Roman's Influential Orb

The Triplets

Virgil meets the triplets.

Sensitivity and Virgil had been at it for hours but finally picked the correct outfit that they were both happy with.

"Thanks, Virgil. Now when he gets back you have to make sure he wears it, okay?"

"Yeah. It'll be a shame if he doesn't after the work we put in."

"Hell yeah! And by the way, you have 5 hours left on the clock."

"What?"

"You forgot about the hourglass?"

"Yeah..."

"Welp. You have five hours left. Use them wisely. Only confidence, The demon and a few fragments left."

"Why do you call him The demon?"

"You don't wanna know... Now ba-bye~"

Sensitivity disappeared into Romans mind and left Virgil feeling very alone in the hallway. There was no-one around. No Patton, Logan, Stage Performance or otherwise. Romans sides were each nice but they had some pretty big flaws. He did enjoy their company though and didn't want to be alone. Especially at a time like this. Sensitivity had told him were to find Confidence but he didn't really know if he could stand up to him. Roman had to have a lot of Confidence and Virgil didn't know what he could say to convince him to go back into the mind.

"Hello." Three voices spoke in unison.

"Who are you guys?" Triplets?

"I'm Dancing, the one to my right is Hand Gestures and the one next to him is Sleep Walking." He said with gusto.

"I told you to tell people our actual names our titles are too long." Sleep Walking complained.

"Fine. I'm Diante." He sounded annoyed.

"I'm Laura." Hand Gestures interjected.

"And I'm Cloud." Sleep walking yawned.

They were each a little different with Laura and Cloud looking about 5 while Diante looked 16. Roman must have started dancing when he was 16. Cloud was wearing a night-cap and looked ready to fall asleep at any moment. Diante wore a dancing costume and Laura kept it simple.

"So are you coming back?"

"To Romans mind? Yes!" Cloud was very enthusiastic.

"Nope." Diante seemed just as enthusiastic.

"Meh." Laura said.

"Why don't you want to go back, Diante?"

"Uh, Cause Roman never dances and this way I can, duh." Diante was like a thundercloud surrounded by fire.

"If I convince him to dance. Then will you?"

"Of course. Though I want one last dance before I combine again."

"You have time. I have to confront Confidence and The Demon yet."

"Well, good luck with The Demon." They just happened to say in unison.

"Okay, thanks. Bye Diante, Laura and Cloud. I will see you later."

"Bye." They all said together.

As Virgil continued to walk towards where Confidence was hidden, he couldn't help but feel anxious. All the others were easy. You just agree to give them what they want and they'll happily go into the mind. But what does Confidence want? What is his goal? Will he ever know?
