" Am I seeing things? " ( Phighting AU )

Less asking, more talking

  Ade and Dylan runs towards Ade's house, they pant at the house's entrance.

" What the heck was that? " Dylan says to Ade, who is checking the surroundings. " Did they follow us? "

" No... " Ade replies. Dylan stands up and stretches his arms, he looks at the entrance and his friend.

" Ade, I think we should talk about this situation inside. I don't know what things you're seeing, but I bet they can hear us talking out here. "

Ade opens the door and enters it, along with Dylan. He opens the lights to the living room. His friend looks around the house in amazement.

" Wow, I never went to your house for a loong time. When was it, 4 years ago? "

" Yes, 4 years ago. " Ade replies.

Dylan opens the work cabinets and starts to search for things that he could use for investigation. He takes out some paper, a pencil and an eraser. He puts them on the dining table where Ade is sitting.

" About those things, can you give me their appearance? If not, then... maybe some unique things about them? "

Ade takes the pencil and starts to draw the things he has seen before this, while Dylan observes the drawings, trying to not get distracted by the television. A few minutes, Ade gives the paper to his friend.

He takes a look at the paper and wows in amazement.

" Dang, these things you're seeing is beautiful! "

" Beautiful? "

" They wear cool and pretty clothes! "

" But did you see the horns on their heads? "

" Oh wait- "

Dylan takes a closer look again.

" I've never seen this kind of ghost before... " Dylan says in confusion. " Maybe they are a new kind? "

The two goes quiet for a while, Ade is thinking if he should've keep calm when that thing walks to him, while his friend thinks about the new kind of ghosts.

Meanwhile at the empty town,

" Shuri! Why did you scare them off? "
Slingshot goes to Shuriken, who is feeling a bit bad.

" I just wanted to meet them... "

Slingshot looks at Vine Staff, who is trying to support him, then looks back at Shuriken.

" It's ok, Shuri. I guess it is a good thing that they are scared, I've heard that Subspace came here to meet them. " Slingshot looks at Shuriken in fear. " And I can guarantee that it will not end well for them. "

" Sling? Where did you get that information? "

" ... I got it from Rocket's dad. "

" Ok? "

" Come on, let's go back. "

Back to Ade and Dylan, Dylan is sleeping on the table, and Ade almost faints due to tiredness. He stands up to grab an extra pillow and blanket for his friend.

At the bedroom, he finds a note on the table. He reads the note, and gets confused for a bit.

" I will help you if you are hurt. " The note says. He puts back the note on the table and takes the pillow and a blanket. He goes back downstairs, he carefully puts the pillow under his friend's head and puts the blanket over him.

He yawns a bit, he goes to the bathroom to brush his teeth and changes into his pajamas. He goes to the bedroom and lays down on the bed to sleep.

A few minutes later, the house door quietly opens as a figure walks into the house. He takes a look at Dylan and checks up for any injuries before heading straight to the bedroom. Ade is still sleeping, not knowing about the stranger approaching him.

The stranger observes him for a while before he starts his checkup on Ade. After a few minutes, the stranger leaves the room and closes the door carefully. The stranger walks past Dylan, who is about to fall off the table.

Swift as the wind, the stranger catches his fall and carefully puts him back on the table. He rubs his head and walks out of the house, closing the house door.

The next day, Dylan immediately wakes up from a dream he's having and looks at Ade preparing breakfast.

" Good morning, Dylan. I made some pancakes, since you like them. "

" Awwh, thank you- wait, did I sleep? "

" Yup, you just fainted after a few minutes. Did you drink a lot of coffee? "
Dylan looks side to side, hiding the fact he likes coffee. Ade chuckles before he puts the chocolate malt drink on the table. Dylan yawns before realizing what happens last night.

" Ade, have you noticed something weird while we're sleeping? "

" What is it? "

" Last night, in my dream, I was falling down, maybe because I'm scared, and then I felt a hug and I went back on the surface. "

Ade realizes about it.

" I also felt someone while I was sleeping... "

The two look at each other in realization. Dylan starts to become scared, Ade pats him so he could calm down.

" I think that guy is the one who wrote that note... "

" What note? "

Ade runs to his bedroom to take the note and brings it to Dylan. Dylan looks at the note in suspicion.

" I will help you if you are hurt? Is this guy a doctor, but it doesn't make sense too... "

Dylan tries to think more, but his head can't think of anything. Ade pushes the pancakes and the choco malt drink to him.

" Here, drink this, it will make your mind energized. "

He drinks the malt drink, still, his mind can't concentrate.

" Ughh, this is hard... It feels just like my examinations... "

" Did you study for those? "

" ... No. "

Ade laughs quietly for a while and looks back on the note. ( Does he know me? Why would he come inside my house to leave this note? ) He thinks about it.

" yawns Ade, I'm going back home. Thank you for letting me stay here for the night. "

" Anytime, Dylan. "

Dylan waves at Ade before he starts his way back to his home. In the house, Ade's phone rings. He looks and notices an unknown number in his chat. The person tells him to come to the cafe at 5 am. Ade wants to block this number, but looking at the condition, he has no choice but to go there.

" Might as well bring Dylan along... "
