Little RaabDust

(CHAPTER 5) Possession and Belief

Kens' POV

Once again, I'm at the hospital. I've been getting weird cramps.

"We are going to have to do a urination test. Mr. Dreemurr can you leave the room for a few minutes?" Nurse Bluecat said politely. Gray nodded and left the room twiddling his thumbs.

Gray's POV

I paced the waiting room impatiently waiting for the results. Then a smile formed over my shadow. I gasped at the sight of the being.

"Hello brother. You have my condolences for Kens." They said mockingly. (Me talking to them was in my head, obviously.)

"How did you fowwow us?" I asked. Harca rolled their eyes as if it was obvious.

"When I vaporized the lower half of your body, it obviously became an open wound. I entered it, and now, I possess half of your soul." They said picking food out of their teeth with a knife.

"I swear to Asgore, if you huwt Kens, I will wip you fwom this dimensional pwane of existence, and no one will wemember you." My eye was glowing an intense purple. Harca laughed.

"You can't do anything to stop me. The Genocide Era has begun." They disappeared back into my shadow. Nurse Bluecat opened the door. I ran up to her.

"Is Kens ok?" I asked. Nurse Bluecat looked a little worried.

"Um... yes and no. Come inside." I followed her into the room. "We did a few tests... Kens is pregnant." I started to cry tears of joy.

"What's the bad news?" I asked. It was the nurse's turn to cry.

"She's to young to have a baby. When... it's time for it to come out... it might get stuck. Putting both... at risk, most likely... to kill both..." I started to frown. Then I did something I hadn't done in a while. I started to melt. I fell on the floor. Coughing and spluttering black blood. Literal pieces of me started to drip off my body. I felt the nurse trying to pick me up, but her arms went right through my body. Once a pulled myself together I apologized.

"Sowwy. That's my vewsion of intense sadness. The mewting in my owgans is the worst..." then I noticed that Kens was awake and aware of what just happened. We hugged each other for a long time. I felt a weight being lifted off my shoulders.

"I'm sorry. I didn't think snuggling would cause this." Kens said wiping a purple tear from my cheek.

"It's fine. If I'm going to be a dad, I want it to be with you." I said smiling at the most beautiful skeleton in the multiverse.

"How are we going to tell Mom and Dad?" Kens asked.

"We'll tell them in English." I said. Kens rolled her eyes. I placed my paws on top of her hands. Despite being bones, I could feel warmth and serenity radiating off of them.

"We'll tell them. We will face it together, no matter what." We hugged again and we were pardoned to walk home. As we walked out the doors, we were greeted by Doriel, Asgade and Nik. We told them the news. I wouldn't do it any other way.

???'s POV

The evil sibling has moved on to a new host. I want to help. But not yet... it's not the right time. I'm pretty sure I know who Harca moved on to. But I can't help but wonder... what is their plan?

FOURTY-THREE WEEKS LATER...

Gray's POV

Ever since Grayson had been born, he has been quite the handful. Kens had been in the hospital for the last three weeks due to loss of so much blood. When I asked the nurse, how can a skeleton bleed, they said 'Monster Logic'. So for the past three weeks, twice a week, Doriel has been donating blood to her. I would be the one to donate blood, but... my condition in blood wise... is not so good. I held Grayson in my arms and I had a ready made bottle. I sat down on the couch and started to feed Grayson. As he sucked on his bottle, he snuggled into my chest.

"though you are quite the trouble maker, you are to cute for your own good." I said kissing their forehead. I took them upstairs and sat them in their crib. Grayson falls asleep so easily...I walked out of the room quietly. As I walked into the hallway, my body started to liquify slowly.

"K-keep it t-together..." I held on to myself, trying to prevent anymore melting. I walked to my room and started to cough up blood. Keep it together... I can't help it if I'm my own personal disease... I must hold it together. I slowly started to reform and fell asleep on the floor.

~•••••~

The next day I decided to go and visit Kens. I grabbed Grayson and asked Mrs. Raabster if she could take me to the hospital to visit Kens. When I walked into Kens' room after walking through the maze like hospital, Kens looked at me and Grayson. I walked in and let her hold our son. When I felt like I had to cough, I looked away and coughed into a tissue.  When I did, black blood came out. No no no no! Not here... I threw the tissue away. Kens stared at me.

"What was that?" Kens asked questioningly. I smiled.

"Nothing important." After I said that, Kens gave me a face as if she had been smacked.

"Of course it's important. Tell me now." I sighed. She would get the answer out of me sooner or later. Might as well be sooner.

"I have a sickness. It was bown when I was bown. It can't be twansferred or infect others. But their awe five stages. Fiwst stage is the common cold and bwood discowowation. Second stage is mewting duwing emotional moments. Thiwd stage is the uncontwowable coughing up blood. Fouwth stage is weakening bones and the coughing up of blood wowsens. That stage is the longest lasting. Final stage is Void Cardiac Awest, or VCA. Same as cardiac awest, but it's like fawing into the void. No one remembers you. The stages are like building bwocks. They need each other in order to worsen. I'll be wucky if I wive to 30..." I said sadly. Kens just stared at me.

"What stage are you in right now?" Kens asked hopefully. I lowered my head. I can't bear to look at her right now.

"Stage 4." I said. Kens grabbed me and held me tightly.

"Then you aren't leaving my sights." Kens said. I picked up Grayson with my magic and sat him in the crib across from the hospital bed. I gently traced my paws against her feet.

"Is that so, Marshmallow?" Kens was giggling like crazy. Then I started play nibblingz her neck.

"Hnng! Pfft - HAHAHAHAHA! Sto-hahaha-ahp!" She said laughing like crazy. I grabbed her hand this time. I looked into her eyes.

"I will never weave you. I wove you to much." And we fell asleep, side by side.
