My Emo Nightmare

With Great Power... Comes a Heartfelt Conversation

Yeah I have no idea what I was thinking for the title so I'm sorry....

Logan's pov
I looked over the slightly cryptic note again as we started walking towards the castle. Why does everyone insist on keeping secrets?

It wasn't until just recently that I realized Patton had lost someone before. That's why I need to be with him and keep him safe.

Princes pov
"Sir? The master has been looking for you. He says it's a matter of urgency." The maid called.

I winced as she opened the door before I had a chance to hide.

"Sire, if you would please come with me?" She asked

I walked over and grabbed her hands, "I would be forever in your debt if you could do me a favour first, my lady."

She pulled her hands back, "I think you'll find it hard to convince me to in that way, as I don't like the opposing gender." She crosses her arms but gave me a sympathetic look, "However what was your request, if you don't mind me asking."

"I just want to see some of the people we moved from the edge of the dark mind."

She sighed, "I'm not supposed to even be talking with you, since that's a violation of the Master's code of conduct. But.... there might be a chance I accidentally drop a map of the castle and maybe I accidentally forgot I saw you."

"Does this come at a price?"

"Yes, pardon my rudeness but when I die in this war, which I'm almost certain I will, donate all my organs to those in need. Except my middle finger, save that for the motherfucker I'm cleaning up after." She smirked as she begrudgingly grabbed a folded towel and walked out of the room, closing the door.

I unfolded the paper she conveniently dropped and looked for any place marked as a waiting room or prison, anything.

I finally found a small square room at the opposite end of the castle labeled, "Trait containment."

I quietly opened the door and looked out before swiftly running to the room a little further down that same hallway. Surly I can try to free these traits as I wait for my friends to save me.

I just hope Deceit doesn't lockdown the whole castle. Even thinking his name makes me shiver.

Anxiety's pov
"Anx, do you think you could maybe slow down a bit?" Patton asked in between breaths.

I paused briefly, "Morality," it felt weird calling him that but since we aren't in the house I need to, "...we need to get to Prince, as much of a stupid self centered bitch he is, he might be dying and we don't know what that means for Thomas."

Pat frowned but turned to Logan, "Hey Lo, do you think you can do that nifty time thingy so everything around us stays as it is?"

Logan adjusted his glasses, "I'd be more than willing to attempt, but... what if everyone's frozen like last time?" He whispered almost to low for me to hear.

Patton reached for his hand and whispered something.

They are so fucking adorable.

Logan sighed and closed his eyes. For a second it was dark, then I came back to reality, stumbling forward. Logan caught me, "Are you okay?"

"Yeah just lost my balance for a bit." I mumbled. I glanced around, "Why isn't Patton moving?"

"Just give me a moment." He pinched the bridge of his nose, "Patton said something before and it's sort of hard to focus now."
