This song does not belong to me, it belongs to NyxShield and Jakei. I'm only using this to help the plot of my story. 

=========================

"Uncle?" Dream questioned. He couldn't deny that Quertz did look like him a little bit. "I didn't know I had an uncle." He mumbled a little.

Quertz expression fell. "Nim never mentioned me before..." He said disheartened.

Dream gave Cross an awkward look before he answered. "No... she didn't."

Quertz however soon put a smile back on. "Well that makes sense." Quertz sighed. "Wait aren't you suppose to be inside your kingdom!" Quertz exclaimed. "I got to get you home!"

Dream and Cross both began shaking their heads. "No, no you don't!" They both exclaimed.

Quertz ten raised the question. "But why are you out?" Quertz looked thoughtfully.

Cross looked off to the side. "Cross got poisoned by something." Dream answered. "Can you help him?"

Quertz nodded. "Of course I can. I'm the King of Life after all!" Quertz said happily. "Lets see what were dealing with."

Cross retracted his hand with the bandage on. Dream took hold of Cross hand though. Looking at it.

Quertz eyes widened. "Oh gee golly. We better get you a cure and fast." Quertz said urgently. "You two better follow me quickly." Quertz said before running through a bush.

The two realised that he wasn't wearing shoes. Quertz ran through. Dream also ran afterwards as well, with the same enthusiasm. Cross face palmed. But either way followed the man child and his prince. Taking much more careful steps.

They came across a small clearing. It was vast and open. Flowers dominated the grass. They were everywhere. Their bright colours glistening in the never moving sun.

And their it was the golden willow tree... it looked exactly like the one back at the castle. The one where the two had first met. Upon seeing the tree, Cross and Dream both instinctively looked at one another, happiness was what they felt when they looked at one another.

Quertz went other to the willow tree. "Right the cure you seek is up in the leaves." He did jazz hands up there. "But... it won't come to you without the sound of music." Quertz then reached inside his scarf. Pulling out a flute. "Any of you play music?" He also pulled out a guitar.

"Yes." The two answered in unison.

"Awesome!" Quertz exclaimed, chucking the instruments towards the two.

Dream caught the two of them. "Be careful! You could of hurt Cross' hand more!" Dream scolded Quertz who then averted his gaze. "Your hands okay though right?" He asked before handing the guitar other.

Cross nodded. "It'll be fine soon." Cross looked down at it. It stung a little, but nothing to bad. Cross sat down on the ground then, with the guitar in his hands. "Any song suggestion?" He inquired, looking at Dream who had sat down next to him.

"No, not in particular. How about you?" Dream wondered.

Cross winked. "Just follow my lead." He smiled, before strumming his fingers with the string.

(Play le song please :))

A musical melody soon began to form. Cross keeping the bass melody and Dream following along. The golden willow tree's vines began to part away slowly and gracefully, keeping in time with the music that the two were playing. So much so some flowers even began sprouting from the vines. Red and white roses along with golden daffodils.
