As you slowly got out of the car you looked at your companions, they had some sinister about them. One grabbed you by the arms while the other proceeded to grab your legs. They weren't wasting any time in getting rid of you. Right before they could throw you over a familiar voice yelled at them to stop. It was Yoshax and this time he was showing his actual form. "I think you have something that belongs to me." He stated coldly. "Put them down or things will have to get messy." He threatened. Your companions took his threat as a joke and proceeded to tease him or at least try to. "And what are you gonna do? Haunt us forever? Ohh I'm so scared!" They laughed along with each other. He decided to play along with their stupid little game. "Your right, my oh my what ever will I do?" He acted dramatically like it was a play. "Well for starters I could bust your knee caps, or maybe crush you like the pathetic butterflies you are... but I think I'd rather let the cops deal with you~" he smirked looking more like his old self with each passing minute, the version of him you hated. "Y-your bluffing! You can't hurt us!" "Oh but I can and will. Now put them down or else." He barked in demand. "Sure thing backo-" they said as they threw you over to a plummeting doom. "Whoops my hand slipped~" you heard screams as you where falling you were sure he'd done something to them but you were still falling and as your life flashed before your eyes you could only pray he'd save you like he promised. Right before you encountered your demise you had been engulfed in a portal witch dropped you onto a bed. Yoshax followed threw the portal, blood spatter all over his being. "Don't worry, remember the offer I made you about living with me? Well that's a thing now." "I- what- how's that possible.." "you tell me, you've seen what I can do and you still question reality." Right before you could reply someone burst into the room. They looked just like Yoshax except the bottom color of their flag and the star instead of a crescent. Once they noticed you it seemed they were at a loss for words. "Uh- please don't freak out ok? This is the human I was telling you about." Tears started to well up slightly in the other flaghumans eyes and Yoshax was quick to embrace them and try to sooth them. "Hay hay.. I know your worried about them but we'll find them soon okay?" You didn't understand what they were talking about so you decided to tug on yoshax's sleeve and ask. "Well.. I know I told you about that human my brother had.. they kind of ran off after a fight and have been missing for a few days now." "That's horrible!" You looked over to the flaghuman still with tears in their eyes. "Do you want a hug?" You asked solemnly and they accepted engulfing you in a much needed hug. You never thought much about yoshax's feelings you realized, you used to but after he betrayed you everything kinda just went downhill. "How about we go look for them?" You yawned after your sentence. "You've had a long day (y/n) you should rest." "But dAd! I'm not tired!" You said in a sassy tone witch got the other flaghuman to chuckle but Yoshax just gave you a disappointed dad glare. "Oh c'mon! How about we go look for them and if we don't find them then I'll sleep, deal?" the other flaghuman looked at Yoshax and said some things while you weren't paying attention. "Fine, (y/n) I'll take your deal." "Heck Yea! Okay let's go!" Blindly you skipped out of the room and accidentally ran into someone, they seemed to be another flaghuman. You knew when you apologized the look they gave you wasn't anything new, they'd dislike you and any of your kinda from the get-go no matter what you did. "ᴜɢʜ ᴀɴᴏᴛʜᴇʀ ᴏɴᴇ ᴏғ ʏᴏᴜ ᴘᴀᴛʜᴇᴛɪᴄ ᴄʀᴇᴀᴛᴜʀᴇs!?" "Ya'know Theres more people then countries right?" You replied back. "ʏᴏᴜ ʜᴜᴍᴀɴs ᴅᴏɴ'ᴛ ᴋɴᴏᴡ ᴡʜᴇɴ ᴛᴏ sʜᴜᴛ ᴜᴘ ᴅᴏ ʏᴏᴜ." "Nope!, thats why dramas a thing." "ʏᴏᴜʀ ᴀɴɴᴏʏɪɴɢ." "So is everyone else, nobodies ever not annoying." You and this flaghuman carried on a conversation for about 20 minutes. It appeared you broke some of the tension by letting them know you weren't some kind of snarky brat that believed they where entitled. Yoshax and the other didnt dare bother you or the other flaghuman while you two were talking but now that the conversation was over the shorter one ran to your side and demanded to know if 'he' hurt you. "Who?" You reply cocking your head to one side to show your confusion. "That flaghuman you where just talking to, that was Kefral he's not one to be kind." Yoshax stated blankly. "Well he seems just find if you let him know your not some kind of entitled brat." "Ehh.. entitled or not it's weird for him to not mind you." "Oh no he minds me you can tell that anyday, I've dealt with people just like him before." "Your ex-friends don't count." "Who said they did? You of all people should know that I knew a ton of toxic people." "Well yea.. but you weren't exactly friends or anything with them." "Well duh obviously, toxicity is bad and normally toxic people are to but that dosent mean some don't have reasons for being that way." "Well he dosent. I mean we had a good and honest family then this happened and everything fell apart." "Well maybe it was the fall the made him toxic?, I mean I couldn't ever imagine being alive one day then being slaughtered the next." Your words silenced the room, it was almost like nobody expected you to know what you knew.
