Amy's POV (NIGHTMARE)
I was wandering through the snowy woods, the dim light barely providing anything to see by. I could feel something watching me from the shadows, but I couldn't see it yet. I stumbled over something in the snow, and looking down, I let out a shrill scream as the empty gaze of a dead, rotted human face stared back at me.
Scrambling backwards, I ran through the trees desperately, even as everything blurred together. Suddenly, I saw a familiar shape up ahead, clad in a black jacket.
"Snarl?" I called out, making him turn to face me- his fangs dripping with blood. I froze in place, having skid to a stop in the snow a few feet away form him. He let out a low growl, eyesockets glowing a dark red as he neared me. I backed up, but hit something. Looking up, I saw Yip right behind me, a severed human head hanging from his claws as he glared at me. I screamed as I felt something pierce my leg, looking down to see a glowing red bone poking through my leg.
I crumpled to the ground, whimpering as Yip and Snarl came closer, bones popping up around them and pointing right at me, before suddenly flying at me straight on.
I let out a shrill scream as they impaled me on the ground, blood seeping from my limp body.
Comic's POV
When the Human woke up screaming, it was enough to rouse even my younger brothers from their normally deep sleep. We sat upright as the Human curled in on herself, muttering soft enough we couldn't make out her words as tears streamed from her eyes. Snarl, as she called my twin, reached for her but she flinched violently, retreating into my lap and hiding her face in my shirt.
'What the hell? She's never reacted like this t'me b'fore, what's goin' on with 'er?' he asked.
'I don't know, bro. Maybe she had a bad dream or somethin', she woke up screaming.' I said, right as my younger brother that she was calling Yip reached for her, making her whimper.
'Do you...think she dreamed we were attacking her, Brother?' Yip asked quietly. He sounded nearly heartbroken at the thought of our Human having nightmares about any of us attacking her, which just went to show how much they'd grown to care for her in such a short timeframe.
I held her in my lap, cooing softly to try and calm her as I stroked her hair gently. She seemed to calm down enough to stop crying, and breathing calmly.
"Comic...c-can I sleep with you and Chirrup tonight instead..." she said in a small voice. I glanced up at my twin and younger brother, who had guilty looks on their faces. I gave the Human a small lick on her cheek before turning over, my back facing them as me and Chirrup curled around her. Within minutes, she was asleep again, clutching my shirt.
'We...really messed up, didn't we Bro...' Snarl sighed behind me.
'That just means we have to work that much harder to gain her trust, Brother.' Yip said. I felt pride in my brothers for realizing their mistakes had consequences, ones that they would have to fix themselves.
'Brother? Can we...can we use the names the Human called us? I...I rather like them, and it would make it easier for us to know who we're each talking to.' Chirrup's voice came from in front of me. I let out a reassuring growl.
'Already calling you guys by those names to myself, but if you want me to call you that whenever you want, I wouldn't mind. I kinda like her names for us too, Tibia Honest~' I chuckled, smirking to myself when I heard him let out a small groan at my joke.
'Besides. I think the Human picked out good names for us.....Chirrup.' It was dim in the cave, but I could still tell that my younger brother was beaming when I called him by his new name.
Wonder if she decided to call me Comic because of all my joke books in my chest...That reminds me, we should get her a chest of her own soon. I let out a yawn, nuzzling the sleeping Human in my arms.
