Truths Hide In Shadows

Epilogue

Xcellence helped Halluciv back to Marvul's house, to which he was waiting there with wide and slightly scared eyes.

The two Esclipses knew instantly... Marvul finally knew why they were cut up and limping back to his house...

And they figured out how the taller twin found out when they entered the living room.

A brood, exteremly tall man was sitting on Marvel's couch with a smaller male on his lap. This male looked so similar to X... Even down to the glowing scar under his eye.

"Cross?" The taller brother whispered.

Cross gave a small smile, shrugging as if to say hello.

The large male cleared his throat, bringing everyone's attention to him.

"I've heard what happened." He grumbled in a demanding voice... A voice that told you not to piss him off. "I'm glad that the item was found, worried about the fact that Fresh has it now..."

Cell spoke up quickly, not really sure if he would actually be listened to.

"Nightmare, sir," He could only guess that this monster of a Great One would be Nightmare. "How was Fresh able to shapeshift? I thought none of the-"

"Yes. None of the original Kings knew how to shapeshift, but Fresh... He is a literal parasite... He takes on any form he can just so he could get what he wants. He holds no care who has to die just so he can win this damn war."

There was a growl in Nightmare's voice, a sneer forming on his lips. Quickly, Cross spoke to Night in some old version of Spanish. Old enough that Cross's brother actually didn't know what he was saying.

Whatever he said calmed the Great One, who merely huffed in annoyance.

"Fine." He grumbled, probably to whatever the little human said.

The room was silent for a short while, till Cross piped up.

"Oh, Lucy, we told your brother, since he kind was starting to freak out." A soft giggle left the slightly oblvious male. "He thought you were in some form of trouble because Nighty looks terrifying."

Lucy lightly chuckled as he took a seat, he being weaker than X at the moment.

The Great One rolled his eyes, as he lightly placed his chin on the younger's head.

"I'm sorry that I lost the item..." The Solar sighed softly, looking down some.

The boss shook his head, taking a deep breath.

"It wasn't your fault... I doubt you even knew you had the item..." He took another deep breath as he lifted his head up. "But the item is no longer important... We have to find the Guardian before Fresh... Or else we really won't have any chance of beating him."
