Part 2 ✖️ sagittarius and taurus

Cancers p.o.v

As soon as me and Aquarius had found each other things got better, just a little.

"I wonder if anyone else was stuck in here how long they've been here" he wondered out loud

"I don't wanna think about that" I said walking closely behind him. I didn't see the point in walking I feel like we weren't even moving because all you could see was grey and fog, but Aquarius insisted that we did so we could find anyone else. We had been walking for what felt like years but probably just days. I could never tell because there is no sky or light just grey. We continued to walk I never could loose Aquarius because of his antler as it glowed a wonderful blue. I really liked that since that was the only other colour I've seen here. I have dull black hair and my antlers were brown, I didn't know what colour my eyes were though.

"What colour are my eyes?" I asked him not keeping my thoughts to myself, he stopped and spun around peering into my eyes. I felt myself staring back into his glowing blue eyes matching his antler.

" light brown " he answered, I felt my cheeks growing hot, I think. Why am I so dull I don't want to be a part of this world.

"Your cheeks are... pink" he said pausing to think of the right colour, I frowned and lifted my hand up to my cheek. He must of been right because I was really warm. They felt so nice, they were warm better than cold.

We walked in silence for more hours until he spoke

"Cancer!" Aquarius voice snapped me out of my trance. I looked at him he was pointing to the right of him, I looked over and saw a pair of icy blue eyes looking at us

"Hello?!" A girls voice echoed from next to figure with the blue eyes

"WE ARE OVER HERE!" I screamed, it started to walk towards us and I saw there were two figures, a girl and boy. The girl had ram horns and long light brown hair, the boy with the icy blue eyes had white hair and long blue antlers.

"are you guys real?" The girl asked

"Yes, yes of course!" I said reaching out and touching her arm, she flinched and looked at me

"TAURUS WE FOUND PEOPLE!" She yelped happily, the boy she was with gave a smile and looked over at me and Aquarius

"What are your names" his voice was distant and soft

"I'm cancer and this is Aquarius" I introduced, Aquarius grinned

"I am Taurus and this is Sagittarius " he said, the girl Sagittarius smiled

"How long have you guys been here?" Aquarius asked carelessly. Both of their smiles fell.

" um we would rather not talk about that" Sagittarius said looking up at Taurus who was now giving a cold look. She sighed and hugged his arm, turning back to us

"Follow us" she said blankly, I nodded and gave Aquarius a glare

"What?!" He hissed

"Be a bit more careful with you words!" I whisper-yelled to him, he looked away from me, and ignored me from then on.

We walked for ages and ages, I wondered were they actually taking us anywhere

"We are here" Taurus said his voice a little warmer than before. I looked and saw a massive tree figure in the distance. I smiled

"Is it just you two?" I asked, Sagittarius turned round

" no there are others" she said catching my grin

"How many?" Aquarius said

"five but usually 4" she answered

"Libra is a searcher but he always goes on his own even though it's not very smart" Aquarius said excepting us to understand whatever he just said. I frowned as we now stood right in front of the tree. It was grey and old, the leaves looked to be brown and crusty. But it was something that wasn't just grey so that's a plus.

"Sagittarius ,Taurus?!" A girl fell out of the tree she had curly black hair and grey horns. Her eyes were a dark grey with almost a blue tinge to it.

"Hello Leo" Sagittarius smiled

"I though you guys were gone" she said "libra has returned once and didn't even talk to us" she said looking away. Sagittarius and Taurus looked at each other then back at Leo.

"When was he last here" Taurus asked

"About two storms ago" Leo answered

"Has he not been back since?"

"No"

I was beyond confused now who was libra and what is 'two storms ago' mean, maybe they don't use hours or days as time. My mind was racing.

"Who are they?" Leo said catching my attention,

"Aquarius and cancer" Aquarius called out, Leo studied us

"Welcome to hell?" She said almost like a question. My heart dropped, no I couldn't actually be in hell right? I had never done anything to bad not bad enough to get me to hell.

"She's joking" Aquarius sighed, Leo smiled

"Aquarius long long long time no see" she said

"You guys know each other?"
