One-Shots

Rythna

Duncan's POV: boom. That's the last sound I heard before I blacked out. I woke up to someone shaking me and an oddly familiar voice..... Rythian! " h-huh...wuhh.... R-Rythian? W-what happened, a-and where am I?!" I asked shakily. "You're at BlackRock, I heard a really loud noise and I went to go check it out, found your castle exploded and found you on the ground a few meters away and thought you might need help. What exploded anyways? Too many computers in the same room? Accidentally set off a nuke? Or some other science mess?" He asked. "Uhh..... C-computers overloaded, went boom, blacked out" I said, still pretty shaky. " lie down and rest, your still in shock from the explosion." He said almost gently. "K-Kay" I answered then fell back to sleep. -2 hours later-
Zoey's POV: I hope those 2 can get along, otherwise this saving Duncan thing won't end well. Ooohhh!!! I know!! I should lock them in a room together!! Then I only let them out if they get along!! Perfect!! *small evil un-Zoeylike laugh* " hey guys!! I have something that I want to show both of you!! Follow me please!!" I said excitedly. "Coming Zoey!" They said in sync, then scowled at each other. I walked down to my little lab, in which I had a dungeon just in case. "In here" I told them, motioning for them to come in. Then I ran out, shut the door and locked it. "Hey!!! What are you doing Zoey??!!" Duncan yelled. "You 2 are not getting out until you can get along without glaring at each other!! " I said. "Oh, and the walls are magic and science proofed. " I finished. Rythian and Duncan groaned at the same time, then glared at each other. "Well, looks like you guys have a long way to go!!" I say, happily skipping away to my mushrooms. "Duncan's POV "well then, Rythian, we better figure out a compromise or we won't be getting out of here." I said hesitantly. "Your right, and I know that it may be possible." Rythian said back, kinda surprising me. "You know, I used to do science and I still know a lot about it, I only hate it because of a very bad incident with it....." Rythian told me. "What happened?" I asked him curiously. "Why do you think I wear a mask all the time Duncan?" He asked. "Why do you answer my questions with more questions? " I asked him. "You just did too, after I answered your first question with a question, you answered the question that I answered with another question. Wait, what??!! I lost myself there... " he laughed. "Now, ummm....... Rythian..... Can you show me what's underneath your mask....?"I asked hesitantly. "Well....... Ok, I suppose you sorta deserve to know." He answered, and slowly untied his mask. Underneath was many purple and black scars, going from the bottom of his face up to above his mouth. I unwillingly gasped as he revealed it. "Zoey is the only other person who has seen these so don't go wailing around telling everyone." He said seriously. "Got it" I said back, unconsciously moving closer to him. He seemingly moved unconsciously towards me too. For some reason we were moving closer together every minute. Now we were at the point where our sides were touching, and I had a strange urge to do something dangerous. I went with my gut and........ Kissed him. Our lips met and a very surprised Rythian hesitated, then kissed back. The world slowed down to just us, sitting on the stone floor, together. After what seemed like hours, we pulled apart and stared at each other. "Whoa......That was..... Unexpected......but, for some strange reason i kind of maybe sorta definitely.... Enjoyed it." Rythian said slowly, voice pitched a bit lower. "Ummm........ Yeah...." I muttered slowly. "So, could we maybe....... Be friends again?" I asked him. "Yeah, that would be good." He said back. Then Zoey came skipping down the stairs towards us. "So? Can you two get along now?" She asked bouncing up and down. "Of course we can. We're friends again. "Rythian said happily. "Ok, come on out!! " she said unlocking the door. We walked out hand in hand, which Zoey gave a strange look at, then skipped away. I smiled at Rythian and He smiled back underneath his mask. We walked away, ready for a new start.
