Roman’s Pov

I was going through my closet when I came across an old white shoe box. Curious I brought it over to my bed and lifted the lid off. Tears started forming as I saw the contents. I grabbed a picture of Remus and I drawing together, a picture of us playing with wooden swords under that one. We looked so happy together. I remember being attached at the hip when we were little. I continued to look, seeing a group photo. Remus and I were in the middle Virgil to my right clinging to Janus, Logan sitting next to Remus with Patton next to him. What happened to us? We use to be so happy together...then those three left...why?

I peeked around the corner with Remus and Virgil to see Patton and Janus talking.

“You need to leave Deceit. All three of you do.”

“Why? What have we done?”

“You’re hurting Thomas! Anxiety’s giving him constant anxiety. Dark Creativity with his sick thoughts. And you with your constant lies. It’s not good for Thomas, you guys aren’t good for Thomas.”

“So you’re kicking us out? That’s messed up Morality!”

“I’m doing what’s best for Thomas.”

“What about the twins? You’re going to separate them after you split them in the first place.”

“He is corrupting Creativity!”

“No you are. If want us to leave then fine we will. Goodbye Morality.”

“Quick run!” I whispered and we ran to Remus and I’s room.

We sat down on the bed.

“Are they going to split us Ro?”

“I won’t let them Re I promise,” I pulled the two younger sides into a hug, “I won’t let them take you two.”

“A'm I bad for Thomas? A’m I hurting him?”

“No of course not Anx. You’re just helping in your own special way.”

“Anxiety, Creativity...I need to talk to you two…”

I stood up in front of them facing the scaly side.

“You aren’t taking them! I won’t let you!”

“I don’t have a choice… I don’t want to guys but I don’t have a choice...I’m sorry.”

I blinked snapping out of the flashback. I looked back down at the box digging through it. I pulled out a red paper crown with green gems. The crown Remus made for me before he was forced away...I wonder if he still has his… I stood up and walked out of the room crown in hand to the memory room. I scanned the dates stopping on the day they left.

“NO! You can’t take them!”

“Kiddo it’s going to be ok.”

“No! Remus please don’t leave me!”

“Deceit please I don’t want to go!”

“I’m so sorry boys…”

“Let go Morality!”

“Morality are you sure this is the right thing to do?”

“Of course kiddo. This is for Thomas.”

“Dee I’m scared…”

“It’s going to be ok Anx...everything will be ok.”

They sank out and I collapsed to the ground.

“NO! Come back! Please come back!”

Morality let go walking away while Logic wrapped me in a hug.

“It’s ok Creativity, everything’s going to be ok.”

“I want him back...I want my brother back…”

“I know...one day, one day…”

I stared at the memory as it started to replay.

“Roman? What are you doing in here?”

I put the memory back quickly wiping my eyes before turning to the new voice in the room.

“Just looking at something my be speckled friend! What are you doing in here?”

“I came to sort through today’s memories like always.”

He walked over seeing the date I had open and freezing.

“Why were you looking here?”

 I sighed, “I found a box of old stuff from Remus and I and wanted to remember the real reason they left….” I held up the paper crown, “They’re not the bad guys...we are for shunning them just because they’re different… What kind of prince am I if I judge the book by it’s cover.” 

I was caught off guard by Logan hugging me.

“It’s ok Roman, everything’s going to be ok.”

“I want him back...I want my brother back…”

“I know...one day, one day…”
