To Fix A Multiverse

Chapter 28

Blueberry nodded, frowning worriedly.

Cross opened a portal and followed them, waiting for Blue.

Vigour looked around confused when they were in a forest of some kind.

Blue jumped through the portal, still looking worried.

"Um.. you said you liked natural beauty so... Here you go!" Ink explained, trying to fake enthusiasm.

Vigour looked around before staring at Ink confused. "Really? Um... okay?"

"Wow. Ink's super awkward..." Blueberry mumbled from his spot in a tree.

"There's a feeding station nearby, maybe there are some animals there..." Ink explained, looking slightly down.

Vigour looked at Ink with worry for a moment before nodding. "Yeah. It sounds cool."

Ink nodded and started walking into a direction, taking care not to be too loud. He wanted to cry...

Blueberry dropped onto the floor soundlessly, frowning in concern.

"We have to do something.." He whispered to Cross.

"Do what?" Cross asked back, frowning at the sight. "What can we do to fix this?"

Blueberry huffed slightly.

"I don't know. They're both so stubborn..." He sighed, starting to follow them again. That was much easier in the forest than at that museum.

Cross thought for a moment, humming to himself silently.

Vigour walked through the forest silently, looking around to try and find something that looked cool. So far he'd found nothing. Maybe that animal feeding station had something-

He paused when a feeling pulled at his Soul. He turned his skull to the right where there was a path that lead somewhere through the thicket.

Ink turned around when Vigour stopped walking.

"Is something wrong?" He asked worriedly.

Blue looked towards what Vigour was looking at.

Vigour shook his skull. "I feel like we should go there." he said softly.

Cross tilted his skull in confusion. What was Vigour doing?

"Then let's go." Ink agreed.

"Am I the only one that thinks this is ominous?" Blue asked, his legs dangling off the branch he was sitting on.

Cross shrugged as he watched the duo begin walking down the path through the forest and into uncharted territory. "It's Vigour. What's not ominous about him sometimes?"

Blue chuckled slightly and nodded, sliding off the branch and following them.

Vigour walked down the path through the forest, something was pulling him to walk down this path but he didn't know what. He just knew that he should.

'Hopefully I'm not dragging Ink into a trap of some kind.' Vigour thought to himself as he ducked a low hanging branch. 'I don't want him to get hurt.'

Ink followed Vigour, looking slightly weary as he looked around.

"Are you sure this is a good idea?" He asked, moving a bit closer to Vigour.

"I'm not sure..." Vigour said softly as he walked down the darkening path. "I just... I have this feeling."

Ink nodded in understanding and kept following Vigour as the forest got thicker and a bit darker.
