Cil's Point of View
I don't know how long we stood there, kissing. All I know is that we didn't stop until my cell rang. I answered it without checking the caller ID.
"H-Hello?" Cray started to kiss my neck, making me squeak.
"Hey, Cil." my step dad's voice rang out from the other line. "You need to get over to Raven's house. Kiki has information about Coraline and based on the anxiety Kiki is showing, it isn't good news."
"I'll get there as soon as I can. Do you know if PJ will be there?" I felt Cray stare at me.
"He will be but I don't think he's doing well. We need to comfort him as best we can."
"Of course. That's what families do."
"That's right. Get here soon, ok? We're waiting on you, Palette and those from the AUs before we start the meeting."
"I'll call him and we'll be there soon. I love you, Dad."
"I love you too, sweetheart. Be safe getting here." I hung up the phone and looked up at a very confused Cray. My hands went up to his chest and I pushed him back gently.
"I-I need to go." I tried to rush past him but he caught my wrist.
"You're just gonna leave like that? After what happened between us?" Light purple blush dusted his cheekbones. My mind was screaming at me to kiss him again but I couldn't. I had to get Palette and get to Raven's as fast as possible. Our brother needs us.
"I have to. There's a lot of things going on right now that you wouldn't understand. I'm sorry." I pecked his cheek and ran off, heading back to the school. As I ran, I tried to call Palette. But nobody answered.
When I made it to the school there was no sign of Palette or Goth. I swear to god if that damned skeleton hurt my brother there will be hell to pay. I racked my mind for the one place that the two of them would be if they were gonna talk. The library! My feet started moving as soon as the thought popped into my head but I didn't expect to see what I did when I got there.
My brother was pinned against the back bookshelf with Goth holding him up. That wasn't the surprising part though. What surprised me the most was what they were doing exactly. The librarian's pants were down and he was thrusting into my brother's ectoplasmic parts. Palette's pants and mewls resonated in perfect harmony to Goth's grunts. Honestly, I felt a bit sick. I never wanted to see my brother in that position. EVER. I ran out of the library and dry heaved into a nearby trash can. There was no way I was getting that mental image out of my mind.
I have no idea how long it was until Palette came running out of the library on shaky legs. It looked like he finally checked his phone. I stepped out from behind the lockers and held up my hand to Palette, who looked terrified. "I won't tell anyone. I won't do you dirty like that." Palette instantly relaxed. "But don't you dare think that we won't be talking about this later. This is just has to be a subject discussed behind closed doors." My brother nodded.
"Why... Why'd you call so many times?"
"Meeting at Raven's house. There's news about Coraline and it's not good. You know that PaperJam's gonna be beating himself up for this if she got hurt. He needs us."
"What are we waiting for then? Let's go!" Palette grabbed my hand and practically dragged me to Raven's house. This was going to be one hell of a meeting, I can already tell.

Third Person Point of View
There was a variety of skeletal monsters that resided in the black haired woman's home. Two families of four skeleton's, each one missing a member. In order to accommodate for the large group of people, the homeowner had moved the meeting place to the basement. There was more room to move around and less fragile items, lest someone break something in a fit of rage. They were all waiting on one specific group of people. Those they had sent off nearly two months prior.
There was a swish noise and a small, new group of skeleton's stepped into the room. The painter, the warrior, and the protector were the first to enter. They were followed by PaperJam, who looked distraught and the dark boned skeleton whom Cora referred to as, "The Puppetmaster." Error was holding a, still unconscious, skeletal child. The boy wasn't unconscious for long though.
There was an uproar of protest as soon as Error stepped through the portal. Various threats filled the air and this caused the child to wake from his slumber.
"Calm down, everyone. I understand this is confusing but there's a reason." The painter tried to reason with his companions but very few chose to listen. That is, until a high pitched scream bounced off of the walls.
"Y-Y-You! H-How did you find me!? What did you do with my friend," the youngest of the group screamed out. Jammy started squirming in Error's arms.
"I-i-InK. t-TaKe HiM." The boy stopped at the name and looked around.
"Ink?"
"That would be me." The creator of universes held out his hand to the boy.
"Oh, thank goodness! Cora sent me!" Jammy tried to hop out of Error's arms but was, unfortunately, too weak to hold himself up. The destroyer used his strings to hold up the boy.
"Kiki," the creator's alternate questioned. "Do you know exactly who this is?"
The painter shook his head, "No, I don't. He just appeared in the Doodle Sphere and I've decided to look after him."
"I kNoW wHo He Is. We JuSt HaVe MoRe PrEsSiNg MaTtErS."
"The pressing matter is that we have to get this boy some food and some descent clothing." The alternate Ink snapped at the destroyer, his motherly instincts kicking in. "Now I don't care if you act all high and mighty but if you even so much as ACT like you don't care about your son, then so help me God I'll-"
Silence.
