Yellow

Each moment a gift, a precious chance,

To nurture, protect, and teach,

In this dance of patience and grace,

A beautiful bond within reach.

It was the next morning, and Cyan and Yellow had both gotten very little sleep. After watching the stars for an undetermined amount of time, Yellow had found a very convenient nest positioned on top of one of the icy rocks.

After Yellow got Cyan up there too, the both of them had simply collapsed, falling asleep almost instantly.

The next thing Yellow knew, he was waking up in the nest, with Cyan fast asleep right next to him. He smiled at her sleeping form before standing up and stretching his arms, feeling his joints crack.

He sighed, still feeling a little tired, but overall pretty good. He glanced down at Cyan's tail. The injury still showed, but it seemed to be healing over pretty well.

Yellow decided to wait until she woke up by herself, not wanting to disturb her peaceful slumber.

He wasn't usually quite a...creep, but he found that he could watch her sleep for a long time without getting bored. However, if Cyan ever caught him doing that, then he was sure he would have a hard time explaining himself.

Eventually Cyan woke up, and Yellow helped her down from the nest. The two monsters were still a little groggy, but they managed to wake up faster because of the bright sun shining down.

They were just about to go find something to do when suddenly Cyan's stomach let out a loud growl. Cyan sheepishly laughed, but then Yellow realized that they would need to find a good food source.

He thought to himself for a moment, wondering if they could find a way to get a stable supply of food from the other Rainbow Friends or if they would have to figure something else out.

Just then, as if Yellow had summoned it, they both heard a familiar voice calling out to them. They turned their heads and saw Blue walking through the entrance of the laser tag.

He was holding a crate in his big arms. He walked over to where the two were standing and placed it down, letting out a small grunt. He straightened himself up, fixing his crown before addressing the other two monsters.

"Hi guys." Blue said, "I brought you guys some food and stuff. Red said that we should give you some supplies to keep here for whenever you want to spend the night."

Yellow excitedly perked up at the mention of food, but Cyan raised an eyebrow, giving Blue a look that said, really?

Blue caught the look, "I promise we're not trying to get rid of you, it's just some extra supplies in case you need it whenever you're here," he told them.

"We know you're not trying to get rid of us." Yellow said, ignoring the look that Cyan cast him from where she was standing.

After a moment of silence, Blue suddenly seemed to have an idea. "Oh! I almost forgot, we have a present for you too." He said, walking back over to the laser tag door and letting it open.

Yellow and Cyan both gasped as a bunch of little ball shaped creatures rolled out. They had big googly eyes and the colors ranged through all the colors of the rainbow. As they rolled out, some of them went to the side, seeming to be aimlessly wandering, while others came right up to Yellow and Cyan.
