Virgil and Deceit were the two loners of the Dark-Sides, it was always Deceit and Virgil. They went everywhere together. One day when Deceit and Virgil had been in the shady cafeteria they noticed something, or might I say someone quite bright lurking in the realm of Dark-Sides.

Virgil looked over at Deceit, trying not to raise any suspicion but this person was dressed awfully bright. "Dee... Do you know who that is?"

Looking over at the man dressed similar to a prince, Deceit smirked devilishly. "I do."

Virgil's expression went flat and said nothing when he realized that the guy was walking towards them. When Virgil noticed he was still staring at him he turned around and continued to eat.

Not a second later the man dressed like a Prince leaned on their table with a cocky smirk. "So, what Dark-Sides do we have here?"

Virgil just groaned and rolled his eyes, he simply pointed to Deceit and said just that and then he laid his head on the table and said "Anxiety."

The Prince's eyes light up when he heard Anxiety. "Well Brendon Worry, I'm Roman, Thomas' Creativity. Don't you have a name?"

Virgil picked up his head and glared at Roman. "Yes." He then looked at Deceit with this look that was saying We need to go.

Roman smiled expectedly. "Well, can I know it?" That's when Deceit and Virgil stood with a bit of a chuckle.

"Listen Prince of Pride, If you think you can just waltz down here and get whatever you want, you're wrong. Go back to your palace Princey."

"Wait!" Virgil ignored him and grabbed Deceits arm as they hurried down the Dark Corridors. A few moments later they made it to Virgil's room, for a Dark-Side it was awfully bright and that's why he never let anyone inside but Deceit.

Virgil's room was painted a dark purple that gave off a black shadow and all of his accessories were black, he had twisted fairy-tales and the books were black along with the shelf and he had a short spider web hanging from it. He also had a black couch with a tiny black cat pillow and his bed had a black sheet with dark purple blankets. His dresser was of course, black.

"That was close..." Virgil turned to lock the door, once he did he simply slid down the door and sat on the floor in front of it.

"Hey Virgil?"

Virgil looked up at Deceit curiously. "Yes?"

Deceit sighed and threw himself on Virgil's bed. "What if Roman didn't want something, or what if he didn't need something. There shouldn't be a reason why he's down here."

Virgil chuckled, and he thought he was supposed to be the worrier. "Dee, if he needed something he'd-"

Before Virgil could even finish his sentence there was a knock at the door, causing Virgil and Deceit to jump. No one ever came to Virgil's door...

Virgil slowly stood and opened the door only a crack so he could see who it was.

Roman noticed the door barely open and he put his hands on his hips and rolled his eyes. "Oh come on Panic! At the Everywhere, I'm not gonna hurt you just let me explain why I'm here."

Virgil slammed the door shut and quickly looked back at Deceit, fear striking through the both of them. "What do I do?"

Deceit shrugged and gestured toward the door. Virgil sighed, knowing all too well what Deceit had meant.

This man is literally the embodiment of Pride, he won't go away unless I do something...

So Virgil opened the door, immediately glaring at Roman. "What do you want?"

Roman smirked and crossed his arms, seeming owning his victory. "Well it's about time Mr. Sunshine."

Virgil inhaled deeply as his expression dropped dramatically. "Stop it with the small talk and the nicknames, what the hell do you want?"

"Alright fine..." Roman's expression grew careless as he examined his nails. "Logic wants to see you, and before you even say anything, no your pet snake can't come. He asked for you and only you."

Virgil looked back at Deceit, both of them were shocked. Why Logic? Why now? And What did he want?

Virgil sighed with a nod. "Fine... I'll go but we're coming right back."

Roman smiled and grabbed Virgil by the wrist as he attempted to skip down the dark corridors. "Yay! He'll be so happy!"

Virgil pulled his wrist out of Roman's grip and grimaced. "Touch me again and you won't have a hand got it!"

Deceit just stood there, he knew there was no other choice in the matter but it all still felt wrong. Just to let his best friend falter to the light-sides like that...
