Monster Love (Eclipsa's Past)

Mistakes (part 2)

Ahh...only two more days and I'm OUTTA HERE! Haha, and BTW, I mean school. Now, carry on.

Hyacinthus froze in his tracks. 'The boss.' No, there was no way that he would want his assistance. Hadn't he learned from their previous experiences?

"Well, tell the boss no. I'm not going to help anymore with his crazy plans about destroying Mewmans. I-"

"Oh, yes, yes. Hyacinthus, I know that both of you hold a very complicated past, but that should be left behind. We have a more detailed plan now, unlikely to fail. Of course, if we have your assistance." Anubis held his hand out for Hyacinthus to shake.

Hyacinthus only looked in disgust and swatted his hand away. "No. We have our peace, isn't that what we all wanted? Why bother the Mewmans even more? You know the odds are against us!"

Anubis rubbed his forehead in frustration and sighed. "Alright Hyacinthus, I've already told you that we do have a chance of accomplishing our goals. The boss and I have had enough time to analyze the current standings. We figured out the Mewmans greatest source of weakness and we have worked on our weaknesses so we don't crumble as soon as we step out of the forest." He smiled, "All we need is your help."

Hyacinthus was snarled in disgust and started walking away. 

"Oh c'mon! We know your great ability to think through problems! You're a genius and everytime that we have lost, it was because we didn't listen to you! You know that right?" Anubis smirked. "The boss has a very special prize for you, IF you can help us..."

Hyacinthus stopped walking. 

"But if you don't, that's okay too. We can just figure this out on our own, and you can keep your 'peace.'" Anubis waved at his soldiers to move back to the base.

"Wait." Anubis stopped walking and looked back at Hyacinthus. "I...I'll help. But with two conditions."

Anubis smiled. "What shall that be, dear friend?"

Hyacinthus raised his head. "That if this plan was to fail, you will never ask for my assistance. EVER. And...this plan must not involve hurting the princess."

"He, you seemed to have developed a soft spot for the special princess. But, your conditions have been accepted. Now, hurry. The boss doesn't like waiting."

They traveled through the darkest and most difficult pasts of the forest. Along the way, the soldiers only joked around showing off their strengths and bravery. Anubis walked behind all of them with Hyacinthus, who seemed very uncomfortable.

No matter if they had great numbers of soldiers, with strength and bravery and what-not, he knew that Mewmans always found the way to outsmart them, usually through the not-so good ways.

About forty or an hour later (Hyacinthus lost track of time), they reached a part of the forest that he hadn't known existed. Apparently, ever since his last time of visiting, they had relocated their hideout. Thing was, it was so huge, so it wasn't really a "hideout."

It looked like a temple, all dedicated to monster history and legends. Waterfalls, statues, pillars with carvings. Floors with designs which illustrated past victorious fights, some which Hyacinthus thought were over-exaggerated. 

Soldiers stopped walking and parted to the sides to let their leader pass through. Anubis walked forwards and greeted the guards at the door, who opened the door to let him pass, though blocked the way for Hyacinthus.

"No no, let him in. Boss's orders."

The guards grumbled, but raised their spears and let him through. Hyacinthus rushed forward to avoid their pointy weapons.
