? What's up with sculk?! Please tell me she's alright!" Katherine said sitting on her knees to look at Tortoise, tears forming in her eyes.

But Tortoise couldn't respond, he just got a sad and uneasy expression before jumping into Katherine's arms

"Ribbit ribbit." (no, she's almost fully in sculk)

"Don't worry we'll bring her back and until then I'll take care of you, okay bud?"

He just croaked in a cheerfull-ish tone and jumped on Katherine's head

"Ribbit" (Hehe- in a cheeky way) he said with his usual face expression

"An old habit huh?"
