The Sun and Moon Cross Paths

Blueberry Joins the Fight

"Ack!" Dream grunted getting thrown to the ground. Ink giggled, "Wow! You really are rusty at blocking and dodging, you must suck at fighting too!" Ink smiled. Dream pouted, "Well I'm sorry that I've been stuck in stone!" Dream huffed.

"Maybe point out what Dream is doing wrong?" Khole suggested, "Mhh...okay then!" Ink smiled, walking over to Dream, helping him up to his feet. "Well, you're getting better at using magic and such, it's just you!" Ink said.

"Me?" Dream questioned, "Yeah! Your shield is perfect, both your bone magic and the magic Khole been teaching you is just fine, the only problem is the holder," Ink said

"When you hold a shield and I come and put an impact on your shield, you always stumble back, losing your guard on me, making it easy to find an opening to put you to your feet! We don't want that! If your gonna fall then you do not need a shield! You have to be...what the word?- HARD!" Ink smiled, "Like a bolder! You have to hold your ground so it's harder for me to push you to the ground!" Ink smiled.

"Oh...I see!" Dream said, "Good! Now, let's try again! From the top, then we can take a break!" Ink smiled. Dream nodded and got into a stance.

His legs were spread out and bend down as he held onto his spear. A bright yellow shield was summoned. "Right! Let's start!" Ink held tightly on his brush. Khole smiled a bit concerned about how'd this go.

Ink charged at Dream as he gripped tightly, holding onto his stance as he strained his muscles. Ink slapped his brush on his shield as Dream stumbled a little. Ink saw this and quickly side kicked his feet, making Dream lose his balance and fall to his back

Dream groaned as Ink chuckled. Ink threw paint on Dream face with his brush as he was suddenly in chains, "H-Huh?!" Dream exclaimed. Khole wasn't sure what Ink was doing. Ink picked Dream up before attaching him to a tree. "You will stay here for an hour!" Ink smiled

"Why are you doing this to master?" Khole asked, "Diligence! I'll be throwing random stuff at Dream, so next time he'll remember the consequence!" Ink smiled.

Khole wasn't sure about this kind of teaching, "Maybe a positive punishment would work better," Khole suggested. Ink hummed, "I'll try it!" Ink smiled. Ink painted a tomato to his hand before throwing it at Dream face, "I believe in you!" Ink smiled.

Dream sighed as Khole chuckled...but that wasn't what Khole meant...

"Um...well, while you do this, do you know any friends that might help us Ink?" Khole asked. Ink hummed, painting another tomato, "...Yeah! I know someone! They're down for anything in the name of justice!" Ink smiled.

Ink took his paintbrush and painted a portal, "This portal will lead you to their AU, their name is Blueberry" Ink smiled. Khole nodded, "I'll be back!" Khole said. Ink nodded before turning back to Dream, "You have the potential of getting better!" Ink smiled, throwing the tomato at Dream.

Khole went through the portal to see a grassy town. It was underground though. It seems they haven't escaped yet. Khole walked over to one of the townspeople. "Do you know of a person named Blueberry?" Khole asked.

They nodded with a smile, "They're down the street! One of the biggest houses here!" they said. Khole nodded, "Thank you for the direction!" Khole smiled as they went on their way.

The person chuckled as they went along with their day.

Khole soon found the biggest house before knocking on the door and waiting for a few seconds. A skeleton opened the door, "...Huh?" the skeleton was tall, and wearing an orange hoodie. "Hello!... My name is Khole, Dream apprentice," Khole explained

The skeleton rose a brow, digging into their hoodies pocket, pulling out a honey bottle, "Names Swap...some people call me Carrot or Cheeto," Swap said, drinking from the bottle.
